The word that best fits the underlined in the sentence is "free-to-rotate." The carbon atoms in their carbon bonds are free to rotate since alkanes do not have geometric isomers. They only have single bonds and the most common example of which are trans molecules.
Chemical reaction is a process in which one set of chemical substances (reactants) is converted into another (products). It involves making and breaking chemical bonds and the rearrangement of atoms. Chemical reactions are represented by balanced chemical equations, with chemical formulas symbolizing reactants and products. For specific chemical reactants, two questions may be posed about a possible chemical reaction. First, will a reaction occur? Second, what are the possible products if a reaction occurs? This
Answer:Well-known examples are sodium hydroxide (NaOH) with OH- as the polyatomic anion, calcium carbonate (CaCO3), and ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3), which contains two polyatomic ions: NH+ and NO3-. ... The properties of compounds containing polyatomic ions are very similar to those of binary ionic compounds.
Explanation:
