Answer:
Zinc oxide is the antimicrobial in the medicated foot powder.
Explanation:
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is used to treat several skin conditions such as acne, dermatitis, eczema, etc because it has antibacterial and antifungal properties. This property of the ZnO depends on its size i.e., the smaller the size of ZnO, the stronger antimicrobial activity it has. So, the ZnO nanoparticles are more efficient.
The zinc oxide interacts with the sulfur atoms in microbial proteins and denatures them and destroys their function. This action completely inhibits microbial growth. The treatment with zinc oxide causes the reduced production of conidia in fungi, damages their hyphae and inhibits their ability to produce mycotoxins.
The compounds containing zinc such as ZnSO4, Zn(ClO4)2, etc also have antifungal and antimycotoxin properties that can cause changes in the fungi cell structure. Also, the free radicals formed on the surface of the ZnO nanoparticles can cause damage to the lipids in the bacterial cell membranes that can lead to the leakage and breakdown of the bacterial cell membranes.
Answer:
[Ni(CN)4]2- square planar
[NiCl4]2- tetrahedral
Explanation:
For a four coordinate complex such as [Ni(CN)4]2- and [NiCl4]2-, we can decide its geometry by closely considering its magnetic properties. Both of the complexes are d8 complexes which could be found either in the tetrahedral or square planar crystal field depending on the nature of the ligand.
CN^- being a strong field ligand leads to the formation of a square planar diamagnetic d8 complex of Ni^2+. Similarly, Cl^- being a weak field ligand leads to the formation a a tetrahedral paramagnetic d8 complex of Ni^+ hence the answer given above.
Answer:
the answer is Compounds
Explanation:
Compounds are pure substances formed by the combination of elements; they can be decomposed by ordinary chemical means.
Stoichiometry time! Remember to look at the equation for your molar ratios in other problems.
31.75 g Cu | 1 mol Cu | 2 mol Ag | 107.9 g Ag 6851.65
⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻ → ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻ = 107.9 g Ag
∅ | 63.5 g Cu | 1 mol Cu | 1 mol Ag 63.5
There's also a shorter way to do this: Notice the molar ratio from Cu to Ag, which is 1:2. When you plug in 31.75 into your molar mass for Cu, it equals 1/2 mol. That also means that you have 1 mol Ag because of the ratio, qhich you can then plug into your molar mass, getting 107.9 as well.
Difference between Gas and Vapour:
Gas:
A thermodynamic state in which a substance exists only in one phase i.e. Gas phase. In above given examples N₂, He and CO₂ exists as gases at room temperature. These gases cannot form a solid or liquid phase along with gas phase as these states requires very low temperatures.
Vapours:
It is a thermodyanamic state in which a substance exists in more than one phase. In given options Sulfur can exist in vapor state. This is because sulfur exists in a cyclic or chain form due to catenation (self linkage property). Therefore, a lower members of S allotrops can form a vapours.
