A phospholipid structure is shown in the picture attached. It has three parts: the hydrophobic tail, the hydrophilic head and the phosphate group in the center. Thus, the function of the phosphate group is to link the hydrophobic and hydrophilic parts of a phospholipid. Specifically, the phosphate group is part of the hydrophilic head. So, it is used to connect the phospholipids to polar compounds.

A mixture of C3H8 and C2H2 has a mass of 2.8 g. It is burned in excess O2 to form a mixture of water and carbon dioxide that con
astraxan [27]

Answer:

The mass of C2H2 in the mixture is 0.56gram using the ratio of carbon in the products contributed by the C2H2.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is: C3H8 + 2C2H2 + 10O2 >> 7CO2 + 6H2O.

From the reaction, we know that the oxygen was in excess, this will make the Carbon sources the limiting agents in the reaction. The details of the reaction showed that the ratio of water to the carbon dioxide is 1.6:1. This also means that the expected mole of carbon dioxide will be 7/1.6, which is 3.75moles.

The individual balanced equation of reaction is:

C3H3 +5O2 >> 3CO2 + 4H2O

and 2C2H2 + 5O2 >>4CO2 + 2H2O. From this one can quickly tell that the propane is in sufficient supply as it produces 3 moles of CO2 out of the expected 3.75 moles obtained above. Leaving 0.75moles of CO2 to the ethyne.

The mass of ethyne in the mixture will therefore be: 0.75/3.75 X 2.8 = 0.56g.

How to balance barium and oxygen yield barium oxide
olga55 [171]
Barium : Ba^{+2} with +2 being the charge
Oxygen : O^{-2} with -2 being the charge

The given equation can be written as:
Ba + O = BaO

Since the sum charges of Barium and Oxygen equals 0, there is no need to add subscripts.

Both Ba and O appear on the left and right side of the equation once, so there is no need to add a coefficient.

Ba + O = BaO is balanced
