Answer:

2,2,3-trimethylbutane

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are the rules for naming alkanes.

1. Find the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms.

There is a <em>four-carbon chain</em> (blue).

2. Name the main chain.

The chain has four C atoms, so its base name is <em>butane</em>.

3. Identify and name all the substituents.

There are three CH₃ groups (<em>methyl</em><em>,</em> blue bonds).

4. Number the main chain from the end that gives the lowest possible locants to the substituents.

From the left-hand end, the locants are 2,2,3. From the right-hand end, they are 2,3,3. The first point of difference is the second locant. 2 < 3, so we <em>number from the left</em>.

5. Put the names of the substituents with their locants in alphabetical order in front of the base name with no spaces.

Use numbers to connect numbers and hyphens to connect numbers and letters.

The IUPAC name is 2,2,3-trimethylbutane.

What would barium do to obtain a noble gas structure? gain 2 electrons lose 2 electrons gain 6 electrons lose 6 electrons
Tema [17]

Answer:

Lose two electrons.

Explanation:

Barium is present in group 2.

It is alkaline earth metal.

Its atomic number is 56.

Its electronic configuration is Ba₅₆ = [Xe] 6s².

In order to attain the noble gas electronic configuration it must loses its two valance electrons.

When barium loses it two electron its electronic configuration will equal to the Xenon.

The atomic number of xenon is 54 so barium must loses two electrons to becomes equal to the xenon.

What is the difference between ionic compund and covalent compound​
sleet_krkn [62]

A covalent bond is formed between two non-metals that have similar electronegativities.

An <em>i</em><em>o</em><em>n</em><em>i</em><em>c</em><em> </em><em>b</em><em>o</em><em>n</em><em>d</em> is formed between a metal and a non-metal. Non-metals(-ve ion) are "stronger" than the metal(+ve ion) and can get electrons very easily from the metal. These two opposite ions attract each other and form the ionic bond.
