Answer:

Quartenary.

Explanation:

Quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) are cationic salts of organically substituted ammonium compounds and have a broad range of activity against microorganisms, i.e more effective against Gram-positive bacterium at lower concentrations than Gram-negative bacteria.

It was also reported previously that monoalkyl QACs bind by ionic and hydrophobic interactions to microbial membrane surfaces, with the cationic head group facing outwards and the hydrophobic tails inserted into the lipid bilayer, causing the rearrangement of the membrane and the subsequent leakage of intracellular constituents.

Why do solids not diffuse​
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

This is because of diffusion , the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. ... This means that diffusion does not happen in solids – the particles in a solid can only vibrate and cannot move from place to place.

If 0.200 moles of AgNO₃ react with 0.155 moles of H₂SO₄ according to this UNBALANCED equation below, what is the mass in grams o
morpeh [17]

Answer:

31.2 g of Ag₂SO₄

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

2AgNO₃(aq) + H₂SO₄ (aq) → Ag₂SO₄ (s) + 2HNO₃ (aq)

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of AgNO₃ reacted with 1 mole of H₂SO₄ to produce 1 mole of Ag₂SO₄ and 2 moles of HNO₃.

Next, we shall determine the limiting reactant.

This can obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of AgNO₃ reacted with 1 mole of H₂SO₄.

Therefore, 0.2 moles of AgNO₃ will react with = (0.2 x 1)/2 = 0.1 mole of H₂SO₄.

From the calculations made above, only 0.1 mole out of 0.155 mole of H₂SO₄ given is needed to react completely with 0.2 mole of AgNO₃. Therefore, AgNO₃ is the limiting reactant.

Next,, we shall determine the number of mole of Ag₂SO₄ produced from the reaction.

In this case we shall use the limiting reactant because it will give the maximum yield of Ag₂SO₄ as all of it is consumed in the reaction.

The limiting reactant is AgNO₃ and the number of mole of Ag₂SO₄ produced can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of AgNO₃ reacted to produce 1 mole of Ag₂SO₄.

Therefore, 0.2 moles of AgNO₃ will react to produce = (0.2 x 1)/2 = 0.1 mole of Ag₂SO₄.

Therefore, 0.1 mole of Ag₂SO₄ is produced from the reaction.

Finally, we shall convert 0.1 mole of Ag₂SO₄ to grams.

This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of Ag₂SO₄ = (2x108) + 32 + (16x4) = 312 g/mol

Mole of Ag₂SO₄ = 0.1

Mass of Ag₂SO₄ =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

0.1 = Mass of Ag₂SO₄ /312

Cross multiply

Mass of Ag₂SO₄ = 0.1 x 312

Mass of Ag₂SO₄ = 31.2 g

Therefore, 31.2 g of Ag₂SO₄ were obtained from the reaction.
