Answer:

When the results of a new experiment to test atomic theory do not agree with the theory, scientist will repeat the experiment to make sure that his results are reliable.

Explanation:

In the scientific context, each new experiment must be performed with precision and following the steps of the scientific method.

An experiment that does not provide reliable data to demonstrate a theory must be reviewed in detail and performed again to confirm the data obtained in the first attempt.

A theory is a postulate that tries to explain a natural phenomenon, but whose argument can be discussed or does not have the acceptance of a law. When the theory is proven and there are no arguments against it, it can be universally accepted and becomes a law.

The other options are not valid due to:

  • <u><em>Scientists worldwide will reject atomic theory because of the new results</em></u><em>.  A theory cannot be discarded without solid arguments or evidence in order to dismiss it and establish a new one.</em>
  • <u><em>The scientist will change his results to agree with the accepted theory</em></u><em>.  This would be an unethical procedure and unacceptable to the scientific community.</em>
  • <em><u>Other scientists will reject the results because they do not agree with the theory</u></em><em>. The opinion of other scientists is not enough to dismiss a theory, if it has a valid scientific basis.</em>

Indicate which of the following criteria are important for the selection of a buffer to use in an in vitro biochemical reaction.
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is: d. The pKa of the chosen buffer should be close to the optimal pH for the biochemical reaction.

Explanation:

The buffer resist or maintain the change in pH in case of Acid or basic addition to the solution. The buffer capacity should be within one or two pH units when compared to the optimal pH.

Thus it is important to select a buffer with pKa close to the optimum pH of the reaction because the ability for the buffer to maintain the pH is is great at the pH close to pKa.

What is the molar ratio for the following equation after it has been properly balanced?
hichkok12 [17]

6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → 3 Na₂O + 6 Fe

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Method One: Refer to electron transfers.

Oxidation states:

  • Na: from 0 to +1; loses one electron.
  • Fe: from +3 to 0; gains three electrons.

Each mole of Fe₂O₃ contains two Fe atoms and will gain 2 × 3 = 6 electrons during the reaction. It takes 6 moles of Na to supply all those electrons.

6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → ? Na₂O + ? Fe

  • There are two moles of Na atoms in each mole of Na₂O. 6 moles of Na will make 3 moles of Na₂O.
  • There are two moles of Fe atoms in each mole of Fe₂O₃. 1 mole of Fe₂O₃ will make 2 moles of Fe.

6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → 3 Na₂O + 2 Fe

Method Two: Atoms conserve.

Fe₂O₃ has the largest number of atoms among one mole of all four species in this reaction. Assume <em>one</em> as its coefficient.

? Na + <em>1</em> Fe₂O₃ → ? Na₂O + ? Fe

There are two moles of Fe atoms and three moles of O atoms in each mol of Fe₂O₃. One mole of Fe₂O₃ contains two moles of Fe and three moles of O. There are one mole of O atom in every mole of Na₂O. Three moles of O will go to three moles of Na₂O.

? Na + <em>1</em> Fe₂O₃ → <em>3</em> Na₂O + <em>2</em> Fe

Each mole of Na₂O contains two moles of Na. Three moles of Na₂O will contain six moles of Na.

<em>6</em> Na + <em>1</em> Fe₂O₃ → <em>3</em> Na₂O + <em>2</em> Fe

Simplify the coefficients. All coefficients in this equation are now full number and relatively prime. Hence the equation is balanced.

6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → 3 Na₂O + 2 Fe
