Answer:
The answer is O-H.
Explanation:
This is because when you subtract their EN values you get 1.4, and that is in the range of the polar covalent bond values.
2-Methyl-4-oxo-pentanoic acid is unlikely to produce 2-Methyl-3-butanone upon strong heating.
Upon heating, the β ketoacid becomes unstable and decarboxylates, leading to the formation of the methyl ketone.
A carboxylic acid is an organic acid that contains a carboxyl group (C(=O)OH) attached to an R-group. The general formula of a carboxylic acid is R−COOH or R−CO2H, with R referring to the alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, or other group.
Carboxylic acids occur widely. Important examples include the amino acids and fatty acids. Deprotonation of a carboxylic acid gives a carboxylate anion.
Full question :
Q. Which reactant is unlikely to produce the indicated product upon strong heating?
- A) 2,2-Dimethylpropanedioic acid 2-methylpropanoic acid
- B) 2-Ethylpropanedioic acid Butanoic acid
- C) 2-Methyl-3-oxo-pentanoic acid 3-Pentanone
- D) 2-Methyl-4-oxo-pentanoic acid 2-Methyl-3-butanone

<span>Answer:
(16.2 g C2H6O2) / (62.0678 g C2H6O2/mol) / (0.0982 kg) = 3.9704 mol/kg = 3.9704 m
a.)
(3.9704 m) x (1.86 °C/m) = 7.38 °C change
0.00°C - 7.38 °C = - 7.38 °C
b.)
(3.9704 m) x (0.512 °C/m) = 2.03 °C change
100.00°C + 2.03 °C = 102.03 °C</span>
Circulating round the nucleus are the electrons in various orbits of different energy levels. Electrons are negatively charged and represented by the symbol 'e'. In the given image the number of protons are -6. Hence the element in question is Carbon as Carbon has the atomic number 6.
Answer:
18.0 g of mercury (11) oxide decomposes to produce 9.0 grams of mercury
Explanation:
Mercury oxide has molar mass of 216.6 g/ mol. It gas a molecular formula of HgO.
The decomposition of mercury oxide is given by the chemical equation below:
2HgO ----> 2Hg + O₂
2 moles of HgO decomposes to produce 1 mole of Hg
2 moles of HgO has a mass of 433.2 g
433.2 g of HgO produces 216.6 g of Hg
18.0 of HgO will produce 18 × 216.6/433.2 g of Hg = 9.0 g of Hg
Therefore, 18.0 g of mercury (11) oxide decomposes to produce 9.0 grams of mercury
