C. The gravity on the Moon is less than the gravity on Earth.

Explanation:

The weight of Neil Armstrong changed because the gravity on the Moon is less than the gravity on earth. We can infer that the gravity on moon is one-sixth the gravity earth.

  • Mass of Armstrong on earth and moon is the same. Mass is the quantity of matter contained in a substance. Since he has the same quantity of matter on earth and moon, his mass will be the same.

Weight is a function of mass and gravity on a body.

Since his weight reduced, we can infer that the gravity on the moon is lesser:

        Weight = mass x gravity.

Elenna [48]

Answer:

A,D,E,F

Explanation:

A.Ketones generally have lower boiling points in relation to alcohols because of the intermolecular hydrogen bonds.

D.Aldehyde group is known for this C=O group in which Carbon has a double bond with Oxygen.

E. Aldehydes and Ketones can’t hydrogen bond with each other but they can hydrogen bond with water

F. Formaldehyde used in the laboratory for preservation is a liquid at room temperature while propanol which has more carbon is gaseous

B is wrong because as the Carbon increases the solubility in water decreases

C is wrong because 2-butanol has a bp of 100 degree celsius while butanal has a bp of around 74.

Why is a phenol more acidic than a regular alcohol? Group of answer choices
Aleks [24]

Answer:

a.Phenols have the ability to spread out the negative charge that forms.

Explanation:

This happens because of  the aromatic ring the phenols have. When loosing the proton, the anion formed have different resonance isomers due to the double bonds in the aromatic ring. This resonance makes the anion more stable and prevents the reaction going backwards.

On the other hand, regular alcohol doesn't have resonace and the reaction of loosing the proton goes leftward and righward: is in equilibrium.

That equilibrium decreases the acidity of the alcohol.
