What compound was formed by the reaction of the first oxygen released by cyanobacteria and iron?

1 answer:

7 0

The compound that was formed by the reaction of the first oxygen released by Cyanobacteria and iron are the metals of the earths crust. Cyanobacteria was the first organisms that used water instead of hydrogen sulfide or other compounds as a source of electrons and hydrogen for fixing carbon dioxide. Early Cyanobacteria inhabited marine sediments where Archean banded iron formations were deposited; consisting of reddish layers rich in iron oxide.

In a 0.20 M solution, a weak acid is 3.0% dissociated.(a) Calculate the [H₃O⁺] , pH , [OH⁻], and pOH of the solution.

marin [14]

H₃O⁺ = $6.0$ × $10^{-3}$

OH = $1.7$ × $10^{-12}$

pH = 2.22

pOH = 11.78

The term pH, which originally stood for "potential of hydrogen" (or "power of hydrogen"), is used in chemistry to describe how acidic or basic an aqueous solution is. Lower pH values are summarized for acidic solutions (solutions with higher H+ ion concentrations) than for basic or alkaline solutions.

The pH scale is inversely indicates to the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution and is logarithmic.

⇒pH = -log( $a_{H+}$ )

Acidic solutions are those with a pH below 7, and basic solutions are those with a pH above 7, at a temperature of 25 °C (77 °F). At this temperature, solutions with a pH of 7 are neutral (e.g. pure water). The pH neutrality relies on temperature, falling below 7 if the temperature rises above 25 °C.

Can anyone please help me find molar masses of compounds. For example Copper (ll) sulfate (CuSO4)

Alina [70]

Answer:

Explanation:

You would have to add up the atomic masses of all the compounds in the compound, making sure you include how many molecules of each are in the compound

For example, in CuSOA we have 1 molecule of Cu and S, as 4 molecules of O

The atomic masses are as follows:

Cu = 63.55 u

S = 32.065 u

O = 15.99 units

This is how we would add it up:

(Atomic mass of Cu) + (Atomic mass of S) + 4(Atomic Mass of O)

(63.55) + (32.065) + 4(15.99)

(63.55) + (32.065) + 63.96

= 159.575 u
