Answer:

Option D. Saturated alkane

Explanation:

To know which option is correct, it is important that we know what saturated and unsaturated compounds are in this context.

Saturated hydrocarbons are compounds which has only carbon to carbon single bonds (C–C) in its chain. A very good example of such compound is the Alkanes.

Unsaturated hydrocarbons are compounds which has either a carbon to carbon double bond (C=C) or a carbon to carbon triple bond (C≡C) in its chain. Examples of such compounds include alkenes and alkynes.

Now, let us answer the question given above bearing the meaning of saturated and unsaturated compounds in mind.

The compound given above contains only carbon to carbon (C–C) single bond.

Therefore, the compound is a saturated alkane.

What’s the PH and OH- of 6.0 x 10^-10?
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is pH = 9.2;  [OH] = 1.58 x 10⁻⁵

Explanation:

Data

[H⁺] = 6.0 x 10⁻¹⁰ M

pH = ?

pH definition. pH measures the hydrogen concentration. pH measures the acidity and the alkalinity of a solution. A solution is acid if the pH goes from 0 to 6.9, a neutral solution has a pH of 7 and an alkali solution has a pH from 7.1 to 14.

pOH measures the [OH⁻] concentration

Formula

             pH = -log[H⁺]

             pH + pOH = 14

-Substitution

            pH = -log[6 x 10⁻¹⁰]

-Simplification

            pH = - (-9.2)

            pH = 9.2

-Calculate pOH

            pOH = 14 - pH

            pOH = 14 - 9.2

            pOH = 4.8      

-Calculate the concentration of OH⁻

           pOH = -log[OH⁻]

           [OH⁻] = -antilog4.8

           [OH] = 1.58 x 10⁻⁵

Why is denaturation dangerous for the body?
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Denaturation causes loss of enzyme activity which is necessary for biochemical reaction.

Hence many biological process(respiration,digestion,excretion) won't work properly.

Explanation:

Enzymes : These are biological catalyst made of proteins.E.g Pepsin, tyrosine (human digestion)

Denaturation: loss of Quaternary ,tertiary and secondary structure of proteins and nucleic acid because of extreme conditions of temperature , pressure ,pH etc.

When denaturation occur enzymes loss their specific structure, so they can't carry out various life process (e.g respiration, digestion ,excretion).

Enzymes are involved in all biological reaction and work only at optimum temperature ,pH and pressure(human body condition ).

Does every rock go through the rock cycle, from igneous to sedimentary to metamorphic each time around???
Alex17521 [72]
No it does not ALWAYS go through all the stages because each rock forms differently at different rates. Igneous rock can weather to sediement rock, or melt to magma, however this does not necessarily mean it does this every time. It all depends on the temperature, wind, and pressure/heat.

The energy transferred between samples of matter because of a difference in their temperatures is called a. heat. b. thermochemi
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

The energy transferred between samples of matter because of a difference in their temperatures is called a. heat.

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics establishes that when two bodies with different temperatures are put in contact they will find thermic equilibrium to a final temperature by transferring heat. Thus the correct answer is (a).

Thermochemistry is the study of the transformations of heat energy on the chemical reactions. Chemical kinetics is the study of the rate of chemical reactions. And temperature is the measure of the heat.
