Answer:

200 ppm

Explanation:

Sodium nitrate is used as a preservative in hotdog to preserve the colour of meat. 200 ppm of sodium nitrate (NaNO3) can be used in a hot dog. A human body can accept 3.7 mg of Sodium nitrate as per kg weight of body. So, excessive use of sodium nitrate in hot dog can harm the human body and produce diseases.

What is the maximum amount in moles of P2O5P2O5 that can theoretically be made from 112 gg of O2O2 and excess phosphorus

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

$n_{P_2O_5}^{max}=1.4molP_2O_5$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the reaction between phosphorous and oxygen to form diphosphorous pentoxide is:

$2P+\frac{5}{2}O_2\rightarrow P_2O_5$

Thus, since phosphorous is in excess and oxygen and diphosphorous pentoxide are in a 5/2:1 mole ratio, we can compute the maximum moles of product as shown below:

$n_{P_2O_5}^{max}=112 gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32.00gO_2}*\frac{1molP_2O_5}{5/2molO_2}\\\\ n_{P_2O_5}^{max}=1.4molP_2O_5$

Best regards!

Now that Snape and Dumbledore has taught you the finer points of hydration calculations they have a slightly more challenging pr

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The value of an integer x in the hydrate is 10.

Explanation:

$Molarity=\frac{Moles}{Volume(L)}$

Molarity of the solution = 0.0366 M

Volume of the solution = 5.00 L

Moles of hydrated sodium carbonate = n

$0.0366 M=\frac{n}{5.00 L}$

$n=0.0366 M\times 5 mol=0.183 mol$

Mass of hydrated sodium carbonate = n= 52.2 g

Molar mass of hydrated sodium carbonate = 106 g/mol+x18 g/mol

$n=\frac{\text{mass of Compound}}{\text{molar mass of compound}}$

$0.183 mol=\frac{52.2 g}{106 g/mol+x\times 18 g/mol}$

$106 g/mol+x\times 18 g/mol=\frac{52.2 g}{0.183 mol}$

Solving for x, we get:

x = 9.95 ≈ 10

The value of an integer x in the hydrate is 10.

Why does nuclear charge increase as you go left to right across a period

MariettaO [177]

The atomic number increases moving left to right across a period and subsequently so does the effective nuclear charge. Therefore, moving left to right across a period the nucleus has a greater pull on the outer electrons and the atomic radii decreases.
