<u>Answer:</u> The name of the given hydrocarbon is hexane.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given hydrocarbon has all the single bond between carbon and carbon atoms. Thus, this compound is considered as an alkane.

The IUPAC nomenclature of alkanes are given as follows:

Select the longest possible carbon chain.
For the number of carbon atom, we add prefix as 'meth' for 1, 'eth' for 2, 'prop' for 3, 'but' for 4, 'pent' for 5, 'hex' for 6, 'sept' for 7, 'oct' for 8, 'nona' for 9 and 'deca' for 10.
A suffix '-ane' is added at the end of the name.
If two of more similar alkyl groups are present, then the words 'di', 'tri' 'tetra' and so on are used to specify the number of times these alkyl groups appear in the chain.

Hence, the name for given hydrocarbon will be hexane.

Acetylene gas (C2H2) burns completely in the presence of oxygen gas (O2) to yield carbon dioxide

Luda [366]

A. The balanced equation for the reaction is

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

B. The volume of the oxygen gas required to burn 0.700 L of acetylene gas is 1.75 L

C. The volume of carbon dioxide gas produced is 1.4 L

D. The volume of water vapor produced is 0.7 L

<h3>A. Balanced equation </h3>

The balanced equation for the reaction between acetylene gas (C₂H₂) and oxygen gas (O₂) is given below

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

<h3>B. How to determine the volume of oxygen </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

Since the reaction occurred at standard temperature and pressure, we can thus say that:

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted with 5 L O₂.

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will react with = (0.7 × 5) / 2 = 1.75 L of O₂

Thus, 1.75 L of O₂ is needed for the reaction

<h3>C. How to determine the volume of carbon dioxide </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted to produce 4 L of CO₂

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will react to produce = (0.7 × 4) / 2 = 1.4 L of CO₂

Thus, 1.4 L of CO₂ were produced

<h3>D. How to determine the volume of water. </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted to produce 2 L of H₂O

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will also react to produce 0.7 L of H₂O

Thus, 0.7 L of H₂O was produced

Find the no. of atoms present in 40g of nitrogen gas at STP?

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

8.60 * $10^{23}$ atoms N2

Explanation:

We want to convert grams to moles and then moles to atoms.

First, we convert grams of nitrogen gas (which is N2) to moles. To do so, we need the molar mass of N2, which is just 14.01 * 2 = 28.02 g.

40 g N2 * $\frac{1 mol N2}{28.02 g N2}$ = 1.43 mol N2

Now, we need to convert moles to atoms by using Avogadro's number, which is $6.022*10^{23}$ :

1.43 mol N2 * $\frac{6.022*10^{23} atoms N2 }{1 mol N2}$ = 8.60 * $10^{23}$ atoms N2

Thus, the answer is 8.60 * $10^{23}$ atoms N2.

Research shows that the combination of __________ and __________ can reduce the risk of death in a collision by up to 80%

r-ruslan [8.4K]

The combination of seatbelts and airbags can reduce the risk of death in a collision by up to 80%.

The seatbelts help to keep the person in one position and prevent impact with the vehicle as the vehicle comes to a sudden stop. Moreover, the airbag increases the time of collision to reduce the impact experienced by the person. An increased time of collision greatly reduces the damage that is done to the body.
