Aleks [24]

Answer:

a) both substances are insoluble in water

b) both substances are soluble in ligroin

c) both substances suffer combustion, octane produces more CO₂ than hexene.

d) both substances are less dense than waterl, with hexene having the lowest density.

e) only hexene would react with bromine

f)  only hexene would react with permanganate

Explanation:

a) both substances are non-polar and water is polar

b) both substances are non-polar and lingroin is non-polar

c) C₈H₁₈ + 17.5O₂ → 8CO₂ + 9H₂O

    C₆H₁₂ + 9O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

d) water = 997 kg/m³

    ocatne = 703 kg/m³

    hexene = 673 kg/m³

e) bromine test is used to detect unsaturations

f) permanganate test is used to detect unsaturations

An ion of oxygen- 16 contains 8 protons and has a 2- charge. How many electrons does it have?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

i would say 10, so the anser is A.

Explanation:

because there are the same number of protons and electrons, therefore for a regular O, you are supposed to have only 8 protons, but it is charged, thus, whatever the charge is will be taken into consideration into how much the proton and electron doe it have. Thus, for this case, it has 10, because the charge is negative and you have 8 electron plus 2 = 10.
