Answer: The correct answer is Option 1.

Explanation:

Control group is the group used in the experiment by the researchers in which no change in the variable is done. It is then set as a benchmark for the groups which are being tested.

We are given 4 groups which are being experimented for the flotation of an egg in water. As in Cup 1, there is no addition of salt and hence there is no change in the variables. So, this is set as a benchmark fro the cups which are further used in the experiment conducted.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

2C_6H_14 + 19O_2 → 12CO_2 + 14H_2O

<em>Step 1</em>. Write the <em>condensed structural  formula</em> for 2,3-dimethylbutane.

(CH_3)_2CHCH(CH_3)_2

<em>Step 2</em>. Write the <em>molecular formula</em>.

C_6H_14

<em>Step 3</em>. Write the <em>unbalanced chemical equation</em>.

C_6H_14 + O_2 → CO_2 + H_2O

<em>Step 4</em>. Pick the <em>most complicated-looking formula</em> (C_6H_14) and balance its atoms (C and H).

<em>1</em>C_6H_14 + O_2 → <em>6</em>CO_2 + <em>7</em>H_2O

<em>Step 5</em>. Balance the <em>remaining atoms</em> (O).

1C_6H_14 + (<em>19/2</em>)O_2 → 6CO_2 + 7H_2O

Oops! <em>Fractional coefficients</em>!

<em>Step 6</em>. <em>Multiply all coefficients by a number</em> (2) to give integer coeficients..

2C_6H_14 + 19O_2 → 12CO_2 + 14H_2O

What is acidic and base​
Arisa [49]

Answer:

there are more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions in the solution. This kind of solution is acidic. A base is a substance that accepts hydrogen ions.

Explanation:

An acid is a substance that donates hydrogen ions. ... Now there are more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions in the solution. This kind of solution is acidic. A base is a substance that accepts hydrogen ions. When a base is dissolved in water, the balance between hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions shifts the opposite way.
