Answer to Problem 4RQ
‘2’ in 2O2 represents that 2 moles of oxygen is reacting with 1 mol of methane (CH4).
‘2’ in H2O represents that there are 2 H atoms in the molecule of water (H2O).
Explanation of Solution
Coefficients in chemical reaction give the idea of mole ratio in which the reaction is taking place. But the subscripts gives idea of how many particular type of atoms is there in a molecule.
In this reaction it is clear that per mole of methane 2 moles of oxygen is required for complete combustion. From the formula of water (H2O) it is clear that there are 2 hydrogen atoms in one molecule of water which is represented by the subscript ‘2’ in H of H2O.

- b) Certain cyclic compounds are known to be conformationally similar to carbohydrates, although they are not themselves carbohydrates. One example is Compound C shown below, which could be imagined as adopting four possible conformations. In reality, however, only one of these is particularly stable. Circle the conformation you expect to be the most stable, and provide an explanation to justify your choice. For your explanation to be both convincing and correct, it must contain not only words, but also "cartoon" orbital drawings contrasting the four structures.
