Which pair consists of a molecular formula and its corresponding empirical formula?

2 answers:

<span>3) P4O10 and P2O5
The mass of the P4O10 divided by the mass of the P2O5=2, and if you multiply the number of atoms in the P2O5 by 2, you get the P4O10, thus P2O5 is its empirical formula.</span>

3 because 4 divided by 2 is 2 (P2) and 10 divided by 2 is 5 (O5) which reduces P4O10 to P2O5

What does an-ite or-ate ending in a polvatomic ion mean?

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

An -ite or -ate ending means a polyatomic ion that includes oxygen is in the formula.

ate = one more O than -ite

Explanation:

Example:

NO2 is nitrite

NO3 is nitrate

You can see that the molecules are made of the same elements, however they have more or less of one of the elements (i.e. oxygen).

Complete and balance the reaction in acidic solution. equation: ZnS + NO_{3}^{-} -> Zn^{2+} + S + NO ZnS+NO−3⟶Zn2++S+NO Which

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Balanced reaction: $3ZnS+2NO_{3}^{-}+8H^{+}\rightarrow 3Zn^{2+}+3S+2NO+4H_{2}O$

S is oxidized and N is reduced.

$NO_{3}^{-}$ is the oxidizing agent and ZnS is the reducing agent.

Explanation:

Reaction: $ZnS+NO_{3}^{-}\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+S+NO$

$\Rightarrow$ Oxidation: $ZnS\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+S$

Balance charge: $ZnS-2e^{-}\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+S$ ...............(1)

$\Rightarrow$ Reduction: $NO_{3}^{-}\rightarrow NO$

Balance H and O in acidic medium : $NO_{3}^{-}+4H^{+}\rightarrow NO+2H_{2}O$

Balance charge: $NO_{3}^{-}+4H^{+}+3e^{-}\rightarrow NO+2H_{2}O$ ...............(2)

[ $3\times$ Equation-(1)] + [ $2\times$ Equation-(2)]:

$3ZnS+2NO_{3}^{-}+8H^{+}\rightarrow 3Zn^{2+}+3S+2NO+4H_{2}O$

Oxidation number of S increases from (-2) to (0) for the conversion of ZnS to S. Therefore S is oxidized.

Oxidation number of N decreases from (+5) to (+2) for the conversion of $NO_{3}^{-}$ to NO. Therefore N is reduced.

$NO_{3}^{-}$ consumes electron from ZnS. Therefore $NO_{3}^{-}$ is the oxidizing agent and ZnS is the reducing agent.

Calcium carbonate interacts with omadacycline (Nuzyra). How should this interaction be avoided?(Interactions) hint look up omada

stellarik [79]

Answer: An interaction is caused between the two medications (Calcium carbonate and Omadacycline) and causes serious negative side effects, due to the fact that when the two are taken together the body is unable to process the antibiotic therefore causing a reduction in the concentration of antiobiotics in the blood stream. this causes a reduction the body's ability to fight off the infection. In addition, drug interactions with calcium increase the risk of dangerously high calcium levels in the blood and disrupt the body´s basal state.

Explanation:

Omadacycline is a broad spectrum antibiotic. It belongs to the tetracycline group and specifically to the aminomethylcycline subclass and is used mainly in the treatment of treatment of community-acquired bacterial pneumonia and acute skin and skin structure infections. the mecanism of action of Omadacycline works like every other tetracycline antiobiotic. It inhibits the bacterial protein synthesis thereby rendurig the bacteria useless and thus stopping the replicaton of these bacterias.

Calcium carbonate on the other hand, is usuallly administered as a dietary supplement when the corporal levels of calcium do not reach sufficient levels. It may also be used as an antacid to relieve heartburn, acid indigestion, and nausea. It is available with or without a prescription and is available in many forms for example; as a tablet, chewable tablet, capsule or as a liquid.

Calcium is vital for healthy bones, muscles, nervous system, and heart. Calcium is involved in cardiac muscle contraction and electrical impulse conduction.

When calcium carbonate is taken with Omadacycline causes a significant increase in the levels of calcium in the blood. Excess levels of calcium interfere with the absorption of the antibiotic because calcium binds to the tetracycline in the intestine causing a reduction in the efectiveness. Failure to control the infection could lead to severe side effects whether temporary or permanent and in extreme cases death.

<h3>Calcium carbonate SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN WITH </h3>

Bisphosphonates
Fluoroquinolone antibiotics
H2 blockers
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs)
Tetracycline antiobiotics (Omadacycline- Nuzyra)
Thiazide diuretics

In conclusion, calcium carbonate should not be taken with tetracycline antiobiotics in this case Omadacycline because it causes an ncrease in calcium levels which binds to the antibiotic therefore reducing its absorption by the intestine and reducing its effect in fighting off the infection. The antiobiotic should be taken two hours before the calcium carbonate or about four to six hours after.
