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.

What is the main function of the part labeled Yin the model?
NARA [144]

Answer:

The part labelled Y is the chloroplast and its main function is to produce food for the plant in the reactions of photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Plants are autotrophic organisms in that they are able to manufacture their own food. Plants are able to manufacture their own food due to the presence of the cell organelle known as the chloroplast.  The plant chloroplast has its own DNA and can reproduce independently, from the rest of the cell. They can as well produce amino acids and lipids required for the chloroplast membrane.

Chloroplasts are green-colored membrane-bound organelles found within the plant cell. Their green color is due to the presence of the pigment, chlorophyll. Chlorophyll in the chloroplasts are responsible for absorbing light energy from sunlight and using this absorbed energy to make simple sugars (carbohydrates) from carbon (iv) oxide and water. This is the main function of the chloroplasts in plant cells.

Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts in two reaction steps:

1. The light reaction - involves the splitting of e=water molecules using the energy of sunlight

2. The dark reactions - carbon (iv) oxide from the air is used to produce sugars.

if you had 16 tiles and each tile cost 80 cents how much change would you dmget back if you paid with 2 100 bills
olasank [31]

16 tiles x 0.80 = $12.80

If you have two 100 dollar bills, you have 200 dollars.

$200 - $12.80 = $187.20
