<h3>Answer:</h3>

Saturated: i) 3-Methyloctane ii) Heptane iii) Propane

Unsaturated: i) Heptyne ii) Cyclopentene

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Saturated Hydrocarbons are those organic compounds which are saturated <em>i.e. </em>all the bonds between carbon atoms are single. In other words the bonds between carbon atoms are sigma bonds (formed due to head to head overlap of orbitals)

Examples of Saturated Hydrocarbons are highlighted in Red color in attached figure.

Unsaturated Hydrocarbons are those organic compounds which are unsaturated <em>i.e. </em>they contain either one or more than one double or triple bonds along with or without single bonds.. In other words one or more bonds between carbon atoms are pi bonds (formed due to side wise overlap of p orbitals)

Examples of unsaturated Hydrocarbons are highlighted in Blue color in attached figure.

Which is the balanced version of the half-reaction below?<br> H2S → S+H+

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

C. $H_2S\rightarrow S+2H^++2e^-$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given chemical reaction, it turns out possible to realize there is one sulfur atom on each side of the chemical equation but two hydrogen atoms on the left and one on the right, which means the latter must be balanced in agreement to the law of conservation of mass.

In such a way, by setting a 2 on H⁺, the reaction will be balanced:

$H_2S\rightarrow S+2H^+$

Now, we count the transfer electrons for sulfur from -2 to 0 as 2e⁻ on the right, which will match with the option C.

$H_2S\rightarrow S+2H^++2e^-$

Regards!
