There are at least two ways to look at this.

Method One :
  The Zn in Zinc Cyanide belongs to valency two while the CN radical
    belongs to valency one.   As a result, you would need two CN radicals
    to bond with the Zn to make it a stable compound.  Hence the formula
    being   Zn(CN)₂

Method Two  :
   
Since the mole of zinc is 4.7 mol and that of CN is 9.5  mol then that
     means that there is twice as much moles of CN as there is Zinc  
     4.7 mol ×  2  =  9. 4 mol
.   Thus the formula would be Zn(CN)₂

What will happen if you take a frog out of the food chain?
Setler [38]
<span>there are a number of animals that eat  frogs that will die off, then the animals that eat them will go hungry, and their populations will die off as well. This would just keep going up the food chain. Essentially, the loss of the frogs could have deep, reverberating effects that we may not grasp until it’s too late.</span>

Choose the most appropriate reagent(s) for the conversion of propyne and 2-methyl-1-tosyloxypropane to 5-methyl-2-hexyne. NaNH2,
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

NaNH2, NH3

Explanation:

Choose the most appropriate reagent(s) for the conversion of propyne and 2-methyl-1-tosyloxy propane to 5-methyl-2-hexyne. NaNH2, NH3 NaOH, H2O KOCH2CH3, HOCH2CH3 H2SO4 NH3

answer is  NaNH2, NH3

NaNH2, NH3 is strong to to convert propyne into a nucleophilic salt which in turn displaced tosylate in  2-methyl-1-tosyloxy propane to yield  5-methyl-2-hexyne.

Propyne and 5-methyl-2-hexyne. are still of the same homologous series,, so no triple bond is broken during the reaction

The essence of a reagent is to bring the reaction to its end point

A sample of mg(hco3)2 contains 1.8 moles of oxygen atom find the number of carbon atoms in the given sample
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

0.60 moles of atoms of carbon

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Chemical formula of the compound: Mg(HCO₃)₂
  • Moles of oxygen atoms: 1.8 moles

Step 2: Calculate the number of carbon atoms in the given sample

According to the chemical formula of the compound, the molar ratio of C to O is 2:6, that is, there are 2 moles of atoms of C every 6 moles of atoms of O. The number of moles of atoms of C is:

1.8 mol O × 2 mol C / 6 mol O = 0.60 mol C

When a mercury-202 nucleus is bombarded with a neutron, a proton is ejected. What element is formed?
Galina-37 [17]

That will make a gold-202 nucleus.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Refer to a periodic table. The atomic number of mercury Hg is 80.

Step One: Bombard the \displaystyle ^{202}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} with a neutron ^{1}_{0}n. The neutron will add 1 to the mass number 202 of ^{202}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg}. However, the atomic number will stay the same.

  • New mass number: 202 + 1 = 203.
  • Atomic number is still 80.

^{202}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} + ^{1}_{0}n \to ^{203}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg}.

Double check the equation:

  • Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 202 + 1 = 203 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
  • Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.

Step Two: The ^{203}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} nucleus loses a proton ^{1}_{1}p. Both the mass number 203 and the atomic number will decrease by 1.

  • New mass number: 203 - 1 = 202.
  • New atomic number: 80 - 1 = 79.

Refer to a periodic table. What's the element with atomic number 79? Gold Au.

^{203}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} \to ^{202}_{\phantom{2}79}\text{Au} + ^{1}_{1}p.

Double check the equation:

  • Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 203 = 202 + 1 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
  • Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = 79 + 1 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.

A gold-202 nucleus is formed.
