Starch and Glycogen, both are made of glucose, they are infact polymers of glucose. Starch is stored in plants as food reserve. Starch is present in two forms- Amylose- which is linear chain of glucose and Amylopectin is a branched chain polymer of glucose. Glycogen is found in animals and is stored in liver.

During an experiment, 95 grams of calcium carbonate reacted with an excess amount of hydrochloric acid. If the percent yield of
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Actual yield: 86.5 grams.

Explanation:

How many moles of formula units in 95 grams of calcium carbonate \rm CaCO_3?

Refer to a modern periodic table for relative atomic mass data:

  • Ca: 40.078;
  • C: 12.011;
  • O: 15.999.

Formula mass of \rm CaCO_3:

M(\mathrm{CaCO_3})  = \underbrace{1\times 40.078}_{\rm Ca} + \underbrace{1\times 12.011}_{\rm C} + \underbrace{3\times 15.999}_{\rm O} = \rm 100.086\;g\cdot mol^{-1}.

\displaystyle n(\mathrm{CaCO_3}) = \frac{m(\mathrm{CaCO_3})}{M(\mathrm{CaCO_3})} = \rm \frac{95\;g}{100.086\;g\cdot mol^{-1}} = 0.949184\;mol.

How many moles of \rm CaCl_2 will be produced?

The coefficient in front of \rm CaCO_3 in the chemical equation is the same as that in front of \rm CaCl_2. That is:

\displaystyle \frac{n(\rm CaCl_2)}{n(\rm CaCO_3)} = 1.

\displaystyle n(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) = n(\mathrm{CaCO_3})\cdot \frac{n(\rm CaCl_2)}{n(\rm CaCO_3)} = n(\mathrm{CaCO_3}) = \rm 0.949184\;mol.

What's the theoretical yield of calcium chloride? In other words, what's the mass of \rm 0.949184\;mol of \rm CaCl_2?

Again, refer to a periodic table for relative atomic data:

  • Ca: 40.078;
  • Cl: 35.45.

M(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) = \underbrace{1\times 40.078}_{\rm Ca} + \underbrace{2\times 35.45}_{\rm Cl} = \rm 110.978\;g\cdot mol^{-1}.

\begin{aligned}m(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) &= n(\mathrm{CaCl_2})\cdot M(\mathrm{CaCl_2})\\ &= \rm 0.949184\;mol\times 110.978\;g\cdot mol^{-1}\\ &= \rm 105.339\; g\end{aligned}.

What's the actual yield of calcium chloride?

\displaystyle \text{Percentage Yield} = \frac{\text{Actual Yield}}{\text{Theoretical Yield}}\times 100\%.

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\text{Actual Yield} &= \text{Theoretical Yield}\cdot \frac{\text{Percentage Yield}}{100\%}\\ &=\rm 105.339\; g \times \frac{82.15\%}{100\%}\\&= \rm 86.5\;g \end{aligned}.

Evaluate the Lewis structures below and pick the statements that best describes the accuracy of each of the structures. There ma
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The structures shown by dots and lines to give the exact number of electrons in the outer most shell is explained by Lewis Structures.

Explanation:

Lewis structures are those structures in which the diagram is shown using the electron representation. They are easy to understand as the diagram completely depicts where the electrons are shared and where they are transferred. The diagram also explains where there is a single bond and where there is a di covalent bond or tri covalent bond explaining where the single , double or triple electron pair is shared. The electrons are shown by dots or lines.

For example CCl₄ can be shown as follows

                  ..

               .. Cl..

  ..                               ..

..Cl..----------C----------..Cl..

                   ..

                .. Cl..

The picture shows that each chlorine has six electrons in its outer shell and then a pair of electron is shared with carbon forming a single covalent bond.

Similarly methane CH4 can also be shown.

The hydrogen has one electron and it shares an electron from carbon stabilising itself forming methane.

2.5 moles of sodium chloride is dissolved to make 0.050 liters of solution
Hitman42 [59]

The answer is:

the molarity = 50 moles/liters

The explanation:

when the molarity is = the number of moles / volume per liters.

and when the number of moles =2.5 moles

and the volume per liters = 0.05 L

so by substitution:

the molarity = 2.5moles/0.05L

                    = 50 moles /L

For a different reaction, the plot of the reciprocal of concentration versus time in seconds was linear with a slope of 0.056 M-
Bond [772]

Answer:

C_t=0.165M

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Slope K=0.056 M-1 s -1

initial Concentration C_1=2.2M

Time t=100

Generally the equation for Raw law is mathematically given by

\frac{1}{C}_t=kt+\frac{1}{C}_0

\frac{1}{C}_t=0.056*100+\frac{1}{2.2}_0

C_t=0.165M

1. write the complete chemical symbol for the ion with 14 protons 15 neutrons and 18 electrons
motikmotik

Answer:

1.   Si^{-4}

2.  Co^{+2}

Explanation:

An ion is formed when an atom that is said to be neutral gains or losses electrons.

It is thought that a negative ion (anion) is produced as it gains electrons and a positive ion (cation) is formed when it loses an electron.

Atomic number is the total number of protons and electrons in a neutral atom.

From the information

Protons = 14

electron = 18

Net Charge = no of proton - no of electron

= 14 - 18 = -4

Mass number = 14 + 15 = 29

Thus, the chemical symbol = Si^{-4}

For ion with 27 proton, 32 neutrons and 25 electrons

Net charge = 27 - 25 = +2

Mass number = 27 + 32 = 59

Thus, the chemical symbol = Co^{+2}
