Condensation is the change of water from its gaseous form (water vapor) into liquid water. Condensation generally occurs in the atmosphere when warm air rises, cools and looses its capacity to hold water vapor. As a result, excess water vapor condenses to form cloud droplets.

150 mL of 0.25 mol/L magnesium chloride solution and 150 mL of 0.35 mol/L silver nitrate solution are mixed together. After reac

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

$0.175\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}$ .

Explanation:

Magnesium chloride and silver nitrate reacts at a $2:1$ ratio:

$\rm MgCl_2\, (aq) + 2\, AgNO_3\, (aq) \to Mg(NO_3)_2 \, (aq) + 2\, AgCl\, (s)$ .

In reality, the nitrate ion from silver nitrate did not take part in this reaction at all. Consider the ionic equation for this very reaction:

$\begin{aligned}& \rm Mg^{2+} + 2\, Cl^{-} + 2\, Ag^{+} + 2\, {NO_3}^{-} \\&\to \rm Mg^{2+} + 2\, {NO_3}^{-} + 2\, AgCl\, (s)\end{aligned}$ .

The precipitate silver chloride $\rm AgCl$ is insoluble in water and barely ionizes. Hence, $\rm AgCl\!$ isn't rewritten as ions.

Net ionic equation:

$\begin{aligned}& \rm Ag^{+} + Cl^{-} \to AgCl\, (s)\end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the initial quantity of nitrate ions in the mixture.

$\begin{aligned}n(\text{initial}) &= c(\text{initial}) \cdot V(\text{initial}) \\ &= 0.25\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1} \times 0.150\; \rm L \\ &= 0.0375\; \rm mol \end{aligned}$ .

Since nitrate ions $\rm {NO_3}^{-}$ do not take part in any reaction in this mixture, the quantity of this ion would stay the same.

$n(\text{final}) = n(\text{initial}) = 0.0375\; \rm mol$ .

However, the volume of the new solution is twice that of the original nitrate solution. Hence, the concentration of nitrate ions in the new solution would be $(1/2)$ of the concentration in the original solution.

$\begin{aligned} c(\text{final}) &= \frac{n(\text{final})}{V(\text{final})} \\ &= \frac{0.0375\; \rm mol}{0.300\; \rm L} = 0.175\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

A solution is prepared by dissolving 20.1 g of MgCl2 with the addition of 157.0 mL of water (density of water is 1.00g/cm3). The

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

1.3 M.

Explanation:

We need to calculate the mass of the solution:

mass of the solution = mass of MgCl₂ + mass of water

mass of MgCl₂ = 20.1 g.

mass of water = d.V = (157.0 mL)(1.0 g/cm³) = 157.0 g.

∴ mass of the solution = mass of MgCl₂ + mass of water = 20.1 g + 157.0 g = 177.1 g.

Now, we can get the volume of the solution:

V of the solution = (mass of the solution)/(density of the solution) = (177.1 g)/(1.089 g/cm³) = 162.62 mL = 0.163 L.

Molarity is the no. of moles of solute dissolved in a 1.0 L of the solution.

M = (no. of moles of MgCl₂) / (Volume of the solution (L)).

∴ M = (mass/molar mass)of MgCl₂ / (Volume of the solution (L)) = (20.1 g/95.211 g/mol) / (0.163 L) = 1.29 M ≅ 1.3 M.

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

e. UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase catalyzes the reaction of glucose-I-phosphate and UTP to UDP-glucose and PPi

a. Pyrophosphatase converts PPi and water into two Pi

b. Glycogen synthase adds a glucose unit from UDP-glucose to glycogen, producing a larger glycogen molecule and UDP

Explanation:

Glycogen synthesis or glycogenesis is the process of synthesis of glycogen molecules from glucose molecules in living organisms. Glycogen is a polysaccharide storage form of glucose and helps to store excess glucose in the body form use when required by the body.

The synthesis of glycogen involves sugar nucleotides. Sugar nucleotides are compounds in which a sugar molecule is attached to a nucleotide through phosphate ester bond, resulting in the activation of the sugar molecule. The sugar nucleotides then are used as substrates for the polymerization of the monosaccharide sugars into disaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides.

In the synthesis of glycogen, glucose-6-phosphate from phosphorylation of free glucose by hexokinase is first isomerized to glucose-1-phosphate by phosphoglucomutase.

Glucose-1-phosphate is then converted to UDP-glucose by its reaction with UTP catalyse by UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase. The reaction is favoured by the rapid hydrolysis of PPi produced to two molecules of inorganic phosphate by the enzyme pyrophosphatase.

Glycogen synthase then adds a glucose unit from UDP-glucose to a growing chain of glycogen, producing a larger glycogen molecule and free UDP.
