Answer: carbonyl group C=O

Explanation:

Formaldehyde is an organic compound, it is the simplest form of Aldehydes. It formula is CH2O and has a carbonyl functional group, C=O. The general formula for adehydes is R-COH. The carbon atom is bonded to oxygen with a double bond and one of the two remaining bonds is occupied by hydrogen, and the other by an alkyl group.

One of the properties of adehydes is their solubility in water. The lower members (up to 4 carbons) of aldehydes are soluble in water due to H-bonding. Ofcourse the the higher members are not soluble in water because their hydrophobic long chains.

Aldehydes contain carbonyl group, therefore they undergo reactions like nucleophilic addition reactions, oxidation, reduction, halogenation.

Iron(II) sulfide has a primitive cubic unit cell with sulfide ions at the lattice points.

masya89 [10]

We have that the the density of FeS is mathematically given as

$\phi=2.56h/cm^3$

From the question we are told

Iron(II) sulfide has a primitive <em>cubic</em> unit cell with <em>sulfide</em> ions at the <em>lattice points.</em>

The ionic radii of iron(II) ions and sulfide ions are 88 pm and 184 pm, respectively.

What is the density of FeS (in g/cm3)?

<h3>Density</h3>

Generally the equation for the Velocity is mathematically given as

$V_c=a^3=(2\pi Fe^{2+}+2\pi S^{2-})^3\\\\Therefore\\\\V=a^3(2\pi*0.088+2\pi 0.184)^3\\\\V=16.98*10^{-23}\\\\Therefore\\\\\phi=n\frac{PFeion+PSion}{VNa}\\\\\phi=3*\frac{55.85+32}{16.9*10^{-23}*6.023*10^{23}}$

$\phi=2.56h/cm^3$

$\phi=2.56h/cm^3$

Is copper II chloride mixed with water an element, compound, or mixture? If it's a mixture is it homogeneous or heterogeneous?

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

1. mixture

2. Homogenous

Explanation:

Copper II chloride is a compound because it consists of elements that are chemically combined together. When a solute in this case, copper II chloride is mixed with water- a solvent, the result is a homogenous mixture.

Homogenous substances are formed when a solute and a solvent combine, resulting in a mixture with uniform properties. Mixtures can be separated using relevant separation techniques.

The most notable of these are known as the "six simple machines": the wheel and axle, the lever, the inclined plane, the pulley, the screw, and the wedge, although the latter three are actually just extensions or combinations of the first three.
