It is value able because it does not crack while twisting; stretching...
it is important because it is inert to other elements
it is expensive because it is rare.. also mining for gold is very expensive because you have to dig about ten tons of rock or dirt...
also it does not corrode ....

A. 6.07 x 10-15<br> How many significant figures are there in this equation
Harman [31]

Answer:

3

Explanation:

In scientific notation, the number of integers in the first part will always be the amount of significant figures.

For example,

1) 1.542505 x 10^17 =7 significant figures

1) 1.54 x 10^17 =3 significant figures

The enzyme, phosphoglucomutase, catalyzes the interconversion
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

K_{eq = 19

ΔG° of the reaction forming glucose 6-phosphate =  -7295.06 J

ΔG° of the reaction  under cellular conditions = 10817.46 J

Explanation:

Glucose 1-phosphate     ⇄     Glucose 6-phosphate

Given that: at equilibrium, 95% glucose 6-phospate is  present, that implies that we 5% for glucose 1-phosphate

So, the equilibrium constant K_{eq can be calculated as:

K_{eq = \frac{[glucose-6-phosphate]}{[glucose-1-[phosphate]}

K_{eq= \frac{0.95}{0.05}

K_{eq = 19

The formula for calculating ΔG° is shown below as:

ΔG° = - RTinK

ΔG° = - (8.314 Jmol⁻¹ k⁻¹ × 298 k ×  1n(19))

ΔG° = 7295.05957 J

ΔG°≅ - 7295.06 J

b)

Given that; the concentration  for  glucose 1-phosphate = 1.090 x 10⁻² M

the concentration of glucose 6-phosphate is 1.395 x 10⁻⁴ M

Equilibrium constant  K_{eq can be calculated as:

K_{eq = \frac{[glucose-6-phosphate]}{[glucose-1-[phosphate]}

K_{eq}= \frac{1.395*10^{-4}}{1.090*10^{-2}}

K_{eq} = 0.01279816514  M

K_{eq} = 0.0127 M

ΔG° = - RTinK

ΔG° = -(8.314*298*In(0.0127)

ΔG° = 10817.45913 J

ΔG° = 10817.46 J

What are the four points of Dalton's Theory?<br>​
WARRIOR [948]

1. Elements are composed of atoms that are indestructible

2. All atoms of a given element are identical; same size/mass/chemical properties

3. Atoms of 1 element are different from the atoms of other elements

4. Compounds are composed of atoms with more than 1 element. The relative number of atoms for each element are of a given compound are always going to be the same.

(Extra one) 5. Chemical reactions are only ever going involve the rearrangement of the atoms. Atoms are not created/destroyed during the chemical reactions. (Law of Conservation of Mass: nothing can ever be created or destroyed.)

A 0.0795-g sample of magnesium metal reacts with hydrochloric acid to give 88.5 mL of hydrogen gas at 25 degree C and 766 mm Hg.
Trava [24]

Answer:

(a). 0.0037 mol.

(b). 22.42 L

(c). => When the measuring apparatus are not precise.

=> Error due to parallax.

=> Random errors.

Explanation:

Without mincing words let us dive straight into the solution to the question above. So, we are given the following parameters or information which are going to aid in solving this particular Question;

Mass of magnesium given= 0.0795 g, volume of Hydrogen = 88.5 mL = 0.0885 L, temperature = 25 degree C = 273 + 25 = 298K and pressure = 766 mm Hg = 766/760 = 1.00789 atm.

(a). In order to determine the number of moles of Hydrogen atoms,we will be making use of the formula below;

Number of moles = (pressure × Volume)/ gas constant,R × Temperature.

Thus,the number of moles of Hydrogen = 1.00789 × 0.0885 / [( 0.08206 × 298] = 0.0037 mol.

(b). The molar volume at stp can be calculated by using the same formula that was used in (a) above;

Molar Volume at stp = Gas constant,R × temperature/ Pressure = 0.08206 × 273 / 1 atm = 22.42 L.

(c). The major sources of errors are given below:

=> When the measuring apparatus are not precise.

=> Error due to parallax.

=> Random errors.
