Answer:

Molar mass of lysine is 146.267 grams per mole.

Explanation:

Osmotic pressure(π) is given by the formula

π = cRT

where c is concentration in \frac{moles}{L} (Molarity).

c = no of moles per volume in litres.

R is universal gas constant = 0.0821 \frac{L-atm}{mole-K}

T is temperature in K.

Substituting values in the above equation gives

1.918 = \frac{8.6\times1000}{M\times750}\times0.0821\times298

M = 146.267 grams per mole.

Answer:

The molar mass of lysine using the ideal gas equation for this problem is 146.25 g/mole.

Explanation:

The ideal gas equation PV = nRT, was derived from the ABC laws (Avogadros, Boyles and Charles laws). We need to obtain the value for the number of moles n.

The parameters of this equation are:

P = 1.918 atm

V = 750.0mL = 0.75L

n = ?

R = 0.0821

T = 25 degree celcius = 25 + 273 = 298 degree kelvin.

From this formular, n = (PV)/(RT)

n = (1.918 X 0.75)/(0.0821 X 298 )

n = 0.0588

n, no of mole = mass/molar mass

0.0588 = 8.6/MM

MM = 8.6/0.0588

MM = 146.25g/mole.

“If a certain metal is cooked, it will conduct electricity better”

- this is a hypothesis, since the statement is kind of vague...”certain metal”...and is written in an “if-then” format.

The amount of electric current that passes through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage and is described as V = IR

- laws are usually scientific understanding that we’ve tested so much that we’ve come to a conclusion that can often be written out as a mathematical relationship. Hence, the “V = IR”

Electricity is the flow of electric charge in the form of electrons moving through a circuit

- this is a theory. I would give an explanation but I’m out of time.

Hope this helps

Magnesium metal reacts with iodine gas at high temperatures to form magnesium iodide. what mass of mgi2 can be produced from the
sergiy2304 [10]
<span>54.8 g of MgI2 can be produced. To solve this, you need to determine the molar mass of each reactant and the product. First, look up the atomic weights of iodine and magnesium Atomic weight of Iodine = 126.90447 Atomic weight of Magnesium = 24.305 Molar mass of MgI2 = 24.305 + 2 * 126.90447 = 278.11394 Now determine how many moles of Iodine and Magnesium you have moles of Iodine = 50.0 g / 126.90447 g/mol = 0.393997154 mole moles of Magnesium = 5.15 / 24.305 g/mol = 0.211890557 mole Since for every magnesium atom, you need 2 iodine atoms and since the number of moles of available iodine isn't at least 2 times the available moles of magnesium, iodine is the limiting reagent. So figure out how many moles of magnesium will be consumed by the iodine 0.393997154 mole / 2 = 0.196998577 mole. This means that you can make 0.196998577 moles of MgI2. Now simply multiply by the previously calculated molar mass of MgI2 0.196998577 mole * 278.11394 g/mole = 54.78805 g Round the result to the correct number of significant figures. 54.78805 g = 54.8 g</span>
