Why don’t the common ions in humans (na+, k+, cl-, etc.) cluster together in cells?

1 answer:

7 0

The answer is because like electric charges do not attract with each other. Ions either lack or have excess electrons in their atomic structure. Ions with a positive charge are called cations. They lack electrons in their atoms so they have to pair up with negatively charged ions, called anions, because they have excess electrons. Together, they form a compound that is neutral.

If you have 3.62 moles of Tin (Sn), how many grams do you have?

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Use molar mass:)

Explanation:

3.62 mol of Sn ( $\frac{118.7gramsSn}{mol}$ )=429.694

Since 3.62 has 3 sig figs, limit 429.694 to 3

= 430

A gas at constant volume has a pressure of 4. 50 atm at 200. K. What will be the pressure of the gas at 250. K? 3. 60 atm 4. 60

Trava [24]

5.625 atm will be the pressure of the gas at 250 K temperature of the gas at constant volume.

<h3>How we calculate the pressure of the gas?</h3>

Pressure of the gas will be calculated by using the ideal gas equation as:

PV = nRT,

From the question, it is clear that:

Moles of the gas and volume is constant here, so we calculate the pressure by rearranging the above equation as:

P/T = nR/V

And required equation will be:

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂, where

P₁ = pressure of gas = 4.50 atm

T₁ = temperature of gas = 200 K

P₂ = pressure of gas = to find?

T₂ = temperature of gas = 250 K

On putting all these values in the above equation, we get

P₂ = 4.50 × 250 / 200 = 5.625 atm

Hence, 5.625 atm is the pressure of the gas.

Write the balanced equation for a reaction between aqueous nitric acid (HNO3) and solid lithium metal (this is a single replacem

Lemur [1.5K]

<u>Answer:</u> The equation is given below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Single replacement reactions are the chemical reactions in which more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its chemical reaction. General equation for these reactions is given by the equation:

$A+BC\rightarrow AC+B$

Metal A is more reactive than metal B.

The reactivity of metals is judged with the help of reactivity series. In this series, the metals lying above are more reactive than the metals which lie below in the series.

For the reaction of solid lithium metal and nitric acid, the equation follows:

$3Li(s)+4HNO_3(aq.)\rightarrow 3LiNO_3(aq.)+2H_2O(l)+NO(g)$

This is a type of single replacement reaction because Lithium (more reactive metal) is replacing Hydrogen (less reactive metal) from the chemical reaction.
