What happens to the boiling point of hydrocarbon compounds when the number of carbon atom increases

Chemistry
1 answer:
kumpel [21]2 years ago
3 0
The boiling points of alkanes increases with increasing number of carbons. This is because the intermolecular attractive forces, although individually weak, become cumulatively more significant as the number of atoms and electrons in the molecule increases.



So therefore your answer choice will increase. (B)

Which of the following describes a condition in which an individual would not hear an echo?
egoroff_w [7]

The correct answer is D.

Echo refers to the sound that is heard when a sound wave is reflected back from a surface. An echo sound is made when a sound wave traveled through the air, hit a hard surface and get reflected back. Generally, hard surfaces reflect sound wave while soft surfaces absorb sound waves. Reflected sound waves are used in application of some devices that are used in range and direction finding.

Which represents the balanced nuclear equation for the beta plus decay of C-11?
slavikrds [6]
Nuclear reaction: ¹¹C → ¹¹B + e⁺(positron) + ve(electron neutrino).<span><span><span><span>
</span></span></span></span>Beta decay is radioactive decay<span> in which a beta ray and a neutrino are emitted from an atomic nucleus.
There are two types of beta decay: beta minus and beta plus. In beta minus decay, neutron is converted to a proton and an electron and an electron antineutrino and in beta plus decay, a proton is converted to a neutron and positron and an electron neutrino, so mass number does not change.</span>

Which element, when combined with Iodine, would most likely form an ionic compound?
uranmaximum [27]

In an ionic compound the atoms are linked via ionic bonds. These are formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to the other. The atom that loses electrons gains a positive charge whereas the atom that accepts electrons gains a negative. This happens in accordance with the octet rule wherein each atom is surrounded by 8 electrons

In the given example:

The valence electron configuration of Iodine (I) = 5s²5p⁵

It needs only one electron to complete its octet.

In the given options:

K = 4s¹

C = 2s²2p²

Cl = 3s²3p⁵

P = 3s²3p³

Thus K can donate its valence electron to Iodine. As a result K, will gain a stable noble gas configuration of argon while iodine would gain an octet. This would also balance the charges as K⁺I⁻ creating a neutral molecule.

Ans: Potassium (K)

Calculate the mass of calcium chloride that contains 3.20 x 1024 atoms of chlorine.
frez [133]

Answer:

294.87 gm  CaCl_2

Explanation:

The computation of the  mass of calcium chloride is shown below:

But before that following calculations need to be done

Number of moles of chlorine atom is

= 3.20 × 10^24 ÷ 6.022 × 10^23

= 5.314 moles

As we know that

1 mole CaCl_2 have the 2 moles of chlorine atoms

Now 5.341 mole chloride atoms would be

= 1 ÷ 2 × 5.314

= 2.657 moles

Now

Mass of CaCl_2 = Number of moles × molar mass of  CaCl_2

= 2.657 moles × 110.98 g/mol

= 294.87 gm  CaCl_2
