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.

Jacob takes 7 classes, each 50.00 minutes long every day for the 5 day school week. How many hours per week does he spend in cla
Zina [86]

Answer: He spends 29.17 hours per week

Explanation:

1 class = 50mins

7 classes = 7 x 50mins = 350mins

For 5 days in a week, we have

5 x 350mins = 1750mins

Converting to hours, we have

1750 /60 = 29.17 hours

What is the velocity of a wave traveling north with a frequency of 75 hertz and a wavelength of
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

v = 450 m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

Frequency = 75 Hz

Wavelength = 6 m

Velocity = ?

Solution:

Velocity is the product of frequency and wavelength.

v = f × λ

v = 75 Hz ×  6 m

Hz = s⁻¹

v = 75  s⁻¹  ×  6 m

v = 450 m/s

Which of the following is not true of acids?
NeTakaya

Answer is: 2. dillute acids feel slipper.

1) Acids are corrosive is correct. For example hydrochloric acid (HCl) will react with most metals.

2) Dillute acids feel slippery is not correct. Bases, for example solution of sodium hydroxide feels slipery.

3) Acids have a distinctly sour taste is correct. For example, vinegar is mixture of acetic acid (CH₃COOH) and water (H₂O). Vinegar is colourless liquid with sour taste and pungent smell, freezing point of the vinegar is lower than glacial acetic acid.

4) Acids have more hydronium ions than hydroxide ions is correct. Because acid gives a lot of hydrogen cations (H⁺), pH (pH = -log[H⁺]) is lower than seven (acidic solution).

A 50.5 L flask contains 3.25 mol of an unknown gas at 288.6 K, what is the pressure of<br> this gas?
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

1.52atm is the pressure of the gas

Explanation:

To solve this question we must use the general gas law:

PV = nRT

<em>Where P is pressure in atm = Our incognite</em>

<em>V is volume = 50.5L</em>

<em>n are moles of gas = 3.25moles</em>

<em>R is gas constat = 0.082atmL/molK</em>

<em>And T is absolute temperature = 288.6K</em>

To solve pressure:

P = nRT / V

P = 3.25mol*0.082atmL/molK*288.6K / 50.5L

P = 1.52atm is the pressure of the gas
