I believe the best reason as for why carbon is the basis of organic chemistry would be D. Carbon can bond with hydrogen.
The percent yield of a chemical reaction is calculated by dividing the actual yield (determined through experimentation) by the theoretical yield (calculations). The percent yield is a great way of determining the efficiency of a reaction. For this problem, the percent yield is 83.93% as given by the solution:
% yield = (47/56)*100 = 83.93%
First, let's determine the number of moles of carbon atoms by using molar mass. Then, using Avogadro's number, we can find the number of C atoms:
*1 mole of C3H8O= (12.0x3)+(1.0x8)+(16.0x1) = 60.0g/mol
25.0 grams C3H8O x (1 mole C3H8O/60.0 grams) = 0.417 mol
0.417mol C3H8O has (3 x 0.417 moles) C atoms = 1.251 moles C atoms
1.251 moles C atoms x(6.022x10^23 atoms/mol) = 9.42x10^23 C atoms.
The answer is in 3 significant figures, as that's what we have in the given, and we matched it with our rounding of the atomic masses from the periodic table.
You can do this all in one equation written left to right, just exclude the intermediate answers. Just easier to show it this way on the computer screen.
Answer:
Carcinogens are difficult to identify because there may be a long lag time between exposure to the agent and the detectable onset of cancer
