Which of the following is ranked from smallest to largest?
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

The order is: electron, carbon, water,  glucose, glycogen.    

Explanation:

The electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle and is therefore the smallest.

Carbon is a chemical element, which belongs to the group-14 of periodic table and has atomic number 6.

Water is a odorless, almost colorless and tasteless chemical compound which is necessary for all the known living form. The chemical formula is H2O and it is composed of 2 hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.

Glucose is a monosaccharide sugar and a type of simple carbohydrate. The chemical formula is C6H12O6 and is composed of 6 carbon atoms, 6 oxygen atoms and 12 hydrogen atoms.

Glycogen is a branched polysaccharide molecule, which is composed of multiple monomeric glucose units. Therefore, it is the largest.

<u>Therefore, the increasing order is: electron, carbon, water,  glucose, glycogen.</u>

Based on table N of the reference tables what is the number of hours required for 42k (potassium -42) to undergo three half-life
skelet666 [1.2K]

The number of hours required : 37.2 hours

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

⁴²K (potassium -42)

Required

The number of hours

Solution

The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.  

Usually, radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.  

Based on Table N(attached), the half-life for ⁴²K is 12.4 hours, which means half of a sample of ⁴²K will decay in 12.4 hours

For three half-life periods :

\tt 3\times 12.4=37.2~hours

a sample of compound determined to contain 1.71 g C and 0.287 g H. The corresponding empirical formula is
fiasKO [112]

Answer: The empirical formula is CH_2.

Explanation:

Mass of C = 1.71 g

Mass of H = 0.287 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C = \frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{1.71g}{12g/mole}=0.142moles

Moles of H = \frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{0.287g}{1g/mole}=0.287moles

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C =\frac{0.142}{0.142}=1

For H =\frac{0.287}{0.142}=2

The ratio of C: H = 1: 2

Hence the empirical formula is CH_2.
