Which best describes how Dalton's early theory of atomic structure differs with modern theories? He did not know -

1 answer:

4 0

John Dalton introduced a theory proposing that elements vary because of the mass of their atoms.
He said in his theory that all matter is made up of indivisible blocks called atoms. He also stipulated in his theory that elements are identical thus, have different sizes and masses.
Dalton's theory was different from Niels Bohr who proposed a new atomic model which was also commonly known as the modern atomic theory. Bohr's theory says that atoms are arranged in circular orbits around the nucleus. He patterned his model as the solar system.

If a particular ore contains 58.6 % calcium phosphate, what minimum mass of the ore must be processed to obtain 1.00 kg of phosp

rjkz [21]

Answer is: mass of the ore is 8.54kg.

ω(Ca₃(PO₄)₂ - calcium phosphate) = 58.6% ÷ 100% = 0.586.
m(P) = 1.00 kg · 1000 g/kg.
m(P) = 1000 g.
In one molecule of calcium phosphate there are two phosphorus atoms:
M(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) = 310.18 g/mol.
M(P) = 30.97 g/mol.
For one kilogram of phosphorus, we need:
M(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : 2M(P) = m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : m(P).
310.18 g/mol : 61.94 g/mol = m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : 1000 g.
m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) = 5007.75 g ÷ 1000 g/kg = 5.007 kg.
Mass of ore find from proportion:
m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : m(ore) = 56% : 100%.
m(ore) = 100% · 5.007 kg ÷ 58.6%.
m(ore) = 8.54kg.

Consider the half reactions below for a chemical reaction.

ladessa [460]

Answer:

Option A:

Zn(s) + Cu^(2+) (aq) → Cu(s) + Zn^(2+)(aq)

Explanation:

The half reactions given are:

Zn(s) → Zn^(2+)(aq) + 2e^(-)

Cu^(2+) (aq) + 2e^(-) → Cu(s)

From the given half reactions, we can see that in the first one, Zn undergoes oxidation to produce Zn^(2+).

While in the second half reaction, Cu^(2+) is reduced to Cu.

Thus, for the overall reaction, we will add both half reactions to get;

Zn(s) + Cu^(2+) (aq) + 2e^(-) → Cu(s) + Zn^(2+)(aq) + 2e^(-)

2e^(-) will cancel out to give us;

Zn(s) + Cu^(2+) (aq) → Cu(s) + Zn^(2+)(aq)

If the lab technician needs 30 liters of a 25% acid solution, how many liters of the 10% and the 30% acid solutions should she m

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

7.5 L of the 10% and 22.5 L of the 30% acid solution, she should mix.

Explanation:

Let the volume of 10% acid solution used to make the mixture = x L

So, the volume of 30% acid solution used to make the mixture = y L

Total volume of the mixture = x + y = 30 L .................. (1)

For 10% acid solution:

C₁ = 10% , V₁ = x L

For 30% acid solution :

C₂ = 30% , V₂ = y L

For the resultant solution of sulfuric acid:

C₃ = 25% , V₃ = 30 L

Using

C₁V₁ + C₂V₂ = C₃V₃

10×x + 30×y = 25×30

So,

x + 3y = 75 .................. (2)

Solving 1 and 2 we get,

x = 7.5 L

y = 22.5 L

As a general rule, how many specific substrates can bind to an enzyme?

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

Enzyme Active Site and Substrate Specificity

There may be one or more substrates for each type of enzyme, depending on the particular chemical reaction. In some reactions, a single-reactant substrate is broken down into multiple products. In others, two substrates may come together to create one larger molecule.
