I think it’s microbiology, since it would help the student understand the process of composting the best. Botany is plants- not for composting. Geophysics- he’s not researching tectonic plates. Oceanography- he isn’t interested in the marina trench
Vanillin is the common name for 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzaldehyde.
See attached figure for the structure.
Vanillin have 3 functional groups:
1) aldehyde group: R-HC=O, in which the carbon is double bonded to oxygen
2) phenolic hydroxide group: R-OH, were the hydroxyl group is bounded to a carbon from the benzene ring
3) ether group: R-O-R, were hydrogen is bounded through sigma bonds to carbons
Now for the hybridization we have:
The carbon atoms involved in the benzene ring and the red carbon atom (from the aldehyde group) have a <u>sp²</u> hybridization because they are involved in double bonds.
The carbon atom from the methoxy group (R-O-CH₃) and the blue oxygen's have a <u>sp³</u> hybridization because they are involved only in single bonds.
Answer:
2Ag + H2O -----> Ag2O + 2H
Explanation:
2Ag + H2O -----> Ag2O + 2H is the equation of the reaction between metal and steam. Silver reacts with water (steam) forming silver oxide and hydrogen gas. When the metals react with steam it produces the solid metal oxide and hydrogen gas. On the surface o metals, a protective layer of aluminium oxide is formed that keeps water away from the metal so we can say that silver oxide and hydrogen are formed from the reaction of silver metal and steam.
<span>To calculate the number of moles of aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen atoms in 4.00 moles of aluminum sulfate, al2(so4)3. We will simply inspect the "number" of aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen atoms available per one mole of the compound. Here we have Al2(SO4)3, which means that for every mole of aluminum sulfate, there are 2 moles of aluminum, 3 (1 times 3) moles of sulfur, and 12 (4x3) moles of oxygen. Since we have four moles of Al2(SO4)3 given, we simply multiply 4 times the moles present per 1 mole of the compound. So we have 4x2 = 8 moles of Al, 4x3 = 12 moles of sulfur, and 4x12 = 48 moles of oxygen.
So the answer is:
8,12,48
