6 0

The amount of matter present in an object is said to be its mass. The standard SI unit of mass is kg that is a kilogram.

The other units are (g) grams, ton (t), atomic mass unit (u) etc. which are interconvertible.

The name of the mass that is 10^{-6} smaller than a gram is microgram. As, 1 \mu g = 10^{-6} g.

Write a net ionic equation to show that acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), hc9h7o4, behaves as a brønsted-lowry acid in water.
Thepotemich [5.8K]
By definition, Bronsted-Lowry acid is a proton donor in the acid-base neutralization reaction. When a weak acid like acetylsalicylic acid is reacted with water, the water here acts as the Bronsted-Lowry base. This is possible because water has properties of amphoterism - can act as an acid or base. In this case, acetylsalicylic acid would have to donate its H+ atom to water, so that it would yield a hydronium ion, H₃O⁺. The complete net ionic reaction is shown in the picture.

So, in the reaction, the products yield are the acetylsalicylate ion and the hydronium ion.

Which is the correct name for p2o5? phosphorus dioxide phosphorus pentoxide diphosphorus pentoxide diphosphorus hexaoxide
Elenna [48]

Correct option:

The correct name for P_{2}O_{5}  is diphosphorus pentoxide.

Why P_{2}O_{5} is called diphosphorus pentoxide?

P_{2}O_{5} is commonly known as diphosphorus pentoxide.

Phosphorus pentoxide has an intriguing property in that P_{2}O_{5} is actually its empirical formula, whereas P_{4}O_{10} is its actual molecular formula.

However, the name of the chemical was obtained from its empirical formula rather than from its molecular formula. The official name for this substance is diphosphorus pentoxide.

Oxygen-containing binary compounds have "oxide" as their "last name." Phosphorus is the "first name."

We list each atom's numbers below:

The di- and Penta- prefixes are used to indicate the presence of two and five oxygen atoms, respectively, in the molecule.

A candle slowly burns until the last bit of wax and wick are gone. The two reactants in this chemical reaction are the wick and
Aleonysh [2.5K]

The component of the candle burning in the surrounding has been the oxygen in the air.

The burning of candle wax and wick has been the chemical reaction. It has been based on the reaction of wick with the atmospheric oxygen, resulting in the formulation of the wax burning.

<h3>Chemical reaction of burning of wax</h3>

The wax has been vaporizes by the heat of the flame, that has been resulted by the burning. The wick has been able to react with the oxygen and form the byproducts that helps in flame burning.

The end products have been wick and oxygen as the wax has been consumed in the reaction. The air in the surrounding has oxygen as the part of the system, as it has been involved in the reaction.

Under conditions of "feasting", the body favors oxidation/utilization of which source for energy production
mezya [45]
During feasting, there is an increase in the supply of carbohydrates, fats and proteins in the body. Since these macronutrients are in excess, carbohydrates and proteins are utilized or oxidized as a source for energy production. On the otherhand, fats are accumulated as the rate of oxidation of this source does not increase during feasting.

What do plants do that requires Energy?
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Photosynthesis

Explanation:

Photosynthesis uses energy from light to convert water and carbon dioxide molecules into glucose (sugar molecule) and oxygen. The oxygen is released, or “exhaled”, from leaves while the energy contained within glucose molecules is used throughout the plant for growth, flower formation, and fruit development.
