The correct answers are tails of comets, the ionosphere, and a neon sign.

Plasma refers to an ionized gas, and is generally regarded as a discrete phase of matter. In this case ionized signifies that at least one electron has been dissociated from a substantial ratio of the molecules. The tails of comets are primarily formed of plasma. Ice cubes are an example of solid component. A gas fire is an example of gas. The ionosphere is primarily formed of plasma. A neon sign utilizes plasma in order to function, while a flashlight utilizes a light bulb, which is not an example of plasma.

Calculate the mass of H2OH2O produced by metabolism of 1.6 kgkg of fat, assuming the fat consists entirely of tristearin (C57H11

kakasveta [241]

Answer: 1779.8g of H2O

Explanation:

C57H110O6 + O2 —> CO2 + H20

To calculate the amount of water(H2O) produced by the reaction of 1.6Kg tristearin(C57H110O6) and O2, we must first balance the equation.

To do so, add 2 in front of C57H110O6, 163 in front of O2, 114 in front of CO2 and 110 in front of H2O i.e

2C57H110O6 + 163O2 —> 114CO2 + 110H20

Next, we have to calculate the mass of tristearin(C57H110O6) that reacted and the mass of water produced from the balanced equation. This can be done by:

MM of C57H110O6 = (57x12) + (110x1) + (6x16) = 684 + 110 + 96 = 890g/mol

Mass conc of C57H110O6 = 890 x 2 = 1780g

MM of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass conc of H2O = 110 x 18 = 1980g

Next, we will find the amount of water produced by 1.6Kg(i.e 1600g) of tristearin(C57H110O6). This is done by:

From the equation,

1780g of C57H110O6 produced 1980g of H2O.

Therefore 1600g of C57H110O6 will produce = (1600x1980)/1780 = 1779.8g of H2O

Why do we use molecular models to represent atoms?

Bogdan [553]

The molecular model is physical model of the atomic system used to represent molecules and their processes. It is used to understand chemistry and generating and testing hypotheses and it is the most commonly used explicit representation of atoms.

Phosgene, a poisonous gas, when heated will decompose into carbon monoxide and chlorine in a reversible reaction: COCl2 (g) <

Advocard [28]

Answer:

8.08 × 10⁻⁴

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

COCl₂(g) ⇄ CO (g) + Cl₂(g)

The initial concentration of phosgene is:

M = 2.00 mol / 1.00 L = 2.00 M

We can find the final concentrations using an ICE chart.

COCl₂(g) ⇄ CO (g) + Cl₂(g)

I 2.00 0 0

C -x +x +x

E 2.00 -x x x

The equilibrium concentration of Cl₂, x, is 0.0398 mol / 1.00 L = 0.0398 M.

The concentrations at equilibrium are:

[COCl₂] = 2.00 -x = 1.96 M

[CO] = [Cl₂] = 0.0398 M

The equilibrium constant (Keq) is:

Keq = [CO].[Cl₂]/[COCl₂]

Keq = (0.0398)²/1.96

Keq = 8.08 × 10⁻⁴

When two aqueous solutions are mixed together the temperature of the solution decreases?

Andre45 [30]

When two aqueous solutions are mixed together and the temperature of the solution decreases, the reaction is called an endothermic reaction with a positive enthalpy change. Endothermic reaction is when heat is absorbed by the reaction taking place. All endothermic reaction always have a positive enthalpy change.
