You heat 51 grams of magnesium over a Bunsen burner for several minutes until it reacts with oxygen in the air. Then you weigh t

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The mass was there all along, it was just in the air. The weight of the oxygen from the air is not weighed in the beginning, only at the end as part of the product, making it seem like there is a total mass change.

There are some data that suggest that zinc lozenges can significantly shorten the duration of a cold. If the solubility of zinc

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

$K_{sp}$ of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ is 0.0513

Explanation:

Solubility equilibrium of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ :

$Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}\rightleftharpoons Zn^{2+}+2CH_{3}COO^{-}$

Solubility product of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ ( $K_{sp}$ ) is written as- $K_{sp}=[Zn^{2+}][CH_{3}COO^{-}]^{2}$

Where $[Zn^{2+}]$ and $[CH_{3}COO^{-}]$ represents equilibrium concentration (in molarity) of $Zn^{2+}$ and $CH_{3}COO^{-}$ respectively.

Molar mass of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ = 183.48 g/mol

So, solubility of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ = $\frac{43.0}{183.48}M$ = 0.234M

1 mol of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ gives 1 mol of $Zn^{2+}$ and 2 moles of $CH_{3}COO^{-}$ upon dissociation.

so, $[Zn^{2+}]$ = 0.234 M and $[CH_{3}COO^{-}]$ = $(2\times 0.234)M=0.468M$

so, $K_{sp}=(0.234)\times (0.468)^{2}=0.0513$

Assume that instead of Taq polymerase, another polymerase, one that is very heat-sensitive, was used in a PCR. What differences

frez [133]

Answer:

Taq polymerase is a thermostable which states that it can even work at higher temperature. The main function of using this enzyme is that it is used to amplify the DNA which will help in producing ample amount of DNA sample.

The enzyme activity is temperature dependent. The denaturation and annealing steps of the PCR occurs at very high temperature.

Any other enzyme used at such an high temperature would have decreased the enzyme activity and the procedure would not be completed.
