Fill in the coefficients that will balance the following reaction: a0NH4Cl + a1Ag3PO4 → a2AgCl + a3(NH4)3PO4

1 answer:

8 0

The equation of the reaction before balancing is
a0NH₄Cl + a1Ag₃PO₄ → a2AgCl + a3(NH₄)₃PO₄
PO₄³⁻ ion is balanced.
on the left side, theres 1 (NH₄⁺) ion and right side 3 (NH₄⁺) ions. Therefore if we put the coefficient for NH₄Cl, we will obtain the following equation
3 NH₄Cl + a1Ag₃PO₄ → a2AgCl + a3(NH₄)₃PO₄
3 Ag⁺ ions on the left side and 1 Ag⁺ ion on the right side, so if we put the coefficient of AgCl as 3, following equation obtained
3 NH₄Cl + a1Ag₃PO₄ → 3 AgCl + a3(NH₄)₃PO₄
Cl⁻ ions are also balanced now, 3 on either side.
a1 and a3 are 1 as those compounds are as it is, so coefficient is 1 for both

balanced equation is as follows
3 NH₄Cl + Ag₃PO₄ → 3 AgCl + (NH₄)₃PO₄
coefficients are
a0 - 3
a1 - 1
a2 - 3
a3 - 1

Mary and her siblings share similar hair color. Which of these cell components are most involved in determining the hair color o

aksik [14]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

1. Mary and her siblings share similar hair color. Which of these cell components are most involved in determining the hair color of each sibling?

Gene, Chromosome, Nucleus

Cytoplasm, Chloroplasts,Genes

Vacuoles, Nucleus, Chromosomes

Chromosomes, Chloroplasts, Vacuoles

Answer:

Gene, Chromosome, Nucleus

Explanation:

Gene is defined in biology as "a unit of heredity which is transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristic of the offspring" (Oxford Dictionary).

The gene is located in the chromosomes in the nucleus of cells. The sum total of the genes that an organism inherits from its parents is called the organisms' genotype and determines certain features of the organism.

The hair colour of Mary and each of her siblings depends on the genes they received from their parents.

How many grams of mercury would be contained in 15 compact fluorescent light bulbs?

zhenek [66]

Answer:

Grams of mercury= 0.06 g of Hg

Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:

A compact fluorescent light bulb contains 4 mg of mercury. How many grams of mercury would be contained in 15 compact fluorescent light bulbs?

Explanation:

Since one fluorescent light bulb contains 4 mg of mercury,

15 such bulbs will contain 15 * 4 mg of mercury = 60 mg

1 mg = 0.001 g

Therefore, 60 mg = 0.001 g * 60 = 0.06 g of mercury.

Compact fluorescent lightbulbs (CFLs) are tubes containing mercury and noble gases. When electricity is passed through the bulb, electron-streams flow from a tungsten-coated coil. They collide with mercury atoms, exciting their electrons and creating flashes of ultraviolet light. A phosphor coating on the inside of the tube absorbs this UV light flashes and re-emits it as visible light. The amount of mercury in a fluorescent lamp varies from 3 to 46 mg, depending on lamp size and age.

Which answer provides the correct name for name the following hydrocarbon?

natulia [17]

I think the correct answer would be the third option. The correct name for the hydrocarbon described above would be 2-heptyne. It has a chemical formula written as CH3 - CH2 - CH2 - CH2 - C ≡ C - CH3. Counting the number of carbons, we have 7 carbon atoms so we use the prefix hepta-. Since it has a triple bond then it is an alkyne. So, it would be named as heptyne. The triple bond is located on the second carbon atom so we write 2 before the name to indicate the location of the triple bond. The name of the compound would be 2-heptyne.

35.2 J of heat is

ruslelena [56]

The specific heat : c = 0.306 J/g K

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Heat = 35.2 J

Mass = 16 g

Temperature difference : 7.2 K =

Required

The specific heat

Solution

Heat can be calculated using the formula:

Q = mc∆T

Q = heat, J

m = mass, g

c = specific heat, joules / g ° C

∆T = temperature difference, ° C / K

Input the value :

c = Q / m.∆T

c = 35.2 / 16 x 7.2

c = 0.306 J/g K
