<span>To make sure there are enough pollen to fertilize the seeds from the pistil. Not all pollen can make it to the pistil. It's the same as animals producing millions of sperms although only one is needed for fertilization.</span>

Hydrides are compounds made up of hydrogen and metal. Why ammonia has the highest boiling point among the hydrides of elements i

RoseWind [281]

The correct option is D.
The hydrogen atoms that are attached to the nitrogen atom in the ammonia molecule are capable of forming hydrogen bond. The hydrogen bond that exist in the ammonia molecule is the reason why it shows higher boiling point compare to the other hydrides. Hydrogen bond occur in ammonia because ammonia is one of the most electronegative elements.

How much energy (kJ) is required to change 0.18 mole of ice (s) at 0 C to water (l) at 0 C?

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:25,06 kJ of energy must be added to a 75 g block of ice.

ΔHfusion(H₂O) = 6,01 kJ/mol.

T(H₂O) = 0°C.

m(H₂O) = 75 g.

n(H₂O) = m(H₂O) ÷ M(H₂O).

n(H₂O) = 75 g ÷ 18 g/mol.

n(H₂O) = 4,17 mol.

Q = ΔHfusion(H₂O) · n(H₂O)

Q = 6,01 kJ/mol · 4,17 mol

Q = 25,06 kJ.

What is the standard unit used to measure mass

AlladinOne [14]

The standard International System of Units (SI) unit of mass is the kilogram(kg). The kilogram is 1000 grams (g), first defined in 1795 as one cubic decimeter of water at the melting point of ice.

3mL of cyclohexanol (density = 0.9624 g/mL, Molecular weight = 100.158 g/mol) reacts with excess sulfuric acid to produce cycloh

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

$n_{C_6H_{10}}=0.03molC_6H_{10}$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case the undergoing chemical reaction is shown on the attached picture whereas cyclohexanol is converted into cyclohexene and water by the dehydrating effect of the sulfuric acid. Thus, for the starting 3 mL of cyclohexanol, the following stoichiometric proportional factor is applied in order to find the theoretical yield of cyclohexene in moles:

$n_{C_6H_{10}}=3mLC_6H_{12}O*\frac{0.9624gC_6H_{12}O}{1mLC_6H_{12}O}*\frac{1molC_6H_{12}O}{100.158gC_6H_{12}O}*\frac{1molC_6H_{10}}{1molC_6H_{12}O} \\n_{C_6H_{10}}=0.03molC_6H_{10}$
