How many hydrogen atoms are in the unbranched alkane with 15 carbon atoms?

Chemistry

zlopas [31]3 years ago

Answer:

32 hydrogen atoms

Explanation:

Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons, that is, organic compounds formed just by carbon and hydrogen bonded through single covalent bonds.

The general formula for alkanes is CnH2n+2.

When n = 15, 2n+2 is 2 × 15 + 2 = 32. The resulting formula is C₁₅H₃₂, with 32 H atoms in each molecule.

A non cyclic alkane always has a number of hydrogen atoms equal to 2c + 2, where c is the number of carbon atoms. Therefore, hexadecane, an alkane with 15 carbon atoms, will have  32 hydrogen atoms.

The pH of a solution is 3.81. What is the OH concentration in the solution?​
disa [49]

Answer:

6.46 × 10⁻¹¹ M

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

pH of the solution: 3.81

Step 2: Calculate the pOH of the solution

We will use the following expression.

pH + pOH = 14.00

pOH = 14.00 - pH = 14.00 - 3.81 = 10.19

Step 3: Calculate the concentration of OH⁻ ions

We will use the definition of pOH.

pOH = -log [OH⁻]

[OH⁻] = antilog -pOH = antilog -10.19 = 6.46 × 10⁻¹¹ M

2. Newton's 1st Law- says that objects in rest will stay in rest and objects in motion will stay in motion. The most important lesson here is that an object in rest may not be in rest position.
3. Ohms law- says the current passing through an area is directly proportional to the voltage
