Select the correct answer. which of the following describes a compound? (hint: carbon and oxygen both appear on the periodic table.) a. a piece of pure carbon, containing only carbon atoms b. oxygen gas surrounding a solid piece of carbon c. a substance made of two oxygen atoms for each carbon atom d. carbon and oxygen atoms mixed without being bonded together

Which statement describes the appearance of a temperature-vs.-time graph? a horizontal line shows that the temperature increases at a constant rate over time. a vertical line shows that the temperature decreases at a constant rate over time. horizontal lines where the temperature is constant during phase changes connect upward-sloping lines where the temperature increases. horizontal lines where the temperature increases are connected by upward-sloping lines where the temperature is constant for each phase.

Dying the folding patterns of protein molecules can microbiologists better understand cellular processes as well as some diseases, such as alzheimer’s, that are caused by proteins that have misfolded. the folding of these complicated molecules can be simulated on computers, but it takes a lot of processor power and time for even expensive supercomputers to do this. a group of researchers at stanford university developed software that can be used to distribute the processing of data to anyone who is willing to donate time on their idle personal computers. as a result, the researchers have been able to achieve protein-folding simulations that are far better than those other computing methods have done. which statement best describes the work of these researchers? the work is not scientific because the data are not processed in one location. the work is not scientific because the simulations are not reproducible. the researchers applied creativity to solve a problem in running an experiment. the researchers used only well-established scientific techniques.

Draw any one of the skeletal structures of a 2° alkyl bromide having the molecular formula of c6h13br and two stereogenic centers. indicate chirality by using wedge and hashed wedge notation. lone pairs do not need to be shown.
