Explanation:
You may not realise it, but you come across aldehydes and ketones many times a day. Take cakes and biscuits, for example. Their golden, caramelised crust is formed thanks to the Mailliard reaction. This is a process that occurs at temperatures above 140° C, when sugars with the carbonyl group in foods react with nucleophilic amino acids to create new and complex flavours and aromas.
Another example is formaldehyde. Correctly known as methanal, it is the most common aldehyde in industry. It has multiple uses, such as in tanning and embalming, or as a fungicide. However, we can also react it with different molecules to make a variety of more useful compounds. These include polymers, adhesives and precursors to explosives. But how do aldehydes and ketones react, and why?You should remember from Aldehydes and Ketones that they both contain the carbonyl functional group , . This is a carbon atom joined to an oxygen atom by a double bond. Let's take a closer look at it.
If we compare the electronegativities of carbon and oxygen, we can see that oxygen is a lot more electronegative than carbon.
Answer: Volume of gas in the stomach, V = 0.0318L or 31.8mL
Explanation:
The number of moles of oxygen will remain constant even though the liquid oxygen will undergo a change of state to gaseous inside the person's stomach due to an increase in temperature.
<em>Number of moles of oxygen gas = mass/molar mass</em>
molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol
mass of oxygen gas = density * volume
mass of oxygen gas = 1.149 g/ml * 0.035 ml
mass of oxygen gas = 0.040215 g
Number of moles of oxygen gas = 0.0402 g/(32 g/mol)
Number of moles of oxygen gas = 0.00125 moles
<em>Using the ideal gas equation, PV=nRT</em>
where P = 1.0 atm, V = ?, n = 0.00125 moles, R = 0.082 L*atm/K*mol, T = (37 + 273)K = 310 K
<em>V = nRT/P</em>
V = (0.00125moles) * (0.082 L*atm/K*mol) * (310 K) / 1 atm
V = 0.0318L or 31.8mL
Answer:
Option A. the hydroxyl group (-OH)
Explanation:
Ethanol, CH₃CH₂OH belongs to the class of organic compound called alkanol.
They have general formula as R–OH
Where
R => is an alkyl group
OH => is the hydroxyl group
The hydroxyl group (OH) is the functional group of the alkanol (alcohol)
