First find the molar masses of all of the compounds:
SrCl2 = 158.53g/mol
SrI2 = 341.43g/mol
SrO = 103.62g/mol
SrS = 119.68g/mo

Then find the molar mass of Sr in each of the compounds. Since there is only one Sr in every compound, the mass will be the same: 87.62g/mol Sr

Now divide the molar mass of Sr by each of compounds' masses:
SrCl2 = (87.62)/(158.53) = 0.553
SrI2 = (87.62)/(341.43) = 0.257
SrO = (87.62)/(103.62) = 0.846
SrS = (87.62)/(119.68) = 0.732

Now multiply each of the results by 100 to get the percent composition of Sr by mass:
(0.553)(100) = 55.3% Sr in SrCl2
(0.257)(100) = 25.7% Sr in SrI2
(0.846)(100) = 84.6% Sr in SrO
(0.732)(100) = 73.2% Sr in SrS

Thus SrO has the highest percent composition by mass of Sr

N2O5 decomposes to form NO2 and O2 with first-order kinetics. The initial concentration of N2O5 is 3.0 M and the reaction runs f
kow [346]

Answer : The final concentration of N_2O_5 is, 2.9 M

Explanation :

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  = 5.89\times 10^{-3}\text{ min}^{-1}

t = time passed by the sample  = 3.5 min

a = initial concentration of the reactant  = 3.0 M

a - x = concentration left after decay process = ?

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

3.5=\frac{2.303}{5.89\times 10^{-3}}\log\frac{3.0}{a-x}

a-x=2.9M

Thus, the final concentration of N_2O_5 is, 2.9 M

The basic building blocks of a protein are
snow_lady [41]


The building  blocks of protein are amino acids.

Amino acids are a class of organic compounds that contain at least one amino group, -NH2, and carboxyl group, -COOH.

Alpha amino acids , RCH(NH2)COOH, are the building blocks  from which proteins are constructed.

The NH group of one amino acid and the COOH  group of the other amino acid are joined together and a peptide bond -CONH-  is formed between the two amino acids and the product is called a dipeptide.

Describe the reaction below by listing the
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The covalent bond in Cl₂ is break and combine with sodium to form NaCl through ionic bond.

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

Na  +  Cl₂    →   NaCl

Balanced chemical equation:

2Na  +  Cl₂    →   2NaCl

The given reaction indicate the formation of sodium chloride.

Sodium chloride is an ionic compound. It is formed by the reaction of chlorine and sodium. The type of bond in Cl₂ is covalent. Both chlorine atoms are tightly held together through sharing of electrons. When sodium chloride is formed the covalent between the chlorine atoms are break and it react with sodium . The chlorine toms thus gain the one electron from the sodium atom and became negative ion while sodium by losing its one valance electrons became positive ions. The strong electrostatic forces are develop between them and ionic bond is formed.
