Molar mass of a compound is the equivalent mass of the compound per mole of it. To determine the molar mass of hemoglobin, we need to know the mass and the number of moles that is present in a certain sample. We make use of the values given above.
Given
0.340 percent Fe = 0.340 g Fe / 100 g hemoglobin
4 atoms Fe per 1 molecule of hemoglobin

Solution:
4 atoms Fe per 1 molecule of hemoglobin ( 1 mol Fe / 6.022 x10^23 atoms Fe) ( 55 .85 g Fe/ 1 mol Fe ) ( 6.022x10^23 molecule hemoglobin / 1 mol hemoglobin ) = 223.4 g Fe / mol hemoglobin

Molar mass = (100 g hemoglobin / 0.340 g Fe) (223.4 g Fe / mol hemoglobin) = 65705.88 g/mol hemoglobin

Balance the equation by inserting coefficients as needed. equation: ZnS + HBr -> ZnBr_{2} + H_{2}S ZnS + HBr ⟶ ZnBr 2 + H 2 S
yawa3891 [41]

Answer : The balanced chemical reaction will be,

ZnS+2HBr\rightarrow ZnBr_2+H_2S

Explanation :

Balanced chemical reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the number of atoms of individual elements present on reactant side must be equal to the product side.

If the amount of atoms of each type on the left and right sides of a reaction differs then to balance the equation by adding coefficient in the front of the elements or molecule or compound in the chemical equation.

The coefficient tell us about that how many molecules or atoms present in the chemical equation.

The given chemical reaction is,

ZnS+HBr\rightarrow ZnBr_2+H_2S

This reaction is an unbalanced chemical reaction because in this reaction number of hydrogen bromine atoms are not balanced.

In order to balance the chemical equation, the coefficient '2' put before the HBr and we get the balanced chemical equation.

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

ZnS+2HBr\rightarrow ZnBr_2+H_2S

(there are 2 quetions) how is heat being transfered in:
alekssr [168]

Answer:

  1. Heat energy is transferred from homes by conduction through the walls, floor, roof and windows. It is also transferred from homes by convection. For example, cold air can enter the house through gaps in doors and windows, and convection currents can transfer heat energy in the loft to the roof tiles.
  2. Convection is the heat transfer due to the movement of a fluid, such as a gas or liquid, and carries heat energy away from the source of heat. When a substance is heated, it causes its particles to vibrate more. The more vibration, the more space they will take up and the less dense they will become.

I really hope it helps! ❤

Calculate the mass of water produced when 42 g of propane, c3h8, is burned with 115 g of oxygen
gavmur [86]
The balanced combustion reaction of propane, C₃H₈, is

C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O

Molar mass of propane: 44 g/mol
Moles of propane = 42 g * (1 mol/44g) = 0.9545 mol propane

Molar mass of oxygen: 32 g/mol
Moles of oxygen = 115 g * (1 mol/32 g) = 3.594 mol oxygen

Moles of oxygen needed to completely react propane:
0.9545 mol propane * (5 mol O₂/1 mol propane) = 4.7725 mol oxygen

Since the available oxygen is only 3.594 moles and propane needs 4.7725 moles, that means oxygen is our limiting reactant. We base the amount of water produced here.

Molar mass of water: 18 g/mol
Mass of water produced = 3.594 mol O₂ * (4 mol H₂O/5 mol O₂) * (18 g/mol)
Mass of water produced = 258.768 grams
