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.

Answer:

b. 6.02 x 1023 molecules

Explanation:

The formula mass of ammonia is 14 + 1 × 3 = 17.

The number of moles in 27.6g ammonia is 27.6 ÷ 17 = 1.62 mol.

A mole is 6.02 × 10²³, so the number of hydrogen atoms in a 1.62 moles of ammonia is 1.62 × 6.02 × 10²³ × 3 = 2.93 × 10² atoms.

Which of the following best describes an orbital?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

a) a space in an atom where an electron is most likely to be found

Explanation:

Atomic orbital is the mathematical function which describes wave-like behavior of the electrons present in the atom.

It is used to calculate probability of finding the electron of the atom in any  region around nucleus of the atom. Atomic orbital is the physical region or a three dimensional space where the probability of finding the electron is more than 90% which also means that the space where an electron is most likely to be found. They are boundless space and have definite energy.

Option A best describes atomic orbital.
