The main points of Dalton's atomic theory, as it eventually developed, are: Elements are made of extremely small particles called atoms. Atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass and other properties; atoms of different elements differ in size, mass and other properties.

According to Dalton's atomic theory :

All matter is made up of atoms which are indivisible and indestructible.
Atoms of the same element have the same property and same mass.
Compounds are made up of atoms of different elements.
Atoms are rearranged in a chemical reaction.

A metallurgist is making an alloy that consists of 325 grams of chromium (Cr) and 2.5 kg of iron (Fe). Find the total mass of th

Darya [45]

Answer:- Mass of the alloy is 2.8 kg.

Solution:- Mass of Cr in the alloy is 325 g and mass of Fe in the alloy is 2.5 kg. Mass of alloy would be the sum of masses of constituent metals.

Masses of the metals are not in the same units. So, we need to make the units equal. The want answer in kg so let's convert mass of Cr from g to kg.

Since, 1000 g = 1 kg

So, $325g\frac{1kg}{1000g}$

= 0.325 kg

Mass of alloy = mass of Cr + mass of Fe

mass of alloy = 0.325 kg + 2.5 kg = 2.825 kg

If we consider significant figures then as per the rules, the answer should not have more than one decimal place.

So, 2.825 kg is round off to 2.8 kg and hence the mass of the alloy is 2.8 kg.

Hemoglobin in your blood does not use elemental iron. It uses iron in the form of Fe2+(aq).

valina [46]

Explanation:

Balanced chemical reaction equation will be as follows.

$2Fe^{2+}(aq) + 2H^{+}(aq) \rightleftharpoons 2Fe^{3+}(aq) + H_{2}(g)$

In human body, the neutral iron changes into $Fe^{2+}$ (aq) cation. There will be an oxidation-half reaction and a reduction-half reaction. Equations for this reaction are as follows.

Oxidation: 2Fe^{2+}(aq) \rightleftharpoons 2Fe^{3+}(aq) + 2e^{-}[/tex] .... (1)

Reduction: $2H^{+}(aq) + 2e^{-} \rightleftharpoons H_{2}(g)$ ...... (2)

On adding both equation (1) and (2), the overall reaction equation will be as follows.

$2Fe^{2+}(aq) + 2H^{+}(aq) \rightleftharpoons 2Fe^{3+}(aq) + H_{2}(g)$

Therefore, neutral iron is a part of Heme - b group of Hemoglobin and in an aqueous solution it dissolutes as a part of Heme group. Hence, then it becomes an $Fe^{2+}$ cation.
