Answer:

Explanation:

The compound H2CCH2 has the condensed formula C2H4. The name of the compound is ethene. The compound is unsaturated, that is, it contains multiple bonds. The compound has a formula which fits into the general molecular formulae of alkenes (olefins) which his CnH2n.

Olefins have a double bonds between the carbon atoms. That is , the two carbon atoms in Olefins are connected via a double covalent bond. This now implies that the two carbon atoms in ethene (C2H4) are connected by two covalent bonds in the lewis structure of the molecule as is common for Olefins.

Answer:

B. Colloid

Explanation:

Colloid is a mixture that is made up of very small homogeneous particles, thus can not be separated into fractions. Its particles do not settle as other solution, but are evenly dispersed in the medium. Some examples are: liquid milk, jelly, rubber etc

Since colloid is a solution, thus it is made up of two parts; its particles and dispersing medium.

Which of the following describes something an engineer would probably do

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

C. Research what has been done in the past to clean up oceanic oil

residue.

Explanation:

The engineer being an innovator would probably have to dig through the past to see what has been done before him and in what way his technology is addressing the problem. If sees that his invention is unique, he would get a patent for his invention and then proceed to design the device. If he does not do this, he might just waste his whole duplicating an invention already made.
