Note that butane has two possible isomers but that decane has 75 possible isomers. Why does the number of possible isomers go up

with an increasing number of carbon atoms?

Because the number of constitutional, conformational, and geometric isomers goes up with each carbon atom added. There are many more possible configurations and connectivities possible with decane, a 10 carbon chain, than with butane, a 4 carbon chain.

What does the host mean when he says that the acid has "donated a proton" to the water?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

As Brønsted-Lowry theory states, acids are the ones that can donate protons.

When a proton is donated, it is released to become medium more acidic.

HCl is a strong acid.

HCl (l) + H₂O (l)  →  H₃O⁺ (aq) +  Cl⁻(aq)

These always reffers to strong acid where the dissociation is 100% completed.

In a weak acid, dissociation is not 100% complete, that's why we have an equilibrium.

HA (l) + H₂O (l)  ⇄  H₃O⁺ (aq) +  A⁻(aq)                   Ka

The solubility of water in diethyl ether has been reported to be 1.468 % by mass.' Assuming that 23.0 mL of diethyl ether were a
melomori [17]

Explanation:

As it is given that solubility of water in diethyl ether is 1.468 %. This means that in 100 ml saturated solution water present is 1.468 ml.

Hence, amount of diethyl ether present will be calculated as follows.

                          (100ml - 1.468 ml)

                        = 98.532 ml

So, it means that 98.532 ml of diethyl ether can dissolve 1.468 ml of water.

Hence, 23 ml of diethyl ether can dissolve the amount of water will be calculated as follows.

          Amount of water = \frac{1.468 ml \times 23 ml}{98.532 ml}

                                       = 0.3427 ml

Now, when magnesium dissolves in water then the reaction will be as follows.

                Mg + H_{2}O \rightarrow Mg(OH)_{2}

Molar mass of Mg = 24.305 g

Molar mass of H_{2}O = 18 g

Therefore, amount of magnesium present in 0.3427 ml of water is calculated as follows.

           Amount of Mg = \frac{24.305 g \times 0.3427 ml}{18 g}  

                                    = 0.462 g
