If the density of water is 1.00 g/mL and the density of mercury is 13.6 g/mL, how high a column of water in meters can be suppor
1 answer:
Answer:
The answer to this is
The column of water in meters that can be supported by standard atmospheric pressure is 10.336 meters
Explanation:
To solve this we first list out the variables thus
Density of the water = 1.00 g/mL =1000 kg/m³
density of mercury = 13.6 g/mL = 13600 kg/m³
Standard atmospheric pressure = 760 mmHg or 101.325 kilopascals
Therefore from the equation for denstity we have
Density = mass/volume
Pressure = Force/Area and for a column of water, pressure = Density × gravity×height
Therefore where standard atmospheric pressure = 760 mmHg we have for Standard tmospheric pressure= 13600 kg/m³ × 9.81 m/s² × 0.76 m = 101396.16 Pa
This value of pressure should be supported by the column of water as follows
Pressure = 101396.16 Pa = kg/m³×9.81 m/s² ×h
∴ = 10.336 meters
The column of water in meters that can be supported by standard atmospheric pressure is 10.336 meters

Answer:
1-(tert-butoxy)-2-methylpropane
Note: there is a mistake in formula, the correct formula is (CH₃)₂-CH-CH₂-O-C(CH₃)₃ not (CH₃)₂-CH-CH₂-O(CH₃)₃, because oxygen is a divalent compound.
Explanation:
<em>Structural formula is attached</em>
IUPAC naming rules
1. start numbering the chain from the functional group. In this compound we start from oxygen side.
2. Here we can see that at position 1 there is an oxy group along with a tertiary carbon having three methyl groups. So we write it as 1-tert-butoxy. Which means that there is a methoxy group at position 1 along with a tertiary carbon.
3. At position 2 we can see that there is a methyl group attached to the main chain, so we write it as 2-methyl.
4. Now we count the total number of carbons in the main chain. As we can see that there are 3 carbons in the remaining or parent chain, so we write it as propane
5. So the IUPAC name of the compound will be 1-(tert-butoxy)-2-methylpropane
