The hormone epinephrine is released in the human body during stress and increases the body's metabolic rate. Epinephrine, like m

any biochemical compounds, is composed of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. The percentage composition of the hormone is 59.0% C, 7.15% H, 26.2% O, and 7.65% N. Determine the empirical formula.

Answer:

C9 H13 N O3  

Explanation:

Carbon mole wt = 12

   59 /12 = 4.917

Hydrogen  mole wt = 1

  7.15 / 1 =   7.15

Oxygen mole wt = 16

  26.2 / 16 = 1.6375

Nitrogen  mole wt = 14

  7.65 / 14 = .5464                  

Now divide the numbers by the smallest found      

 Carbon   4.917 / .5464 = 9

 Hydrogen  7.15 / .5464 = 13

 Oxygen    1.6375 / 3

  Nitrogen  .5464 /.5464 =1                   emp form  C9 H13 O3 N

A strontium hydroxide solution is prepared by dissolving 10.60 gg of Sr(OH)2Sr(OH)2 in water to make 47.00 mLmL of solution.What
NeTakaya

Answer:

Approximately 1.854\; \rm mol\cdot L^{-1}.

Explanation:

Note that both figures in the question come with four significant figures. Therefore, the answer should also be rounded to four significant figures. Intermediate results should have more significant figures than that.

<h3>Formula mass of strontium hydroxide</h3>

Look up the relative atomic mass of \rm Sr, \rm O, and \rm H on a modern periodic table. Keep at least four significant figures in each of these atomic mass data.

  • \rm Sr: 87.62.
  • \rm O: 15.999.
  • \rm H: 1.008.

Calculate the formula mass of \rm Sr(OH)_2:

M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) = 87.62 + 2\times (15.999 + 1.008) = 121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}.

<h3>Number of moles of strontium hydroxide in the solution</h3>

M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) =121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1} means that each mole of \rm Sr(OH)_2 formula units have a mass of 121.634\; \rm g.

The question states that there are 10.60\; \rm g of \rm Sr(OH)_2 in this solution.

How many moles of \rm Sr(OH)_2 formula units would that be?

\begin{aligned}n\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) &= \frac{m\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}{M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}\\ &= \frac{10.60\; \rm g}{121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \approx 8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol\end{aligned}.

<h3>Molarity of this strontium hydroxide solution</h3>

There are 8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol of \rm Sr(OH)_2 formula units in this 47\; \rm mL solution. Convert the unit of volume to liter:

V = 47\; \rm mL = 0.047\; \rm L.

The molarity of a solution measures its molar concentration. For this solution:

\begin{aligned}c\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) &= \frac{n\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}{V}\\ &= \frac{8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol}{0.047\; \rm L} \approx 1.854\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}\end{aligned}.

(Rounded to four significant figures.)

matrenka [14]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Yes, this difference of readings will definitely affect the results of the experiment as well as the E values because the readings taken by both students are different from one another. There is a fault in one of the thermometer because both shows different readings of temperature of the same solution. This will affect the overall experiment and due to this error, we are unable to tell that which one reading is correct so the answer is uncertain or unsure.

1. A cupcake show makes and delivers specialized cupcakes. It will cost someone $30 for
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

2.5

Explanation:

The given costs for the purchase and delivery of the cupcakes are;

The cost of 10 cupcakes and the delivery fee = $30

The cost of 25 cupcakes and the delivery fee = $67.50

Let 'c' represent the fixed cost of delivery of the cup cakes, and let 'x' represent the cost of each cup cake, we have;

30 = 10·x + c...(1)

67.50 = 25·x + c...(2)

Subtracting equation (1) from equation (2) gives;

67.50 - 30 = 37.50 = 25·x - 10·x + c - c = 15·x

∴ x = 37.50/15 = 2.5

The cost of each cupcake, x = 2.5

(∴ The delivery fee = 30 - 10 × 2.5 = 5)

The cost of each cupcake is 2.5.

At 500 degree C, F_2 gas is stable and does not dissociate, but at 840 degree C, some dissociation occurs: F_2 (g) 2 F(g). A fla
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

2.73 is the equilibrium constant for the dissociation of F_2 gas at 840 degree Celsius.

Explanation:

F_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2F(g)

Initial

0.600 atm    0

Equilibrium

(0.600 atm - p)        2p

Total pressure at equilibrium = P = 0.984 atm

P= 0.600 atm - p)+2p=0.984 atm

p = 0.384 atm

Partial pressure of the F_2 gas , p_{f_2}= (0.600 atm - 0.384 atm)=0.216 atm

Partial pressure of the F gas, p_{f} = 2(0.384 atm)=0.768 atm

K_p=\frac{(p_{F})^2}{p_{F_2}}

K_p=\frac{(0.768 atm)^2}{0.216 atm}=2.73

2.73 is the equilibrium constant for the dissociation of F_2 gas at 840 degree Celsius.
