Answer:

Fatty acid.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, based on the given formula, it is possible to infer that the O₂ at the end, accounts for the presence of a carboxyl group (first attached picture), characteristic of carboxylic acids. Moreover, long-chained carboxylic acids are considered as fatty acids due to their high nonpolarity and hydrophobicity, therefore, the molecule with such formula probably a fatty acid, more precisely, stearic acid (second attached picture).

Best regards.

Which statement correctly compares electric charge with electric current?
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Your answer would be D) They both require a movement of charged particles

Explanation:

In short terms both the charge and the current are made up of charged particles that are always moving, they constantly move to well... stay charged, if they stopped, then the charge would fade until there is nothing left, and if there is nothing left -it means there would be no electricity to use

Magnesium acetate can be prepared by a reaction involving 15.0 grams of iron(III) acetate with either 10.0 grams of Magnesium Ch
noname [10]
1) Chemical reaction:
2(CH₃COO)₃Fe + 3MgCrO₄ → Fe₂(CrO₄)₃ + 3(CH₃COO)₂Mg.
m((CH₃COO)₃Fe) = 15,0 g.
m(MgCrO₄) = 10,0 g.
n((CH₃COO)₃Fe) = m((CH₃COO)₃Fe) ÷ M((CH₃COO)₃Fe).
n((CH₃COO)₃Fe) = 15 g ÷ 233 g/mol.
n((CH₃COO)₃Fe) = 0,064 mol.
n(MgCrO₄) = m(MgCrO₄) ÷ M(MgCrO₄).
n(MgCrO₄) = 10 g ÷ 140,3 g/mol.
n(MgCrO₄) = 0,071 mol; limiting reagens.
From chemical reaction: n(MgCrO₄) : n((CH₃COO)₂Mg) = 3 : 3.
n((CH₃COO)₂Mg) = 0,071 mol.
m((CH₃COO)₂Mg) = 0,071 mol · 142,4 g/mol.
n((CH₃COO)₂Mg) = 10,11 g.

2) Chemical reaction: 
2(CH₃COO)₃Fe + 3MgSO₄ → Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 3(CH₃COO)₂Mg.
m((CH₃COO)₃Fe) = 15,0 g.
m(MgSO₄) = 15,0 g.
n((CH₃COO)₃Fe) = m((CH₃COO)₃Fe) ÷ M((CH₃COO)₃Fe).
n((CH₃COO)₃Fe) = 15 g ÷ 233 g/mol.
n((CH₃COO)₃Fe) = 0,064 mol; limiting ragens.
n(MgSO₄) = m(MgSO₄) ÷ M(MgSO₄).
n(MgSO₄) = 15 g ÷ 120,36 g/mol.
n(MgSO₄) = 0,125 mol; limiting reagens.
From chemical reaction: n(CH₃COO)₃Fe) : n((CH₃COO)₂Mg) = 2 : 3.
n((CH₃COO)₂Mg) = 0,064 mol · 3/2.
n((CH₃COO)₂Mg) = 0,096 mol.
m((CH₃COO)₂Mg) = 0,096 mol · 142,4 g/mol.
m((CH₃COO)₂Mg) = 13,7 g.
