176 Chemistry Questions And Answers

81⟩ How do you test a gas to see if it was hydrogen?

You first must collect it. This can be done by piping it through a tube, which comes out under a bowl of water with an upside down test tube above it. Now after collecting the gas cork it.

Remove the cork and put in a light splint. If it is hydrogen, it will burn with a squeaky pop.

83⟩ Draw the Lewis Dot Structure for CH4O.

Lewis dot structure of CH4O consists of the Carbon atom being bonded to three of the Hydrogen atoms, and the Oxygen atom. The Oxygen atom then is bonded to the remaining Hydrogen (as it is an OH group) and the electrons to fill O's octet are then drawn in.

87⟩ Explain the term distribution coefficient in organic chemistry.

Well let us take an example that we have and a container with both oil and water in it.

These are immiscible, know, let us say there is elemental iodine I2 in this container, iodine is non-polar, so there will be more dissolved in the oil (an organic non-polar solvent) than the water (a non-organic polar solvent). However, there will be a trace amount of iodine dissolved in the water.

K= (concentration in mol/L of I2 in oil)/ (concentration in mol/L of I2 in water)

The distribution constant describes the ratio of iodine concentration in the organic layer to that in water.

89⟩ Is Freon an element and if not what is it?

If a substance does not appear in the Periodic Table, it is not an element, but rather a compound of other elements. Some elements have more than one name, especially radioactive ones. While the names for an element may vary in different languages, it will always have the same Symbol. (see related link for the Periodic Table)

Freon is a patented trade name for refrigerants produced by the DuPont Corporation, all of which are "fluorocarbons" or "hydro fluorocarbons" belonging to the class of compounds known as "haloalkenes". It contains the "halogen" elements Chlorine (Cl), Fluorine (F), as well as the element Carbon (C).

90⟩ What do centrioles do?

Scientists believe that centrioles have something do with cell division and spindle formation, but the exact function is unknown, especially because plants do not have centrioles and they form anastral spindle fibers (cytoplasmic strands or microscopic tubules) and undergo cytokinesis by cell-plate formation.

91⟩ What is a triglyceride?

A triglyceride is a glyceride occurring naturally in animal and vegetable tissues; it consists of three individual fatty acids bound together

92⟩ What is the function of mitochondria?

Also known as the powerhouse of the cell, the mitochondria provide the location for the production of ATP (adenosine tri-phosphate). ATPs are produced by glycolosis, Krebs cycle, and electron transport. ATP in turn provides energy for the cell at the molecular level. They break down food and release energy

93⟩ What are enzymes?

Enzymes are biological catalysts, mainly proteins, generated by your body to speed up chemical reactions in the body. they have an active site on which the substrate is attached, and then broken up or joined.

94⟩ What is a hydrogen bond?

A hydrogen bond is a special type of attractive interaction (perhaps a variation of a dipole-dipole bond) that exists between an electronegative atom and a hydrogen atom bonded to another electronegative atom. This type of bond always involves a hydrogen atom, thus the name. Hydrogen bonds can occur between molecules (intermolecular) or within different parts of a single molecule (intramolecularly). The typical hydrogen bond is stronger than van-der-Waals forces, but weaker than covalent or ionic bonds.

98⟩ What is the function of a monosaccharide?

Monosaccharide is the simplest form of sugar, called glucose when it is in the blood. It is the result of carbohydrate breakdown, which is the body's preferred source of energy. Therefore, you could say the monosaccharides are the fuel of the body.

100⟩ What are the properties of carbohydrates?

Some physical properties are mass/size, color, smell, attraction to magnets, boiling point, melting point, texture, ductility, malleability, buoyancy, density, solid, liquid, or gas.
