C5H12, pentane, is a liquid at room temperature.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Art [367]3 years ago

Answer:

C)We cannot be sure unless we find out its boiling point.

Explanation:

It is necessary to clearly explain here that simply observing two compounds of the same homologous series irrespective of how close they may be in the series will not give us the faintest idea regarding which one will be a liquid, solid or gas at room temperature.

However, to determine whether an unknown substance will be a liquid at room temperature, then its important to measure its boiling point. If the boiling point is above room temperature, and the melting point is below room temperature, the compound is a liquid. If the boiling point of the unknown substance is below room temperature, it is a gas.

It is now safe to conclude that cannot decide on the state of matter in which a compound exists unless we know something about its boiling point, not merely looking closely at the properties of its neighbouring compounds in the same homologous series

lorasvet [3.4K]

In a food chain we arrange the energy in the form of a pyramid.

The producers are on the base of pyramid and then consumers are towards peak.

in the given food chain grass is being eaten by grasshopper which are food of birds.

Grasshoppers are also eaten up by Hawks. so both brids and hawks are feeding upon grasshoppers thus the amount of energy transferred from the grass to the grasshopper is the same as the amount of energy transferred from the grasshopper to the bird.
