Answer:

(a) r = 6.26 * 10⁻⁷cm

(b) r₂ = 6.05 * 10⁻⁷cm

Explanation:

Using the sedimentation coefficient formula;

s =  M(1-Vρ) / Nf ; where s is sedimentation coefficient, M is molecular weight, V is specific volume of protein, p is density of the solvent, N is Avogadro number, f if frictional force = 6πnr, n is viscosity of the medium, r is radius of particle

s = M ( 1 - Vρ) / N*6πnr

making r sbjct of formula, r =  M (1 - Vρ) / N*6πnrs

Note: S = 10⁻¹³ sec, 1 KDalton = 1 *10³ g/mol, I cP = 0.01 g/cm/s

r = {(3.1 * 10⁵ g/mol)(1 - (0.732 cm³/g)(1 g/cm³)} / { (6.02 * 10²³)(6π)(0.01 g/cm/s)(11.7 * 10⁻¹³ sec)

r = 6.26 * 10⁻⁷cm

b. Using the formula r₂/r₁ = s₁/s₂

s₂ = 0.035 + 1s₁ = 1.035s₁

making r₂ subject of formula; r₂ = (s₁ * r₁) / s₂ = (s₁ * r₁) / 1.035s₁

r₂ = 6.3 * 10⁻⁷cm / 1.035

r₂ = 6.05 * 10⁻⁷cm

Part APart complete A sample of sodium reacts completely with 0.568 kg of chlorine, forming 936 g of sodium chloride. What mass
yan [13]

Answer: 368 grams of sodium reacted.

Explanation:

The balanced reaction is :

2Na(s)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2NaCl(s)

\text{Moles of chlorine}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of chlorine}=\frac{0.568\times 1000g}{71g/mol}=8moles

\text{Moles of sodium chloride}=\frac{936g}{58.5g/mol}=16mol    

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of NaCl are formed from = 2 moles of Na

Thus 16 moles of NaCl are formed from=\frac{2}{2}\times 16=16moles  of Na

Mass of Na=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=16moles\times 23g/mol=368g

Thus 368 grams of sodium reacted.

Can someone help me with these questions?
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

9) Substitution Reaction

10) Covalent Bond

11) Ionic Bond

12) Covalent Bond

13) Ionic Bond

14) 9 atoms

Explanation:

9) Substitution Reaction: Substitution reaction is a chemical reaction in which one atom, ion or species replaced by another atom, ion or species

10) Covalent Bond: Covalent bond is a bond that formed between two nonmetals, when both the species are non metal, the electronegativity of both the nonmetals are comparatively same, hence any of both do not pulls completely electron of other & the bond is formed by the sharing of electron.

11) Ionic Bond: We know that nonmetals have high electronegativity than those of metals, due to high electronegativity non metals pulls the electrons of metals but there is enough interaction that non metal do not escape after pulling the electron, & an ionic bond generates where non metals possess negative charge & positive charge goes to metal.

12) Covalent Bond: The bond formed between two atoms having less electronegativity diffrence by sharing of electron pair is know as covalent bond. for e.g the Carbon - Hydrogen bond in methane (CH4) molecule is covalent bonded because the electronegativity of carbon is 2.5 & that of hydrogen is 2.1 which is almost close, hence the bond formed is covalent.

13) Ionic Bond: The bond formed between two atoms having high electronegativity diffrence & the bond formed is due to complete transfer of electron by one species. For e.g. NaCl the sodium is a metal having electronegativity 0.9 and chlorine is non metal having electronegativity 3.0 the electronegativity diffrence is too high, hence the chlorine behaves as Cl- ion that of sodium as Na+, both the components behaves as ion but they are bonded &that bond is called as Ionic bond.

14) 9 Atoms: One molecule of water (H2O) posses three atoms, two hydrogen atoms & one oxygen atom, the number of atoms in 3 molecules of water 3×3 = 9 atoms.
