Answer: Option (3) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When an element exists in two or more different physical forms then they are known as allotropes.

For example, diamond and graphite are both allotropes of carbon.

In graphite, carbon atoms are joined together in sheets of six sided lattice. Whereas in diamond, carbon atoms are joined together in four cornered lattice.

Therefore, as these allotropes are made up of same element so they have similar chemical properties but different physical properties like melting point, boiling point etc.

Also, both of them have different molecular structure.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement the differ in their molecular structure and properties correctly describes diamond and graphite.

Which temperature is equal to 120. K?<br> (1) -153°C (3) +293°C<br> (2) -120.°C (4) +393°C
Marysya12 [62]
First of all, the formula for finding Kelvin is Celsius + 273
Therefore, if we subtract 273, we get the temperature in degrees
120 - 273 = - 153

Therefore, the answer is (1), or -153 degrees Celsius

Hope this helped!! :D

A typical deposit of cholesterol,C27H460,in an artery has a mass of 3.90mg.how many molecules of cholesterol are present in this
love history [14]

Answer:

6.074 X 10¹⁸ molecules.

Explanation:

Molecular mass(MM) of this compound C₂₇H₄₆O

= 27*(MM of C) + 46*(MM of H) + (MM of O)

= 27*(12.0107) + 46* (1.00784) + (15.999)

= 324.2889 + 46.36064 + 15.999

=386.64854 g

The mass of a mole of any compound is called it's molar mass. 1 molar mass has 6.022 X 10²³, or Avogadro's number, C₂₇H₄₆O molecules.

If 386.64854 g of C₂₇H₄₆O has 6.022 X 10²³ molecules of  cholesterol, then

3.9mg or 0.0039g of C₂₇H₄₆O will have how many molecules?..

Using unitary method:

Number of molecules = \frac{0.0039 * 6.022 *10^{23} }{386.64854}

= 6.074 X 10¹⁸ molecules.

The chemical equation, Cr + Fe(NO3)2 → Fe + Cr(NO3)3, is an example of which type of reaction?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Redox type

Explanation:

The reaction is:

2Cr +  3Fe(NO₃)₂ → 2Fe + 2Cr(NO₃)₃

2 moles of chromium can react to 3 moles of iron (II) nitrate in order to produce 2 moles of iron and 2 moles of chromium nitrate.

If we see oxidation state, we see that chromium changes from 0 to +3

Iron changed the oxidation state from +2 to 0

Remember that elements at ground state has 0, as oxidation state.

Iron is being reduced while chromium is oxidized. Then, the half reactions are:

Fe²⁺  +  2e⁻ ⇄  Fe    (Reduction)

Cr ⇄ Cr³⁺  +  3e⁻    (Oxidation)

When an element is being  reduced, while another is being oxidized, we are in prescence of a redox reaction.
