Answer:

Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate is a mild surfactant.

Explanation:

Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate is an anionic surfactant. A surfactant is a compound that helps in mixing the matters (solid, liquid, and gas) with one another. It functions by decreasing the surface tension between the two matters. Primarily they are used to mix water with oil. After getting mixed, they help in washing the dirt away.

Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate is a mild surfactant as compared to surfactant as compared to Sodium Lauryl Sulfate in terms of irritation. It is used as one of the components in cosmetics and toiletry formulations. It acts as a surface mixing agent for foaming, wetting and dispersing.

If Kp = 0.15, which statement is true of the reaction mixture before any reaction occurs?
Fiesta28 [93]
The given sentence is part of a longer question.

I found this question with the same sentence. So, I will help you using this question:

For the reaction N2O4<span>(g) ⇄ 2NO</span>2(g), a reaction mixture at a certain temperature initially contains both N2O4 and NO2 in their standard states (meaning they are gases with a pressure of 1 atm<span>).  If </span>Kp = 0.15, which statement is true of the reaction mixture before any reaction occurs?


(a) Q = K<span>;   The reaction </span>is at equilibrium.
(b) Q < K<span>;   The reaction </span>will proceed to the right.
(c) Q > K<span>;   The reaction </span>will proceed to the left.

The answer is the option (c) Q > K<span>; The reaction will proceed to the </span>left, since Qp<span> = </span>1<span>, and 1 > 0.15.</span>
Explanation:

Kp is the equilibrium constant in term of the partial pressures of the gases.

Q is the reaction quotient. It is a measure of the progress of a chemical reaction.

The reaction quotient has the same form of the equilibrium constant but using the concentrations or partial pressures at any moment.

At equilibrium both Kp and Q are equal. Q = Kp

If Q < Kp then the reaction will go to the right (forward reaction) trying to reach the equilibrium,

If Q > Kp then the reaction will go to the left (reverse reaction) trying to reach the equilibrium.

Here, the state is that both pressures are 1 atm, so Q = (1)^2 / 1 = 1.

Since, Q = 1 and Kp = 0.15, Q > Kp and the reaction will proceed to the left.

a gas has a volume of 350 cubic centimeters at 740 mmHg. how many cubic centimeters will the gas occupy at a pressure of 900 mmH
Harrizon [31]

Answer: 287.8 cm3

Explanation:

Given that:

Initial volume of gas V1 = 350 cm3

Initial pressure of gas P1 = 740 mmHg

New volume V2 = ?

New pressure P2 = 900 mmHg

Since, pressure and volume are involved while temperature is constant, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

740 mmHg x 350 cm3 = 900mmHg x V2

V2 = (740 mmHg x 350 cm3) /900mmHg

V2 = 259000 mmHg cm3 / 900mmHg

V2 = 287.8 cm3

Thus, the gas will occupy 287.8 cubic centimeters at the new pressure.

In this experiment, we will be performing a titration with a buret. place the steps in order. 1. record the ph when 0.0 ml of na
77julia77 [94]

I am guessing that your solutions of HCl and of NaOH have approximately the same concentrations. Then the equivalence point will occur at pH 7 near 25 mL NaOH.

The steps are already in the correct order.

1. Record the pH when you have added 0 mL of NaOH to your beaker containing 25 mL of HCl and 25 mL of deionized water.

2. Record the pH of your partially neutralized HCl solution when you have added 5.00 mL of NaOH from the buret.

3. Record the pH of your partially neutralized HCl solution when you have added 10.00 mL, 15.00 mL and 20.00 mL of NaOH.

4. Record the NaOH of your partially neutralized HCl solution when you have added 21.00 mL, 22.00 mL, 23.00 mL and 24.00 mL of NaOH.

5. Add NaOH one drop at a time until you reach a pH of 7.00, then record the volume of NaOH added from the buret ( at about 25 mL).

6. Record the pH of your basic HCl-NaOH solution when you have added 26.00 mL, 27.00 mL, 28.00 mL, 29.00 mL and 30.00 mL of NaOH.

7. Record the pH of your basic HCl-NaOH solution when you have added 35.00 mL, 40.00 mL, 45.00 mL and 50.00 mL of NaOH from your 50mL buret.

Which list best represents the flow of stimuli information in the body?
Vlad1618 [11]
The flow of stimuli information in the body is from the receptors to sensory neuron (afferent neurons) to the interneurons then to the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) then is carried of by the motor neurons (efferent neurons) to the mucles involve.

Sensation to transduction to perception. Sensation is the ambiguous information which is received by the receptors or sensory organ henceforth, transduction occurs in the nerve cell protruding to the brain and is now called perception as the vague stimuli is interpreted and processed to be understood then is responded with the proper and apt response or reaction.

A 7.00-mL portion of 8.00 M stock solution is to be diluted to 0.800 M. What will be the final volume after dilution? Enter your
amm1812

Explanation:

The number of moles of solute present in liter of solution is defined as molarity.

Mathematically,         Molarity = \frac{\text{no. of moles}}{\text{Volume in liter}}

Also, when number of moles are equal in a solution then the formula will be as follows.

                     M_{1} \times V_{1} = M_{2} \times V_{2}

It is given that M_{1} is 8.00 M, V_{1} is 7.00 mL, and M_{2} is 0.80 M.

Hence, calculate the value of V_{2} using above formula as follows.

                    M_{1} \times V_{1} = M_{2} \times V_{2}

                 8.00 M \times 7.00 mL = 0.80 M \times V_{2}

                      V_{2} = \frac{56 M. mL}{0.80 M}

                                  = 70 ml

Thus, we can conclude that the volume after dilution is 70 ml.
