he chemical formula for a carbohydrate is C6 H12 O6  

you have your 6 carbons (the carbo-) and you have 6 water molules (-hydrate). H12O6 means that for every one oxygen there is two hydrogens, which is the set up of a water molecule.  

C+C+C+C+C+C+H2O+H2O+H2O+H2O+H2O+H2O  

=C6 H12 O6

Examining the figure, how many orders of magnitude larger is a person than a bacterial cell?
TEA [102]
This question is repeated. I will copy the same answer provided by myself.

Well you did not show the figure, but I can show you how to do it.

Suppose the person is 6 feet tall and the bacteria cell is 1 micrometer in length.

So, put both magnitudes in the same units. I will use meter.

Person: 6 feet * 0.3048 m / foot = 1.8288 m, which in orders of magnitud is about 2 m

Bacteria cell: 1 micrometer * 1 m / 1,000,000 micrometer = 1 * 10 ^ -6 m.

Now divide: 2m / 10^ -6 m = 2,000,000

So a person is about 2 million times larger than a bacteria cell.

If the numbers in your figure are different you can use the same method to get a new result according to your figure.

A 0.3146 g sample of a mixture of NaCl ( s ) and KBr ( s ) was dissolved in water. The resulting solution required 45.70 mL of 0
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The mass percentage of NaCl(s) in the mixture is 49.7%

Explanation:

The given variables are

mass of sample of mixture = 0.3146 g

Volume of AgNO₃ required to react comletely with the chloride ions = 45.70 mL

Concentration of the AgNO₃ added = 0.08765 M

The equations for the reactions oare

NaCl(aq) + AgNO₃ (aq) = AgCl(s) + NaNO₃(aq)

AgNO₃ (aq) + KBr (aq) → AgBr (s) + KNO₃

The equation for the reaction shows one mole of NaCl reacts with one mole of AgNO₃ to form one mole of AgCl

Thus 45.70 mL of 0.08765 M solution of AgNO₃ contains\frac{45.7}{1000} (0.08765) = 0.004 moles

Therefore the sum of the number of moles of Br⁻ and Cl⁻

precipitated out of the solution =  0.004 moles

Thus if the mass of NaCl in the sample = z then the mass of KBr = y

However the mass of the sample is given as 0.3146 g which  means the molarity of the solution is 0.004 moles

given by

\frac{z}{58.44} + \frac{y}{119} = 0.004 moles  and z + y = 0.3146

Therefore z = 0.3146 - y which gives

\frac{(0.3146-y)}{58.44} + \frac{y}{119} = 0.004 moles

-8.7×10⁻³y +0.54×10⁻³ = 0.004

or 8.7×10⁻³y = 1.37769× 10⁻³

y = 0.158 g and z = 0.156 Thus the mass of NaCl = 0.156 g and the mass percentage = 0.156/0.3146×100 = 49.7% NaCl

The mass percentage of NaCl(s) in the mixture is 49.7%

At 22 °c an excess amount of a generic metal hydroxide m(oh)2 is mixed with pure water. the resulting equilibrium solution has a
Goshia [24]
The balanced reaction equation:
M(OH)2 ↔ M^2+ + 2(OH)^-

and when the Ksp = [M^2+][OH-]^2
when PH + POH = 14
∴ POH = 14-10.3= 3.7 
and when POH = - ㏒ [OH-]
 3.7 = -㏒[OH-]
∴[OH] = 2x10^-4 
and when [M^2+] = 1/2[OH-]
∴[M^2+] = (2x10^-4) / 2 = 0.0001 M
So, by substitution in Ksp formula:
∴Ksp = (0.0001 * (2x10^-4)^2 = 4x10^-12
