Answer:

Explanation:

A solid is characterized by structural rigidity and resistance to a force applied to the surface. Unlike a liquid, a solid object does not flow to take on the shape of its container, nor does it expand to fill the entire available volume like a gas. Solids molecules stay close to eachother maintaining its shape meaning it is in a ordered pattern.

3. What mass of copper could be deposited from a copper(II) Sulphate solution using a current of 5.0 A over 100 seconds? ( F =96

arsen [322]

Mass of copper : 0.165 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

5.0 A over 100 seconds

Required

Mass of copper

Solution

Faraday's law:

The mass of the substance formed at each electrode is proportional to the electric current flowing in the electrolysis

$\tt W=\dfrac{e.i.t}{96500}$

e = Ar / valence = eqivalent weight

i = current

t = time

W = weight

CuSO₄ ----> Cu²⁺ + SO₄²⁻

Cu ----> Cu²⁺ + 2e

e = Ar/2

= 63,5/2 = 31,75

$\tt W=\dfrac{31.75\times 5\times 100}{96500}=0.165~g$

Balance the following redox equation in acidic solution using the smallest integers possible and select the correct coefficient

romanna [79]

Answer:

Coefficient of $H^{+}(aq)$ is more than 4

Explanation:

Oxidation: $Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Sn^{4+}(aq)$

Balance charge: $Sn^{2+}(aq)-2e^{-}\rightarrow Sn^{4+}(aq)$ ......(1)

Reduction: $Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Cr^{3+}(aq)$

Balance Cr: $Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)$
Balance O and H in acidic medium: $Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)+14H^{+}(aq)\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_{2}O(l)$
Balance charge: $Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)+14H^{+}(aq)+6e^{-}\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_{2}O(l)$ .......(2)

$[3\times Equation-(1)]+Equation(2)$ gives balanced equation:

$3Sn^{2+}(aq)+Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)+14H^{+}(aq)\rightarrow 3Sn^{4+}(aq)+2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_{2}O(l)$

So coefficient of $H^{+}(aq)$ is more than 4

Name the bonds found between amino acids in a polypeptide chain

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Primary Structure: Amino Acids Are Linked by Peptide Bonds to Form Polypeptide Chains. Proteins are linear polymers formed by linking the α-carboxyl group of one amino acid to the α-amino group of another amino acid with a peptide bond (also called an amide bond).
