Answer:

(1) n-Octane

(2) 2-methyl-Heptane

(3) 3-methyl-Heptane

(4) 4-methyl-Heptane

(5) 2-ethyl-Hexane

(6) 3-ethyl- Hexane

Explanation:

We are given Octane which has the chemical formula as C8H18, and we need to find its three possible structures.

Isomerism is defined as the phenomenon in which a chemical compound will consist of the same chemical formula but it will have different orientation or bond arrangements. in simpler meaning isomers of a compound has same chemical formula but has different structures.

Some possible isomers of the compound Octane are given as in terms of their IUPAC names.

Chemical formula : C8H18

(1) n-Octane

(2) 2-methyl-Heptane

(3) 3-methyl-Heptane

(4) 4-methyl-Heptane

(5) 2-ethyl-Hexane

(6) 3-ethyl- Hexane

Why do people want different kinds of light bulbs?
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

LED bulbs fit standard light sockets and are the most energy-efficient option. LEDs have lower wattage than incandescent bulbs but emit the same light output. This allows them to produce the same amount of light but use less energy. LEDs can last over 20 years and don't contain mercury

What type of lens is shown -covex lens<br> -this isnt a lens<br> concave lens
sleet_krkn [62]

\mathfrak{\huge{\orange{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Lens and Ray Optics.

We must understand the Concept that,

1.) When a beam of parallel light pass through a Convex lens, all the rays get deviated and converges to a special point at the axis that is a Focus.

2.) When a beam of light passes through the Concave lens,the light beams diverge from one another forming a virtual focus in the primary side of lens,

Hence the above given diagram beam rays are diverging, it is a CONCAVE LENS

answer is C.) Concave lens

When potassium metal is placed in water a large amount of energy is released as potassium hydroxide and hydrogen gas are produce
Ann [662]

Explanation:

2K(s)+2H_2O\rightarrow 2KOH(aq)+H_2(g)

The given reaction is redox reaction but not combustion reaction.

Redox reaction : It is a chemical reaction in which oxidation and reduction occurs simultaneously.Oxidation is gaining of electrons and reduction is loosing of electrons.

K\rightarrow K^++e^- oxidation

2H^++2e^-\rightarrow H_2 reduction

Potassium when reacts with water ,gives potassium ion in aqueous medium and combines with hydroxide ion present in water to form potassium hydroxide where as H^+ ions of water by gaining electrons (from potassium in water) gives hydrogen gas.

Hence , yes it is a redox reaction

Combustion reaction are the chemical reaction in which one reactant react with oxygen molecule to give heat and light.

Here in given reaction no oxygen molecule is appearing on reactant side.

Hence not a combustion reaction.
