Answer : The number of double bonds present in propane is, Zero.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : Lewis-dot structure shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

Carbon has '4' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

The total number of valence electrons in C_3H_8 = 3(4) + 8(1) = 20

In the given molecule propane, there is a single bond present between the carbon-carbon atom and carbon-hydrogen atom.

According to the Lewis-dot structure, the number of double bonds present in propane is, Zero.

The Lewis-dot structure is shown below.

Answer:- none

Explanations:- For naming hydrocarbons we use the suffix -ane, -ene and -yne.

-ane is used when we have only single bonds between all carbons. -ene is used if there is any double bond between two carbons and the -yne is used if there is any triple bond between two carbons.

The given name of the compound is propane. It ends at -ane and so it's an alkane and must have single bonds between all the carbons it has. So, there are zero double bonds present in C_3H_8 .

This is also clear from the below lewis dot structure of the compound.

When 0.514 g of biphenyl (c12h10) undergoes comubustion in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature increases from 25.80 °c to 29.40

The  change  in  internal   energy  of the   combustion  of  biphenyl  in  Kj  is  calculated  as follows

  =heat  capacity of  bomb  calorimeter x  delta  T  where  delta T   is  change   in temperature
delta T  = 29.4  -25.8= 3.6 c

= 5.86 kj/c   x  3.6 c =  21.096  kj

When 0.250 moles of KCl are added to 200.0 g of water in a constant pressure calorimeter a temperature change is observed. Given
777dan777 [17]

Explanation:

Upon dissolution of KCl heat is generated and temperature of the solution raises.

Therefore, heat generated by dissolving 0.25 moles of KCl will be as follows.

             17.24 kJ/mol \times 0.25 mol

                = 4.31 kJ

or,             = 4310 J      (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)

Mass of solution will be the sum of mass of water and mass of KCl.

       Mass of Solution = mass of water + (no. of moles of KCl × molar mass)

                                    = 200 g + (0.25 mol \times 54.5 g/mol)

                                    = 200 g + 13.625 g

                                    = 213.625 g

Relation between heat, mass and change in temperature is as follows.

                             Q = mC \Delta T

where,    C = specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g^{o}C

Therefore, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

                     Q = mC \Delta T

            4310 J = 213.625 g \times 4.184 J/g^{o}C \times \Delta T      

              \Delta T = 4.82^{o}C

Thus, we can conclude that rise in temperature will be 4.82^{o}C.

What type of bonds hold the atoms together in polyatomic ions
IRISSAK [1]
<span>This is a covalent bond, a bond in which atoms share electrons. Covalent bonding generally happens between nonmetals. Covalent bonding is the type of bond that holds together the atoms within a polyatomic ion. It takes two electrons to make a covalent bond, one from each bonding atom.

Consider the heating curve for water. A graph of the heating curve for water has time in minutes on the horizontal axis and Temp
Zolol [24]

Answer:

0°C.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the heating curve of water on the attached document, we can notice that at 0 °C the solid starts melting, which means that the melting point is reached. Melting point is known as a physical change whereby a solid changes to liquid by the addition of heat as it allows the molecules to separate to each other.

Best regards.

How does inheritance depend on genes?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Parents pass on traits or characteristics, such as eye colour and blood type, to their children through their genes.These two copies of the gene contained in your chromosomes influence the way your cells work. The two alleles in a gene pair are inherited, one from each parent.
