3 characteristics of the carbon atom that makes possible the building of variety of biological molecules are:
• Carbon atoms can easily form covalent bonds with nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, sulfur and with carbon. The bonds can be single, double or triple between the atoms. This combination of carbon with other elements and with itself results in the formation of huge number of biological molecules.
• The size of carbon atom is very small in comparison to most other atoms. Thus, the bond formed between two carbon atoms is quite short. And the shorter bonds are more stronger than the longer bonds between two atoms, that's why carbon bonds are stable at the different temperatures associated with life.
• Only carbon can form stable four covalent bonds with the other elements, which makes it versatile element to serve as the basic structural component, of the macro-molecules.
1) The saturation point at 25°C is 35.7 g of NaCl / 100 g of water => 35.7 %
Under normal circumstances water will not accept more salt than that.
2) The solution with 1.55 mol of NaCl dissolved in 250 mL of water =>
molar mass of NaCl = 22.99 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol = 58.44 g/mol
grams of NaCl = 1.55 mol * (molar mass of NaCl) = 1.55mol * 58.44 g/mol = 90.58 grams of NaCl
grams of water = 250 mL * 1 g/mL = 250 g/g.
Concentration of the solution: [90.58 g NaCl / 250 g H2O] * 100 = 36.23 %
3) Conclusion: the solution has more salt than the saturation value. This means that the solution is supersaturated.
Supersaturation is a special condition, which is unstable, but that is not part of the questions.
The answer is supersaturated,
Answer: 5 Liters
Explanation:
According to the dilution law,
where,
= concentration of first solution = 24%
= volume of first solution = x L
= concentration of second solution = 14%
= volume of second solution = (10-x) L
= concentration of final solution = 19%
= volume of final solution = 10 L
Putting i the values, we get:
Therefore, 5 Liters of the 24% acid solution are used to make 10 liters of the 19% acid solution.
INFORMATION:
Is given that:
- if you have a block of plastic and a block of copper that are the same mass and are placed in the sun for 10 minutes.
And after the 10 minutes copper has a higher temperature.
We must determine the reason.
STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION:
To determine it, we need to know the concept of specific heat
If the block of copper has a higher temperature after 10 minutes, that means copper needs less heat to raise its temperature.
So, plastic has a higher specific heat than metal, so it takes more energy to heat plastic than copper. As a result, plastic would heat up more slowly.
ANSWER:
The explanation for the copper having a higher temperature after 10 minutes in the sun, is that plastic has a higher specific heat than metal, so it takes more energy to heat plastic than copper. As a result, plastic would heat up more slowly. Since the copper has a lower specific heat, it will be heat quickly.
Answer:
Epoxides, also called oxiranes, have a three-membered ring structure with one oxygen and two carbon atoms.
Epoxides can be formed from alkenes by reaction with peroxy acids (MCPBA for example).
Epoxides can be formed from halohydrin molecules by reaction with a base, which causes an intramolecular Williamson ether synthesis.
Explanation:
Epoxide, cyclic ether with a three-membered ring. The basic structure of an epoxide contains an oxygen atom attached to two adjacent carbon atoms of a hydrocarbon. The strain of the three-membered ring makes an epoxide much more reactive than a typical acyclic ether.
