Answer:

Cellulose is an organic compound with the formula , a polysaccharide consisting of a linear chain of several hundred to many thousands of β linked D-glucose units. Cellulose is an important structural component of the primary cell wall of green plants, many forms of algae and the oomycetes.

Answer:

Hope this helped.

Explanation:

Cellulose is a molecule, consisting of hundreds – and sometimes even thousands – of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Cellulose is the main substance in the walls of plant cells, helping plants to remain stiff and upright. Humans cannot digest cellulose, but it is important in the diet as fibre.

What volume of a 0.550 M solution of potassium hydroxide (KOH) can be made with 19.9 g of potassium hydroxide?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

0.645 L

Explanation:

To find the volume, you need to (1) convert grams to moles (using the molar mass) and then (2) calculate the volume (using the molarity ratio). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given values.

(Step 1)

Molar Mass (KOH): 39.098 g/mol + 15.998 g/mol + 1.008 g/mol

Molar Mass (KOH): 56.104 g/mol

19.9 grams KOH              1 mole
--------------------------  x  -----------------------  =  0.355 moles KOH
                                     56.014 grams

(Step 2)

Molarity = moles / volume                            <----- Molarity ratio

0.550 M = 0.355 moles / volume                 <----- Insert values

(0.550 M) x volume = 0.355 moles              <----- Multiply both sides by volume

volume = 0.645 L                                          <----- Divide both sides by 0.550

En un recipiente cerrado y rígido se introdujo una mezcla gaseosa a cierta temperatura y las presiones parciales de cada gas son
valkas [14]

Answer:

Qp > Kp, por lo tanto, la presión parcial de BrF₃(g) aumenta hasta alcanzar el equilibrio.

Explanation:

Paso 1: Escribir la ecuación balanceada

BrF₃ (g) ⇌ BrF(g) + F₂(g)      Kp(T) = 64,0

Paso 2: Calcular el cociente de reacción (Qp)

Qp = pBrF × pF₂ / pBrF₃

Qp = 1,50 × 2,00 / 0,0150 = 200

Paso 3: Sacar una conclusión

Dado que Qp > Kp, la reacción se desplazará hacia la izquierda para alcanzar el equilibrio, es decir, la presión parcial de BrF₃(g) aumenta hasta alcanzar el equilibrio.

What assumptions do we make in order to use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation? a. Both the weak acid and its conjugate base are
zepelin [54]

Answer:

The final and initial concentration of the acid and it's conjugate base are approximately equal, that is we use the weak acid approximation.

Explanation:

The Henderson-Hasselbalch is used to calculate the pH of a buffer solution. It depends on the weak acid approximation.

Since the weak acid ionizes only to a small extent, then we can say that [HA] ≈ [HA]i

Where [HA] = final concentration of the acid and [HA]i = initial concentration of the acid.

It also follows that [A^-] ≈ [A^-]i where [A^-] and[A^-]i refer to final and initial concentrations of the conjugate base hence the answer above.
