Which of the following hydrocarbons has a double bond in its carbon skeleton?1) C3H82) C2H63) CH44) C2H45) C2H2

Kipish [7]

Answer:

C₂H₄ (option number 4)

Explanation:

A hydrocarbon with a double bond in its carbon skeleton is an alkene and has the general form:

$C_nH_{2n}$ .

This is, the number of hydrogen atoms is twice the number of carbon atoms.

On the other hand, alkanes have only single bonds, and the compounds with a triple bond in its carbon skeleton are alkynes.

Review each choice:

1) C₃H₈:

In this case, the number of hydrogen atoms is 2×3 + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8, which is corresponds to an alkane, not an alkene.

2) C₂H₆

For this, the number of hydrogen atoms is 2 × 2 + 2 = 4 + 2 = 6. Again an alkane, not alkene.

3) CH₄

Hydrogen atoms: 1 × 2 + 2 = 4 ⇒ an alkane

4) C₂H₄

Hydrogen atoms: 2 × 2 = 4. This is precisely the relation for an alkene, so this is the hydrocarbon that has a double bond in its carbon skeleton.

The chemical formula may be writen as CH₂ = CH₂, to show the double bond.

So, this is the correct answer.

5) C₂H₂

Hydrogen atoms: 2 × 2 - 2 = 4 - 2 = 2. This relation of carbon and hydrogen atoms corresponds to a compound with triple bond, i.e an alkyne: CH≡CH.

PLEASE HELP Determine the number of neutrons for the given isotopes:

zepelin [54]

Helium = 1
Carbon = 8
Nitrogen = 8
Strontium = 52
Tellurium = 71

If you look on a periodic table, on each element there is a number on the top left. This represents the number of protons in an atom. Protons have a mass of 1 (in relative to Carbon-13)

If we take nitrogen-15 for example; The number 15 tells you that the isotope has a mass of 15. Now if you look on the periodic table, Nitrogen has a proton number of 7. Only protons and neutrons have a mass, electrons are considered to be negligable. Therefore the number of neutrons Nitrogen-15 contains is 15 - 7 = 8

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer : The partial pressure of $N_2,H_2\text{ and }NH_3$ at equilibrium are, 1.133, 2.009, 0.574 bar respectively. The total pressure at equilibrium is, 3.716 bar

Solution : Given,

Initial pressure of $N_2$ = 1.42 bar

Initial pressure of $H_2$ = 2.87 bar

$K_p$ = 0.036

The given equilibrium reaction is,

$N_2(g)+H_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g)$

Initially 1.42 2.87 0

At equilibrium (1.42-x) (2.87-3x) 2x

The expression of $K_p$ will be,

$K_p=\frac{(p_{NH_3})^2}{(p_{N_2})(p_{H_2})^3}$

Now put all the values of partial pressure, we get

$0.036=\frac{(2x)^2}{(1.42-x)\times (2.87-3x)^3}$

By solving the term x, we get

$x=0.287\text{ and }3.889$

From the values of 'x' we conclude that, x = 3.889 can not more than initial partial pressures. So, the value of 'x' which is equal to 3.889 is not consider.

Thus, the partial pressure of $NH_3$ at equilibrium = 2x = 2 × 0.287 = 0.574 bar

The partial pressure of $N_2$ at equilibrium = (1.42-x) = (1.42-0.287) = 1.133 bar

The partial pressure of $H_2$ at equilibrium = (2.87-3x) = [2.87-3(0.287)] = 2.009 bar

The total pressure at equilibrium = Partial pressure of $N_2$ + Partial pressure of $H_2$ + Partial pressure of $NH_3$

The total pressure at equilibrium = 1.133 + 2.009 + 0.574 = 3.716 bar

How many protons and electrons does oxygen have? What about hydrogen? Draw a model of each atom if that helps you think about th

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Two electrons fit in the first shell out from the nucleus and eight fit in the second. Every element with more protons than the two of Helium needs to work on shells outside the first one. one you get to ten, you have filled the first two shells.

In a water molecule, oxygen forms one covalent bond with EACH of TWO hydrogen atoms. As a result, the oxygen atom has a stable arrangement of 8 valence electrons. Each hydrogen atom forms only one bond because it needs only two electrons to be stable.
