Answer:

324.18 g/mol

Explanation:

Let the molecular mass of the antimalarial drug, Quinine is x g/mol

According to question,

Nitrogen present in the drug is 8.63% of x

So, mass of nitrogen = \frac {8.63}{100}\times x

Also, according to the question,

2 atoms are present in 1 molecule of the drug.

Mass of nitrogen = 14.01 amu = 14.01 g/mol (grams for 1 mole)

So, mass of nitrogen = 14.01×2 = 28.02

These 2 must be equal so,

\frac {8.63}{100}\times x=28.02

solving for x, we get:

<u>x = 324.18 g/mol</u>

A sample of gas originally at 25 C and 1.00 atm pressure in a 2.5 L container is allowed to expand until the pressure is 0.85 at
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Final volumeof the gas = 2.84 L

Explanation:

The formular to be used here is the general gas equation. the formular is being used because it gives the relationship between the three gas parameters (volume, temperature and pressure) mentioned.

The general gas equation is given as;

\frac{P1V1}{T1} = \frac{P2V2}{T2}

where;

P1 = initial pressure

V1 = initial volume

T1 = initial temperature

P2 = Final pressure

V2 = Final volume

T2 = Final temperature

From the question,

P1 = 1.00 atm

P2 = 0.85atm

T1 = 25C + 273 = 298K (Converting to kelvin)

T2 = 15C + 273 = 288K (Converting to kelvin)

V1 = 2.5L

V2 = ?

from the equation, making V2 subject of formula we have;

V2 = \frac{T2P1V1}{T1P2}

V2 = (1*2.5*288)/(298*0.85) = 2.84 L.

Why is the cell theory so important??
Kamila [148]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

The cell theory states that all biological organisms are composed of cells; cells are the unit of life and all life come from preexisting life. The cell theory is so established today that it forms one of the unifying principles of biology.
