The structural formula for 2-methylpentane is in Figure 1. It shows all the C-C and C-H bonds explicitly.

The bond-line formula for 2-methylpentane is in Figure 2. We assume that a carbon atom is at the ends and junctions of the lines. We do not show the H atom, but we mentally assume that there are enough to give each carbon a valence of four.

A condensed structural formula is designed to be typed all on one line. We could write the condensed structural formula for 2-methylpentane as either (CH₃)₂CH-CH₂-CH₂-CH₃ or CH₃CH(CH₃)CH₂CH₂CH₃.

The horizontal C-C bonds are optional — you can include or omit them as desired.

A chemist sets up a chemical reaction but finds that none of the reactant molecules have a required activation energy. What is t

Anvisha [2.4K]

Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy that the colliding reactant molecules must possess for the formation of products. Lower the activation energy, higher will be chance of formation of products. So activation energy is the minimum energy requirement that has to overcome for the reaction to be completed. Therefore, when in a chemical reaction the reactant molecules do not collide with required activation energy, the collisions will not be fruitful even if they are properly oriented which means that the products will not form.

Hence the correct answer will be B.) no products will be formed

The green areas on the diagram show the world's rainforests. What can you conclude about the location of rainforests?

Ber [7]

Answer:

Option A

They are located near the equator

Explanation:

From the diagram, we can observe that all the rain forest zones occur near the equator.

This is because on an annual basis, the equator receives the highest concentration of solar radiation in the whole Earth. This implies that the rate of evaporation of water from the water bodies present is high, and consequently, the amount of rainfall is high also. This abundant sunshine and high rainfall leads to the growth of the tropical rain forests at those regions
