Write the general formula of an alkane and use this to predict the 97th member

Chemistry
1 answer:
Licemer1 [7]2 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

The general formula of an alkane is given as;

        CₙH₂ₙ₊₂

n is the number of the member;

 For the 97th member in the series;

 n  = 97;

 2n + 2  = 2(97) + 2  = 196

So, the 97th member is;

                C₉₇H₁₉₆

This is how to apply the formula of alkanes which are saturated hydrocarbons to find any member of the series.

What is the empirical formula for a compound that is 43.6% phosphorus
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

d.   P2O5.

Explanation:

We find the ratio of the atoms by dividing the percentages by the relative atomic masses:

P :  43.6 / 30.974 = 1.4076

O:  56.4 / 15.999 =  3.5252

1.4076 : 3.5252

= 1 : 2.5

= 2:5.

So the answer is P2O5.

A cell with osmolarity measuring 300 mosm/l is placed in a beaker that contains a nacl solution with osmolarity of 150mosm/l. pr
tia_tia [17]
<span>My hypothesis is the the cell, having a higher osmolarity than the solution of of nacl in the beaker, will have an osmosis reaction releasing into the solution of nacl. This will continue until both cell and solution reach a balance.</span>

If you are supposed to put in 2/4 a cup sugar for a recipe, can you just put in a half cup of sugar?
natta225 [31]
I would assume so.

Given \frac{2}{4}, we can simplify the fraction to \frac{1}{2}

Both would obtain the same proportions, so I don't see why putting a half cup of sugar would make things any different.

Hope this is the answer you are looking for.

Define atomic numberand mass number. Which can vary without changing the identity of the element?
Volgvan

Explanation:

Atomic number is defined as the number of an element which represents total number of protons.

When an atom is neutral then it means it contains same number of protons and electrons.

On the other hand, atomic mass is defined as the sum of total number of protons and neutrons present in an atom.

Protons of every element remains fixed because it shows the identity of each element but if we change the number of neutrons then also identity of the atom will remain fixed. This is because changing the number of neutrons will not show any change in number of protons.

For example, ^{2}_{1}H and ^{3}_{1}H are isotopes of hydrogen and they have same number of protons but different number of neutrons.

Thus, we can conclude that number of neutrons can vary without changing the identity of the element.
