ipn [44]3 years ago

Answer:

alkenes and alkynes are considered as unsaturated hydrocarbons because they are capable of reacting with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst to form a saturated hydrocarbon (alkanes)

Explanation:

A saturated compound contains a chain of carbon atoms joined by single bonds, with hydrogen atoms attached to each carbon atom.  

Propane for example, CH₃-CH₂-CH₃.  

It is saturated because all the carbon atoms holds maximum number of hydrogen atoms.  

Alkenes such as Propene (CH₂=CH-CH₃) and alkynes like Propyne,

(CH₃-C≡C-H) are unsaturated because the central carbon atoms contain less number of hydrogen atoms than they possibly could.

A bathtub is filled with 100 L of water. A cat jumps in and the volume rises to 125 L. If the cat has a mass of
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 3.2 g/L</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume} \\

From the question

mass of cat = 400 g

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 125 - 100 = 25 L

The density of the cat is

density =  \frac{400}{125}  =  \frac{16}{5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>3.2 g/L</h3>

Hope this helps you

A green laser pointer emits light with a wavelength of 542 nm. What is the frequency of this light?
ehidna [41]
As we know that wavelength and frequency is inversely proportional to each other. Greater the wavelength smaller the frequency and vice versa.
 
Solution:


The relation between wavelength and frequency is as follow,

υ = c / λ

where
            υ = frequency = ?
            c = velocity of light = 3.0 × 10⁸ ms⁻¹
            λ = wavenumber = 542 nm = 542 × 10⁻⁹ m
Putting the given values,
    
            υ = 3.0 × 10⁸ ms⁻¹ / 542 × 10⁻⁹ m
Result:
            υ = 5.53 × 10¹⁴ s⁻¹

The best answer among the choices is option D. New substances are being formed will best explain that this process is a chemical change. Although, it cannot be seen directly we knew that an acid and base will undergo neutralization reaction forming a salt and water. The heat given off by the reaction can be a parameter however it does not only happens for reactions. It can also happen when dissolving substances.
