Answer:

Option a. Benzenecarbonitrile

Explanation:

You are not providing the picture of the compound. However, I manage to find the picture of it, so I'm gonna answer this with the picture. Its attached here at the end.

As for the IUPAC name of this compound, it would be Benzenecarbonitrile, or simply, benzonitrile.

This compound has the molecular formula C₆H₅CN. It receives this name over the other ones, because this is a aromatic cyanide, and aromatic cyanide has nitriles behavior, (Strength of the nitrogen over the carbon), therefore, this group has priority over the whole molecule. As the principal chain is the benzene, the carbonitrile is the radical of the group, and when cyano groups are as radical and not as principal chains, it has a behavior of nitrile, and it's named as nitrile. therefore, option b, cannot be the name.

phenylcyanide is naming the phenyl as radical, but the benzene is the principal group in this compound, and the cyanide is the radical. It happens the same thing with cyanophenyl.

Hope this helps

Answer:

3–ethyl–4–methylhexane.

Explanation:

To name the above compound, do the following:

1. Determine the functional group of the compound.

2. Locate the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound.

3. Identify the substituent group attached to the compound.

4. Give the substituent the lowest possible count.

5. Combine the above to name the compound.

Now, we shall name the compound given in the question above as follow:

1. The compound contains only single bond. Therefore, the compound belong to the alkane family.

2. The longest continuous carbon chain is 6 i.e hexane.

3. The substituent group attached are:

i. Methyl, CH3.

ii. Ethyl, CH2CH3.

4. we shall name the substituents alphabetically i.e ethly will come before methyl. Therefore,

Ethyl is located at carbon 3.

Methy is located at carbon 4.

5. Therefore, the name of the compound is:

3–ethyl–4–methylhexane.

Will give lots of points if answered correctly. Determine the kb for chloroform when 0.793 moles of solute in 0.758 kg changes t

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer: The value of $K_{b}$ for chloroform is $3.62^{o}C/m$ when 0.793 moles of solute in 0.758 kg changes the boiling point by 3.80 °C.

Explanation:

Given: Moles of solute = 0.793 mol

Mass of solvent = 0.758

$\Delta T_{b} = 3.80^{o}C$

As molality is the number of moles of solute present in kg of solvent. Hence, molality of given solution is calculated as follows.

$Molality = \frac{no. of moles}{mass of solvent (in kg)}\\= \frac{0.793 mol}{0.758 kg}\\= 1.05 m$

Now, the values of $K_b$ is calculated as follows.

$\Delta T_{b} = i\times K_{b} \times m$

where,

i = Van't Hoff factor = 1 (for chloroform)

m = molality

$K_{b}$ = molal boiling point elevation constant

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$\Delta T_{b} = i\times K_{b} \times m\\3.80^{o}C = 1 \times K_{b} \times 1.05 m\\K_{b} = 3.62^{o}C/m$

Thus, we can conclude that the value of $K_{b}$ for chloroform is $3.62^{o}C/m$ when 0.793 moles of solute in 0.758 kg changes the boiling point by 3.80 °C.

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs.

iragen [17]

Answer:

Solid:- Particles vibrate in a rigid structure and do not move relative to their neighbors.

Liquid:- It takes the shape of its container but keeps a constant volume.

Gas:- Particles move rapidly and independently of each other.

Plasma:- It is the most common state of matter in the universe.

Explanation:

Solids are one of the three states of matter and, unlike liquids or gases, they have a definite shape that is not easy to change. Different solids have particular properties such as stretch, STRENGTH, or hardness that make them useful for different jobs.

A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a (nearly) constant volume independent of pressure

Gas is a state of matter that has no fixed shape and no fixed volume. Gases have lower density than other states of matter, such as solids and liquids. When more gas particles enter a container, there is less space for the particles to spread out, and they become compressed. The particles exert more force on the interior volume of the container.

A plasma is a gas that has been energized to the point that some of the electrons break free from, but travel with, their nucleus.
