What are your answer choices? Scientists express the weight in AMU’s so that they can easily think about the weight of the atom. If it is expressed in grams, they’re constantly dealing with a weight that’s around 10^-24 grams, which is hard to deal with.

A certain compound was found to have the molecular formula C5H12O2. To which of the following compound classes could the compoun
IgorC [24]

Answer : The given compound belongs to ether and alcohol.

Explanation :

The chemical formula of the given compound is, C_5H_{12}O_2

First we have to calculate the degree of unsaturation.

Formula used:

Degree of unsaturation = \frac{2C+2+N-X-H}{2}

where,

C = number of carbon

H = number of hydrogen

N = number of nitrogen

X = number of halogen

Degree of unsaturation = \frac{2\times 5+2+0-0-12}{2}=0

The degree of unsaturation is, 0 that means there is no double or triple bond in the compound only single bond is present between the atoms.

Thus, the given compound belongs to ether and alcohol.

What type of reaction occurs when complex compounds are broken down into simpler substances?
Zarrin [17]
Complex compounds are broken down to simpler substances in catabolic reactions.

These kinds of reactions often occur in biological systems. In living organisms, complex compounds like lipids, proteins and complex sugar like cellulose are broken down into simpler forms. Products of these reactions are simple sugars, amino acids etc. but a certain amount of energy is also produced and stored in energy molecules for future use.

a metal forms two oxides. The higher oxide contains 80% metal. 0.72g of the lower oxide gave 0.8g of the higher oxide when oxidi
zzz [600]

Answer:

0.72 g of the lower oxide gave 0.8 g of higher oxide when oxidised. ... Thus, 90g of lower oxide contains as much metal as 100g of higher oxide, i.e., 80g (given). Hence, 80g of metal combines with 10g of oxygen in the lower oxide and 20g of oxygen in the higher oxide.
