<span>The question says, in biochemical reactions, enzymes acts as catalyst causing the............. The correct option is A. The minimum energy that must be overcome before a chemical reaction occur is activation energy. Enzymes act as catalyst to lower the activation energy so that the biochemical reaction can occur. </span>

When 4.15 grams of silver nitrate is reacted with 1.11 grams of iron(III) chloride, which best represents the amount of silver c

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The mass of silver chloride produced = 2.202 g

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction is given below

3AgNO₃(aq) + FeCl₃(aq) ----> 3AgCl(s) + Fe(NO₃)₃(aq)

molar mass of AgNO₃ = 170 g/mol

molar mass of FeCl₃ = 233.5 g/mol

molar mass of AgCl = 143.5 g/mol

3 moles of silver nitrate reacts with 1 mole of iron (iii) chloride to give 3 moles of silver nitrate

4.15 grams of AgNO₃ = 4.15/170 = 0.0244 moles of AgNO₃

1.11 grams of FeCl₃ = 1.11/233.5 = 0.0047 moles of FeCl₃

mole ratio of AgNO₃ to FeCl₃ = 0.0244/0.0047 = 5 : 1

therefore, FeCl₃ is the limiting reactant

0.0047 moles of FeCl₃ reacting will produce 0.0047 * 3 moles of AgCl = 0.0141 moles of AgCl

0.0141 moles of AgCl = 0.0141 * 143.5 g of AgCl = 2.02 g of AgCl =

Therefore mass of silver chloride produced = 2.202 g

Sodium sulfate is slowly added to a solution containing 0.0500 M Ca 2 + ( aq ) and 0.0390 M Ag + ( aq ) . What will be the conce

levacccp [35]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

Sodium sulfate is slowly added to a solution containing 0.0500 M $Ca^{2+}(aq)$ and 0.0390 M $Ag^{+}(aq)$ . What will be the concentration of $Ca^{2+}$ (aq) when $Ag_{2}SO_{4}(s)$ begins to precipitate? What percentage of the $Ca^{2+}(aq)$ can be separated from the Ag(aq) by selective precipitation?

Explanation:

The given reaction is as follows.

$Ag_{2}SO_{4} \rightleftharpoons 2Ag^{+} + SO^{2-}_{4}$

$[Ag^{+}]$ = 0.0390 M

When $Ag_{2}SO_{4}$ precipitates then expression for $K_{sp}$ will be as follows.

$K_{sp} = [Ag^{+}]^{2}[SO^{2-}_{4}]$

$1.20 \times 10^{-5} = (0.0390)^{2} \times [SO^{2-}_{4}]$

$[SO^{2-}_{4}]$ = 0.00788 M

Now, equation for dissociation of calcium sulfate is as follows.

$CaSO_{4} \rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+} + SO^{2-}_{4}$

$K_{sp} = [Ca^{2+}][SO^{2-}_{4}]$

$4.93 \times 10^{-5} = [Ca^{2+}] \times 0.00788$

$[Ca^{2+}]$ = 0.00625 M

Now, we will calculate the percentage of $Ca^{2+}$ remaining in the solution as follows.

$\frac{0.00625}{0.05} \times 100$

= 12.5%

And, the percentage of $Ca^{2+}$ that can be separated is as follows.

100 - 12.5

= 87.5%

Thus, we can conclude that 87.5% will be the concentration of $Ca^{2+}(aq)$ when $Ag_{2}SO_{4}(s)$ begins to precipitate.

nikdorinn [45]

They have the same number of electrons in their outer shells. Elements in the same group often share similar chemical properties because the outer electrons generally determine a lot of their properties

A molecule of pentane is made of 5 carbon atoms and 12 hydrogen atoms. a collection of pentane molecules has 3.01 x 1024 carbon

Novay_Z [31]

3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— (12/5) hydrogen atoms
Looking at the formula for the molecule, the ratio of carbon to hydrogen atoms is 5:12, so if we divide the number of carbon atoms by 5 and then multiply by 12, we can find the number of hydrogen atoms. Let's look at the available options and see what makes sense.
3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— (12/5) hydrogen atoms
* This is exactly correct.
(3.01 Ă— 10^24 / 5) hydrogen atoms
* Nope. This will tell you how many pentane MOLECULES you have, but not the number of hydrogen atoms.
3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— (5/12) hydrogen atoms
* Close, but the ratio (5/12) will tell you the number of carbon atoms you have if you give it the number of hydrogen atoms. So this choice is wrong.
3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— 12 hydrogen atoms description
* This would tell you the number of hydrogen atoms you have if you know the number of pentane molecules you have. So this choice is also wrong.
