Mixture cuz it contains gases, water vapor, dust and microbes

It is a mixture because the compounds that make up air e.g. oxygen (o2), Carbon dioxide (co2) and the most important Nitrogen which is an element and makes up 78.09% of air are not chemically bound in the way that compounds are because they can be separated easily and there has been no change in state to any of the compounds or elements in air!hope this helpful!

An aqueous solution of ammonium sulfate is allowed to react with an aqueous solution of calcium nitrate.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

<u>Answer:</u> The net ionic equation contains Ca^{2+}(aq.) ions

<u>Explanation:</u>

Net ionic equation of any reaction does not include any spectator ions.

Spectator ions are defined as the ions which does not get involved in a chemical equation. They are found on both the sides of the chemical reaction when it is present in ionic form.

The chemical equation for the reaction of ammonium sulfate and calcium nitrate is given as:

(NH_4)_2SO_4(aq.)+Ca(NO_3)_2(aq.)\rightarrow CaSO_4(s)2NH_4NO_3(aq.)

Ionic form of the above equation follows:

2NH_4^{+}(aq.)+SO_4^{2-}(aq.)+Ca^{2+}(aq.)+2NO_3^{-}(aq.)\rightarrow CaSO_4(s)+2NH_4^+(aq.)+2NO_3^-(aq.)

As, ammonia and nitrate ions are present on both the sides of the reaction. Thus, it will not be present in the net ionic equation and are spectator ions.

The net ionic equation for the above reaction follows:

Ca^{2+}(aq.)+SO_4^{2-}(aq.)\rightarrow CaSO_4(s)

Hence, the net ionic equation contains Ca^{2+}(aq.) ions

What is the mass of oxygen in 300 grams of carbonic acid (H2CO3)
DENIUS [597]

mass of carbonic acid = 300g

molar mass of H2CO3 = 2H + C + 3 O

= 2 x 1.008+ 12.01 + 3 x  16

= 62.03g/mol


moles of H2CO3 = mass/Molar mass

= 300/62.03

= 4.8364 moles


1 mole H2CO3 has 3 moles Oxygen


4.8364 moles H2CO3 contains  

=   3 x 4.8364  moles Oxygen  =   14.509 moles Oxygen


moles = mass/Molar mass


mass of oxygen = moles x Molar mass of Oxygen

= 14.509 x 16

= 232.15g Oxygen

mass of oxygen in 300g of carbonic acid(H2CO3) = 232.15g

I NEED HELP ASAP!!! THIS IS A 30 POINT QUESTION!!!
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Protein synthesis involves two major steps:

  1. <em>Transcription of the DNA to mRNA (a form of RNA)</em>
  2. <em>Translation of the mRNA molecule into a protein.</em>

<em></em>

Transcription involves the formation of a nucleotide sequence complementary to the DNA molecule, with the pairing of a different base, Uracil, with Guanine instead of the usual Thymine base. This occurs in the nucleus of the cell, and the resulting molecule is known as the mRNA.

This mRNA is transported into the cytoplasm through the nuclear pore for the next step, translation. This is primarily accomplished by ribosomes and tRNA molecules which are present in the cytoplasm of the cell. The result of this step is the generation of a protein molecule.
