What are some advantages and disadvantages of non-biodegradable materials?
Answers
1.) They are portable.
2.) They are flexible and thus can be modelling into desired shapes.
3.) They have high melting temperatures hence can carry very hot things or activities involving high temperatures.
4.) They are durable.
DISADVANTAGE
They are the main pollutants because they do not decompose hence pose permanent pollution to the environment.
They also make the environment look ugly when they are disposed improperly.
Explanation:
Answer: The correct answer is Option B.
Explanation:
To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:
\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}Number of moles=
Molar mass
Given mass
.....(1)
For Option A:
Given mass of methane = 16 g
Molar mass of methane = 16 g/mol
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
\text{Moles of methane}=\frac{16g}{16g/mol}=1molMoles of methane=
16g/mol
16g
=1mol
1 mole of methane compound is formed by 1 mole of carbon and 4 moles of hydrogen atoms.
According to mole concept:
1 mole of a gas contains 6.022\times 10^{23}6.022×10
23
number of atoms.
So, 1 mole of methane compound will have 4\times 1\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=24.088\times 10^{23}4×1×6.022×10
23
=24.088×10
23
number of hydrogen atoms.
Number of hydrogen atoms = 24.088\times 10^{23}24.088×10

23
number of atoms.
So, 0.41 mole of C_6H_4C
6
H
4
compound will have 4\times 0.41\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=9.876\times 10^{23}4×0.41×6.022×10
23
=9.876×10
23
number of hydrogen atoms.
Number of hydrogen atoms = 9.876\times 10^{23}9.876×10

O
11
= 34.2 g
Molar mass of C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}C
12
H
22
O
11
= 342.3 g/mol
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
\text{Moles of }C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}=\frac{34.2g}{342.3g/mol}=0.099molMoles of C
12
H
22
O
11
=
342.3g/mol
34.2g
=0.099mol
1 mole of C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}C
12
H
22
O
11
compound is formed by 12 moles of carbon, 22 moles of hydrogen atoms and 11 moles of oxygen atoms.
According to mole concept:
1 mole of a gas contains 6.022\times 10^{23}6.022×10
23
number of atoms.
So, 0.099 mole of C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}C
12
H
22
O
11
compound will have 22\times 0.099\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=13.116\times 10^{23}22×0.099×6.022×10
23
=13.116×10
23
number of hydrogen atoms.
Number of hydrogen atoms = 13.116\times 10^{23}13.116×10

For Option D:
Given mass of C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}C
6
H
12

6
H
12
