Explain why CaCl2 is likely to have properties similar to those of CaBr2

Chemistry
1 answer:
qaws [65]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Because both CaCl2 and CaBr2 both contain elements (Chlorine and Bromine) from the same group (group 7)

Explanation:

Elements are placed into different groups in the periodic table. Elements in the same group are those that have the same number of valence electrons in their outermost shell and as a result will behave similar chemically i.e. will react with other elements in the same manner.

Chlorine and Bromine are two elements belonging to group 7 of the periodic table. They are called HALOGENS and they have seven valence electrons in their outermost shell. Hence, when they form a compound with Calcium, a group two element, these compounds (CaCl2 and CaBr2) will possess similar properties because they have elements that are from the same group (halogen group).

Can you please help solve and explain the steps for the calculation?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

The hydrogen ion concentration in a solution, [H+], in mol L-1, can be calculated if the pH of the solution is known.

pH is defined as the negative logarithm (to base 10) of the hydrogen ion concentration in mol L-1 pH = -log10[H+] ...

[H+] in mol L-1 can be calculated using the equation (formula): [H+] = 10-pH

Given the balanced equation representing a reaction: 2h2o(l) + 571.6 kJ -> 2h2(g) + o2(g). What occurred as a result of this
Ivan

Answer: option D) energy was absorbed and entropy increased.


Explanation:


1) Given balanced equation:


2H₂O (l) + 571.6 kJ → 2 H₂ (g) + O₂(g).


2) Being the energy placed on the side of the reactants means that the energy is used (consumed or absorbed). This is an endothermic reaction.


So, the first part is that energy was absorbed.


3) As for the entropy, it is a measure of the disorder or radomness of the system.


Since, two molecules of liquid water were transformed into three molecules of gas, i.e. more molecules and more kinetic energy, therefore the new state has a greater degree of radomness, is more disordered, and you conclude that the entropy increased.


With that, you have shown that the right option is D) energy was absorbed and increased.

Select all statements that correctly describe hemoglobin and myoglobin structure. a. Molecular oxygen binds irreversibly to the
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

c. By itself, heme is not a good oxygen carrier. It must be part of a larger protein to prevent oxidation of the iron.

e. Both hemoglobin and myoglobin contain a prosthetic group called heme, which contains a central iron ( Fe ) (Fe) atom.

f. Hemoglobin is a heterotetramer, whereas myoglobin is a monomer. The heme prosthetic group is entirely buried within myoglobin.

Explanation:

The differences between hemoglobin and myoglobin are most important at the level of quaternary structure. Hemoglobin is a tetramer composed of two each of two types of closely related subunits, alpha and beta. Myoglobin is a monomer (so it doesn't have a quaternary structure at all). Myoglobin binds oxygen more tightly than does hemoglobin. This difference in binding energy reflects the movement of oxygen from the bloodstream to the cells, from hemoglobin to myoglobin.

Myoglobin binds oxygen

The binding of O 2 to myoglobin is a simple equilibrium reaction:

• 1) The pressure of a sample of gas in a 2.00-L container is 876 mmHg.
kifflom [539]

Answer:

4380 mmHg

Explanation:

Boyle's Law can be used to explain the relationship between pressure and volume of an ideal gas. The pressure is inversely related to volume, so if volume decrease the pressure will increase. It can be expressed in the equation as:

P1V1=P2V2

In this question, the first condition is 2L volume and 876 mmHg pressure. Then the system changed into the second condition where the volume is 400ml and the pressure is unknown. The pressure will be:

P1V1= P2V2

876 mmHg * 2L = P2 * 400ml /(1000ml/L)

P2= 876 mmHg * 2L / 0.4L

P2= 4380 mmHg
