How many methylene groups are present in 2,4-dimethylhexane?

Chemistry

stepan [7]3 years ago
8 0
There are zero number of methylene groups in the substance 2,4-dimethylhexane. Methylene groups are the part of a molecule that contains a carbon atom that has a double bond or =CH. Looking at the structure of 2,4-dimethylhexane, you cannot see any carbon atom that has a double bond.

Answer:

Zero methylene groups

Explanation:

Hi, on one side you have the 2.4-dimethylhexane molecule as shown in the figure.

On the other side, you have the methylene group with the following structure:

=CH2

As can be seen there isn't any methylene group in the  2.4-dimethylhexane

Important: don't confuse the methylene group with the methyl group. Methyl group is -CH3 and there are two of them in this molecule.

The mole ratio of the reaction shows that equal volumes of hydrogen gas will be produced by the two reactions.

<h3>What is the mole ratio of a reaction?</h3>

The mole ratio of a reaction is the ratio in which the reactants and products of a given reaction occur for the reaction to proceed to completion.

The mole ratio of a reaction is also known as the stoichiometry of the reaction.

The equation of the two reactions are given below:

Mg + 2HCl \rightarrow MgCl_2 + H_2

Mg + 2CH_3COOH \rightarrow (CH_3COO)_2Mg + H_2 \\

From the equation of the reaction reaction, an equal volume of hydrogen gas will be produced by the two reactions.

Therefore, the mole ratio of the reaction shows that equal volumes of hydrogen gas will be produced by the two reactions.

Investigations were carried out in a science lab to explore the topic of chemical and physical changes. Investigation A Step 1.
ozzi

Answer:

Investigation B, Step 2

Explanation:

The <em>colour change</em> is a good indication of a <em>chemical change</em>. The sugar molecules were most likely changing into something else.

Investigation A, Step 1. <em>Wron</em>g. The dissolving of salt is a <em>physica</em>l process.

Investigation A, Step 2. <em>Wrong</em>. You simply boiled off the water (a <em>physical</em> process) and recovered the salt.

Investigation B, Step 1. <em>Wrong</em>. The dissolving of sugar is a <em>physical</em> process.

How can understanding atomic light help astronomers determine what planets are composed of?
GuDViN [60]

The most common method astronomers use to determine the composition of stars, planets, and other objects is spectroscopy. This process utilizes instruments with a grating that spreads out the light from an object by wavelength. This spread-out light is called a spectrum. Every element has a unique fingerprint that allows researchers to determine what it is made of.

The fingerprint often appears as the absorption of light. Every atom has electrons, and these electrons like to stay in their lowest-energy levels. But when photons carrying energy hit an electron, they can push it to higher energy levels. This is absorption, and each element’s electrons absorb light at specific wavelengths related to the difference between energy levels in that atom. But the electrons want to return to their original levels, so they don’t hold onto the energy for long. When they emit the energy, they release photons with exactly the same wavelengths of light that were absorbed in the first place. An electron can release this light in any direction, so most of the light is emitted in directions away from our line of sight. Therefore, a dark line appears in the spectrum at that particular wavelength.  

Because the wavelengths at which absorption lines occur are unique for each element, astronomers can measure the position of the lines to determine which elements are present in a target. The amount of light that is absorbed can also provide information about how much of each element is present.

Which of the following is chemically inert ( unreactive)?
IrinaK [193]

(C) neon (atomic number 10)

Explanation:

The atom that is chemically inert is Neon with an atomic number of 10.

An atom is chemically inert if it does not willingly take part in chemical reaction.

Atoms takes part in chemical reactions in order to attain a stable configuration as seen in the noble gases.

In the noble gases every enable level is completely filled with the appropriate number of electrons.

  • The noble gases are He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe
  • These elements do not react with others.
  • From the given option, Neon is a noble gas and therefore inert.
