In which substance does phosphorus have a +3 oxidation state

1 answer:

4 0

Options are as follow,

A. P₄O₁₀
B. PCl₅
C. Ca₃(PO₄)₂
<span>D. KH</span>₂PO₃

Answer;
The correct option is Option-D (KH₂PO₃).

Explanation:
Oxidation number of Phosphorous is calculated as,

As the normal oxidation number of K is +1, H is +1 and O is -2 so,

KH₂PO₃ = 0

0 shows that the molecule is neutral. Now puttion values of all elemnts except P,

(+1) + (+1)₂ + P + (-2)₃ = 0

+1 + 2 + P - 6 = 0

+3 + P - 6 = 0

+3 + P = +6

P = +6 - 3

P = +3

I don't know how to solve this

Misha Larkins [42]

For the first part, use the question M=mol/vol (liters)

To do this, you have the given 1.6 M solution

divide the 360g by the molar mass of ethanol (44.07) to get moles

360/44.07=8.16 mol

1.6M = 8.16 mol/x vol

volume: 5.1 Liters

In E. coli, the enzyme hexokinase catalyzes the reaction: Glucose + ATP → glucose 6-phosphate + ADP The equilibrium constant, Ke

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Explanation:

Glucose + ATP → glucose 6-phosphate + ADP The equilibrium constant, Keq, is 7.8 x 102.

In the living E. coli cells,

[ATP] = 7.9 mM;

[ADP] = 1.04 mM,

[glucose] = 2 mM,

[glucose 6-phosphate] = 1 mM.

Determine if the reaction is at equilibrium. If the reaction is not at equilibrium, determine which side the reaction favors in living E. coli cells.

The reaction is given as

Glucose + ATP → glucose 6-phosphate + ADP

Now reaction quotient for given equation above is

$q=\frac{[\text {glucose 6-phosphate}][ADP]}{[Glucose][ATP]}$

$q=\frac{(1mm)\times (1.04 mm)}{(7.9mm)\times (2mm)} \\\\=6.582\times 10^{-2}$

so,

$q$ ⇒ following this criteria the reaction will go towards the right direction ( that is forward reaction is favorable until q = Keq

3. Determine the moles of sodium, Na, containing 7.9x1024 atoms.

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

12.7mol Na.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the concept of mole, which stands for the amount of substance, we can recall the concept of Avogadro's number whereby we understand that one mole of any substance contains 6.022x10²³ particles, for the given atoms of sodium, we can calculate the moles as shown below:

$7.9x10^{23}atoms*\frac{1mol}{6.022x10^{23}atoms} \\\\$

Thus, by performing the division we obtain:

$12.7molNa$

Suppose 550.mmol of electrons must be transported from one side of an electrochemical cell to another in 49.0 minutes. Calculate

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

18.0 Ampere is the size of electric current that must flow.

Explanation:

Moles of electron , n = 550 mmol = 0.550 mol

1 mmol = 0.001 mol

Number of electrons = N

$N=N_A\times n$

Charge on N electrons : Q

$Q = N\times 1.602\times 10^{-19} C$

Duration of time charge allowed to pass = T = 49.0 min = 49.0 × 60 seconds

1 min = 60 seconds

Size of current : I

$I=\frac{Q}{T}=\frac{N\times 1.602\times 10^{-19} C}{49.0\times 60 seconds}$

$=\frac{n\times N_A\times 1.602\times 10^{-19} C}{49.0\times 60 seconds}$

$I=\frac{0.550 mol\times 6.022\times 10^{23} mol^{-1}\times 1.602\times 10^{-19} C}{49.0\times 60 seconds}=18.047 A\approx 18.0 A$

18.0 Ampere is the size of electric current that must flow.
