Answer:

<h2>chemoautotrophs</h2>

Explanation:

Such types of bacteria that oxidize inorganic compounds to obtain energy and use carbon dioxide as a carbon source to synthesize their food are known as chemoautotrophs such as iron-oxidizing bacteria, cyanobacteria, sulfur-oxidizing bacteria and some other. Chemoautrophic mode of nutrition is a type of autotrophic nutrition in which organisms have the ability to synthesized their own food by using chemical energy in the place of solar energy. The organismS that use solar energy to synthesize their food are known as photoautotrophic organisms such as plants and some other organisms.

A chemist wants to make 6.5 L of a .350M CaCl2 solution. What mass of CaCl2(in g) should the chemist use?
kotykmax [81]
First M stands for Molarity which is (moles of solute) / (Liters of solution). we also know that moles = (mass) / (molar mass). so we can form some equations here. We know:
Molarity (M) = moles (mol) / Liters (L)
moles (mol) = (mass) / (molar mass)

we can substitute the (mass) / (molar mass) for (moles) and get:
M = [(mass) / (molar mass)] / Liters

we can now isolate mass and get
M * Liters * molar mass = mass

now we need to find the molar mass of CaCl2 which is 110.98 g/mol

plug the values in and get
.350M * 6.5L * 110.98 g/mol = mass

mass = 252.4795g however the 6.5L has only 2 sig figs so i would say

mass CaCl2 = 2.5 * 10 ^2 g

a 68.4-g sample of potassium chloride was added to 200.0g of water at 20 degrees C. Is the solution saturated, unsaturated, or s
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer is: the solution is saturated.

Solubility of potassium chloride (KCl) on 20°C is  34.2 grams in 100 grams of water, so in 200 grams of water will dissolve two times more salt (68.4 g).

Saturated solution contains the maximum concentration of a solute dissolved in the solvent (usually water) and if extra solute is add to saturated solution, that solute will not dissolve.

The amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solvent depends of chemical composition, temperature and pressure.

How many moles of ammonia, NH,, are contained in<br><br> 6.21 x 1024 molecules of ammonia?
ankoles [38]

Answer:

10.32 moles of ammonia NH₃

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Number of molecules = 6.21×10²⁴ molecules

Number of mole of NH₃ =?

The number of mole of NH₃ can be obtained as follow:

From Avogadro's hypothesis,

6.02×10²³ molecules = 1 mole

Therefore,

6.21×10²⁴ molecules = 6.21×10²⁴ / 6.02×10²³

6.21×10²⁴ molecules = 10.32 moles

Thus, 6.21×10²⁴ molecules contains 10.32 moles of ammonia NH₃
