What is the name of this hydrocarbon? 2-dimethylyne 2-methylbutane 4-methylbutene 4,3-methylbutyne 4,4-methylbutane
Alisiya [41]
You have shown no structure, still we can work out for the answer :).

First Option: <span>2-dimethylyne: This name is incorrect, because it does not contain any parent chain name. 

Second Option: </span><span>2-methylbutane: I have drawn its structure below, compare it with your structure.

Third Option: </span>4-methylbutene:<span> I have drawn the structure for this name. But this name is also against IUPAC rules, and its correct name is 1-Pentene.

Fourth Option: </span><span>4,3-methylbutyne: Again incorrect name, 4,3 are two positions, but here only one substituent is given (methyl). I have drawn structure of 3,4-Dimethylbutene, this name is incorrect, and the correct name for this compound is 3-Methyl-1-pentene.

Fifth Option: </span><span>4,4-methylbutane: Again incorrect name, 4,4 means at 4 position two substituents, but in name only methyl is given. Anyhow lets make it two and draw a structure, for 4,4-Dimethylbutane. Ooops!! This name is also incorrect, and the correct name for this compound is 2-Methylpentane.

Result:
           Among all options only, option B (2-Methylbutane) is correctly named, and this will be the correct name for the structure given to you. </span>

Water has a high specific heat because: Select one: a. it is a poor insulator b. hydrogen bonds must be broken to raise its temp
Crank
<h2>The required "option is b) hydrogen bonds must be broken to raise its temperature.</h2>

Explanation:

  • Water has high specific heat due to hydrogen bonds present in it.
  • The Ionisation of water does not affect the specific heat of the water.
  • On decreasing the temperature, there is the formation of bonds hence option (d) is wrong.
  • On increasing the temperature, there is the breaking of bonds hence option (b) is correct.

The difference in interchain stability between the polysaccharides glycogen and cellulose is due to: Group of answer choices the
denis-greek [22]

Answer: both the different glycosidic linkages of the molecules and the different hydrogen bonding partners of the individual chains.

Explanation:

Glycogen is a polysaccharide of glucose which is a form of energy storage in fungi, bacteria and animals. Glycogen is primarily stored in the liver cells and skeletal muscle.

The difference in interchain stability between the polysaccharides glycogen and cellulose is due to the different glycosidic linkages of the molecules and the different hydrogen bonding partners of the individual chains.
