Answer:

Explanation:

Reaction Given

NaHCO₃ (s) + HC₂H₃O₂ (aq) -------> CO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) + NaC₂H₃O₂ (aq)

Balance Equation = ?

Solution:

Balance Chemical Equation:

A balanced chemical equation is that in which the number of the reactant atoms equal to the number of the product atom.

For example if the carbon at the reactant side is 3, the number of carbon must be 3 on the product side.

Check the chemical equation and count the number of atoms at the reactant side and product side.

If the number of atoms of the reactants equal to the number of atoms of products then the reaction is balanced but if not equal then reaction is not balanced

Balancing is an trial and error process to get a balance reaction.

First we count the number of atoms of reactant and product

Number of atoms of Reactant:

Na = 1

O = 5

H = 5

C = 3

Number of atoms of Product:

Na = 1

O = 5

H = 5

C = 3

So this a balance equation as the atoms of the reactant atom equal to the number of the product atoms.

Na atom is 1 on both reactant and product side

Oxygen atoms are 5 on reactant and 5 on product side

hydrogen atoms are 5 on reactant and 5 on product side

Carbon atoms are 3 on reactant and 3 on product side

So all the compounds in the reaction have 1 as its coefficient in the blanks

1 NaHCO₃ (s) + 1 HC₂H₃O₂ (aq) -----> 1 CO₂ (g) + 1 H₂O (l) + 1 NaC₂H₃O₂ (aq)

When nonpolar solutes are placed in water, the hydrogen bonding network of water is disrupted, and there are fewer ways for wate

satela [25.4K]

Answer: increase in entropy

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa.

$\Delta S$ is positive when randomness increases and $\Delta S$ is negative when randomness decreases.

When the non polar solutes are placed in water, the hydrogen bonding network of water is disrupted, and there are fewer ways for water to hydrogen-bond with itself. That means the water molecules are more randomly arranged and thus have more entropy and thus $\Delta S$ is positive.

Calculate the osmotic pressure associated with 50.0 g of an enzyme of molecular weight 98 g/mol dissolved in water to give 2600

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

π = 4,882 atm

Explanation:

To calculate the osmotic pressure (π), the Van´t Hoff equation must be used, which is:

π x V = n x R x T

Where:

• π: Osmotic pressure, which is the difference between the levels of the solution and the pure solvent through a semipermeable membrane, which allows the passage of the solvent but not the solute

• V: Volume of the solution, in liters unit

• n: Number of moles of solute

• R: Constant of ideal gases, equal to 0.08206 L.atm / mol.K

• T: Absolute temperature, in Kelvin degrees

With the data you provide you can calculate the osmotic pressure by clearing it from the equation, we would be equal to:

π = (n x R x T) / V

However, all data must first be converted to the corresponding units in order to replace the values in the equation.

Solution volume ⇒ go from mL to L: 

1000 mL of solution ____ 1 L

2600 mL of solution _____ X = 2.6 L

Calculation: 2600 mL x 1 L / 1000 mL = 2.6 L

Temperature ⇒ Go from ° C to K 

T (K) = t (° C) + 273.15 = 30.0 ° C + 273.15 = 303.15 K

Number of moles of solute ⇒ It can be calculated since we have the mass of the enzyme and its molecular mass:

98.0 g of enzyme ____ 1 mol

50.0 g of enzyme _____ X = 0.510 moles

Calculation: 50.0 g x 1 mol / 98.0 g = 0.510 moles

Now, you can replace the values in the Van´t Hoff equation and you will get the result:

π = (n x R x T) / V

π = (0.510 mol x 0.08206 L.atm / mol.K x 303.15 K) / 2.6 L = 4.882 atm

Therefore, the osmotic pressure will be 4,882 atm

Which type of intermolecular attractive force operates between (part A) all molecules, (part B) polar molecules, (part C) the hy

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

PART A: The LDF occurs between all molecules. Dispersion forces result from shifting electron clouds, which cause weak, temporary dipole.

PART B: Dipole dipole operates only between polar molecules. This is when two polar molecules get near each other and the positively charged portion of the molecule is attracted to the negatively charged portion of another molecule.

PART C: Dipole dipole and in some cases hydrogen bonding operate between the hydrogen atom of a polar bond and a nearby small electronegative atom. Only if the atom bonded to it were F, O or N it would be hydrogen bonding. Otherwise it is dipole dipole.

Calculate the kinetic energy of a baseball (mass = 5.25 oz) with a velocity of 1.0 x 10^2 mi/h

pychu [463]

Answer:

262.5 Joules

Explanation:

You find the kinetic energy of multiplying half of the mass by the velocity. In this word problem it tells you the mass so you divide it by 2. That answer is 2.625, you then multiply that by the velocity, in this instance it's 1.0 x 10^2 mi/h.

The unit in kinetic energy is Joules. This is actually a really important part in chemistry and physics.
