Answer:

Double bond

Explanation:

Carbon is a tetravalent atom. This implies that the carbon atom always forms four covalent bonds.

These four covalent  bonds may be single, double or triple bonds. Compounds that contain double and triple bonds are said to be "unsaturated".

If the last carbon atom of an unsaturated fatty acid is bonded to two hydrogen atoms and one carbon atom, it means that the bond between the last carbon and the other carbon atom must be a double bond because carbon must be tetravalent and we have already been told that the fatty acid is unsaturated.

The last carbon atom of the unsaturated fatty acid must form two covalent bonds to the other carbon atom in order to respect the tetravalency of carbon.

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

pH = 4.9

Explanation:

Given data

[H⁺] = 13 × 10⁻⁶ M

The pH is a scale used to determine <em>the acidity or basicity of a solution</em>. The pH is related to the concentration of hydrogen ions through the following expression.

pH = -log [H⁺]

pH = -log 13 × 10⁻⁶

pH = 4.9

Since the pH < 7, the soil is considered to be acid.

When aqueous ammonia is added to a solution containing Bi3+ and Cu2+ cations, ____________ occurs. A. Reduction to black bismuth
MissTica

Answer:

C. Precipitation of white bismuth hydroxide.

Explanation:

When aqueous ammonia is added to a solution that has Bi3+ and CU2+ cations, what we would have as a chemical result is the precipitation of white Bismuth hydroxide.

The chemical reaction for this can be written as,

Bi3+ + 2NH3 + 3H2O ⇌ Bi(OH)3(s) + 3NH4

Thank you!
