The carbon-nitrogen bond in formamide, HCONH2, has been shown to have a bond length that is in between a typical C-N single bond

and a C=N double bond. Provide an explanation for this observation, using relevant chemical structures to support your explanation.​

The true structure of HCONH2 is a resonance hybrid of two structures.

Linus Pauling introduced the idea of resonance to explain the observed properties and bond lengths of some compounds.

Resonance occurs where there is a movement of electrons within a molecule. This electron redistribution affects properties of the molecule such as bond lengths and bond distances.

Since the lone pair on the nitrogen of the amine group participates in resonance with the carbonyl moiety in the molecule, a resonance is set up as shown in the image attached to this answer.

This resonance accounts for the fact that the HCONH2 has been shown to have a bond length that is in between a typical C-N single bond and a C=N double bond.

Assume a gasoline is isooctane, which has a density of 0.692 g/ml. What is the mass of 3.8 gal of the gasoline (1 gal = 3.78 l)?
sveticcg [70]

Density is the ratio of mass to the volume.

The mathematical expression is given as:

density=\frac{mass}{volume}

Now, density of isooctane = 0.692 g/mL

Volume  = 3.8 gal

Since, 1 gallon = 3.78 L

So, 3.8 gal = 3.78 L\times 3.8

= 14.364 L

As, 1 L = 1000 mL

Therefore, 14.364 L= 14.364 L\times 1000 mL

Volume in mL = 14364 mL

Put the values,

0.692 g/mL=\frac{mass}{14364 mL}

m = 0.692 g/mL\times 14364 mL

= 9939.888 g

Hence, mass of 3.8 gal of the gasoline is 9939.888 g.
