For a certain experiment, a student requires 100 milliliters of a solution that is 8% HCl (hydrochloric acid). The storeroom has

only solutions that are 5% HCl and 15% HCl. How many milliliters of each available solution should be mixed to get 100 milliliters of 8% HCl?

Answer:

70 mL of 5% HCl and 30 mL of 15% HCl

Explanation:

We will designate x to be the fraction of the final solution that is composed of 5% HCl, and y to be the fraction of the final solution that is composed of 15% HCl. Since the percentage of the final solution is 8%, we can write the following expression:

5x + 15y = 8

Since x and y are fractions of a total, they must equal one:

x + y = 1

This is a system of two equations with two unknowns. We will proceed to solve for x. First, an expression for y is found:

y = 1 - x

This expression is substituted into the first equation and we solve for x.

5x + 15(1 - x) = 8

5x+ 15 - 15x = 8

-10x = -7

x = 7/10 = 0.7

We then calculate the value of y:

y = 1 - x = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

Thus 0.7 of the 100 mL will be the 5% HCl solution, so the volume of 5% HCl we need is:

(100 mL)(0.7) = 70 mL

Similarly, the volume of 15% HCl we need is:

(100 mL)(0.3) = 30 mL

Answer:

Oxygen and Carbon are in the non-metal section. Both are in 2nd period while Carbon is in group 4A and Oxygen is in group 6A.

Oxygen has more valence electrons than carbon. I wish I could give you a more accurate explanation why on paper, but all you need to do is count the electrons on the largest shell.

Here's the orbital notation of Carbon: 1s^2 2s^2 2px^1 py^1

Carbon's largest shell is 2. Count the electrons on shell 2, and you get 4 valence electrons.

Orbital notation of Oxygen: 1s^2 2s^2 2px^2 py^1 pz^1

Oxygen's largest shell is 2. So, like with carbon, count the electrons on the largest shell. You get 6.

There is a way easier way of interpreting this where you do not even have to write the orbital notation. I wish I can explain, but just know the periods and the group numbers.

Which of the followings are true 1,3-BPG? A. It regulates Hb B. It contains a high-energy bond C. It contains two ester bonds D.
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

D. It contains a phosphate with higher phosphoryl transfer potential than ATP

Explanation:

1,3-Bisphosphoglycerate contains a phosphate group that has high phosphoryl transfer potential than ATP (they can transfer the phosphoryl group to ATP). Other high phosphoryl transfer potential groups include :Creatine kinase and phosphoenolpyruvate.

What mass of propane (c3h8(g)) must be burned to supply 2775 kj of heat? the standard enthalpy of combustion of propane at 298 k
Shalnov [3]
Answer is: 55.125 grams <span>of propane must be burned.
</span>Balanced chemical reaction: C₃H₈ + 5O₂ → 3CO₂ + 4H₂O.
Make proportion: 1 mol(C₃H₈) : 2220 kJ = n(C₃H₈) : 2775kJ.
n(C₃H₈) = 2775 kJ·mol ÷ 2220 kJ.
n(C₃H₈) = 1.25 mol.
m(C₃H₈) = n(C₃H₈) · M(C₃H₈).
m(C₃H₈) = 1.25 mol · 44.1 g/mol.
m(C₃H₈) = 55.125 g.
n - amount of substance.
