Answer:

Hereditary information in the cell would be destroyed.

Explanation:

The nucleus can be defined as a membrane bound organelle that is found in eukaryotic cells. The main function of the nucleus is that it controls all activities that is related to the growth of the cell and also reproduction. The nucleus contains the cell hereditary information(DNA).

The nucleus is the most important organelle in the cell, It can sometimes be referred to as the brain of the cell. Therefore any health related condition that affects the nucleus would directly destroy all hereditary information that is stored in the cell.

If 17.4 mL of 0.800 M HCl solution are needed to neutralize 5.00 mL of a household ammonia solution, what is the molar concentra

Verizon [17]

NH3 +HCl ----> NH4Cl

moles of HCl used = (0.8 x 17.4) /1000= 0.0139 moles
by use of reacting ratio between HCl to NH4Cl which is 1:1 therefore the moles of NH4Cl is also = 0.0139 moles
molar concentration = moles /volume in liters

molar concentration is therefore= (0.0139/5) x1000 = 2.7 M

Calculate the molar solubility of CaF2 at 25°C in a solution that is 0.010 M in Ca(NO3)2. The Ksp for CaF2 is 3.9 x 10-11.

madreJ [45]

Answer:

$Molar \ solubility=3.12x10^{-5}M$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the dissociation of calcium fluoride:

$CaF_2(s)\rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+}+2F^-$

The equilibrium expression is:

$Ksp=[Ca^{2+}][F^-]^2$

In such a way, via the ICE procedure, including an initial concentration of calcium of 0.01 M (due to the calcium nitrate solution), the reaction extent $x$ is computed as follows:

$3.9x10^{-11}=(0.01+x)(2*x)^2\\\\x=0.0000312M$

Thus, the molar solubility equals the reaction extent $x$ , therefore:

$Molar \ solubility=3.12x10^{-5}M$

Regards.

Answer:

The mass of this 25 mL supercritical CO2 sample has a mass of 11.7g

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

The supercritical CO2 has a density of 0.469 g/cm³ (or 0.469 g/mL)

The sample hasa volume of 25.0 mL

Step 2: Calculating mass of the sample

The density is the mass per amount of volume

0.469g/cm³ = 0.469g/ml

The mass for a sample of 25.0 mL = 0.469g/mL * 25.0 mL = 11.725g ≈ 11.7g

The mass of this 25 mL supercritical CO2 sample has a mass of 11.7g
