Answer:The correct answer is option C.

Explanation;

Water has unique property that is, it expands on freezing.Which is the reason for less density of ice than water. The cracking of the bottle was due to the expansion of water (present inside the bottle) on freezing.

Generally, density is inversely proportional to the volume of the substance.

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Density\propto \frac{1}{Volume}

As we know ,that water expands on freezing which means that volume increases. And with increase in volume of density decreases.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

Write a structural formula for 1-pentanol, the alcohol derived from pentane, by making a substitution on one of the carbon atoms
DedPeter [7]
To yield an alcohol from an alkane, one reaction could be from alkyl halide through hydrolysis reaction. The alkyl halide should be pentyl chloride. When you add water to it, the OH⁻ ion will replace Cl to make 1-pentanol, while the Cl⁻ ion binds with H⁺ to form HCl. The main product is pentanol, while the by-product is HCl.

Four acids are analyzed and there KA values are determined which of the following values represents the strongest acid
Advocard [28]

x= the coefficients in front of the substance in the balanced chemical equation  

[H+]= the concentration of hydrogen ions  

[A-]= the concentration of the other ion that broke off from the H+  

[HA]= the un-disassociated acid concentration  

The higher the Ka value, the greater amount of disassociation of the reactants into products. As for acids, they will break down to form H+ ions. The more the H+ ions, the stronger acidity of the solution. Thus since A has the highest Ka value, that represents the strongest acid.  

You can determine the Ka value from a number of ways. If equilibrium concentrations are given of a certain acid solution, you can find the proportion of the concentration of ions to the concentration of the remaining HA molecules, using the equation above. Also, pH and KpH can be used in a number of ways. This gets more complicated and depends on the situation, and requires more advanced equations.


Hope this helped a little, its obviously not my best work
