Balance each of the following redox reactions occurring in basic solution

1 answer:

5 0

When balancing redox reactions in basic solutions, first, we need to balance the number of oxygen atoms by adding OH- ions to either side. Then, we add H+ ions to balance the number of hydrogen atoms. After it is balanced, we combine the H+ and OH- in either side into H2O. Hope this helps.

For an enzymatically catalyzed reaction in which the measured values for KM and Vmax are, respectively, 10.0 mM and 0.172 mM min

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

17.2 minutes is the value of the turnover number.

Explanation:

Using Michaelis-Menten equation:

$V = V_{max}\times \frac{[S]}{ (Km + [S])}$

$V_{max }=k_{cat}\times E_o$

Where :

$V_{max}$ = max rate velocity

[S] = substrate concentration

$K_m$ = Michaelis-Menten constant

V = reaction rate

$k_{cat}$ = catalytic rate constant

$E_o$ = initial enzyme concentration

We have :

$K_m=10.0mM$

$E_o=10.0\mu M=10.0\times 0.001 mM$

$V_{max}=0.172 mM/min$

$V_{max}$ is the rate is obtained when all enzyme is bonded to the substrate. $k_{cat}$ is termed as the turnover number.

$k_{cat}=\frac{V_{max}}{E_o}=\frac{0.172 mM}{10.0\times 0.001 mM}$

$=17.2 minutes$

17.2 minutes is the value of the turnover number.

Select the correct answer.

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

A binary covalent compound is composed of two different elements (usually nonmetals). For example, a molecule of chlorine trifluoride, ClF3 contains 1 atom of chlorine and 3 atoms of fluorine.

Rule 1. The element with the lower group number is written first in the name; the element with the higher group number is written second in the name. Exception: when the compound contains oxygen and a halogen, the name of the halogen is the first word in the name.

Rule 2. If both elements are in the same group, the element with the higher period number is written first in the name.

Rule 3. The second element in the name is named as if it were an anion, i.e., by adding the suffix -ide to the root of the element name (e.g., fluorine = F, "fluoride" = F-; sulfur = S, "sulfide" = S2-).

Rule 4. Greek prefixes are used to indicate the number of atoms of each element in the chemical formula for the compound. Exception: if the compound contains one atom of the element that is written first in the name, the prefix "mono-" is not used.

Heating 2.40 g of the oxide of metal X (molar mass of X = 55.9 g/mol) in carbon monoxide (CO) yields the pure metal and carbon d

Korolek [52]

Answer:The molecular formula of the oxide of metal be $X_2O_3$ . The balanced equation for the reaction is given by:

$X_2O_3+3CO\rightarrow 3CO_2+2X$

Explanation:

Let the molecular formula of the oxide of metal be $X_2O_y$

$X_2O_y+yCO\rightarrrow yCO_2+2X$

Mass of metal product = 1.68 g

Moles of metal X = $\frac{1.68 g}{55.9 g/mol}=0.03005 mol$

1 mol of metal oxide produces 2 moles of metal X.

Then 0.03005 moles of metal X will be produced by:

$\frac{1}{2}\times 0.03005 mol=0.01502 mol$ of metal oxide

Mass of 0.01502 mol of metal oxide = 2.40 g (given)

$0.01502 mol\times (2\times 55.9 g/mol+y\times 16 g/mol)=2.40 g$

y = 2.999 ≈ 3

The molecular formula of the oxide of metal be $X_2O_3$ . The balanced equation for the reaction is given by:

$X_2O_3+3CO\rightarrow 3CO_2+2X$

How many moles of sodium atoms do you have if you have 5.60 ~

Papessa [141]

Answer:

0.93 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Na atom = ?

Number of atoms = 5.60× 10²³

Solution:

Avogadro number:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance. The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

5.60× 10²³ atoms × 1 mol / 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

0.93 mol
