If a dog has a mass of 16.1 kg, what is its mass in the following units? Use scientific notation in all of your answers.
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

16.1\times 10^3\ \text{g}

16.1\times 10^{6}\ \text{mg}

16.1\times 10^{9}\ \mu\text{g}

Explanation:

Mass of dog = 16.1\ \text{kg}

1\ \text{kg}=10^{3}\ \text{g}

1\ \text{kg}=10^{6}\ \text{mg}

1\ \text{kg}=10^{9}\ \mu\text{g}

So,

16.1\ \text{kg}=16.1\times 10^3\ \text{g}

16.1\ \text{kg}=16.1\times 10^{6}\ \text{mg}

16.1\ \text{kg}=16.1\times 10^{9}\ \mu\text{g}

Mass of the dog in the other units is 16.1\times 10^3\ \text{g}, 16.1\times 10^{6}\ \text{mg} and 16.1\times 10^{9}\ \mu\text{g}.

Write a balanced half-reaction describing the reduction of aqueous vanadium(V) cations to aqueous vanadium(I) cations.
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Explanation:

Reduction is a chemical reaction in which electrons are gained by one of the atoms taking part in the reaction and lowering of an oxidation state of that atom.

Reduction takes place at the cathode.

In aqueous, vanadium(V) is present in +5 oxidation state which on reduction changes to vanadium(I) with +1 oxidation state.

The half reaction is :

V^{5+}(aq)+4e^- \rightarrow V^{1+}(aq)

Balance the following chemical equations:
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Explanation

=============

One

=============

Ca(OH)2 + 2HNO3 -----> Ca(NO3)2 + H2O

Focus on the NO3. This is an odd problem and you usually do not focus on the complex ion. But this one works easiest if you do.

The problem now is going to be the oxygens. There are 2 with the Calcium and only 1 free one going to the water. (The NO3 has been taken care of in the last step).

Ca(OH)2 + 2HNO3 -----> Ca(NO3)2 + 2H2O

Count the atoms. I think this equation is balanced.

atom                      Left              Right         Result

Ca                            1                    1               Balanced

O                              8                   8              Balanced

H                              2 + 2              2*2         Balanced

N                               2                    2            Balanced

===========

Two

===========

CH4 + O2====>  CO2 + H2O

Start with the hydrogens.

The right side requires a 2

CH4 + O2 ===>  CO2 + 2H2O

Now look at the oxygens. There are 4 on the right. and only 2 on the left. You need to multiply O2 by 2

CH4 + 2O2 ===>  CO2 + 2H2O

Each side has 1 Carbon 4 hydrogens and 4 oxygens. The equation is balanced.
