31.  A) Propane, C3H8
B) Pentane, C5H12


32. The suffix -ane indicates that hexane is an alkane.

33. Yes, each of these molecules are isomers of each other. They all consist of 5 carbon atoms and 12 hydrogen atoms, but appear to be different because of the arrangement of atoms. These three molecules are structured isomers of one another, for they have identical molecular formulas but different arrangements of atoms.

34. 



35. Butane (C4H10) is the shortest-chain alkane that can demonstrate isomerism- alkanes with four or more carbon atoms can be demonstrated as straight-chain structures, branched-chain structures, and ring structures.

36. Both representations are correct because their different arrangements of atoms do not change the identical molecular formulas of the molecule; this would make the molecules structural isomers of each other.

37. A) 

B) The branched-chain molecule would have the lower boiling point. Since the straight-chain molecule has greater molecule-to-molecule contact, it has a stronger intermolecular force than the branched-chain molecule, resulting in a higher boiling point.

38. a. A short, straight chain would have a lower boiling point because of decreased molecule-to-molecule contact than the longer boiling point. The bonds of this chain would be easier to break than a longer straight chain.

b. A short, branched chain would have the lower boiling point. Although the bonds of a branched chain are easier to break than those of a straight chain, it would be more difficult to break more molecular bonds within the long chain, resulting in a higher boiling point.

c. A short, branched chain would have a lower boiling point. Straight chains have stronger intermolecular forces that hold together each molecule in contact; where as bonds between branched chains are more breakable due to the decreased intermolecular molecular forces between them.

1. Petroleum is sometimes considered "buried sunshine" because as a fossil fuel, it originates from biomolecules of prehistoric plants and animals. The energy released by burning petroleum represents energy originally captured from sunlight by these prehistoric green plants during photosynthesis; "buried sunshine".

2. a. Potential energy is energy of position, or stored energy ready to be released. An example of potential energy is the energy within an unreleased winded up spring toy.
b. Kinetic energy is energy related to motion. A car rolling down a hill is an example of kinetic energy.

3. Chemical energy, another form of potential energy, is stored within the bonds in chemical compounds. When an energy-releasing reaction takes place, the bonds break and reactant atoms reorganize to form new bonds and release energy. If more energy is released than originally started with, the reaction is exothermic, but if less energy is released than originally started with, the reaction is endothermic.

4. A molecule of butane has more potential energy; it has more carbons than methane and a higher boiling point than methane. The bonds of butane are harder to break than the bonds of methane, resulting its higher potential energy.

5. a. Potential energy
b. Potential energy
c. Kinetic energy
d. Potential energy
e. Kinetic energy

6. Energy is required to break chemical bonds because it is what causes the reactant bonds to break and reorganize to form new bonds and energy.

7. a. Exothermic energy is released than is required to begin the chemical reaction.
b. Endothermic energy is required to crack large hydrocarbon molecules than is released.
c. Endothermic takes more energy to digest a candy bar than the energy released after digestion.

8. The product of a burning candle yields more energy than the energy to begin the reaction with an unlit candle. Since more energy is let off than required to begin the reaction, burning a candle is an exothermic reaction.

9. 




10. The law of conservation of energy states that energy is neither created nor destroyed in any mechanical, physical, or chemical processes.

What caused the fish death

Scenario 1:
In May, June, July of every year there is an increase in the amount of rainfall. However, this year in August there was a sudden change in the amount of water that appeared. There was much higher water flow due to the abnormal amounts of rainfall. The fish died in scenario 1 because of the excess in pesticides. The reason this is weird is because there was no un usual amount of rainfall, water flow, or dissolved oxygen in the month of August. The pesticides were present in September and it too a week to kill the fish in August. This is because it took a week for the dangerous amount of pesticides to flow into the water.

Scenario 2:
In May, June, and July there is still excessive amounts of rainfall appearing in these months. Because of these huge amounts of water, this caused much of the nitrate to flow into the water.  What killed the fish in scenario 2 was the extreme amount of nitrate. This could have causes the fish kill because nitrate could prevent oxygen from being carried throughout the fish's body causing bubbles to occur in their blood.

A.Evaporation of water vapor: removes nearly all dissolved substances.
B. Bacterial action: changes dissolved substances into simple compounds. 
C. Filtration through sand and gravel: removes nearly all unwanted matter.

3. They both remove suspended particles in the water.

4. They calcium oxides basic property neutralizes the acidity of the water.

5. Sometimes 1ppm of fluoride is used due to the risk of tooth decay.

6. Chlorinated water is far healthier due to the fact that it has helped prevent from waterborne diseases.

7. Chlorine in water can react with organic compounds made by decomposing animal and plant water to form substances that can be harmful to humans.

8. Water from a clear mountain stream may require chlorination to make it safe for drinking due to various types of bacterias found on the ground or other harmful substances that the water may have picked up on the way down the mountain.

9. Charcoal filters: they remove most organic compounds from water. or Sand Filtration, which  removes nearly all unwanted matter.

18. Due to evaporation being the first step of the hydrological cycle, none of the following steps could happen because evaporation is the starting point.

19. Water evaporates as vapor (Gas), forms into water droplets in clouds (liquid), and falls as either rain water (liquid), snow, or hail (solids).

20.a. a tomato.
     b. pure water.

22.1) fish egg development impaired, reproduction harmed.2) increased concentrations of metal ions in natural waters by leaching metal ions from 3) dissolves organic materials, such as scales on fish. 

23. A polar molecule is a molecule with an uneven distribution of electrical charge; each molecule has a partial positive region at one end and a partial negative region at the other end. A nonpolar molecule's distribution of electrical charge is equal throughout, meaning it is balanced at both ends of the molecule. 

24. Ethanol and water are both polar substances, so, to dissolve a nonpolar substance,one would use a nonpolar substance such as, lamp oil. 

25. Since water is an extremely attractive polar molecule, the positive and negative charges of NaCl are "pulled" by the charges of the water molecules. Cooking oil on the other hand, is nonpolar. NaCl doesnt dissolve in cooking oil.

33. a. Nonpolar materials are likely to be found in these cleaners.
b. Using these cleaners would be more effective than washing with water because since water   molecules are polar, they would not dissolve the grease off of the mechanics' hands. 


35. Since fluorine has the highest electronegativity of any element, it would make up the negative end of the polar bond.. Since hydrogen has less negative charges than fluorine, it would have the partial positive charge of the polar bond.
