How do scientists prevent the nonpolar perfluorocarbons

Chemistry
1 answer:
Pavel [41]3 years ago
3 0

Scientists prevent the nonpolar perfluorocarbons

in Oxygent from separating from the water by adding surfactant.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The  collection of oxygen from lungs and transporting it  all those tissues present in the human body and taking carbon dioxide back to lungs are the main functions of the hemoglobin. But, instead of this hemoglobin, When perfluorocarbons , a nonpolar chemical is used to perform the same function for the oxygen transportation, the nonpolar chemical may not mix well with the water when this perfluorocarbons is taken through a water-based saline .

For this purpose an addition of a chemical called surfactant is done. This will enhance the chemical bonding between the non polar chemical and water. The perfluorocarbons  spreads into some droplets and gets coated with this bonding substance. Thus it gets attached to the water.

Calculate the electrical energy per gram of anode material for the following reaction at 298 K:
antiseptic1488 [7]

The answer is:

E per gram = 0.45 V

The explanation:

when MnO2 is the substance who oxidized here so, the oxidizing agent and the anode here is Li.

and when the molar mass of Li is = 7 g/mol

and in our reaction equation we have 1 mole of Li will give 3.15 V of the electrical energy

that means that :

7 g of Li gives → 3.15 V

So 1 g of Li will give→ ???

∴ The E per gram = 3.15 V / 7 g of Li

= 0.45 V

How many moles of NaCl are present in 2.50 L of a 0.070 M solution?
posledela

Given :

Volume of NaCl solution 2.5 L .

Molarity of NaCl solution is 0.070 M .

To Find :

How many moles are present in the solution.

Solution :

Let, n be the number of moles.

We know, molarity is given by :

M = \dfrac{n}{V(in\ L)}

So,

n = M \times V\\\\n = 0.070\times 2.5 \\\\n = 0.175\ moles

Therefore, number of moles of NaCl is 0.175 moles.

Indicate the direction of polarity of each of the following covalent bonds. Please just write a + or - not the bonds.
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

1. C+ ---- O-

2. O+ ---- Cl-

3. O+ ----- F-

4. C+ ----- N-

5. Cl- ----- C+

6. S- ----- H+

7. S+ ----- Cl -

Explanation:

Electronegativity determines the polarity . There may be two atoms in a bond with high electronegativity, in such cases the positive charge is given to atom with comparatively lower electronegativity. Electronegativity determines the easiness with which an atom attract electrons in a chemical bond. A polar bond is formed when the difference in the electronegativity of two combining atoms is between 0.4 and 1.7. The correct direction is

1. C+ ---- O-

2. O+ ---- Cl-

3. O+ ----- F-

4. C+ ----- N-

5. Cl- ----- C+

6. S- ----- H+

7. S+ ----- Cl -
