Answer:

All carbon atoms can be connected to a continuous chain in the straight-chain alkane. In alkanes of a branched-chain, all carbon atoms cannot be connected to a continuous chain as a branch or side chain is part of the carbon chain.

Answer:

In the straight-chain alkanes, each carbon is bound to its two neighbors and to two hydrogen atoms. (In red) Exceptions are the two terminal carbon nuclei, which are bound to only one carbon atom and three hydrogen atoms. (In blue)

The balanced reaction is 3 Ca ( s ) + N 2 ( g ) → Ca 3 N 2 ( s ).

<u>Explanation</u>:

A chemical equation is said to be balanced when the total number of atoms present on the reactants side is equal to the total number of atoms present on the product side.

The unbalanced chemical equation is as follows,

Ca ( s ) + N 2 ( g ) → Ca 3 N 2 ( s )

To balance this equation, you need to look at how many atoms of each element are present on each side of the chemical equation.

Calcium has 1 atom on the reactant and 3 on the products side. To balance the reaction we need to multiply the calcium atom by 3 on the reactants side.

3 Ca ( s ) + N 2 ( g ) → Ca 3 N 2 ( s )

Now Nitrogen has a coefficient of 2 on both sides of the reaction. Hence the balanced chemical equation will thus be

3 Ca ( s ) + N 2 ( g ) → Ca 3 N 2 ( s )

Which of the species below can act as a lewis base? bf3 nf3 oh− alcl3?

IRINA_888 [86]

Among BF₃, NF₃, OH⁻ and ALCl₃ both NF₃ and OH⁻ acts as a lewis base.

Explaination:
According to lewis theory of acid and base, base is a specie which has either lone pair of electrons or is negatively charged. So, in the given compounds Nitrogen trifluoride contain lone pair of electron on nitrogen and Hydroxide contains a negative charge on oxygen. And botha are capable to donate these electrons to a lewis acid (electrophiles).

Can the excess reactant control the percentage yield

katrin2010 [14]

Explanation:

when one reactants is in excess, there will always be some left over. The other reactants becomes limiting factor and controls show much of each product is produced.while using excess percentage yields this is at the expense of atom economy.
