Answer:

a. The apparatus required to purify gypsum sample are: Bunsen burner, beaker, Filter Funnel, stirring rod, the filter paper.

b. Gypsum is a sulfate mineral that is made up of calcium sulfate dihydrate. Step-by-step instruction to purify gypsum sample is as follows:

1. Add water to the gypsum sample in a beaker.

2. Use the stirring rod to mix the mixture well.

3. Filter off the excess solid from the mixture using the filter paper and filter funnel.

4. Put the filtered mixture over the bunsen burner and evaporate the excess water from the mixture.

5. Allow the hot liquid to cool down and filter it again through the filter paper to get the pure gypsum.

Convert 3 moles of h2o into grams

lilavasa [31]

To convert 3 mol H2O to grams, just multiply by the molar mass of H2O.

<span>3 mol H2O * 18 g H2O / 1 mol H2O = 54 g H2O

Hope this helped.</span>

A solution is prepared by dissolving 0.23 mol of hypochlorous acid and 0.27 mol of sodium hypochlorite in water sufficient to yi

finlep [7]

Answer:

hypochlorite ion

Explanation:

The hypochlorous acid, HClO, is a weak acid with Ka = 1.36x10⁻³, when this acid is in solution with its conjugate base, ClO⁻ (From sodium hypochlorite, NaClO) a buffer is produced. When a strong acid as HCl is added, the reaction that occurs is:

HCl + ClO⁻ → HClO + Cl⁻.

Where more hypochlorous acid is produced.

That means, the HCl reacts with the hypochlorite ion present in solution

The iodine "clock reaction" involves the following sequence of reactions occurring in a reaction mixture in a single beaker. 1.

Mars2501 [29]

C: 0.012 mol.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Start with 0.0020 moles of iodate ions ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ .

How many moles of iodine $\text{I}_2$ will be produced?

${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ converts to $\text{I}_2$ in the first reaction. The coefficient in front of $\text{I}_2$ is three times the coefficient in front of ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ . In other words, each mole of ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ will produce three moles of $\text{I}_2$ . 0.0020 moles of ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ will convert to 0.0060 moles of $\text{I}_2$ .

How many moles of thiosulfate ions ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ are required?

$\text{I}_2$ reacts with ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ in the second reaction. The coefficient in front of $\text{I}_2$ is twice the coefficient in front of ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ . How many moles of ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ does each mole of $\text{I}_2$ consume? Two. 0.0060 moles of $\text{I}_2$ will be produced. As a result, $2 \times 0.0060 = 0.0120$ moles of ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ will be needed.

Match the specific enzyme to its class. A. oxidoreductase B. hydrolase C. transferase D. ligase E. lyase aminase

lilavasa [31]

Answer: Every enzyme has a specific name that can give us insight into the specific reaction that that enzyme can catalyze. We divide them into six different categories.

1) Oxidoreductase - includes two different types of reactions by transferring electrons from either molecule A to B or vice versa. It is involved in oxidizing electrons away from a molecule.

2) Hydrolase - uses water to divide a molecule into two other molecules.

3) Transferase - you move some functional group X from molecule B to molecule A

4) Ligase - catalyzes reactions between two molecules, A and B, that are combining to form a complex between the two. (example: DNA replication)

5) Lyase - divides a molecule into two other molecules without using water and without reducing or oxidation
