What is the representative particle for silicon

1 answer:

7 0

The representative particle for silicon is atom of silicon.
Representative particles can be atoms, molecules, formula units or ions. Representative particles depend on the nature of the substance. Silicon is chemical element made of atoms.
For sodium chloride (NaCl) for example, representative particles are ions.

You decided to prepare a phosphate buffer from solid sodium dihydrogen phosphate (NaH2PO4) and disodium hydrogen phosphate (Na2H

KIM [24]

Answer:

For disodium hydrogen phosphate:

5.32g Na2HPO4

For sodium dihydrogen phosphate:

7.65g Na2HPO4

Explanation:

First, you have to put all the data from the problem that you going to use:

-NaH2PO4 (weak acid)

-Na2HPO4 (a weak base)

-Volume = 1L

-Buffer pH = 7.00

-Concentration of [NaH2PO4 + Na2HPO4] = 0.100 M

What we need to find the pKa of the weak acid, in this case NaH2PO4, for that you need to find the Ka (acid constant) of NaH2PO4, and for this we use the pKa of the phosphoric acid as follow:

H3PO4 = H2PO4 + H+ pKa1 = 2.14

H2PO4 = HPO4 + H+ pKa2 = 6.86

HPO4 = PO4 + H+ pKa3 = 12.4

So, for the preparation of buffer, you need to use the pKa that is near to the value of the pH that you want, so the choice will be:

pKa2= 6.86

Now we going to use the Henderson Hasselbalch equation for the pH of a buffer solution:

pH = pKa2 + log [(NaH2PO4)/(Na2HPO4)]

The solution of the problem is attached to this answer.

Draw the structure of 4-chlorophthalic acid in the window below.

neonofarm [45]

The structure of 4-chlorophthalic acid is attached below:

4-chlorophthalic acid is a dibasic acid i.e. it has 2 replaceable hydrogen atom. As compared to mineral acids, it is a weak acid. However, as compared to aliphatic acid, it is a strong acid. This is because of resonance effect.

What fraction of the carbon dioxide exhaled by animals is generated by the reactions of the citric acid cycle

puteri [66]

Answer:

1/3

Explanation:

Pyruvate is produced by the glycolysis in cytoplasm. The oxidation of pyruvate takes place in mitochondrial matrix.

Pyruvate is converted to acetyl-CoA in the reaction given below:

Pyruvate + NAD⁺ + CoA-SH ⇒ acetyl-CoA + NADH + CO₂

1 molecule of carbon dioxide is eliminated from 1 molecule of pyruvate.

Also,

2 molecules of carbon dioxide is eliminated from 2 molecules of pyruvate (as glucose on glycolysis yields 2 molecules of pyruvate).

Also, acetyl-CoA further goes into the citric acid cycle and produces 2 molecules of carbon dioxide.

Thus pyruvate produces total 3 molecules of CO₂ and hence glucose produces 6 molecules of CO₂ (as glucose on glycolysis yields 2 molecules of pyruvate)

Thus,

Fraction = 2/6 = 1/3
