Anserw 1 and 2 **The Search for Life Continues**Scientists have identified two similar molecules as water-like candidates to search for on other planets: methane and methanol. Answer the questions below to help explain the importance of the investigation.**Diagram: Structure of Methane and Methanol Molecules**- **Methane (CH₄):** - Structure shows a central carbon (C) atom bonded to four hydrogen (H) atoms in a tetrahedral shape.- **Methanol (CH₄O):** - Structure shows a central carbon (C) atom bonded to three hydrogen (H) atoms and one hydroxyl group (OH). - The OH group leads to polarity due to oxygen (O) having a partial negative charge (δ-) and hydrogen having a partial positive charge (δ+).On the right side, there is a sketched diagram of a polar molecule, highlighting the partial charges on the oxygen and hydrogen atoms of the OH group.**1. List three properties scientists should observe or measure for these substances.****2. Explain your choices from #1: how do these properties relate to a substance's importance for life?****3. What results should scientists see for each of these properties if the substance is similar to water?** - Handwritten note: "Both have similar properties (Methane & Water) is Hydrogen Bonding."**4. Which substance, methane or methanol, do you think would show the results you predicted in #3?** - Handwritten answer: "Methanol (CH₃OH)."

Polymeric composite materials can be obtained by adding fillers in the form of particles or fibers in a polymeric matrix and are intended to form a new material with properties different from those of pure components. Regarding polymeric composites, review the statements below and check which is true and which is false. (I) The mechanical properties of a fiber reinforced polymer composite are not influenced by fiber length. (II) Composites with unidirectional continuous fibers have isotropic mechanical properties. (III) The interfacial adhesion between matrix and dispersed phase does not influence the magnitude of the final mechanical properties of the composite. (IV) In polymeric composites, fibers are normally less ductile than polymeric matrices. (V) The specific area of a material at the nanoscale is significantly less than the specific area of the same material at the microscale.

a mixture of 20 cm³ of a gaseous hydrocarbon and 80 cm³ O2 is burned. Combustion products after cooling pass into KOH solution, it is noticed that a volume reduction of 40 cm³ appears. Eventually 30 cm³ gas remains. If all volumes are measured under the same conditions, find the molecular formula of hydrocarbon.
