Answer: 19.4 grams of chlorine

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

4PCl_3\rightarrow P_4+6Cl_2

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to the molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

4 moles of PCl_3 decompose to give 6 moles of Cl_2

4\times 137=548g of  PCl_3 decompose to give 6\times 71=426g of Cl_2

Thus 25 g of PCl_3 decompose to give \frac{426}{548}\times 25=19.4g of Cl_2

Thus 19.4 grams of chlorine will be produced.

devlian [24]

Answer:

Hummingbirds have a very high metabolism and must eat all day long just to survive. They consume about half their body weight in bugs and nectar, feeding every 10-15 minutes and visiting 1,000-2,000 flowers throughout the day.

Ethyl ethanoate undergoes following reaction [on the picture]
vichka [17]

<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of ethyl ethanoate at equilibrium is 0.653mol/dm^3

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given values:

Equilibrium concentration of ethanol = 0.42mol/dm^3

Equilibrium concentration of ethanoic acid = 0.42mol/dm^3

K_c=0.27

The given chemical equation follows:

CH_3COOC_2H_5+H_2O\rightleftharpoons C_2H_5OH+CH_3COOH

The expression of K_c for above equation follows:

K_c=\frac{[C_2H_5OH][CH_3COOH]}{[CH_3COOC_2H_5]}

Putting values in above expression, we get:

0.27=\frac{0.42\times 0.42}{[CH_3COOC_2H_5]}

[CH_3COOC_2H_5]=\frac{0.42\times 0.42}{0.27}=0.653mol/dm^3

Hence, the concentration of ethyl ethanoate at equilibrium is 0.653mol/dm^3

Both cholesterol and oleic acid are lipids. What property do they have in common?
OLga [1]
Cholesterol and oleic acid are non-polar (hydrophobic) compounds, soluble in organic solvents. Most membrane lipids are amphipathic, having a non-polar end and a polar end. Oleic acid and other fatty acids are hydrophobic (not soluble in water).
