The correct molecular formula and chemical name of compound that contain 3 atom of fluorine and one atom of Boron is

BF3 - Boron trifluoride

Explanation

<h3><u>writing the formula</u></h3>

when writing the chemical formula of a compound, the cation symbol is written first followed by anion name. Boron (B) is the cation hence its symbol is written first followed by fluorine (f)- the anion). since there are three atoms of fluorine three is written at the end of F hence

<h3><u>naming the chemical compound</u></h3>

while naming the chemical compound again the cation is named first then anion. The ending of the second name ( fluorine) is replaced with ide, hence the name fluoride. Prefix tri is used to show that the number of fluoride are three, hence the name boron trifluoride

Which way does current flow in a galvanic cell?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

In a galvanic cell, the flow of electrons will be from the anode to cathode through the circuit .

Whether a cell is an electrolysis cell (non-spontaneous chemistry driven by forcing electricity from an external energy source) or a galvanic cell (spontaneous chemistry driving electricity), will determine the charge of the anode and the cathode. Depending on where the electrons encounter resistance and find it difficult to pass, a negative charge may emerge. Therefore, you cannot determine the direction of the current just on the charge on the electrode.

Oxidation and reduction always take place at the anode and cathode, respectively.

An element undergoes oxidation when it surrenders one or more electrons to become more positively charged. These electrons leave the chemicals in any type of cell and travel to the anode, where they enter the external circuit.

An element picks up an electron during reduction to become more negatively charged (less positive, lower oxidation state). These electrons are captured from the external circuit at the cathode in both types of cells.

Therefore, no matter what kind of cell you are dealing with, the oxidizing chemicals at the anode transfer the electrons to the external circuit; these electrons then move through the circuit from the anode to the cathode, where they are captured by the reducing chemicals. The electrons always go from the anode to the cathode via the external circuit.

If an individual is eating a diet in which 25% of their ATP production is a result of utilizing carbohydrates, 50% of their ATP

NISA [10]

Answer:

Oxidative phosphorylation proceeds with the formation of energy laden molecules i.e; carbondioxide and water.

Therefore, Total CO₂ production is directly related to VCO₂ = R x VO₂

where, R is the respiratory quotient varing among 0.7 to 1.0 according to the energy intake (ATP) ie 0.25 of the total diet consumed .

VO₂ is, as mentioned above arterial venous oxygen difference = 6.2ml/dl

therefore, VCO₂ = 0.25 x 6.2

= 1.55 ml/dl

ie; VO₂ : VCO₂ = 6.2 : 1.55.

Benzene has a specific gravity of 0.88. if it was spilled in a river what would it do?

Gelneren [198K]

As we know,
Density of Benzene = 876 Kg/m³
And,
Density of Water = 997 Kg/m³
So,
Specific Gravity is calculated as,

Specific Gravity = Density of Benzene / Density of Water

Specific Gravity = 876 Kg/m³ / 997 Kg/m³

Specific Gravity = 0.878

Every object having specific gravity less than 1 will float on water and if value is greater than 1 then it will sink.

Benzene being non-polar in nature does not mix with water and due to less density it will float on the surface of water.

timurjin [86]

Answer:

1. The new volume is 14L

2. The volume decreased

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question.

Initial Volume (V1) = 14.2 L

Initial pressure (P1) = 102.5 kPa

Initial temperature (T1) = 33°C

Final pressure (P2) = 100.9 kPa

Final temperature (T2) = 24°C.

Final volume (V2) =?

Step 2:

Conversion of celsius temperature to Kelvin temperature. This is illustrated below:

K = °C + 273

T1 = 33°C = 33°C + 273 = 306K

T2 = 24°C = 24°C + 273 = 297K

Step 3:

Determination of the new volume.

Applying the general gas equation P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2, the new volume can be obtain as follow:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

102.5 x 14.2/306 = 100.9 x V2/297

Cross multiply to express in linear form as shown below:

306 x 100.9 x V2 = 102.5 x14.2 x297

Divide both side by 306 x 100.9

V2 = (102.5x14.2x297)/(306 x 100.9)

V2 = 14 L

The new volume is 14 L.

Step 4:

Determination of the change in volume. This is illustrated below

Final volume (V2) = 14 L

Initial volume (V1) = 14.2 L

Change in volume (ΔV) =?

Change in volume (ΔV) = Final volume (V2) - Initial volume (V1)

ΔV = V2 - V1

ΔV = 14 - 14.2

ΔV = - 0.2L

Since the change in volume is negative, it means there is a decrease in the volume.
