Answer:

The correct option is;

A. Branched chain alkanes

Explanation:

By the process of cracking of petroleum, higher quality petrol are formed by converting straight chain petrol to branched petrol, which are the grade of petrol that burns more smoothly and therefore efficiently within internal combustion engines

The cracking process includes;

a) The conversion of alkanes which are large molecules into branched octanes

b) The conversion of alkanes with straight chain into branched chain alkanes

c) The formation of a branched chain alkane and an alkene from straight chain alkanes

d) The formation of branched chain alkane and hydrogen gas from a straight chain alkane.

ch sulfide (ZnS) occurs in the zinc blende crystal structure, (a) If 254 g of ZnS contains 170 g of Zn, what is the mass ratio o

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The mass ratio of zinc to sulfide is 85:42.

2.5559 kg of Zn are in 3.82 kg of ZnS.

Explanation:

a) Mass of zinc sulfide = 254 g

Mass of zinc in a zinc sulfide sample = 170 g

Mass of sulfide in zinc sulfide sample = x

254 g = 170 g+ x

x = 84 g

The mass ratio of zinc to sulfide:

$\frac{170 g}{84 g}=\frac{85}{42}$

b) Mass of zincsulfide sample = 3.83 kg

The mass ratio of zinc to sulfide is 85:42.

Let the mass of zinc and sulfide be 85x and 42x respectively:

85 x+ 42 x=3.82 kg

x =0.03007 kg

Mass of an zinc= 85x=85 × 0.03007 kg= 2.5559 kg
