Citrus2011 [14]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

 The Ce metal has electronic configuration as follows

[Xe] 4f¹5d¹6s²

After losing 4 electrons , it gains noble gas configuration ,. So Ce ⁺⁴ is stable.

Eu  has electronic configuration as follows

[ Xe ] 4 f ⁷6s²

[ Xe ] 4 f ⁷

Its outermost orbit contains 2 electrons so  Eu²⁺ is stable. Its +3 oxidation state is also stable.

Ce⁺²

Care needs to be taken when adding acid to base because
nikitadnepr [17]
<span>Mixing an acid and a base results in neutralization, but the results are potentially dangerous. No matter which acid or base is used, the resulting solution is water and varying types of salt. The process of neutralization often involves the substances heating up when they come together. If the solution heats up too much or too fast, a violent explosion or the creation of harmful or flammable gases is a possibility. This occurs when the chemicals are mixed too quickly, the acid and base are too strong or if there is no available salt to be made in the solution.</span>

Physical Properties: Sodium bicarbonate is an odorless, white crystalline solid or fine powder. It has a slightly alkaline taste. Its density is 2.20 g mL-1 and it decomposes in temperatures above 50 ºC. The decomposition yields to sodium carbonate. It is highly soluble in water and poorly soluble in acetone and methanol. It is insoluble in ethanol.

Chemical Properties: Sodium bicarbonate is an amphoteric compounds, it means the compound has a character acids an basic at the same time.  It is highly soluble in water, resulting in a slighty alkaline solution.

Mannoheptulose is a sugar found in avocados. If each C-C bond contains 76 kcal of energy and each C-H bond contains 91 kcal, how
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Total Kcal energy produced in the catabolism of mannoheptulose = 1184 Kcal

Explanation:

The molecular formula of mannoheptulose is C₇H₁₄O₇.

The structure is as shown in the attachment below.

Number of C-C bonds present in mannoheptulose = 6

Number of C-H bonds present in mannoheptulose = 8

Since the each C-C bond contains 76 Kcal of energy,

Amount of energy present in six C-C bonds = 6 * 76 = 456 Kcal

Also, since each C-H bond contains 91 Kcal of energy;

amount of energy present in eight C-H bonds = 8 * 91 = 728 Kcal

Total Kcal energy produced in the catabolism of mannoheptulose = 456 + 728 = 1184 Kcal
