What is the molality of an aqueous KCl solution with a mole fraction of KCl, XKCl = 0.175? (The molar mass of KCl = 74.55 g/mol

and the molar mass of H2O is 18.02 g/mol.)

Answer:

The molality of the KCl solution is 11.8 molal

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mol fracrion KCl = 0.175

Molar mass KCl = 74.55 g/mol

Molar mass H2O = 18.02 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate mol fraction H2O

mol fraction H2O = 1 - 0.175 = 0.825

Step 3: Calulate mass of H2O

Suppose the total moles = 1.0 mol

Mass H2O = moles H2O * molar mass

Mass H2O = 0.825 * 18.02 g/mol

Mass H2O = 14.87 grams = 0.01487 kg

Step 4: Calculate molality

Molality KCl = 0.175 / 0.01487 kg

Molality KCl = 11.8 molal

The molality of the KCl solution is 11.8 molal

Answer:

2Cu2S + 3O2 + 2C -------> 4Cu + 2SO2 + 2CO

Explanation:

Equation 1 should correctly be written as;

2Cu2S + 3O2-----> 2Cu2O + 2SO2

Equation 2 should be correctly written as;

2Cu2O + 2C -----> 4Cu + 2CO

The overall reaction equation is;

2Cu2S + 3O2 + 2C -------> 4Cu + 2SO2 + 2CO

Note that species that are intermediates are cancelled out .

Use the following scenario to answer the question: A cell has an antiport protein on its apical surface. The cell is placed in a
balu736 [363]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Secondary active transport".

Explanation:

Secondary active transport is a form of across the membrane transport that involves a transporter protein catalyzing the movement of an ion down its electrochemical gradient to allow the movement of another molecule or ion uphill to its concentration/electrochemical gradient. In this example, the transporter protein (antiporter), move 3 Na⁺ into the cell in exchange for one Ca⁺⁺ leaving the cell. The 3 Na⁺ are the ions moved down its electrochemical gradient and the one Ca⁺⁺ is the ion moved uphill its electrochemical gradient, because Na+ and Ca⁺⁺are more concentrated in the solution than inside the cell. Therefore, this scenario is an example of secondary active transport.

What is the electron configuration for<br> 08<br> 16
Elis [28]

The electron configuration for Oxygen : [He] 2s²2p⁴

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Writing electron configurations starts from the lowest to the highest sub-shell energy level. There are 4 sub-shells in the shell of an atom, namely s, p, d, and f. The maximum number of electrons for each sub-shell is  

• s: 2 electrons  

• p: 6 electrons  

• d: 10 electrons and  

• f: 14 electrons  

Charging electrons in the sub-shell uses the following sequence:  

<em>1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶, 5s², 4d¹⁰, 5p⁶, 6s², etc.  </em>

The element is Oxgen, with symbol O, and :

the atomic number=8=number of electron

the atomic mass=16

The electron configuration based on the number of electrons(for Oxygen=8), so the configuration :

\tt _8^{16}O:1s^22s^22p^4 or we can write with noble gas [He] 2s²2p⁴
