Answer:

See Explanation and image attached

Explanation:

Methane is an alkane. The commonest chemical reaction that alkanes undergo is substitution. During a substitution reaction, one or more atoms of hydrogen is/are replaced in the alkane.

In methane, in the presence of sunlight and molecular chlorine gas, a homolytic fission of Cl2 occurs to yield chlorine radicals in an initiation step.

The propagation steps involve reaction of the methane with chlorine radicals. Certain intermediates continue to be formed along the way until the tetrachlorination product is finally obtained.

Phosgene is a highly toxic gas made up of carbon, oxygen, and chlorine atoms. Its density at 1.05 atm and 258C is 4.24 g/L. (a)
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Molar mass = 99 g/mol

Explanation:

Phosgene contains carbon, oxygen and chlorine atoms. Its molecular formular is; COCl2

The molar mass is given as the sum off the individual atomic mass of the elements in the compound.

Molar mass = C + O + 2Cl

Molar mass = 12 + 16 + 2(35.5)

Molar mass = 99 g/mol

A gas has an initial volume of 15 L. If the temperature increases from 330 K to 450 K, what is the new volume.
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

20.(45)L or about 20.4545L

Explanation:

PV = nRT

Where:

P - pressure

V - volume

n - number of particle moles

R - a constant

T - temperature in K

We can assume the P and n (and definitely R) stay the same, so we infer that

V_1 = \frac{nRT_1}{P} = 15L\\V_2 = \frac{nRT_2}{P}\\V_1 / V_2 = \frac{nRT_1}{P} / \frac{nRT_2}{P} = \frac{T_1}{T_2}\\\\15L / V_2 = \frac{330K}{450K} = \frac{11}{15}\\\\V_2 = 15L \cdot \frac{15}{11} = 20.(45)L

A molecule of acetone and a molecule of propyl aldehyde are both made from 3 carbon atoms, 6 hydrogen atoms, and 1 oxygen atom.
TEA [102]

Explanation:

The structures of both acetone and propanal are shown below:

In the formula of propanal there is -CHO functional group at the end.

In acetone -CO- group is present in the middle that is on the second carbon.

The molecular formula is C3H6O.

Both have same molecular formula but different structural formulas.
