Answer and Explanation:

The bond that holds together the two amino acids is a peptide bond, or a covalent chemical bond between two compounds (in this case, two amino acids). It occurs when the carboxylic group of one molecule reacts with the amino group of the other molecule, linking the two molecules and releasing a water molecule.

When heating a solution to boiling on a hot plate, start by ___________. Then, turn the heat to ___________to start. If necessar

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

1. starting and stabilizing the stir function

2. a medium heat

3.turn up the heat setting

Explanation:

A chemical reaction can be defined as a chemical process which typically involves the transformation or rearrangement of the atomic, ionic or molecular structure of an element through the breakdown and formation of chemical bonds to produce a new compound or substance.

Some of the laboratory apparatus (equipment) used for conducting a chemical reaction are conical flask, Bunsen burner, beaker, tongs, crucible, round bottom flask etc.

When heating a solution to boiling on a hot plate, start by starting and stabilizing the stir function. Then, turn the heat to a medium heat to start. If necessary, turn up the heat setting after waiting about ten minutes without seeing boiling.

The safety precautions that must be taken when heating a solution to boiling on a hot plate;

I. A proper inspection of the round bottom flask for cracks, irregularities or any imperfection.

II. Ensure you avoid heating the flask while it is closed.

III. When suspending the flask on a hot plate, you should ensure that you use a clamp for stability.

Calculate the pH of a solution whose H3O+ concentration is 2.1 x 10-3 M. Is the solution acidc, basic, or neutral?

Leona [35]

Answer:

Option A, The pH of the solution is 2.7 and the solution is acidic

Explanation:

As we know,

pH = - log [H3O+]

Substituting the given values, we get

pH = - log [2.1 x 10-3 M]

pH = - (-2.678)

pH = 2.678 or 2.7

The solution is acidic as pH value is less than 7

Hence, option A is correct

What is the variable that is changed by

denpristay [2]

Answer:

b. independent/manipulated variable

Explanation:

Independent/manipulated variable - refers to the variable that is changed by the scientist or an experimenter. Only one variable that is independent is required to ensure a fair test in an excellent experiment. As the independent variable is being changed by an experimenter or scientist, data is being recorded simultaneously as they are collected.

Calculate the average reaction rate expressed in moles h2 consumed per liter per second

djyliett [7]

Answer:

Average rate of reaction expressed in moles H₂ consumed per liter per second = 0.0025 M/s = 0.0025 mol/L.s

Explanation:

The complete, correct Question, is presented in the attached image to this answer.

The average rate of reaction in terms of the reactant is defined as the total amount of reactant consumed over a period of time divided by total period of time.

Mathematically,

Average rate of reaction = (change in concentration of H₂ over a period of time) ÷ (total period of time)

Average rate of reaction = (-ΔC)/(Δt)

The minus sign is there because the concentration of reactants reduce with time.

change in concentration of H₂ = -ΔC

= -(0.02 - 0.03) = 0.01 M

Time = Δt = 4 - 0 = 4.0 s

Average rate of reaction = (0.01/4) = 0.0025 M/s

We could solve for the average rate of reaction expressed in moles Cl₂ consumed per liter per second

change in concentration of Cl₂ = -ΔC

= -(0.04 - 0.05) = 0.01 M

Time = Δt = 4 - 0 = 4.0 s

Average rate of reaction = (0.01/4) = 0.0025 M/s = 0.0025 mol/L.s

Hope this Helps!!!
