A polyatomic ion, also known as a molecular ion, is a charged chemical species (ion) composed of two or more atoms covalently bonded or of a metal complex that can be considered to be acting as a single unit. The prefix poly- means "many," in Greek, but even ions of two atoms are commonly referred to as polyatomic

HELPP!<br> how many grams are in 1.50 x 10(24) atoms of copper?
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

2266g

Explanation:

mass = no.of molecules /6.o23*1o(23) * molar mass

molar mass of co2= 44g /mol

1.5 .10^25/6.023 .10^23 =51.5 moles of co2

51.5 .44g/mol =2266 g

State 3 functions of enzymes in the body
9966 [12]
<span>Enzymes have three main characteristics. First, they increase the rate of a natural chemical reaction. Secondly, they typically only react with one specific substrate or reactant, and thirdly, enzyme activity is regulated and controlled within the cell through several different means, including regulation by inhibitors and activators. It is possible to group enzymes into different categories, including oxidases, transferases, hydrolases, lyaes, isomerases and ligases. In naming enzymes, the "-ase" suffix is often appended to the name of the substrate molecule upon which which the enzyme reacts. For example, the enzyme sucrase catalyzes the transformation of the sugar sucrose in to glucose and fructose. In this case, the "sucr-" suffix represents the molecule upon which the sucrase enzyme reacts. Not all enzymes are named according to this convention.</span>

The accepted value for the molar volume of a gas is 22.4 L. Sarah's experimental data indicated that a mole of a gas had a volum
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Percent error = 12.5%

Explanation:

In a measurement you can find percent error following the formula:

Percent error = |Measured value - Accepted Value| / Acepted value * 100

Based on the data of the problem, accepted value is 22.4L and the measured Value (Value of Sara) was 19.6L.

Replacing:

Percent error = |Measured value - Accepted Value| / Acepted value * 100

Percent error = |19.6L - 22.4L| / 22.4L * 100

Percent error = |-2.8L| / 22.4L * 100

Percent error = 2.8L / 22.4L * 100

Percent error = 12.5%
