Answer:

$CH_3 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 CHO + 2[Ag(NH_3)_2]+ 3 H_2 O$ = $CH_3 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 COOH +2Ag + 4NH_3$

Explanation:

Tollens test is carried out to perceive difference between aldehydes and ketones on the basis of their capability to oxidized easily.

when Tollens react with aldehyde (heptanal) , a silver mirror is form on inner side of container.

The reaction between tollens and heptanal is given as

$CH_3 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 CHO + 2[Ag(NH_3)_2]+ 3 H_2 O$ = $CH_3 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 COOH +2Ag + 4NH_3$

Answer:

Barium-138

Explanation:

The mass number is the atomic number + the number of neutrons. ... Identify the atom whose nucleus is composed of 56 protons and 82 neutrons. Barium-138 (the number of protons identifies the atom) Gallium has two naturally occurring isotopes: Ga-69 with a mass of 68.9256 amu and a natural abundance of 60.11% and Ga-71.
