Every organic molecules/compound contains carbon (c).

Some other very abundant are hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, and sulfur.

I learned this with the acronym CHNOPS.

C - Carbon

H - Hydrogen

N - Nitrogen

O - Oxygen

P - Phosphorus

S - Sulfur

Hope this helps!

<u>Answer:</u> The elements which are common for all organic molecules is hydrogen and carbon.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Another name for organic molecules are hydrocarbons. This means that the molecules which consist of hydrogen and carbon atoms is an organic compound.

For Example:

$H_2O\text{ and }CO_2$ are not organic compounds, because in water, carbon is not there and in carbon dioxide, hydrogen is not there. But, $CH_4$ is an organic compound because hydrogen and carbon both are present.

Hence, hydrogen and carbon elements are common to all organic molecules.

Answer:

The correct answer is option e.

Explanation:

$P_4+ 5O_2 \rightarrow P_4O_{10}$

Moles of phosphorus pent-oxide :

$\frac{14.2 g}{284 g/mol}=0.05 mol$

According to reaction, 1 mole of phosphorus pent-oxide is obtained from 5 moles of oxygen gas.

Then 0.05 mole of phosphorus pent-oxide will be obtained from:

$\frac{5}{1}\times 0.05 mol=0.25 mol$

Hence,the correct answer is option e.

What is the IUPAC name of the following compound?

inn [45]

Answer:

2,6–dimethylcyclohexanol

Explanation:

To name the compound given in the question above, we must first obtain the following:

1. Determine the functional group of the compound.

2. Locate the longest continuous carbon chain.

3. Identify the substituent group attached to the compound.

4. Locate the position of the substituent group.

5. Combine the above to obtain the name of the compound.

Now, we shall determine the name IUPAC name of the compound. This can be obtained as follow:

1. The compound contains the –OH group. Thus, the compound is an alcohol.

2. The compound is a cyclic compound with six carbon forming the ring. Thus, the parent name of the compound is cyclohexane. Thus, the presence of the –OH group changes the parent name of the compound to cyclohexanol.

3. The substituent group attached to the compound is methyl (–CH₃)

NOTE: There are two –CH₃ groups attached to the compound.

4. The position of the 1st –CH₃ group is at carbon 2, while the 2nd is at carbon 6.

NOTE: Counting is done from the carbon bearing the functional group.

5. Therefore, the name of the compound is:

2,6–dimethylcyclohexanol

A given mass of air has a volume of 6.00 L at 101 kPa. At constant temperature, the pressure is decreased to 25.0 kPa. Calculate

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

24.24 L

Explanation:

Boyle’s law, also called Mariotte’s law, a relation concerning the compression and expansion of a gas at constant temperature.

This empirical relation, formulated by the physicist Robert Boyle in 1662, states that the pressure (p) of a given quantity of gas varies inversely with its volume (v) at constant temperature; i.e., in equation form, pv = k, a constant.

Real gases obey Boyle’s law at sufficiently low pressures, although the product pv generally decreases slightly at higher pressures, where the gas begins to depart from ideal behaviour.

As, PV = k

P₁ V₁ = P₂ V₂

Given P₁ = 101 KPa

V₁ = 6 L

P₂ = 25 kPa

So, V₂ = P₁ V₁ /P₂ = 101 *6/25 = 24.24 L

Give the reason for the evaporation of the solution to dryness with 6 m hcl in the first procedure of the copper-arsenic group a

SCORPION-xisa [38]

<span>
Evaporation occurred between the reaction of the hydrochloric acid and the arsenic group because there is a formation of gas. A liquid is cooled if condensation exceeds evaporation. This is because the cooling of the liquid decreases the kinetic energy of the molecules. Their movement is being restricted by the colder temperature. The molecules tend to be closer with each other. Also, because of their restricted movement, the liquid may turn into solid due the colder temperature. An example of this is the cooling of liquid water by placing it into the refrigerator into solid water (ice).</span>

What could be the fourth quantum number of a 1s^2 electron be?

Bumek [7]

The forth quantum number is Spin quantum number and the value of Spin Quantum Number of 1s² will be +1/2. Therefore, the correct option is (B) option

<h3>What is Spin Quantum Number ?</h3>

It describes the orientation of the electron spin (rotation) in space.

In the given case of 1s² configuration,

since, the Quantum numbers are known as:

Principal quantum number (n) which cannot be zero.

The allowed values of n are therefore 1, 2, 3, 4, and so on.

Angular quantum number (l) is able to be any integer between 0

and n-1.

Therefore, for example, If n = 1, l will be 0,

If n = 2, l can be either 0 or 1.

Magnetic quantum number (m) is able to be any integer between -l and +l.

Therefore, for example, If l = 3, m can be either -3 to +3.

Spin Quantum Number (ms): Ms = +½ or -½ accounts for the orientation of the spin axis of an electron as it is able to spin in only one of two directions.

Thus, since the fourth quantum number is Ms, spin, we infer that the answer is (B) option ie, Ms = +1/2 because it represents the positive spin on 1s².
