Suppose a platinum atom in the oxidation state formed a complex with two chloride anions and two ammonia molecules. Write the ch

emical formula of this complex.
Chemistry
1 answer:
Blababa [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: Pt(Cl)2(NH3)2

Explanation:

In the formation of the complex, the oxidation number of platinum is plus two (+2) and two chloride ions cancel it out by their oxidation number of -1 each. Hence the complex has an overall charge of zero. It is thus neutral with no charge attached to its formula.

HNO3 + H2O → H3O^+ + NO3<br> which ones are acids and which ones are bases
nlexa [21]

Answer:

  • HNO₃ and  H₃O⁺ are acids
  • H₂O and  NO₃⁻ are bases

Explanation:

The chemical equation is:

  • HNO₃ + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + NO₃⁻

There are several definitions of acid and bases: Arrhenius', Bronsted-Lowry's and Lewis'.

Bronsted-Lowry model defines and <em>acid</em> as a donor of protons, H⁺.

In the given equation HNO₃ is such substance: it releases an donates its hdyrogen to form the H₃O⁺ ion.

On the other hand, a <em>base</em> is a substance that accepts protons.

In the reaction shown, H₂O accepts the proton from HNO₃ to form H₃O⁺.

Thus, H₂O is a base.

In turn, on the reactant sides the substances can be classified as acids or bases.

H₃O⁺ contain an hydrogen that can be donated and form H₂O; thus, it is an acid (the conjugated acid), and NO₃⁻ can accept a proton to form HNO₃; thus it is a base (the conjugated base).

Valine is an essential amino acid, which means that it cannot be manufactured in the body and must be obtained through dietary s
artcher [175]

Answer:

As for what is written, I think that your wording is incomplete, since valine (abbreviated Val or V) is one of the twenty amino acids encoded by DNA on Earth, whose chemical formula is HO2CCH (NH2) CH (CH3) 2. In messenger RNA, it is encoded by GUA, GUG, GUU or GUC. Nutritionally, in humans, it is one of the essential amino acids.

Explanation:

Being an essential amino acid, it speaks of the fact that the organism does not synthesize it, therefore it must be ingested in the daily diet as well as in foods rich in proteins: red meat, chicken, fish, eggs, grains and nuts.

Which atom will gain electrons in the reaction, and how many.
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Most atoms do not have eight electrons in their valence electron shell. Some atoms have only a few electrons in their outer shell, while some atoms lack only one or two electrons to have an octet. In cases where an atom has three or fewer valence electrons, the atom may lose those valence electrons quite easily until what remains is a lower shell that contains an octet. Atoms that lose electrons acquire a positive charge as a result because they are left with fewer negatively charged electrons to balance the positive charges of the protons in the nucleus. Positively charged ions are called cations. Most metals become cations when they make ionic compounds.

What is the value of x in the measure of the angle?
8090 [49]
It is 14, plug it in or use inverse equations. Since they're vertical angles they are the same value. 41 = 2x+13, 28 = 2x (subtract 13), 14 = x (divide by 2).
