The nitrite ion has one less oxygen than the nitrate ion. Nitrate is NO3-1 while the nitrite ion is NO2-.

Answer:

nitrite ion is NO2- and nitrate ion is NO3-

Explanation:

The nitrite ion has two oxygen atoms and one nitrogen atom while nitrate ion has three oxygen atoms and one nitrogen atom. They are both univalent negative anions that form compounds with metallic cations as shown below;

Na+ + NO3- ⇒ NaNO3 (sodium nitrate)

Na+ + NO2- ⇒ NaNO2 (sodium nitrite)

Ca2+ + NO3- ⇒ Ca(NO3)2 (calcium nitrate)

Ca2+ + NO2- ⇒ Ca(NO2)2 (calcium nitrite)

You can deduce from the above ionic equations that nitrate ion is NO3- while nitrite ion is NO2-.

Why ph changes disrupt protein's ionic bonds?
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

A change in pH in the protein habitat can modify its ionic bonds because because the chemical equilibrium shifts to one side or the other depends on the modification

Explanation:

The pH influences the charge acquired by the acidic and basic groups present in the molecules. Proteins usually have groups with characteristics of acid or weak base. Therefore, they are partially ionized in solution coexisting in equilibrium different species.

The degree of ionization of the different functional groups is in relation to the pH of the medium in which they are found, since the H3O + and OH- species are part of the equilibrium situation. Therefore, according to the pH, each group with characteristics of weak acid or base present in the molecule will be ionized to a lesser or greater extent. There are extreme situations where the balance has been totally displaced in one direction, for example: under very high pH conditions (low concentration of H3O +) weak acids are considered fully ionized, so the functional group will always have an electric charge. The same goes for the bases at very low pH values. In other equilibrium situations, species of the same molecule with different load will coexist in the solution, due to the pH value of the medium in which it is found.

This is my chemistry worksheet. It's a new topic my teacher will barely review with us. Help please???
TEA [102]
So to balance an equation, you need to get the same amount of each type of element on either side of the --> . So you pretty much are given the subscripts in the equations and you need to add coefficients (just normal numbers) in front of any formula that needs it, keeping anything balance.
KCl_{3}  + O_{2}  -\ \textgreater \  KCl_{3}
turns into
2KCl_{3}+ 3O_{2} -> 2KCl_{3}

These coefficient numbers are the molar ratios, so 2 moles of KCl3 for every 3 moles of O2   so 1. 3:2

Then you can use these ratios of find out how many moles of one thing are needed if you are given the amount of another.
\frac{moles of element 1}{cofficient 1}  =  \frac{moles of element 2}{cofficient 2}
and use cross multiplication to solve for whatever you don't know
