Redox reactions consist of reduction and oxidation reactions
oxidation reactions are the giving out of electrons, the oxidation number of the species giving out the electrons increases during oxidation 
reduction reactions are taking in electrons and the oxidation number of the species taking in electrons reduces after reduction
in the reaction Ca + Cl₂ --> CaCl₂
oxidation numbers of Ca in Ca - 0 and CaCl₂ - +2
oxidation numbers of Cl in Cl₂ - 0 and CaCl₂ - -1
oxidation number of Ca has increased from 0 to +2 therefore Ca is oxidised

1 mole has 6.02*10^23 molecules in it.

1 nickel (II) chloride molecule, NiCl2, has 1 Ni atom in it.

so 1 mole of nickel (II) chloride molecule has 1 mole of Ni atom in it.

so 100 moles of nickel (II) chloride molecule has 100*6.02*10^23

= 6.02*10^25 Ni atom in it.

Investigators studying a particular cell response are curious about what type of cell-surface receptor might trigger it. They in
belka [17]

Answer:

An ion channel, more specifically a calcium channel.

Explanation:

The electrical activity of the cells is regulated by ion channels. Calcium channels, also referred as the voltage-gated calcium channels constitute one group of a superfamily of ion channels. A change in voltage across the membrane or small molecules triggers calcium channels to open, allowing calcium to flow into the cell. Inside the cell, calcium acts as a second messenger, it binds to calcium sensitive proteins to induce different responses and support several functions such as muscle contraction, hormone and neurotransmitter secretion, gene regulation, activation of other ion channels, control of action potentials, cell survival, etc.

Q #13 How many moles of MgCl2 are there in 350. g of compound?
Vaselesa [24]

<u>Answer:</u>

3.67 moles

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We need to find out the number of MgCl_2 moles present in 350 grams of a compound.

Molar mass of Mg = 24.305

Molar mass of Cl_2 = 35.453

So, one mole of MgCl_2 = 24.305 + (35.453 * 2) = 95.211g

1 Mole in 1 molecule of MgCl_2 = \frac{1}{95.211} = 0.0105

Therefore, number of moles in 350 grams of compound = 0.0105 * 350

= 3.67 moles

1.Using the absorbance of the spinach extract and the equation of the trendline, determine the concentration of the extract solu
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

We are to make use of the spinach absorbance extract which is the corrected absorbance  (y) = 0.306

And also the trendline equation:

y = 1609x + 0.0055

where,

x = absorbance of the spinach extract.

∴

0.306 = 1609x + 0.0055

collecting the like terms

0.306 - 0.0055 = 1609x

0.3005  = 1609x

x = 0.3005/1609

x = 1.8676 × 10⁻⁴

x ≅ 0.0002 M

No. of grams for the chlorophyll can be computed as follows:

recall that:

molar mass of chlorophyll = 893.5 g/mol

the volume = 25ml = (25/1000) L = 0.025 L

∴

In spinach solution, the no. of grams for the chlorophyll:

= (0.0002) mol/L × (893.5 g/mol) × (0.025) L

= 0.0044675 g

≅ 0.0045 g

In the spinach, the concentration of chlorophyll = no of grams of chlorophyll/ mass of the spinach

= 4.5 mg/0.1876 g

= 23.987 mg/g

≅ 24 mg/g
