Answer:
2-pentanone
Explanation:
The oxygen atom is attached to the 2nd carbon atom in the longest linear chain, thus the prefix 2. the longest continuous carbon chain has five carbon atoms giving it the prefix pent-. the chemical is a ketone thus the suffix none.
Answer:
five half lives
Explanation:
Half-life is the time required for a quantity to reduce to half of its initial value.
How many half lives it would take to reach 3.13% form 100% of it's initial concentration:
100% - 50% : First Half life
50% - 25%: Second Half life
25% - 12.5%: Third Half life
12.5% - 6.25%: Fourth Half life
6.25% - 3.125%: Fifth Half life
This means it would take five half lives to get to 3.125% (≈ 3.13%) of it's original concentration.
The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
An unknown compound has the following chemical formula:
N2Ox
where x stands for a whole number.
Measurements also show that a certain sample of the unknown compound contains 3.7 mol of oxygen and 2.45 mol of nitrogen.
Write the complete chemical formula for the unknown compound.
Answer:
The complete formula of the compound is N2O3.
Explanation:
Given;
Number of moles of N = 2.45 moles
Number of moles of O = 3.7 moles
Chemical formula of unknown compound = N2Ox
From the ratio of the number of moles of N to O;
2/x = 2.45/3.7
2 * 3.7 = x * 2.45
x = 2 * 3.7/ 2.45
x =3
Hence the complete formula of the compound is N2O3.
