Chemistry
1 answer:
slega [8]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The most stable conformation of the following compound has

A. An axial methyl group and an axial ethyl group.

B. An axial methyl group and an equatorial ethyl group.

C. An axial tert-butyl group.

D. An equatorial methyl group and an equatorial ethyl group.

E. An equatorial methyl group and an axial ethyl group.

Explanation:

The most stable conformation in the cyclohexane ring is the one in which both the substituents are in the equatorial position.

Among the given options,

option D  An equatorial methyl group and an equatorial ethyl group.

When the substituents in the cyclohexane ring are in equatorial positions then, the steric repulsions will be reduced.

Answer is option D.

How does the octet rule allow you to predict the charge an ion will have?
photoshop1234 [79]
 <span>Because of the octet rule, it is easy to predict the charge of the ion of an element. Look at the number of valence electrons the element has. If it is between 1 and 4 the atom will most likely loose those electrons to become stable, making it a positive ion with the charge of the number of electrons it will lose. If it has between 4 and 8 valence electrons the atom will most likely gain electrons to achieve a full outer ring of 8 electrons. Its atom will have a negative charge of the number of electrons it needs to have 8 total. Hope I Helped If You Don't Mind May I Have A Brainliest Answer Please? :)</span>

Changing the number of _____ would change an atom into an atom of a different element. changing the number of _____ would change
AURORKA [14]
Answer: Protons

WHY?
Changing electrons will only result in the same element having different charges and hence, changing it's chemical properties.

Changing neutrons will not change an element but it will result in an isotope forming instead. (Isotopes are elements of the same type with different neutron numbers.)

However, changing the proton number would immediately change the nucleus composition, resulting in a change in element with a negative charge as there are more electrons than protons. This results in a expansion in valance electrons's distance from the nucleus. This results in a change in chemical properties of the element.

Therefore, a change in Protons is the answer.

What is the mass in grams of 1 liter of nitrogen gas?
AlladinOne [14]

Assuming the volume of the gas is measured at standard temperature and pressure, Then one mole of the Gas would occupy 22.4 liters.

Therefore, 1 liter is 1/224 moles

one mole of nitrogen 14 is 14

Therefore 1 liter of the nitrogen weighs 1/224×14

0.0625 grams

How many neutrons are there in 9 molecules of P4 with mass number 31 and proton number 15?
aalyn [17]

A = mass number which is equal to the total number of protons + number of neutrons, Z= atomic number of any element which is also indicates Number of protons or number of electron in the given atom.


The formula to calculate neutron would be :

mass number - proton  

31   - 15     = 16

Thus 16 neutrons are found in one atom of P  

There are 4 atom in one molecule

Thus  

4 atom /1 molecule * 9 molecule * 16 neutron / 1 atom  

= 4*9*16= 576 neutrons
