Answer: B. a five-carbon chain with a three-carbon branch on the third carbon in the chain

Explanation:

The IUPAC nomenclature of alkanes are given as follows:

Select the longest possible carbon chain.

For the number of carbon atom, we add prefix as 'meth' for 1, 'eth' for 2, 'prop' for 3, 'but' for 4, 'pent' for 5, 'hex' for 6, 'sept' for 7, 'oct' for 8, 'nona' for 9 and 'deca' for 10.

A suffix '-ane' is added at the end of the name if all the bonds are single.

If two or more similar alkyl groups are present, then the words 'di', 'tri' 'tetra' and so on are used to specify the number of times these alkyl groups appear in the chain.

Hence, the compound 3-propylpentane will have a five carbon chain as the longest chain and the third carbon bears a substituent with three carbon atoms.

What is the percent of Cr in Cr2O3
IgorLugansk [536]
The percentage of Chromium in Chromium Oxide is calculated as follow,

Step 1:
           Calculate Molar mass of Cr₂O₃,
Cr = 51.99 u
O = 16 u
So,
     2(51.99) + 3(16) = 103.98 + 48 = 151.98 u

Step 2:
          Secondly divide molar mass of only chromium with total mass of Cr₂O₃ and multiply with 100.
i.e.
                   = \frac{103.98}{151.98} × 100
                   
                   = 68.41 %
So, the %age composition of chromium in chromium oxide is 68.41 %.

(a) Show that the pressure exerted by a fluid P (in pascals) is given by P = hdg, where h is the column of the fluid in metres,
Komok [63]

Answer:

B) THE DEPTH OF THE LAKE IS 0.060 m

Explanation:

b) Determine the depth of the lake in metres

1. Using the general gas law, we will calculate the initial pressure of the air bubbles.

P1V1 /T1 = P2V2/T2

P1 = Unknown

T1 = 5.24 °C

T2 = 18.73 °C

P2 = 0.973 atm

V1 = V1

V2 = 6V1

P1 = P2 V2 T1 / V1 T2

P1 = 0.973 * 6V1 * 5.24 / V1 * 18.73

P1 = 5.09852 * 6 / 18.73

P1 = 30.59112 / 18.73

P1 = 1.633 atm.

2. Calculate the depth of the lake:

             Pressure = length * density * acceleration

            length = Pressure / density * acceleration

Pressure = 1.633 atm = 1.633 * 101, 325 Nm^2 = 165, 463.725 Nm^2

Density =  1.02 g/cm3 = 1.02 * 10^3 kg/m^3

Acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2

So therefore, the length in metres is:

Length = density * acceleration / pressure

Length =  1.02 *10^3 * 9.8 / 165, 463.725  

Length = 9.996 * 10^3 / 165 463.725

Length = 0.06 m

Hence, the depth of the lake is 0.06 m
