Which element is considered the foundation for making organic compounds

Chemistry
1 answer:
Rasek [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: Carbon

Explanation: Organic compounds are those made by carbon atoms that link to other carbon or elements such as nitrogen, hydrogen or oxygen with covalent bonds.

The presence of these compounds were associated with living things, because most of them are produced by plants or animals. However nowdays substances like polymers and other synthetically made molecules can also be considered as organic since they are made of carbon.

Jeffrey is on his skateboard and starts skating down a ramp. Ten seconds later he is travelling at
AfilCa [17]

Answer: 2m/s^2

Explanation:

Velocity of skateboard = 20.0 m/s.

Time taken = Ten seconds (10 s)

Acceleration ​= ?

Recall that acceleration is the change in velocity of a body per unit time.

i.e Acceleration = (velocity / Time)

Acceleration = 20.0m/s ➗ 10 s

Acceleration = 2m/s^2

Thus, Jeffrey acceleration was 2m/s^2

A gas has a volume of 4 liters at 50 oC. What will its volume be (in liters) at 100oC
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The volume of the gas at 100°C is 4.6189 liters.

Explanation:

For this problem we are going to use Charles' law. Charles' law states that the volume is directly proportional to temperature given that the pressure is constant. In order to use the equation, the unit of temperature should be in Kelvin.

The working equation is:

=

where V1 and T1 are the initial volume and temperature while V2 and T2 are the final conditions.

Let us convert first the temperatures before solving for the final volume.

To convert Celsius to Kelvin just add 273.15 to temperature in Celsius.

50°C + 273.15 = 323.15 K

100°C + 273.15 = 373.15 K

Solving for the final volume:

V₂ =

V₂ =

V₂ = 4.6189 L

Therefore the final volume of the gas at 100°C is 4.6189 L.
