What is the difference between a contractor and a starter

Lunna [17]

"A contactor is a electrically controlled switch which uses an electromagnetic coil to pull in the contacts.”

"A motor starter is a contactor, plus an overload relay that will drop out the coil voltage if the motor overloads. If there is not overload relay, it is not a starter any longer, it's back to being just a contactor."

List several other words that are formed using the prefix mon or mono what do these words have in common

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

1) Monochrome

2) Monocot

3) Monosaccharide

4) Monounsaturated

5) Monoxide

Explanation:

The prefix mono or mon is of Greek origin and it means single, lone or one.

From the meaning of the words we can tell that they have something in common:

1) Monochrome: This refers to an artwork, a painting or drawing that has just one color.

2) Monocot: This is a type of flowering plant that has a single embryo and a single cotyledon.

3) Monosaccharide: This is a type of simple sugar that contains one sugar unit that cannot be split.

4) Monounsaturated: This refers to a molecule that contains one double or triple bond.

5) Monoxide: This refers to a form of oxide that contains only one oxygen atom.

From the definitions above, all the words mean having only one or a single item.

That is what they have in common.

Which of the following reactions could be an elementary reaction? 2 NO2(g) + F2(g) → 2NO2F(g) Rate = k[NO2][F2] H2(g) + Br2(g) →

podryga [215]

Answer: The correct answer is $NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g)+O(g);Rate=k[NO][O_2]$

Explanation:

Molecularity of the reaction is defined as the number of atoms, ions or molecules that must colloid with one another simultaneously so as to result into a chemical reaction.

Order of the reaction is defined as the sum of the concentration of terms on which the rate of the reaction actually depends. It is the sum of the exponents of the molar concentration in the rate law expression.

Elementary reactions are defined as the reactions for which the order of the reaction is same as its molecularity and order with respect to each reactant is equal to its stoichiometric coefficient as represented in the balanced chemical reaction.

For the given reactions:

Equation 1: $2NO_2(g)+F_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2F(g);Rate=k[NO_2][F_2]$

Molecularity of the reaction = 2 + 1 = 3

Order of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

This is not considered as an elementary reaction.

Equation 2: $H_2(g)+Br_2(g)\rightarrow 2HBr(g);Rate=k[H_2][Br_2]^{1/2}$

Molecularity of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

Order of the reaction = $1+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$

This is not considered as an elementary reaction.

Equation 3: $NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g)+O(g);Rate=k[NO][O_2]$

Molecularity of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

Order of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

This is considered as an elementary reaction.

Equation 4: $NO_2(g)+CO(g)\rightarrow NO(g)+CO_2(g);Rate=k[NO_2]^2$

Molecularity of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

Order of the reaction = 2 + 0 = 2

In this equation, the order with respect to each reactant is not equal to its stoichiometric coefficient which is represented in the balanced chemical reaction. Hence, this is not considered as an elementary reaction.

Hence, the correct answer is $NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g)+O(g);Rate=k[NO][O_2]$

An order calls for Hytone 1% cream, Lotrimin 1% cream, aa q.s. How many grams of Lotrimin cream would be needed to make a total

Ainat [17]

The words aa q.s. is an abbreviation which is used in pharmacy. This is usually written by prescribers and then translated by pharmacists. The aa is derived from Latin which means “of each” while q.s. is also derived from Latin which means “a sufficient quantity”. This simply means that there is equal amount of Hytone 1% cream and Lotrimin 1% cream in the total cream formulation.

Since we are to make a total of 60 g of cream, therefore 50% of it would be Lotrimin cream.

Amount of Lotrimin cream needed = 0.5 (60 g)

Amount of Lotrimin cream needed = 30 grams
