Acetaldehyde is an organic compound (a compound containing C atoms) composed of a carbonyl group. On the other hand, a carbonyl group is a functional group containing C = O. The hybrid orbitals of a compound determines the number pi and s orbitals in the electronic configuration. For a single bond, there are two s orbitals. For double bonds, on the other hand, the number of s orbital bond is 1 while the number of pi bonds is 2. For triple bonds, there are three pi bonds present in the cloud.
Thus for a c = O bond, the atomic orbital configuration is sp3 containing 1 s orbital and 2 pi bonds.
In order to answer this, we mus know the data for the heat of combustion of propane. This is an empirical data that you can search online. The heat of combustion is -2220 kJ/mol. The molar mass of propane of 44.1 g/mol. The solution is as follows:
ΔH = -2220 kJ/mol (1 mol/44.1 g)(1000g/1kg)(20 kg)
<em>ΔH = -1006802.721 kJ or -1 GJ</em>
I believe B is the correct answer
The spoon should be connected to the negative terminal of the battery. The other electrode should be made of silver.
