Answer:

B. CH3CH2OH

Explanation:

Ethanol has a chemical formula of CH3CH2OH, it is the second member of the series in the alkanol family. Ethanol is a colourless, volatile liquid with a characteristic smell and taste. It is readily soluble in water in all proportions. It has a boiling point of 78° C. The physical properties such as the solubility of alkanols are affected by the presence of hydrogen bonding. The hydroxyl group is capable of bonding to other alkanol molecules. The boiling points rise with increasing molecular mass.

    Hydrogen bonding helps the molecules to stick together. For example comparing the boiling point of pentane ( 36° C) with that of butan-1-ol (118° C) , the boiling point of alkanol is much higher even though the two compound are of similar relative molecular mass. This is due to the presence of hydrogen bonds in butanol.

    Hydrocarbons are not soluble in water but alkanols are soluble in water because of the hydroxyl groups in the molecules can form hydrogen bond with water. Solubility of alkanol in water decreases as the number of carbon atom increases. Primary alcohol with more than five carbon atoms are insoluble in water.

Given the following equation, how many grams of PbCO3 will dissolve when exactly 1.0 L of 1.00 M H+ is added to 6.00 g of PbCO3?
9966 [12]
Calculating for the moles of H+
1.0 L x (1.00 mole / 1 L ) = 1 mole H+

From the given balanced equation, we can use the stoichiometric ratio to solve for the moles of PbCO3:
1 mole H+ x (1 mole PbCO3 / 2 moles H+) = 0.5 moles PbCO3

Converting the moles of PbCO3 to grams using the molecular weight of PbCO3
0.5 moles PbCO3 x (267 g PbCO3 / 1 mole PbCO3) = 84.5 g PbCO3

Unstable elements tend to combine with other elements to form
prisoha [69]

Answer: Compounds.

Explanation:

Compounds are formed when an unstable element combines with other elements, they do this by sharing electrons within their outmost shell. Compounds forms when there is a chemical bonding between two or more elements. Examples of compounds includes carbon dioxide (C, O) water (H and O), Sodium chloride (Na, Cl), methane, etc.

Write the ground state electron configuration of zn using the noble-gas shorthand notation.
V125BC [204]
Atomic Number of Zinc is 30, means it contains 30 electrons. So, its electronic configuration is as follow,

                                    1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰
As,
          1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶  =  Argon
So,
Electronic configuration of Zinc in shorthand notation is as follow,

                                     [Ar] 4s², 3d¹⁰
