What makes the periodic table arrangement so unique and useful?

Zepler [3.9K]

Elements are ordered from left to right, increasing atomic number as they go. The periodic table allows us to find out and predict things about elements that haven’t been discovered yet!

What is the iupac name of this structure?

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

3–ethyl–4–methylhexane.

Explanation:

To name the above compound, do the following:

1. Determine the functional group of the compound.

2. Locate the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound.

3. Identify the substituent group attached to the compound.

4. Give the substituent the lowest possible count.

5. Combine the above to name the compound.

Now, we shall name the compound given in the question above as follow:

1. The compound contains only single bond. Therefore, the compound belong to the alkane family.

2. The longest continuous carbon chain is 6 i.e hexane.

3. The substituent group attached are:

i. Methyl, CH3.

ii. Ethyl, CH2CH3.

4. we shall name the substituents alphabetically i.e ethly will come before methyl. Therefore,

Ethyl is located at carbon 3.

Methy is located at carbon 4.

5. Therefore, the name of the compound is:

3–ethyl–4–methylhexane.

A chemist mixes 75.0 g of an unknown substance at 96.5°C with 1,150 g of water at 25.0°C. If the final temperature of the system

AleksAgata [21]

To do this problem it is necessary to take into account that the heat given by the unknown substance is equal to the heat absorbed by the water, but considering the correct sign:

$-m\cdot c_e\cdot \Delta T = m_w\cdot c_e_w\cdot \Delta T_w$

Clearing the specific heat of the unknown substance:

$c_e = \frac{m_w\cdot c_e_w\cdot \Delta T_w}{m\cdot \Delta T} = -\frac{1\ 150\ g\cdot 4.184\frac{J}{g\cdot ^\circ C}\cdot (37.1 - 25.0)^\circ C}{75\ g\cdot (37.1 - 96.5)^\circ C}$

$c_e = -\frac{1\ 150\ g\cdot 4.184\frac{J}{g\cdot ^\circ C}\cdot 12.1^\circ C}{75\ g\cdot (-59.4)^\circ C} = \bf 13.07\frac{J}{g\cdot ^\circ C}$

MgNH4PO4•6H2O loses H2O in a stepwise fashion as it is heated. Between 40 degrees celsius and 60 degrees celsius, the monohydrat

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

$\%\ Composition\ of\ phosphorus=20.00\ \%$

Explanation:

The molecular formula of the monohydrate formed = $MgNH_4PO_4.H_2O$

The molecular mass of the monohydrate formed = $Mass_{Mg}+Mass_{N}+6\times Mass_{H}+5\times Mass_O$

So, Mass = 24 + 14 + 6 × 1 + 5 × 16 = 155 g

Mass of phosphorus = 31 g

Thus,

$\%\ Composition\ of\ phosphorus =\frac{Mass_{phosphorus}}{Total\ mass}\times 100$

$\%\ Composition\ of\ phosphorus=\frac{31}{155}\times 100$

$\%\ Composition\ of\ phosphorus=20.00\ \%$

#12 please! worth 40 points

Serga [27]

Okay so because of the difference in density a simple method for telling the difference between the two is to put a sample in a container with oil, because water has a higher density than the oil it would sink to the bottom but alcohol on the other hand is lighter than oil and would float on top of the oil.

However with this question I think that what you would do is use the ice to find out what the substance is, it would float on top of the liquid if it were water because the water is denser than ice but the ice would sink if it was alcohol because the alcohol is less dense than ice.

I hope this helps you, good luck : )
