Where does most of the mass of the universe come from? In ordinary matter, most of the mass is contained in atoms, and the majority of the mass of an atom resides in the nucleus, made of protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are each made of three quarks.

20.0 g of Nitrogen is produced when oxygen gas reacts with NO gas. 29.8 L of oxygen is required at STP to produce this 20.0 g of
fiasKO [112]

The statement is false as 85675 grams of nitrogen dioxide is produced instead of 20 grams.

Explanation:

Balance equation for the reaction:

2NO + O_{2} ⇒ 2NO_{2}

Data given:

mass of nitrogen produced = 20 gram

mass of oxygen = 29.8 litres or 29800 grams

0xygen is the limiting reagent so,

number of moles of oxygen: (atomic mass of 1 mole 32 grams/mole

number of moles = \frac{mass}{atomic mass of 1  mole}

putting the values in the equation:

 =  \frac{29800}{32}

  = 931.5 moles

1 mole of oxygen reacts to give 2 moles of NO2

931.5 moles of oxygen will give x moles

\frac{2}{1}=\frac{x}{931.5}

1862.5 moles of NO2 produced

in grams

mass = number of moles x atomic mass

mass = 1862.5 x 46.00

          = 85675 grams

The statement is false as 85675 grams of nitrogen dioxide is produced instead of 20 grams as said in question.

Calculating the Molecular Weight and Subunit Organization of a Protein From Its Metal Content The element molybdenum (atomic wei
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Dimer of two peptide chains with 1 mole of molybdenum metal each.

Explanation:

Percentage of molybdenum in protein = 0.08%

Molecular mass of nitrate reductase = 240,000 g

Mass of molybdenum = x

0.08\%=\frac{x}{240,000 g}\times 100=192 g

Moles of molybdenum =\frac{192 g}{95.95 g/mol}=2.00 mol

Each peptide chain of nitrate reductase contain 1 mole of molybdenum.

This means that nitrate reductase is composed of to two peptide chains. And in each peptide there is a single mole of molybdenum metal.

Does volume alone determine whether an object will sink or float? Explain.
Bond [772]

Answer:

no.

Density (mass / volume) determines whether an object floats or sinks. If the object is less dense than the medium in which it has been submerged, it floats. if it is more dense, it sinks. Volume will definitely determine if a steel ship floats, as steel is far more dense than water.
