Describe a polyhydroxyl alcohol.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: To know that a certain compound is classified as an alcohol is through it molecular equation. Alcohols have at least 1 -OH or hydroxyl attachment. When we say polyhydroxyl that means there is 2 or more hydroxyl group in the structure of an alcohol. Ethylene glycol is an example. 
Answer 2
Answer: A polyhydroxyl alcohol is an alcohol that has two OH molecules attached. A regular alcohol has only one.

Abdid is an astronomer who has been observing objects that orbit the Sun in the asteroid belt. He finds a previously undiscovered round, rocky object that is not similar in shape to the rest of the asteroids. What has Abdid most likely found?

Answers

Answer:

Abdid has most likely found a new dwarf planet.

Explanation:

Dwarf planets are too small to be considered planets, but are also two big to be considered something else. A dwarf planet has to have sufficient mass so that the self-gravity is strong enough to create its round shape. Other qualifications of a dwarf planet is that it has not cleared the neighborhood around its orbit and it cannot be a satellite. Based on the location, size, and shape of the object Abdid has discovered, it is likely he discovered a new dwarf planet in the asterioid belt. One of the most famous is Ceres.

since it is round and it is the asteroid belt it is most likely that he found a dwarf planet 

What is a balanced equation for the neutralization of these two compounds? HCl
Ca(OH)2

Answers

In order to balance this, you have to count each element where the elements in the reactants side and the product side should have equal number of molecules. The balanced reaction is as follows:


2HCl + Ca(OH)2 = CaCl2 + 2H2O

CH3COOH mc015-1.jpg CH3COO– (aq) + H+(aq) What will happen to the chemical equilibrium of the solution if CH3COONa is added?

Answers

The equilibrium will shift to the left or the backward reaction since addition of CH3COONa will add more CH3COO- ions to the solution. The formation of reactants are promoted.

Which event is endothermic? the burning of a match the change of water vapor to a liquid the combustion of propane gas the melting of ice?

Answers

The melting of ice is an event which is endothermic. Endothermic is the process when heat is transfer from the environment to the object. It happens when the onject absorbs the heat just like melting of ice. The ice is in solid form due to the compaction of positively charged atoms in it but when heat carrying electrons made contact to it, it melted.

Answer:

D. The melting of ice

Explanation:

An endothermic reaction ABSORBS heat from its surroundings, it does NOT give heat off into its surroundings.

so...

When a match burns, it gives of heat. So A is incorrect.

When water goes from a vapor into a liquid, the water molecules loose kinetic energy, they do not gain it. And since temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy in a substance, the water vapor looses heat. If the process was endothermic, it would be gaining heat. So B is incorrect.

When propane gas combusts, the explosion lets off heat into its surroundings, it does not absorb heat. So C is incorrect.

Here's what happens when something melts: the molecules inside the substance receive more and more kinetic energy, until the substance's molecules have enough kinetic energy to vibrate and wiggle past each other, breaking their structure. When ice melts it is receiving kinetic energy from its surroundings, and again, since temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy in a substance, the process is absorbing heat. Q.E.D.,
