<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is 2.7\times 10^{24}

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Moles of mercury = 4.5 moles

According to the mole concept:

1 mole of an element contains 6.022\times 10^{23} number of atoms.

So, 4.5 moles of mercury will contain 4.5\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=27.099\times 10^{23} number of atoms.

The rule that must be applied for the multiplication and division in significant figures is:

The least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

Here, the least precise significant number in problem are 2. Thus, the answer must also contain 2 least significant numbers.

Therefore, the correct answer becomes 2.7\times 10^{24}

Which is a function of nucleic acids?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: i have to answer correct first number three and second number one.

Explanation:

1.-regulate cell processes : Nucleic acids are located inside the nucleus and the nucleus is the brain of the cell, it says what functions must be done, then I think this option is correct.

2.- provide structure : Nucleic acids are large molecules but very weak, the couldn't be able to give structure. This option is wrong.

3.- transmit genetic information : The main function of nucleic acids is transmit genetic information, so this option is correct.

4.- fight disease: Nucleic acids are useful to transmit genetic information, and saying the functions a cell must do but fight against diseases is not one of their functions.

Analysis of the water content of a lake found in the desert showed that it contained 17.5 percent chloride ion, and has a densit
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

The molarity is 6.0 M.

Explanation:

<em>The </em><em>concentration</em><em> of a solution is the amount of solute present in a given amount  of solvent, or a given amount of solution.</em>

In this problem, we are asked to convert percent by mass to molarity, which are two different concentration units.

<em>The </em><em>percent by mass </em><em>is the ratio of the mass of a solute to the mass of the solution, multiplied by 100 percent.</em> On the other hand, <em>molarity (M)</em><em> is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.</em>

If we have 17.15 percent chloride ion, that means that we have 17.15 grams of chloride ion in 100 grams of solution. The density provided is the density of the solution, so we calculate how many mL correspond to 100 grams of solution:

1.23 g ----------- 1 mL

100 g ------------ <u>x= 81.3 mL</u>

Therefore, 17.5 grams of chloride ion are contained in 81.3 mL. Now we need to convert these grams into moles.

The atomic mass of chlorine is 35.5 g/mol:

35.5 g --------------- 1 mol

17.5 g --------------- <u>x= 0. 49 mol</u>

This 0.49 moles are contained in 81.13 mL, the definition of molarity says that this moles are contained in a liter (or what is the same, 1000 mL):

81.3 mL --------------- 0.49 mol

1000 mL ------------- x= 6.0 M

The molarity of the chloride ion will be 6.0 M.

A student ran the following reaction in the laboratory at 671 K: 2NH3(g) N2(g) + 3H2(g) When she introduced 7.33×10-2 moles of N
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Kc = 8.05x10⁻³

Explanation:

This is the equilibrium:

                 2NH₃(g)   ⇄     N₂(g)     +     3H₂(g)

Initially       0.0733

React         0.0733α          α/2                3/2α

Eq     0.0733 - 0.0733α    α/2                0.103

We introduced 0.0733 moles of ammonia, initially. So in the reaction "α" amount react, as the ratio is 2:1, and 2:3, we can know the moles that formed products.

Now we were told that in equilibrum we have a [H₂] of 0.103, so this data can help us to calculate α.

3/2α = 0.103

α = 0.103 . 2/3 ⇒ 0.0686

So, concentration in equilibrium are

NH₃ = 0.0733 - 0.0733 . 0.0686 = 0.0682

N₂ = 0.0686/2 = 0.0343

So this moles, are in a volume of 1L, so they are molar concentrations.

Let's make Kc expression:

Kc= [N₂] . [H₂]³ / [NH₃]²

Kc = 0.0343 . 0.103³ / 0.0682² = 8.05x10⁻³
