Answer:

- The metal industry uses large quantities of copper sulphate as an electrolyte in copper refining, for copper coating steel wire prior to wire drawing and in various copper plating processes .

- The mining industry employs it as an activator in the concentration by froth flotation of lead, zinc, cobalt and gold ores .

- The paint industry uses it in anti-fouling paints and it plays a part in the colouring of glass.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since copper sulphate also known as blue stone, blue vitriol is more commonly found in a pentahydrated cupric sulphate due to its stability. In fact it is often the starting raw material for the production of other varied copper-based salts. Henceforth, you will find three applications.

How many moles are in 4.35 X 1024 atoms of Iron (Fe)?

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 7.23 moles</h3>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

$n = \frac{N}{L} \\$

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

$n = \frac{4.35 \times {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times {10}^{23} } \\ = 7.225913...$

We have the final answer as

<h3>7.23 moles</h3>

Backpackers often use canisters of white gas to fuel a cooking stove’s burner. If one canister contains 1.45 L of white gas, and

rusak2 [61]

1 L ------- 1000 cm³
1.45 L ----- ???

1.45 * 1000 = 1450 cm³ ( volume )

Density = 0.710 g/cm³

mass = in Kg

m = D * V

m = 0.710 * 1450

m = 1029.5 g

1 Kg ------- 1000 g
kg -------- 1029.5 g

mass = 1029.5 / 1000

mass = 1.0295 Kg

hope this helps!

A purified protein has a molecular mass of 360 kDa when measured by size exclusion chromatography. When analyzed by gel electrop

Dimas [21]

Answer:

A protein has four subunits whose molecular masses are 140, 80, and 60 kDa.

A disulfide bond links the two 80 kDa subunits (possibly identical).

Explanation:

Given that:

A protein has four subunits whose molecular masses are 140, 80, and 60 kDa.

A disulfide bond links the two 80 kDa subunits (possibly identical).

As a result of SDS and dithiothreitol analysis treatment, the molecular masses can not be 360 in total. They are 280, which implies that they are in short of 80 kDa. This means that there are possibilities that two groups with a molecular mass of 80 kDa which are joined by a disulfide bond.

The presence of SDS and dithiothreitol acts as a reducing agent, and they can break disulfide bonds whose pH is greater than 7, i.e. those in basic condition.

HELP PLEASE THE OTHER 'ANSWER' ISNT EVEN AN ANSWER!

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

most likely that (2) the replicated experiment was performed incorrectly.

Why, u ask? u dare question me:

1- The initial experiment invalidness cannot be proven.

2- the second answer is correct

3- Different labaratories does not effect the outcome, as long as the parameter and environment of the replicated experiment is the same as when the initial experiment was conducted.

4- Already knowing the data and errors would increase the precision of the replicated experiment.

5- Change in variables should still be in the objective (or purpose) of the experiment, thus, major difference in the outcome should not happen.

happy learning!
