An example of a heterogeneous catalyst is a catalytic converter. A catalytic converter is an emissions control device that converts toxic pollutants in exhaust gas to less toxic pollutants by catalyzing a redox reaction (oxydation or reduction).

Answer:

catalytic converter

Explanation:

A heterogeneous catalyst is one that has a phase different from the reactant molecules. A catalyst speeds up a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy required to start the reaction. But a catalyst does not undergo any change in the chemical process. Catalysts in a catalytic converter are metallic palladium or platinum that react with the hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide from the exhausts of a car to form carbon dioxide and water.

Cellulose could provide an abundant and cheap form of glucose for humans. Why is cellulose not a source of nutrients for humans?
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Option (c).

Explanation:

Cellulose is one of the most important carbohydrate of the plant that provide structural framework to the plant cells. Cellulose is made of the monomer of the glucose that are linked through the beta glycosidic linkages.

Although cellulose contains large number of glucose but it cannot be used as the nutrient source for humans. Humans and other vertebrates lacks the enzyme cellulase that is required for the digestion of cellulose. Cellulose cannot be broken down in the human body.

Thus, the correct answer is option (c).

Given that the molar mass of acetic acid is 60.0 grams and the density of the vinegar solution is 1.01 grams per milliliter dete
ladessa [460]
If the grams of acetic acid is given, we can use this to calculate for the mass percent acetic acid in the vinegar. 

The formula is:

%acetic acid = (grams of acetic acid in vinegar)/ grams of vinegar x 100%

Based on the balanced chemical equation for the preparation of malachite, what is the composition of the bubbles formed when sod
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Carbon Dioxide = CO2

Explanation:

The synthesis of Malachite is seen in the chemical formula:

CuSO 4 . 5H2O(aq) + 2NaCO3(aq) --> CuCO 3 Cu(OH) 2 (s) + 2Na 2 SO 4 (aq) + CO 2 (g) + 9H 2 O(l)

The bubbles mentioned in the question hints that our interest is the compounds in their gseous phase  (g).

Upon examining the chemical equation, only CO2 is in the gaseous state and hence the only one that can be formed as bubbles,

A student placed 2 drops of an unknown sample in a test tube and added 2 mL of ethanol to the test tube while mixing gently. The
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

2-propanol

Explanation:

From the given information

2 drops of an unknown sample were said to be placed in a test tube followed by the addition of 2 ml of ethanol then gentle mixing. They then initiate a further addition of  2 drops of potassium permanganate reagent (KMNO₄) to the test tube and mixed the contents of the test tube thoroughly. After adding 2 drops of potassium permanganate reagent, the reagent oxidizes the secondary alcohols(2-propanol) to ketone(i.e acetone) and no further reaction will take place since there are no reactive C-H bonds left. The diagram attached below shows how the reaction proceeds.

The stock concentration of NaOH is 0.5M. 0.5M = 0.500mol/1.0L.
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:a) 0.1 mole. b) 4g. c) 2% d)  196 mL

Explanation: in 200mL , 0.1mole

mw NaOH = 40g/mol —> 4g in 0.1 mole

4g in 200mL so 2g in 100mL

density NaOH = 1g/mL so if 4g in 200 mL,  4mL , 196 mL water
