A carbon atom is not a metallic element.  Its location on the periodic table indicates that it is a non metal since the further right something is on the periodic table, the less metallic that element is.

The compound zinc fluoride is a strong electrolyte. write the transformation that occurs when solid zinc fluoride dissolves in w
Svetach [21]
Strong electrolytes by definition are those compounds that completely dissociates into their component ions when dissolved in water. The chemical formula for the zinc fluoride is,
               ZnF2
This means that each formula unit is composed of one atom of zinc and 2 atoms of fluoride. The ions comprising the unit are Zn²⁺ and F⁻. The dissociation is as shown below,
              ZnF₂ -->  Zn²⁺  + 2F⁻
When dissolved in water it is expected that the compound dissociates into three different ions, one Zn²⁺ and two F⁻.

During bromination using NBS, the addition product is not observed because the rate of addition is _______than the rate of the c
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

slower

Explanation:

NBS is used in place of Br2 during bromination because the use of Br2 tends to result in the formation of a large concentration of the addition product.  This is because, the Br2 interacts with the double bond to yield only the dibromide (addition product).

The usefulness of NBS lies in the fact that it provides a lower concentration of Br2, and such that the rate addition is slower than the chain propagation steps. Only the monobromination product is observed

The low concentration of Br2 allows the free-radical reaction to out-compete the alkene addition reaction.

Calculate the pH and pOH of 500.0 mL of a phosphate solution that is 0.285 M HPO42– and 0.285 M PO43–. (Ka for HPO42- = 4.2x10-1
jekas [21]

Answer: when concentrations of acid and base are same, pH = pKa

PH = 12.38 pOH = 1.62

Explanation: pKa= -log(Ka)= 12.38. PH + pOH = 14.00

Calculate the mass of glucose metabolized by a 60.0 −kg person in climbing a mountain with an elevation gain of 1550 m . Assume
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Mass of glucose = 515.34 g

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass; m = 60 kg

Elevation; h = 1550 m

Acceleration due to gravity; 9.8 m/s²

Now, work performed to lift 60kg by 1550m is given by the formula;

W = mgh

W = 60 × 9.8 × 1550

W = 911400 J

We are told the actual work is 4 times the one above.

Thus;

Actual work = 4W = 4 × 911400 = 3,645,600 J

Now,

Molar mass of Glucose(C6H12O6) = 180 g/mol

We are given standard enthalpy of combustion = -1273.3 KJ/mol = -1273300

Moles of glucose = 3645600/1273300 = 2.863mol

Mass of glucose = 2.863 mol × 180 g/mol

Mass of glucose = 515.34 g
