A chemist observes that a large molecule reacts as if it were much smaller. The chemist proposes that the molecule is folded in

a way that causes it to react differently than expected and develops a series of experiments to test that proposition. How would the chemist's proposition be classified?

Answer:

Hypothesis

Explanation:

The following steps are applicable when we wish to prove a specific fact:

  • a hypothesis is made; this is a statement that we provide after some observations and we wish to either prove or deny it;
  • multiple experiments are carried out in order to gather significantly substantial amount of data that can be then further analyzed and any tendencies can be noticed;
  • based on the data gathered, conclusions are made: we either prove or deny the hypothesis. If hypothesis is proved, it may become a theory over long time.

In the context of this problem, we're at the first step where we make a hypothesis.

The modern periodic table is arranged by increasing
Lilit [14]

The periodic table of elements arranges all of the known chemical elements in an informative array. Elements are arranged from left to right and top to bottom in order of increasing atomic number. Order generally coincides with increasing atomic mass. The rows are called periods.

What is the correct iupac name of CH3-CH2-CH2CHO ?
kow [346]

the correct IUPAC name of the compound is 1-Butanal.

<h3>What are IUPAC names?</h3>

It is a system of naming organic compounds based on the longest carbon-to-carbon single bonds. It does not matter whether these longest chains are continuous or in a ring.

Thus, when the compound with the chemical formula, CH3-CH2-CH2CHO is considered. The longest carbon-to-carbon chain is 4. The 1st carbon carries a functional group known as an aldehyde.

Aldehydes are equipped with the carbonyl group and have the general formula R−CH=O. They are also sometimes referred to as formyl.

Aldehydes are named after their parent alkane chains with a slight modification. The 'e' is replaced with 'al'

The aldehyde in this case has four carbons. This means that the parent alkane is Butane. Therefore, the name of the compound will be 1-Butanal.

A vial containing radioactive selenium-75 has an activity of 3.0 mCi/mL. If 2.6 mCi are required for a leukemia test, how many m
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer : The 866.66\mu L must be administered.

Solution :

As we are given that a vial containing radioactive selenium-75 has an activity of 3.0mCi/mL.

As, 3.0 mCi radioactive selenium-75 present in 1 ml

So, 2.6 mCi radioactive selenium-75 present in \frac{2.6mCi}{3.0mCi}\times 1ml=0.86666ml\times 1000=866.66\mu L

Conversion :

(1ml=1000\mu L)

Therefore, the 866.66\mu L must be administered.
