Answer: This rod-shape prokaryotic cell has 3.740,734725‬ molecules

Explanation:

<u>Step 1 :</u> given data

Molarity of the prokaryotic cell = 0.0035 M

Length of the cell = 4.2 μm = 4.2 * 10^-6 m

diameter of the cell = 1.3 μm = 1.3 * 10^-6 m

<u>Step 2: </u>calculate volume

To calculate volume of a rod, weneef to know the radius.

V = r ² × l

The radius = half of the diameter : r = d/2 ⇒ (1.3 * 10^-6 m)/2 = 0.65 * 10^-6 m

V= (0.65 * 10^-6 m)² * 4.2 * 10^-6 m = 1.7745 * 10 ^-18 L

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculating number of moles

Number of moles = Concentration * Volume

moles = 0.0035 M * 1.7745 * 10 ^-18 L = 6.21075 * 10^-21 moles‬

<u>Step 4:</u> calculating number of molecules

1 mole contains 6.023 * 10 ^-23 molecules

6.21075 * 10^-21 moles contain : 6.21075 * 10^-21 * 6.023 * 10 ^-23 molecules = 3.740,734725‬ molecules

This rod-shape prokaryotic cell has 3.740,734725‬ molecules

How many grams of water can be formed from the reaction of 8.76 grams of H2 with 10.5 liters of O2 (at STP) according to the bal
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

16.9g of H₂O can be formed

Explanation:

Based on the chemical reaction, 2 moles of H₂ react per mole of O₂. To anser this question we must find limiting reactant converting the mass and volume of each reactant to moles:

<em>Moles H₂ -Molar mass: 2.016g/mol-:</em>

8.76g * (1mol / 2.016g) = 4.345 moles

<em>Moles O₂:</em>

PV = nRT

PV/RT = n

P = 1atm at STP

V = 10.5L

R = 0.082atmL/molK

T = 273.15K at STP

n = 1atm*10.5L / 0.082atmL/molK*273.15K

n = 0.469 moles of oxygen

For a complete reaction of 4.345 moles moles of hydrogen are required:

4.345 moles H2 * (1mol O2 / 2mol H2) = 2.173 moles of O2 are required. As there are just 0.469 moles, Oxygen is limiting reactant

Now, 1 mole of O2 produce 2 moles of H2O. 0.469 moles will produce:

0.469 moles O₂ * (2 moles H₂O / 1mol O₂) = 0.938 moles H₂O.

The mass is -Molar mas H₂O = 18.01g/mol-:

0.938 moles * (18.01g/mol) =

<h3>16.9g of H₂O can be formed</h3>

The correct mathematical expression for finding the molar solubility (s) of sn(oh)2 is:
lara [203]
Answer is: Ksp = 4s³.
Balanced chemical reaction (dissociation) of strontium hydroxide:
Sr(OH)₂(s) → Sr²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq).
Ksp(Sr(OH)₂) = [Sr²⁺]·[OH⁻]².<span>
[</span>Sr²⁺] = s.<span>
[</span>OH⁻] = [Sr²⁺] = 2s<span>
Ksp = (2s)² · x = 4s³.
Ksp is the solubility product constant for a solid substance dissolving in an aqueous solution.
[</span>Sr²⁺] is equilibrium concentration of iumcations.<span>
[</span>OH⁻] is equilibrium concentration of hydroxide anions.
