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.

What does AS> O mean?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

ΔS> 0 means Letter A

Explanation:

Processes that involve an increase in entropy of the system (ΔS > 0) are very often spontaneous; however, examples to the contrary are plentiful. By expanding consideration of entropy changes to include the surroundings, we may reach a significant conclusion regarding the relation between this property and spontaneity. In thermodynamic models, the system and surroundings comprise everything, that is, the universe, and so the following is true:

\displaystyle \Delta {S}_{\text{univ}}=\Delta {S}_{\text{sys}}+\Delta {S}_{\text{surr}}

24g of methane were burned in an excess of air. What mass of water would be produced in the reaction assuming complete combustio
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

54g of water

Explanation:

Based on the reaction, 1 mole of methane produce 2 moles of water.

To solve this question we must find the molar mass of methane in order to find the moles of methane added. With the moles of methane and the chemical equation we can find the moles of water produced and its mass:

<em>Molar mass CH₄:</em>

1C = 12g/mol*1

4H = 1g/mol*4

12g/mol + 4g/mol = 16g/mol

<em>Moles methane: </em>

24g CH₄ * (1mol / 16g) = 1.5 moles methane

<em>Moles water:</em>

1.5moles CH₄ * (2mol H₂O / 1mol CH₄) = 3.0moles H₂O

<em>Molar mass water:</em>

2H = 1g/mol*2

1O = 16g/mol*1

2g/mol + 16g/mol = 18g/mol

<em>Mass water:</em>

3.0moles H₂O * (18g / mol) =

<h3>54g of water</h3>

Consider the following reversible reaction.
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Keq = [CO₂]/[O₂]

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation for the reaction at equilibrium

C(s) + O₂(g) ⇄ CO₂(g)

Step 2: Write the expression for the equilibrium constant (Keq)

The equilibrium constant is equal to the product of the concentrations of the products raised to their stoichiometric coefficients divided by the product of the concentrations of the reactants raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. It only includes gases and aqueous species. The equilibrium constant for the given system is:

Keq = [CO₂]/[O₂]
