Answer:

A, B, C

Explanation:

Notice that this reaction involves double arrows, meaning this represents an equilibrium reaction in which we observe a forward reaction (combination of hemoglobin and oxygen) and a reverse reaction (decomposition of the oxyhemoglobin complex).

Upon inhalation of oxygen, it accesses the blood of a person and binds to hemoglobin, so the following reaction proceeds to the right.

Similarly, the opposite process takes place in muscles, oxyhemoglobin is decomposed back into hemoglobin and oxygen.

The equilibrium constant reaction is relatively high, since at standard conditions, this is a spontaneous reaction, hemoglobin combines with oxygen without any additional external source of energy.

If you react 2.00 g of hydrogen completely using 15.87 g of oxygen to produce water, how much water (in grams) will you have?

leonid [27]

Answer:

The amount (mass) of water we will have is 17.869 grams

Explanation:

The molar mass of hydrogen gas H₂ = 2.016 grams/mole

The molar mass of oxygen gas = 31.999 g/mol

Therefore, 2.00 g of hydrogen will give;

2.00/2.016 = 0.9921 moles of H₂ gas and

15.87 g of O₂ will give;

15.87/31.999 = 0.49595 moles

The reaction is as follows;

2H₂ (g) + O₂ (g) → 2H₂O (l)

Two moles of H₂ react with one mole of O₂ to produce two moles of H₂O

Therefore 0.9921 moles of H₂ will react with 0.9921/2 or 0.49595 moles of O₂ to produce 0.9921 moles of H₂O

From the above we note that all the H₂ and O₂ are completely consumed to form 0.9921 moles of H₂O

Molar mass of H₂O = 18.01528 g/mol

Number of moles = Mass/(Molar mass)

∴ Mass of H₂O = (Molar mass) × (Number of moles)

= 18.01528 g/mol × 0.9921 moles = 17.869 grams

Therefore the amount (mass) of water we will have = 17.869 grams.

Copper is an example of a(n)

expeople1 [14]

copper is not a stone, copper is not a consumption resource, and copper is not renewable, that means that :

d. nonrenewable resource

Explanation:

A nonrenewable source is a source of economic value that cannot be immediately displaced by natural means on a level equal to its destruction. Most fossil fuels, such as oil, natural gas, and coal are estimated nonrenewable resources in that their use is not sustainable because their production takes billions of years.
