The correct answer is B. Platinum is the transition element among the choices. The elements belonging to this group are those having a partially filled d or f subshell. It usually refers to the d-block transition elements of the periodic table.
Iron (III) chloride catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide because the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is usually inhibited by the presence of ions such as phosphate ions in solution. The iron ions that would result from the dissolution of iron (III) chloride have a charge of 3+ and would bond with the -3 charged phosphate ions, creating a non-charged FePO4 molecule and removing the decomposition inhibitor from the solution. Potassium iodide and potassium chloride both are more strongly bonded than a transition metal compound and would lack the necessary charged iron ion when added to hydrogen peroxide.
Answer:
1.155 moles of potassium nitrate are required to make 550 mL of a 2.1M solution.
Explanation:
In a mixture, the chemical present in the greatest amount is called a solvent, while the other components are called solutes.
Molarity is a unit of concentration of a solution and indicates the amount of moles of solute that appear dissolved in each liter of the mixture. In other words, the Molarity (M) or Molar Concentration is the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a given volume.
The Molarity of a solution is determined by the following expression:

Molarity is expressed in units (
).
In this case:
- Molarity= 2.1 M
- number of moles of solute= ?
- Volume= 550 mL= 0.550 L (being 1L=1000 mL)
Replacing:

Solving:
number of moles of solute= 2.1 M* 0.550 L
number of moles of solute= 1.155 moles
1.155 moles of potassium nitrate are required to make 550 mL of a 2.1M solution.
Answer:

Explanation:
Force is equal to mass times acceleration.

By dividing both sides by m, we rearrange the formula for a (acceleration).

The force is 6.2 Newtons, but we can convert the units to make the problem easier later on.
- A Newton is equal to 1 kg*m/s², so 6.2 N is equal to 6.2 kg*m/s².
The mass is 2300 grams, but we need to convert it to kilograms.
- To convert grams to kilograms, divide by 1,000
- 2300 g/1000= 2.3 kg

Substitute the values into the formula.

Divide. Note that the kilograms or "kg" will cancel each other out (this is why we converted the units).


Round to the nearest tenth. The 9 in the hundredth place tells us to round up to 2.7

The acceleration is about <u>2.7 meters per second squared.</u>
