The answer is 3). This is because elements are the simplest form of a substance, and cannot be broken down any further. Compounds on the other hand are much more complex than elements and can be broken down INTO elements. For example, Na, sodium, is an element and cannot be broken down further. H2O, water, is a compound and can be broken down into Hydrogen and Oxygen.

2. Mono Lake has a salinity of 40 parts per thousand.
swat32

Hypersaline

Explanation:

Mono Lake is a land locked body of water with a salinity of about 40 parts per thousand.

A lake is natural body of water surrounded by water.

Salinity is the amount of salt concentration in water body.

  A salinity value of about 40 parts per thousand is said to be hypersaline.

This is salty water with a lot dissolved NaCl in it. it takes several years of dissolution of salt for a water body to have high salinity

Chromium(III) oxide reacts with hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas to form chromium(III) sulfide and water: Cr2O3(s) + 3H2S(g) → Cr2S3(s
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

(a) 0.779 mol Cr₂O₃

(b) 118 g Cr₂O₃

Explanation:

Step 1: Convert 156 g Cr₂S₃ to moles

Cr Molar Mass - 52.00 g/mol × 2 = 104.00 g/mol

S Molar Mass - 32.07 g/mol × 3 = 96.21 g/mol

156 g Cr₂S₃ ÷ 200.21 g/mol = 0.779182 mol Cr₂S₃

Step 2: Find conversion from Cr₂S₃ to Cr₂O₃

1 mol Cr₂S₃ equals 1 mol Cr₂O₃

Step 3: Use Dimensional Analysis

0.779182 mol Cr₂S₃ · \frac{1 \hspace{2} mol \hspace{2} Cr_2O_3}{1 \hspace{2} mol \hspace{2} Cr_2S_3} = 0.779182 mol Cr₂O₃

0.779182 mol Cr₂O₃ ≈ 0.779 mol Cr₂O₃ (3 significant figures)

Step 4: Convert moles to grams

Cr Molar Mass - 52.00 g/mol × 2 = 104.00 g/mol

O Molar Mass - 16.00 g/mol × 3 = 48.00 g/mol

0.779182 mol Cr₂O₃ · 152.00 g/mol = 118.436 g Cr₂O₃

118.436 g Cr₂O₃ ≈ 118 g Cr₂O₃ (3 significant figures)

Enzymes use several types of catalytic mechanisms. Differentiate between acid-base catalysis, covalent catalysis, and metal ion
sukhopar [10]

In catalysis and base catalysis, a chemical reaction is catalysed by an acid or a base.

Covalent catalysis involves the formation of a covalent bond.

Metal ions contribute to the catalytic process through their ability to attract or donate electrons.

<h3>What are enzymes?</h3>

An enzyme is a biological catalyst and is almost always a protein. It speeds up the rate of a specific chemical reaction in the cell.

In catalysis and base catalysis, a chemical reaction is catalysed by an acid or a base. by Bronsted - Lowry acid-base theory, the acid is the proton ( hydrogen ion, H+) donor and a base is the proton accentor typical reaction catalyzed by proton transfer are esterifications and aldol reactions .

Covalent catalysis involves the formation of a covalent bond between the enzyme and at least one of the substrates involved in the reaction. Often times this involves nucleophilic catalysis which is a subclass of covalent catalysis.

Metal ions are essential for the catalytic action of some enzymes. Metal ions contribute to the catalytic process through their ability to attract or donate electrons. Some metals bind the substrate by coordination links. Others contribute to maintaining the tertiary and quaternary structures of the enzyme molecule.
