Answer:

C. A long chain of carbon atoms with hydrogen atoms attached to them

Explanation:

For example, the main component of flour is starch and starch is a polymer.

Now, Starch is a polymeric carbohydrate that consists of a large number of glucose units which are bonded by chemical bonds known as glycosidic bond. It's also known that Starch is a white, tasteless and odorless powder that is not soluble in alcohol or even cold water.

Thus, we can say that polymer is a long chain of carbon atoms with hydrogen atoms attached to them.

Option C is correct.

As the ph approaches 0, what happens to the concentration of h3o+ ions?
natta225 [31]

We know that

pH = -log[H+]

the pH value falls in between 0- 7 for acids

As the pH value increases the concentration of [H+] increases.

similarly as the value of pH approaches 0, the concentration of H+ increases

The solution said to become more acidic

Also

[H+] X [OH-] = 10^-14

Thus pH + pOH = 14

hence the concentration of OH- decreases as the pH approaches zero

T<br> What type of bond is formed between the two nitrogen atoms in diatomic nitrogen, N2?
romanna [79]

Nitrogen is a diatomic molecule in the VA family on the periodic table. Nitrogen has five valence electrons, so it needs three more valence electrons to complete its octet. A nitrogen atom can fill its octet by sharing three electrons with another nitrogen atom, forming three covalent bonds, a so-called triple bond.

The compound dioxane, which is used as a solvent in various industrial processes is composed of C,H, and O atoms. Combustion of
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The correct formula of dioxane is C₄H₈O₂.

Explanation:

Given data:

mass of dioxane= 2.23 g

mass of water = 1.802 g

mass of carbon dioxide = 4.401 g

molar mass of dioxane = 88.1 g / mol

Molecular formula of dioxane = ?

Solution:

percentage of carbon = (4.401 g/2.23 g ) × (12 /44) × 100

                                     =  (1.98 × 0.273) × 100 = 54.1

percentage of hydrogen =  (1.802 g/ 2.23 g) × (2.016 /18.016) × 100

                                         = (0.81 × 0.112) × 100 = 9.072

percentage of oxygen = 100 - (54.1 + 9.072)

                                     = 100 - 63.172 = 36.828

Now we will determine the number of grams atoms of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

No. of gram atoms of carbon = 54.1 /12 = 4.51

No. of gram atoms of hydrogen = 9.072 / 1.008 = 9

No. of gram atoms of oxygen = 36.828 / 16 = 2.302

Atomic ratio:

    C :H :O               4.51/ 2.302    :   9 / 2.302   :  2.302 /2.302

    C :H :O                2 : 4 : 1

Molecular formula:

   Molecular formula = n × (empirical formula)

   n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

   empirical formula mass= 2 × 12 + 4 × 1.008  + 1 × 16

    empirical formula mass= 24+ 4.032 +16 = 44.032

                 n = 88.1 / 44.032 = 2

        Molecular formula = n × (empirical formula)

        Molecular formula = 2 × (C₂H₄O)

         Molecular formula = C₄H₈O₂

Write one paragraph!!!!!reasons why the minimum wage should be increased.
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

There are pros and cons, I will explain mostly pros. After all the pros outweigh the cons.

Explanation:

Increasing the minimum wage can be letting people work less or earn more. This can have a major impact on the economy in America. It can reduce poverty within some families households. A con concerning this though is that people who work for low pay can lose their jobs and their family can become poor. It can also affect the federal minimum wage.
