1 answer:
densk [106]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Five

Explanation:

Valance electrons are the outermost electrons in an atom. There are five electrons in the third layer of the phosphorus atom. So your answer is five valance electrons.

Some friends are trying to make wine in their basement. They've added yeast to a sweet grape juice mixture and have allowed the
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

The yeast respired aerobically

Explanation:

The expectation here was that the yeast was going to put the sugar in the grape juice through fermentation, which is an anaerobic process that results in alcohol as one of the products. However since no alcohol was found in this particular example, it is fair to assume that maybe there was oxygen in teh muxture and therefore the yeast respired aerobically, producing water and carbon dioxide as products.

Mixed Practice:
AveGali [126]

Given

Mass of NO - 824 g

Molar mass of NO - 30.01g/mol

No of moles of NO = Given mass/Molar mass

No of moles of NO = 824/30.01= 27.45 mole

Hence 27.5 moles of NO are formed!

How many moles of Ca(OH)2 are in 3.5kg of Ca(OH)2? Answer in units of mole
Kobotan [32]
First, you need to convert kg to g. 
So, 1 kg =1000g.
3.5 x 1000 = 3500g Ca(OH)2

We need to know the molar mass of Ca(OH)2. 
Ca= 40.08 g
O=2(15.999)
H=2(1.0079)

Add them all together and you get 74.0938 g.

Put it in the formula from mass to moles. 

# of moles = grams Ca(OH)2 x 1 mol Ca(OH)2
                                                  --------------------
                                                  molar mass Ca(OH)2

3500 g Ca(OH)2 x 1 mol Ca(OH)2
                              ---------------------
                             74.0938 g Ca(OH)2

So divide 1/74.0938 and multiply by 3500.

You will get about 47.24 moles Ca(OH)2.

Hope this helps! :)

What is the difference between viruses and bacteria? Write complete sentences?
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

While both can cause disease, viruses are not living organisms, whereas bacteria are. Viruses are only "active" within host cells which they need to reproduce, while bacteria are single-celled organisms that produce their own energy and can reproduce on their own. Bacteria serve many vital roles in nature outside of being infectious.

Explanation:

Hope this helped! :)
