Lead has a different chemistry than most biological metals, but it can mimic some of them, such as calcium, iron, and zinc, because it tends to form 2+ ion like other metals, and these can be formed inside the body. Due to it different chemistry, lead prevents normal functioning of the enzymes it binds to, inhibiting them and poisoning the body.


Gold rarely forms ions, unless under extreme conditions that are not present in the human body. Gold ions, when ingested, are actually very toxic, so gold poisoning is possible. But because gold are so rare, gold poisoning is also a rare phenomenon.

What is the molarity of a 27.0% (v/v) aqueous ethanol solution? the density of ethanol (c2h6o, molar mass 46.07 g/mol) is 0.790
RoseWind [281]
   The  molarity  of a  27%(v/v) aqueous  ethanol  solution  is 4.63 M

         calculation
convert  27%(v/v) to  fraction  = 27ml/100 ml

use  density to  convert  27ml  to grams =  27 ml  x0.79 g/ml = 21.33 g

find  the number  of moles  of C2H6O

moles = mass/molar mass of C2H6O(46.07 g/mol)

moles is therefore = 21.33 g /46.07 g/mol =0.463  moles

find the  molarity =   moles /volume in liters

volume in liter =  100 ml/1000 = 0.1 L

molarity  is therefore =  0.463 mole/0.1 L = 4.63  M

Given an ion with a charge of +4, how many ions with a charge of -2 will be necessary to create a stable compound? Explain.
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 2 \ ions}}

Explanation:

A stable compound has a net charge of 0. Basically, when added, the two ion charges must equal 0 and balance each other out.

We have one ion with a charge of +4. There is another ion of -2. Clearly, these are not balanced yet.

We need more -2 ions to balance it. If we have 2 ions, then their charge is -4 because:

  • 2 * -2 charge = -4 charge

The +4 ion and 2 -2 ions (with a charge of -4) balance each other out and create a net charge of 0. So, <u>2 ions with a charge of -2</u> are necessary to create a stable compound.

A student performed a serial dilution on a stock solution of 1.33 M NaOH. A 1.0 mL aliquot of the stock NaOH (ms) was added to 9
serg [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 1.33 x 10⁻⁵ M

Explanation:

The concentration of the stock solution is: C= 1.33 M

In the first dilution, the student added 1 ml of stock solution to 9 ml of water. The total volume of the solution is 1 ml + 9 ml = 10 ml. So, the first diluted concentration is:

C₁= 1.33 M x 1 ml/10 ml = 1.33 M x 1/10 = 0.133 M

The second dilution is performed on C₁. The student added 1 ml of 0.133 M solution to 9 ml of water. Again, the total volume is 1 ml + 9 ml = 10 ml. The second diluted concentration is:

C₂= 0.133 M x 1 ml/10 ml = 0.133 M x 1/10= 0.0133 M

Since the student repeated the same dilution process 3 times more (for a total of 5 times), we have to multiply 5 times the initial concentration by the factor 1/10:

Final concentration = initial concentration x 1/10 x 1/10 x 1/10 x 1/10 x 1/10

                                = initial concentration x (1/10)⁵

                                = 1.33 M x 1 x 10⁻⁵

                                = 1.33 x 10⁻⁵ M
