Chemistry
1 answer:
Delicious77 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

(D.) Nitrifiers are bacteria that generate nitrites or nitrates.

Explanation:

In the nitrogen cycle which occurs in nature, ammonia and ammonium compounds in the soil from organic sources and are converted to nitrites and nitrates by aerobic microorganisms.

<em>Nitrifiers, as the name implies, are these such aerobic bacteria which oxidize inorganic constituents in the soil to generate energy.</em> Examples of these nitrifiers are <em>nitrobacter</em> and <em>nitrosomonas</em>.

"Which statement is true about the removal of a terminal phosphate" from ATP? Choose one: A. The reaction is associated with a p
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

C. The reaction is energetically favorable.

Explanation:

The reaction which shows the removal of the terminal phosphate from the ATP is shown below:

ATP+H_2O\rightarrow ADP+P_i+\ energy

The Gibbs' free energy change of this reaction, \Delta G^0=-7.3\ kcal/mol

Hence, Option A is not correct.

It is a type of hydrolysis reaction in which water is being added to the molecule.

Hence, Option B is not correct.

The Gibbs' free energy change is negative which means that the reaction is energetically favorable.

Option C is correct.

Zns (zinc sulfide) (Zn = 65.38; S = 32.06] *
irakobra [83]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Zinc and sulfur react to form zinc sulfide by the equation shown below. How many grams of ZnS can be formed when 12.0 g of Zn reacts with 6.50 g of S? (Atomic mass: Zn = 65.38, S = 32.06).

Answer:

17.5 g of ZNS

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

Zn(s) + S(s) ------->ZnS(s)

Number of moles of Zn = 12.0/65.38 = 0.18 moles

Number of moles of S = 6.50/32.06 = 0.20 moles

Hence Zn is the limiting reactant

If 1 mole of Zn yields 1 mole of ZnS

Then 0.18 moles of Zn also yields 0.18 moles of ZnS

Mass of ZnS produced = 0.18 moles *  97.44 g/mol = 17.5 g of ZNS

How many grams of CaCl₂ should be dissolved in 500.0 mL of water to make a 0.20M solution of CaCl₂?
Butoxors [25]
0.2M means 0.2mol CaCl2/1L solution.

This question didn't give us a density of the solution so needs an assumption that the solution has equal volume to water.

xmol/0.5L=0.2M
x = 0.1

0.1mol of CaCl2 is needed. Ca=40g/mol, Cl=35.5g/mol.
CaCl2 0.1mol = (40+35.5*2)*0.1=11.1g
