Answer:

3.62moles

Explanation:

First let us generate a balanced equation for the reaction

2Na + Cl2 —> 2NaCl

Molar Mass of Na = 23g/mol

Mass of Na from the balanced equation = 2 x 23 = 46g

Molar Mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

Mass of NaCl from the balanced equation = 2 x 58.5 = 117g

From the question,

46g of Na produced 117g of NaCl.

Therefore, 83g of Na will produce = (83 x 117)/46 = 211.11g of NaCl

Converting this mass (211.11g of NaCl) to mole, we obtain:

n = Mass /Molar Mass

n = 211.11/ 58.5

3.62moles

What are the empirical and molecular formulas of a hydrocarbon if combustion of 2.10 g of the compound yields 6.59 g co2 and 2.7

mariarad [96]

The empirical formula of hydrocarbon is CH2

The molecular formula of the hydrocarbon is C6H12

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Hydrocarbon is made up of carbon and hydrogen

<h3><u><em> </em></u>Empirical formula calculation</h3>

Step 1: find the moles CO2 and H2O

moles =mass/molar mass

moles of CO2 = 6.59 g/ 44 g/mol = 0.15 moles

moles of H2O = 2.70 g / 18 g/mol = 0.15 moles

Step 2: Find the moles ratio of Co2:H2O by diving each mole by smallest mole(0.15)

that is for CO2 = 0.15/0.15 =1

For H2O = 0.15/0.15 =1

therefore the mole ratio of Co2 : H2O = 1:1 which implies that 1 mole of Co2 and 1 mole of H2O is formed during combustion reaction.

From the the law of mass conservation the number of atoms in reactant side must be equal to number of atoms in product side

therefore since there 1 atom of C in product side there must be 1 atom of C in reactant side.

In addition there is 2 H atom in product side which should be the same in reactant side.

From information above the empirical formula is therefore = CH2

Molecular formula calculation

[CH2}n= 84 g/mol

[12+ (1x2)] n = 84 g/mol

14 n = 84 g/mol

n = 6

multiply the each subscript in CH2 by 6

Therefore the molecular formula = C6H12

Calculate the approximate number of atoms in a bacterium, assuming the average mass of an atom is ten times the mass of a hydrog

mezya [45]

Answer: -

The approximate number of atoms in a bacterium is 10¹¹

Explanation: -

We are given the mass of a bacterium is 10⁻¹⁵ kg.

We are told that the mass of a hydrogen atom is 10⁻²⁷ kg.

Finally we learn that the average mass of an atom of the bacterium is ten times the mass of a hydrogen atom.

Mass of an atom of bacterium = 10 x mass of hydrogen atom

= 10 x 10⁻²⁷ kg.

= 10⁻²⁶ kg.

Thus the number of atoms in a bacterium = $\frac{Total mass}{mass of 1 bacterium atom}$

= $\frac{10-15 kg}{10-26 kg}$

= 10¹¹

Vegetarian diets can provide high levels of antioxidants and a lipid profile that can help prevent coronary disease. However, th

Sati [7]

Answer: the best statement is 1 (Vitamin B12 (cobolamin) is missing from the vegan diet and very low in the lactovegetarian diet.)

Explanation:

Vitamin B12( cobalamin) is a water soluble vitamin that is essential in the formation of red blood cells. It also serves as a coenzyme in the metabolic reaction of the body. Such reaction includes:

- the remethylation of methionine from homocysteine which is catalyzed by methionine synthase and requires methylcobalamin.

The deficiency of vitamin B12 can lead to the following:

- elevated homocysteine ,

- an increase in methylmalonate

This is due to deficiencies in methionine synthase and methylmalonic acid mutase, respectively in individuals on vegan diet for several years.

Vegans are vegetarians that don't include diary or animal products in their meals. This predisposes them to lack of Vitamin B12. Dairy products provide some vitamin B12 in the lactovegetarian diet. Therefore statement 1 is the correct answer, thanks.
