This is a monounsaturated fatty acid .
Saturated fatty acids are those where all the C atoms are bonded by single bonds.
When they are bonded by single bonds, each C has the maximum amount of H atoms it can bond to. It’s then saturated with H atoms.
When there are fatty acids with double bonds, then they are called unsaturated bonds as they don’t have the maximum number of H atoms.
The fatty acid in the question all the C atoms are bonded by single bonds except for one double bond , therefore it’s monounsaturated fatty acid

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

\°C=5.8x10^3\°C

\°F=1.1x10^4\°F

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the calculation of the temperature in degree Celsius we subtract 273.15 to the given temperature in kelvins:

\°C=6100-273.15\\\\\°C=5.8x10^3\°C

Next, by applying the following equation we compute it in degree Fahrenheit:

\°F=(5.8x10^{3}*9/5) + 32\\\\\°F=1.1x10^4\°F

Clearly, since the initial unit has two significant figures the computed units also show two significant figures.

Regards.

Iodine is blue-black, crystalline, and solid. It sublimes to a violet-colored gas and reacts with aluminum and many other metals
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

  • blue-black PHYSICAL PROPERTY
  • crystalline PHYSICAL PROPERTY
  • solid PHYSICAL PROPERTY
  • sublimes to a violet-colored gas PHYSICAL PROPERTY
  • reacts with aluminum and many other metals CHEMICAL PROPERTY

Explanation:

Chemical properties are visible through chemical reactions, in which the chemical identity changes to form new substances. On the other hand, physical properties are evident without a change in the identity of a substance.

<em />

<em>Which of these five properties are physical and which are chemical?</em>

  • blue-black PHYSICAL PROPERTY
  • crystalline PHYSICAL PROPERTY
  • solid PHYSICAL PROPERTY
  • sublimes to a violet-colored gas PHYSICAL PROPERTY
  • reacts with aluminum and many other metals CHEMICAL PROPERTY

A compound contains 10.13% C and 89.87% Cl (by mass). Determine both the empirical formula and the molecular formula of the comp
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The empirical formula is = CCl_3

The molecular formula = C_2Cl_6

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

% of C = 10.13

Molar mass of C = 12.0107 g/mol

% moles of C = 10.13 / 12.0107 = 0.8434

% of Cl = 89.87

Molar mass of Cl = 35.453 g/mol

% moles of Cl = 89.87 / 35.453 = 2.5349

Taking the simplest ratio for C and Cl as:

0.8434 : 2.5349

= 1 : 3

The empirical formula is = CCl_3

Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.

Thus,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...

Mass from the Empirical formula = 12*1 + 3*35.5 = 118.5 g/mol

Molar mass = 237 g/mol

So,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

237 = n × 118.5

⇒ n ≅ 2

The molecular formula = C_2Cl_6

The correct answer is Hot water increases the collision rate of molecules, causing the reaction to occur faster.

Explanation:

Temperature is directly related to the kinetic energy or movement of molecules in a substance. In this context, a higher temperature leads to more kinetic energy or more collision between molecules. At the same time, a chemical reaction involves molecules of two or more substances colliding and creating bonds to form new substances. This implies an increase in temperature means molecules colliding faster, new substances forming in a shorter time, and therefore a faster chemical reaction. According to this, the first answer is correct.

Paul [167]

Answer:

a mixture

Explanation:

A mixture is a material made up of two or more components joined together, but not chemically combined. In a mixture, a chemical reaction does not occur and each of its components maintains its identity and chemical properties.

A compound is a substance formed by the chemical combination of two or more different elements from the periodic table. The elements of a compound cannot be divided or separated by physical processes. They are not mixtures or alloys

An element is a type of matter made up of atoms of the same class.  It is an atom with unique physical characteristics, that substance that cannot be decomposed by a chemical reaction.
