Karolina [17]3 years ago

Answer:

2NH4NO3 —> 2N2 + O2 + 4H2O

Explanation:

We begin by writing the skeletal equation as shown below:

NH4NO3 —> N2 + O2 + H2O

The equation can be balance as follow:

There are 4 atoms of H on the left side of the equation and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of H2O as shown below:

NH4NO3 —> N2 + O2 + 2H2O

Now we have a total of 4 atoms of O on the left side and 3 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 1/2 in front of O2 as shown below:

NH4NO3 —> N2 + 1/2O2 + 2H2O

Now, multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction as shown below

2NH4NO3 —> 2N2 + O2 + 4H2O

Now the equation is balanced

List or draw two ways to visually represent C6H14
KonstantinChe [14]
There are several ways to visually represent compounds. For this particular organic compound, we can use the skeletal formula and the expanded formula. The skeletal makes use of lines to show which atoms are bonded to each other. The expanded formula shows the species of the atoms and their bonding with other atoms. I have attached the two representations.

Calculate the osmotic pressure associated with 50.0 g of an enzyme of molecular weight 98 g/mol dissolved in water to give 2600
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

π = 4,882 atm

Explanation:

To calculate the osmotic pressure (π), the <em>Van´t Hoff equation</em> must be used, which is:

π x V = n x R x T

<em>Where: </em>

• π: Osmotic pressure, which is the difference between the levels of the solution and the pure solvent through a semipermeable membrane, which allows the passage of the solvent but not the solute

• V: Volume of the solution, in liters unit

• n: Number of moles of solute

• R: Constant of ideal gases, equal to 0.08206 L.atm / mol.K

• T: Absolute temperature, in Kelvin degrees

With the data you provide you can calculate the osmotic pressure by clearing it from the equation, we would be equal to:

π = (n x R x T) / V

However, all data must first be converted to the corresponding units in order to replace the values ​​in the equation.

<em>Solution volume ⇒ go from mL to L: </em>

1000 mL of solution ____ 1 L

2600 mL of solution _____ X = 2.6 L

Calculation: 2600 mL x 1 L / 1000 mL = 2.6 L

<em>Temperature ⇒ Go from ° C to K </em>

T (K) = t (° C) + 273.15 = 30.0 ° C + 273.15 = 303.15 K

<em>Number of moles of solute ⇒</em> <em>It can be calculated since we have the mass of the enzyme and its molecular mass: </em>

98.0 g of enzyme ____ 1 mol

50.0 g of enzyme _____ X = 0.510 moles

Calculation: 50.0 g x 1 mol / 98.0 g = 0.510 moles

Now, you can replace the values ​​in the Van´t Hoff equation and you will get the result:

 π = (n x R x T) / V

π = (0.510 mol x 0.08206 L.atm / mol.K x 303.15 K) / 2.6 L = 4.882 atm

Therefore, <em>the osmotic pressure will be 4,882 atm</em>

Gold is alloyed (mixed) with other metals to increase its hardness in making jewelry.
KiRa [710]

Answer:

A) 54.04%

B) 13-karat

Explanation:

A) From the problem we have

<em>1)</em> Mg + Ms = 9.40 g

<em>2)</em> Vg + Vs = 0.675 cm³

Where M stands for mass, V stands for volume, and g and s stand for gold and silver respectively.

We can rewrite the first equation using the density values:

<em>3)</em> Vg * 19.3 g/cm³ + Vs * 10.5 g/cm³ = 9.40

So now we have<em> a system of two equations</em> (2 and 3) <em>with two unknowns</em>:

We <u>express Vg in terms of Vs</u>:

  • Vg + Vs = 0.675 cm³
  • Vg = 0.675 - Vs

We <u>replace the value of Vg in equation 3</u>:

  • Vg * 19.3 + Vs * 10.5 = 9.40
  • (0.675-Vs) * 19.3 + Vs * 10.5 = 9.40
  • 13.0275 - 19.3Vs + 10.5Vs = 9.40
  • -8.8 Vs + 13.0275 = 9.40
  • <u>Vs = 0.412 cm³</u>

Now we <u>calculate Vg</u>:

  • Vg + Vs = 0.675 cm³
  • Vg + 0.412 cm³ = 0.675 cm³
  • Vg = 0.263 cm³

We <u>calculate Mg from Vg</u>:

  • 0.263 cm³ * 19.3 g/cm³ = 5.08 g

We calculate the mass percentage of gold:

  • 5.08 / 9.40 * 100% = 54.04%

B)

We multiply 24 by the percentage fraction:

  • 24 * 54.04/100 = 12.97-karat ≅ 13-karat

What is the formula of this<br> inorganic salt hydrate?
barxatty [35]

Salt hydrates are an important class of PCMs. An inorganic salt hydrate (hydrated salt or hydrate) is an ionic compound in which the ions attract a number of water molecules, which are then trapped inside the crystal lattice. A hydrated salt has the generic formula MxNy. nH2O.
