Determine the number of atoms in 1.85 ml of mercury. (the density of mercury is 13.5 g/ml.)

1 answer:

7 0

First step is to get the mass of the mercury:
Pressure = mass/volume
mass = pressure x volume = 13.5 x 1.85 = 24.975 gm

Second step is to calculate the number of moles in 24.975 gm:
From the periodic table, the molar mass of mercury is 200.59
mass = number of moles x molar mass
number of moles = 24.975 / 200.59 = 0.1245 mole

Last step is to get the number of atoms:
Each mole contains 6.02 x 10^23 atoms
number of atoms = 0.1245 x 6.02 x 10^23 = 7.4949 x 10^22 atoms

Main job is to sort and package proteins and other substances in a plant cell

melomori [17]

Answer:

Main job of golgi bodies is to sort and package proteins and other substances in a plant cell.

Explanation:

Golgi bodies are also called post office of the cell because it modify and distribute proteins for the cell. First, proteins are made in the organelle of the cell i. e. endoplasmic reticulum. From here, it is send to the Golgi apparatus for modification. Golgi bodies add some special structures with the protein and this protein leaves golgi bodies which is used by the cell where it is needed.

Methyl orange (HMO) is an acid-base indicator. Its two forms in solution are HMO (red) and MO- (yellow). When HMO is added to di

Anna007 [38]

Answer:add acid

Explanation:

Methyl orange is red in acid and yellow in base. When added to distilled water and the colour turns yellow, it means it is in its anion form. The equilibrium can be shifted towards the acid form (HMO) by adding acid. The acid will protonate the indicator shifting the position of equilibrium towards the acid side and the solution turns red.

The suggestion is to prevent a puddle of the liquid present in the sample from forming or from it leaking on to the surface on which it is placed. For example, if precipitates of a solid are removed from water and then placed on filter paper to dry, the water will soak into the filter paper and then leak on to the counter on which it is placed. If this precipitate were placed in a watch glass or weighing paper, the water would only evaporate and would not contaminate the sample.

Electron A falls from energy level X to energy level Y and releases blue light. Electron B falls from energy level Y to energy l

MrMuchimi

Answer: Transition from X to Y will have greater energy difference.

Explanation: For studying the energy difference, we require Planck's equation.

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where, h = Planck's Constant

c = Speed of light

E = Energy

$\lambda$ = Wavelength of particle

From the equation, it is visible that the energy and wavelength follow inverse relation which means that with low wavelength value, energy will be the highest and vice-versa.

As electron A falls from X-energy level to Y-energy level, it releases blue light which has low wavelength value (around 470 nm) which means that it has high energy.

Similarly, Electron B releases red light when it falls from Y-energy level to Z-energy level, which has high wavelength value (around 700 nm), giving it a low energy value.

Energy Difference between X-energy level and Y-energy level will be more.
