Answer: Undecane, C11H24 is a liquid hydrocarbon from the alkane homologue ( family ).
Explanation:
All hydrocarbons burn in air to release H20 and CO2.
Combustion of hydrocarbons thus increases the percentage of CO2 present in the atmosphere which is not so good as CO2 is a greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gases produce the greenhouse effect. The green house effect is the warming effect produced when gases present in the atmosphere allow and retain the radiation from the sun to the earth. Examples of greenhouse gases are CO2, CH4, SO3, NO, CFCs. The greenhouse effect leads to an increase in the temperature of the earth subsequently leading to (I) melting of large amounts of ice at the poles causing flooding. (II) rapid evaporation of water from Earth’s surface. (III) decrease in crop yield.
Also, high concentration CFCs ( chlorofluorocarbons ), as widely used in aerosols, coolants and packaging foams, in the atmosphere depletes the ozone layer leading to global warming. In 1996 an international agreement was reached for a complete ban of CFCs and more countries are now going Green ( using alternative energy sources ) so as to minimize emissions of these greenhouse gases
Method:
1) Find the atomic number in a periodic table: the number of electrons equal the atomic number
2) Use Aufbau rule

Answer:
What is the new volume if the temperature is constant? V=2.50L. P = lookPa. P2=40k Pa. V2 = x. PV = P2 ... If a sample of gas occupies 6.8 L at 327°C
Answer:
Ge only has 2 pair of unpaired electrons.
Explanation:
Answer:
1.8 × 10² s
Explanation:
Let's consider the reduction that occurs upon the electroplating of copper.
Cu²⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻ ⇒ Cu(s)
We will establish the following relationships:
- 1 g = 1,000 mg
- The molar mass of Cu is 63.55 g/mol
- When 1 mole of Cu is deposited, 2 moles of electrons circulate.
- The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96,486 C (Faraday's constant).
- 1 A = 1 C/s
The time that it would take for 336 mg of copper to be plated at a current of 5.6 A is:
