Answer:
The OH group
Explanation:
Benzhydrol contains OH hydroxyl group in its molecule while fluorene does not. At first glance, one would think that OH, which contributes to hydrogen bonding would causes melting point of benzhydrol to be higher than fluorene. <em>However, </em>the structure of benzhydrol, which is 2 benzene rings connected to center hydroxyl carbon (PhCOHPh), allows for each benzene rings in benzhydrol to rotate until both rings are perpendicular to minimize repulsive force. This prevents the molecule from stacking on each other due to its non flat shape, and thus, lowering its melting point in contrast to flat fluorene molecule.
C. Calcium is your best bet. Calcium chloride is amongst inorganic compounds.
Answer:-
27.38%
Explanation:-
Molecular weight of sodium hydrogen carbonate NaHCO3
= 23 x 1 + 1 x 1 + 12 x 1 + 16 x 3
= 84 gram
Total sodium Na present in NaHCO3 = 23 x 1 = 23 gram
Percentage of sodium present=
Total sodium x 100/ (Total molecular weight)
= 23 x 100 / 84
= 27.38 %
