Answer : The name of the given hydrocarbon is, 2-methylpropane

Explanation :

The rules for naming of alkanes are given as follows :

First select the longest possible carbon chain and number them.
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 two of 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 name for given hydrocarbon will be, 2-methylpropane

likoan [24]

We know that molarity = mol/L, so:

1.5 M = x mol/0.345 L

1.5 M * 0.345 L = x mol => 0.5175 mol

0.5175 mol/0.250 L = 2.07 M

Your new molarity of the solution will be 2.07 M.

This particle determines what element you have - the element's identity.

Answer:

protons

These particles do not vary in quality from one element to another; rather, what gives an element its distinctive identification is the quantity of its protons, called its atomic number. Protons and neutrons contribute nearly all of an atom's mass; the number of protons and neutrons is an element's mass number
