Is the erbium transparent, translucent or opaque?

Chemistry
1 answer:
nexus9112 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Objects that allow all of the light to pass through them is said to be transparent. One can clearly see through the transparent objects.  Objects that allow only some light to pass through them is said to be translucent. One can partially see through the translucent objects whereas  objects that do not allow any light to pass through them is said to be opaque. One cannot see through the opaque objects at all.

Erbium is a chemical element with atomic symbol, Er which belongs to the period 6 with atomic number 68. It is a lanthanide, which is silvery-white solid metal in nature. The metals are opaque to visible lights.

Hence, erbium is opaque.

Explain how the hydrogen ion concentration gradient is generated
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

Once three protons have entered the matrix space, there is enough energy in the ATP synthase complex to synthesize one ATP. In this way, the energy in the hydrogen ion gradient is used to make ATP. ... The mitochondrial hydrogen ion gradient is generated as electrons pass through three membrane complexes.

The weak acid HZ has a Ka of 2.55x10⁻⁴.(a) Calculate the pH of 0.075 M HZ.
Dima020 [189]

<u>2.37</u> is the pH of 0.075 M HZ.

<h3>What is pH?</h3>

The term pH, which originally stood for "potential of hydrogen" (or "power of hydrogen"), is used in chemistry to describe how acidic or basic an aqueous solution is. Lower pH values are summarized for acidic solutions (solutions with higher H+ ion concentrations) than for basic or alkaline solutions.

The pH scale is inversely indicates to the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution and is logarithmic.

⇒pH = -log(a_{H+})

Acidic solutions are those with a pH below 7, and basic solutions are those with a pH above 7, at a temperature of 25 °C (77 °F). At this temperature, solutions with a pH of 7 are neutral (e.g. pure water). The pH neutrality relies on temperature, falling below 7 if the temperature rises above 25 °C.

One of the commercial uses of sulfuric acid is the production of calcium sulfate and phosphoric acid. If 26.8 g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ rea
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The percent yield reaction is 64.3%

Explanation:

This is the ballanced reaction

Ca₃(PO₄)₂ (s) + 3H₂SO₄ (aq) → 2H₃PO₄ (aq) + 3CaSO₄ (aq)

Let's determine the moles of our reactants:

Mass / Molar mass = Mol

26.8 g / 310.18 g/m = 0.0864 moles of phosphate.

54.3 g / 98.06 g/m = 0.554 moles of sulfuric

1 mol of phosphate reacts with 3 mol of sulfuric so

0.0864 mol of PO₄⁻³ will react with (0.0864 .3)/1 = 0.259 moles

I have 0.554 of sulfuric, so this is the reactant in excess.

The limiting reagent is the Phosphate.

1 mol of PO₄⁻³ produces 2 mol of phosphoric

0.0864 of PO₄⁻³ will produce the double amount (0.0864 .2) = 0.173 moles

Mol . molar mass = Mass

0.173 m . 97.98g/m = 16.95 g (This is the theoretical yield)

Percent yield = (Produced / Theoretical) .100

(10.9 g / 16.95 g) . 100 = 64.3 %
