Carboplatin (C6H12N2O4Pt) is a platinum-containing compound that is used to treat certain forms of cancer. This compound contain

s 52.5% platinum. If the price for platinum is $1047/ troy ounce, what is the cost of the platinum in 2.00 g of this compound? A troy ounce is equal to 480 grains, and one grain is equal to 64.8 mg.

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  $ 35.6

Explanation:

C₆H₁₂N₂O₄Pt

Platinum = 52.5 %

Price = $1047 / troy ounce

cost of platinum = ? of 2 g

1 troy ounce = 480 grains

1 grain = 64.8 mg

Process

Get 52.5 % of 2 g

                               2 g -----------------  100 %

                               x     -----------------  52.5%

                              x = (52.5 x 2) / 100

                              x = 1.05 g

                               1 g --------------------- 1000 mg

                               1.05 g ----------------   x

                               x = 1050 mg of Pt

                               1 grain ---------------- 64.8 mg

                              x            ---------------  1050 mg

                              x = 16.2 grains

                              480 grains ---------------- 1 troy ounce

                              16.2 grains ----------------   x

                               x = (16.2 x 1) / 480

                                x = 0.034 troy ounce

                              $ 1047 ------------------  1 troy ounce

                                x        -------------------  0.034

                                x = (0,034 x 1047) / 1

                                x = $ 35.6

Sometimes Combination reaction takes place sometimes decomposition and sometime replacement.. Can someone say me the conditions
Rina8888 [55]

Whenever any substance goes under chemical change so any of the reaction will happen either both or multiple compounds will combine to produce combination reaction either one compound will decompose itself into 2 or more compounds or elements and last one is replacement reaction the either reaction is not even going to combination nor decomposition, So when a reaction like that happens it must replacement reaction.

Now the question is what's the condition required for it, so basically a chemical reaction when takes place it depends upon several factor on the basis of which we conclude products. The factors are Temperature,catalyst,reagents, either what is the mechanism of reaction, stability of reactants and stability of products and alot more.

During reaction sometimes gas forms and sometimes not yea and well that also depends on the chemical reactivity and stability of product sometimes product found itself most stable releasing the gas evolving so it's been done itself and sometimes we add catalyst and adjust the reaction to extract that gas and get desirable product manually.

I wrote all i know if sorry if this is not what you're looking for :(

While camping you light a small campfire, initiating the combustion of wood to produce heat and
Ksju [112]

Answer:

A. It is exothermic

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction in which a substance combines with oxygen present in air to produce carbon (iv) oxide and water as well release  heat and light energy.Combustion is an exothermic process.

An exothermic reaction releases energy in the form of heat to the surroundings. The energy required to break bonds in the reactants is less than the energy required to form new bonds in the products in an exothermic reaction.

From the given options;

A. It is exothermic is determinable since the reaction is a combustion reaction

B. The bond making energy is more than 600 kJ is not certain because the mass of the wood being burnt is not given. Also, wood is not composed of a specific element that would be taking part in the reaction, rather it is composed of various substances.

C. It is endothermic. is wrong because combustion of wood is exothermic.

D. The bond breaking energy is more than 600 kJ is not certain because the mass of the wood being burnt is not given. Also, wood is not composed of a specific element that would be taking part in the reaction, rather is composed of many substances.
