Antibiotics can also make bacteria stronger for the next time the infections reenters the body it cod become immune to it

katrin [286]3 years ago

Explanation:

When a sick person takes antibiotics, the drugs begin to kill off the bacteria. But if treatment stops prematurely, it leaves some microbes alive -- the ones with mutations that make them resistant to the drugs. As these survivors multiply, they pass along their protective mutations to all their descendants.

What is the molality of a solution that contains 1.34 moles of NaCl in 2.47 kg of solvent
dsp73

The molality is 0.54 M when 1.34 moles of NaCl is present in 2.47 kg of solvent.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Molality is the measure of how much of amount of solute is dissolved in the solvent. So it is calculated as the ratio of moles of solute to the grams of solvent.

         \text {Molality}=\frac{\text {Moles of solute}}{\text {Mass of solvent}}

As in this case, the solute is NaCl and solvent is unknown. So the moles of solute is given as 1.34 moles and the mass of solvent is given as 2.47 kg.

Hence, \text { molality }=\frac{1.34}{2.47}= 0.54 \mathrm{M}

Thus, the molality is 0.54 M when 1.34 moles of NaCl is present in 2.47 kg of solvent.

Modern pennies are composed of zinc coated with copper. A student determines the mass of a penny to be 2.483 g and then makes se
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

97.1%

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas equation, the number of moles of hydrogen gas produced can be calculated from information provided about the volume of gas evolved at a given temperature and pressure.

The stoichiometry of the reaction is now used to obtain the number of moles of Zn that will produce a given number of moles of hydrogen from the balanced reaction equation as shown. This gives us the number of moles of zinc reacted hence the mass of zinc in the coin since it is assumed that all the zinc reacts.

This is now used to calculate the mass percentage of Zn as shown.
