Answer: The correct answer (C).

Explanation:

Binary compounds: These are the type of chemical compounds which are composed of two different elements. They cannot be further simplified by any chemical methods.

Here , in given option carbon dioxide is a binary compound made up of carbon and oxygen element.

Where as barium and beryllium are pure elements and calcium hydroxide is compound made up of three elements : calcium, hydrogen and oxygen.

So, the correct answer (C).

A binary compound is a compound that contain two different chemical elements in it. These compounds may be molecular or may also exist in other forms such as solid. In this case Barium and Beryllium are not binary compounds since they are independent elements, Calcium hydroxide is also not a binary compound since it has more than two chemical elements. Therefore,carbon dioxide is the binary compound since it contains two chemical elements ( carbon and oxygen)

There are on average 43 g of sugar and 355 mL can of soda please calculate the molarity of sugar in the can of soda the molar ma

vfiekz [6]

Explanation:

Given :

Amount of solute - sucrose (C12H22O11) = 41 g

Amount of solvent -soda = 355-mL

Molarity of the solution with respect to sucrose= ?

Molarity(M) is a unit of concentration measuring the number of moles of a solute per liter of solution. The SI unit of molarity is mol/L.

Formula to find the molarity of solution :

Molarity =

Amount of solvent is given in mL, let’s convert to L :

1 L = 1000 mL

Therefore, 355 mL in L will be :

= 0.355 L

We have the amount of solute in g, let’s calculate the number of moles first :

Number of moles (n) =

Molar mass of C12H22O11 = 342.29 g/mol.

Therefore, n =

= 0.119 moles.

Provide one example of how life on Earth would not be possible without water based on its characteristics.

snow_lady [41]

Answer: ice is less dense than liquid water. If ice was more dense, Earth would freeze.

Explanation: There are many reasons why life on Earth depends on the characteristics of water. One could discuss hydrogen bonds and its role as a solvent, but the unusual property of water is is the change in density with change in temperature. Water is densest at 4 degC, which is why ice floats - it is less dense than cold water (it melts quickly in warm water, so density isn’t impotant at higher temperatures). Most liquids are less dense than the solid, frozen form. If this was the case with water, any ice that formed would sink, and sease would freeze from the bottom up. Furthermore, the lowest layers would be insulated and would not all melt in summer. Thus over time, the seas would become a thin layer of liquid water at best, over solid ice. Life could not develop without liquid seas. In addition, ice is reflective, reducing the amount of sunlight absorbed, further reducing temperatures. Without ocean circulation, polar areas would be even colder, and there would be no rain.
