Carbon is the element at the heart of all organic compounds, and it is such a versatile element because of its ability to form straight chains, branched chains, and rings. Because these chains and rings can have all sorts of different functional groups in all sorts of different ways (giving the compond all sorts of different physical and chemical properties), carbon's ability to form the backbone of these large structures is critial to the existence of most chemical compounds known to man. Above all, the organic molecules crucial to the biochemical systems that govern living organisms depend on carbon compounds.

Law of conservation of momentum states that
For two or more bodies in an isolated system acting upon each other, their total momentum remains constant unless an external force is applied. Therefore, momentum can neither be created nor destroyed.

When a substance is provided energy<u> </u>in the form of heat, it's temperature increases. The extent of temperature increase is determined by the heat capacity of the substance. The larger the heat capacity of a substance, the more energy is required to raise its temperature.
When a substance undergoes a FIRST ORDER phase change, its temperature remains constant as long as the phase change remains incomplete. When ice at -10 degrees C is heated, its temperature rises until it reaches 0 degrees C. At that temperature, it starts melting and solid water is converted to liquid water. During this time, all the heat energy provided to the system is USED UP in the process of converting solid to the liquid. Only when all the solid is converted, is the heat used to raise the temperature of the liquid.
This is what results in the flat part of the freezing/melting of condensation/boiling curve. In this flat region, the heat capacity of the substance is infinite. This is the famous "divergence" of the heat capacity during a first order phase transition.
There are certain phase transitions where the heat capacity does not become infinitely large, such as the process of a non-magnetic substance becoming a magnetic substance (when cooled below the so-called Curie temperature).

Answer:
773.43 torr
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Pressure (in inHg) = 30.45 inHg
Pressure (in torr) =?
We can convert 30.45 inHg to torr by doing the following:
1 inHg = 25.4 torr
Therefore,
30.45 inHg = 30.45 inHg × 25.4 torr / 1 inHg
30.45 inhg = 773.43 torr
Thus, 30.45 inhg is equivalent to 773.43 torr
