The answer is: B. It ensures that the quality of scientific research is maintained.

Peer review is used to maintain quality standards, point to sources of error and improve performance.  

Work on project is evaluated by people with similar competences (qualified members of a profession within the relevant field) as the scientist who are performing the work.

It is common in the field of health care.

Consensus is achieved through communication at conferences, the publication process, replication and peer review.

How to balance the chemical equation: <br> CO2+H2O--&gt;C6H12O6
Andru [333]

Answer:

6H₂O + 6CO₂ + energy  →   C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

Explanation:

The given reaction represent the formation of glucose so it is photosynthesis reaction.

Photosynthesis:

It is the process in which in the presence of sun light and chlorophyll by using carbon dioxide and water plants produce the oxygen and glucose.

Carbon dioxide + water + energy →   glucose + oxygen

water is supplied through the roots, carbon dioxide collected through stomata and sun light is capture  by chloroplast.

Chemical equation:

6H₂O + 6CO₂ + energy  →   C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

it is known from balanced chemical equation that 6 moles of carbon dioxide react with the six moles of water and created one mole of glucose and six mole of oxygen.

Metals react with oxygen to give oxides with the general formula MxOy. What is a balanced chemical equation for the reaction of
katovenus [111]

Answer: 4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

Here iron is having an oxidation state of +3 called as Fe^{3+} cation and oxide O^{2-} is an anion with oxidation state of -2. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral Fe_2O_3.

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.

2Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3

(3) A 10.00-mL sample of 0.1000 M KH2PO4 was titrated with 0.1000 M HCl Ka for phosphoric acid (H3PO4): Ka1= 7.50x10-3; Ka2=6.20
shtirl [24]

Answer:

The pH of this solution is 1,350

Explanation:

The phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) has three acid dissociation constants:

HPO₄²⁻ ⇄ PO4³⁻ + H⁺        Kₐ₃ = 4,20x10⁻¹⁰  (1)

H₂PO₄⁻ ⇄ HPO4²⁻ + H⁺    Kₐ₂ = 6,20x10⁻⁸   (2)

H₃PO₄ ⇄ H₂PO4⁻ + H⁺       Kₐ₁ = 7,50x10⁻³   (3)

The problem says that you have 10,00 mL of KH₂PO₄ (It means H₂PO₄⁻) 0,1000 M and you add 10,00 mL of HCl (Source of H⁺) 0,1000 M. So you can see that we have the reactives of the equation (3).

We need to know what is the concentration of H⁺ for calculate the pH.

The moles of H₂PO₄⁻ are:

10,00 mL × ( 1x10⁻⁴ mol / mL) = 1x10⁻³ mol

The moles of H⁺ are, in the same way:

10,00 mL × ( 1x10⁻⁴ mol / mL) = 1x10⁻³ mol

So:

H₃PO₄   ⇄      H₂PO4⁻         +        H⁺           Kₐ₁ = 7,50x10⁻³   (3)

X mol     ⇄  (1x10⁻³-X) mol  + (1x10⁻³-X) mol                            (4)

The chemical equilibrium equation is:

Kₐ₁ = ([H₂PO4⁻] × [H⁺] / [H₃PO₄]

So:

7,50x10⁻³ = (1x10⁻³-X)² / X

Solving the equation you will obtain:

X² - 9,5x10⁻³ X + 1x10⁻⁶ = 0

Solving the quadratic formula you obtain two roots:

X = 9,393x10⁻³ ⇒ This one has no chemical logic because solving (4) you will obtain negative H₂PO4⁻ and H⁺ moles

X = 1,065x10⁻⁴

So the moles of H⁺ are : 1x10⁻³- 1,065x10⁻⁴ : 8,935x10⁻⁴ mol

The reaction volume are 20,00 mL (10,00 from both KH₂PO₄ and HCL)

Thus, the molarity of H⁺ ([H⁺]) is: 8,935x10⁻⁴ mol / 0,02000 L = 4,468x10⁻² M

pH is -log [H⁺]. So the obtained pH is 1,350

I hope it helps!
