Textbook Question
Chapter 19, Problem 1RAT
Why does the melting point of hydrocarbons increase as the number of carbon atoms per molecule increases?
- (a) An increase in the number of carbon atoms per molecule also means an increase in the density of the hydrocarbon.
- (b) The induced dipole-induced dipole molecular attractions are stronger.
- (c) Larger hydrocarbon chains tend to be branched.
- (d) The molecular mass also increases.

Plants grow in many different shapes and sizes. Much of their shape depends on an internal structure that is composed of
carbon-containing molecules such as cellulose and lignin. Plants that have a strong internal structure can grow larger than other
plants because their structure can support their size.
Plants obtain the majority of the carbon necessary for building these structural molecules from -
O air
O microorganisms
O soil
O water

Note: You may assume you have an excess of either reactant if the reaction requires more than one of those molecules to form the products.
In the drawing area below, draw the skeletal ("line") structures of the missing organic products X and Y. You may draw the structures in any arrangement that
you like, so long as they aren't touching.

A loss of an oxide atom results in a 'vacancy'. The presence of these vacancies is
required for conductivity in the solid state.
How many vacancies will be in the doped cell?
Explain how these vacancies allow oxide ions to move through the material.
