3 0

Answer:

K₂EDTA

Explanation:

The additive in the lavender tube is potassium dihydrogen ethylenediaminetetraacetate (K₂EDTA).

EDTA is a powerful chelating agent, that is, it binds strongly to metal cations.

Its main function in hematology labs is to prevent the blood from clotting by binding the Ca²⁺ ions.

What mass of silver oxide, Ag2O is required to produce 25.0 g of silver sulfadiazine, AgC10H9N4SO2, from the reaction of silver
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

8.1107 g

Explanation:

The given reaction:

2C_{10}H_{10}N_4SO_2+Ag_2O\rightarrow 2AgC_{10}H_9N_4SO_2+H_2O

Given that:

Mass of silver sulfadiazine = 25.0 g

Molar mass of silver sulfadiazine = 357.14 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

Moles= \frac{25.0\ g}{357.14\ g/mol}

Moles= 0.07\ mol

From the reaction,

2 moles of silver sulfadiazine are formed from 1 mole of silver oxide

So,

1 mole of silver sulfadiazine are formed from 1/2 mole of silver oxide

0.07 mole of silver sulfadiazine are formed from 1/2*0.07 mole of silver oxide

Moles of silver oxide = 0.035 moles

Molar mass  of silver oxide = 231.735 g/mol

Mass = Moles * Molar mass = 0.035 moles * 231.735 g/mol = 8.1107 g

Acellus<br> How many grams of strontium<br> (Sr, 87.62 g/mol) are in 2.92<br> moles of strontium?
saul85 [17]

Answer:

There are 255, 85 grams of Strontium in 2,92 moles.

Explanation:

We perform a simple rule of three to calculate the number of grams, knowing that one mole of Sr weights 87, 62 grams:

1 mol Sr---------87, 62 grams

2,92 mol Sr-----x=(2,92 mol Sr x-87, 62 grams)/1 mol Sr= 255,8504 grams

The proportion of dissolved substances in seawater is usually expressed in
LiRa [457]

Answer:

The proportion of dissolved substances in seawater is usually expressed in ppm, ppb or ppt

Explanation:

The concentration of very diluted solutions should be expressed in parts per million, billion or trillion.

ppm = mass from the solute . 10⁶ / mass or volume of the solution

ppb = mass from the solute . 10⁹ / mass or volume of the solution

ppt = mass from the solute . 10¹² / mass or volume of the solution

ppm = mg/kg, μg/g, μg/mL → These are the units

ppb = ng/g

ppt = pg/g

How many moles of water are produced if 5.43 mol PbO2 are consumed?<br><br> ANSWER: 10.9
Arada [10]

Answer: 10.9 mol.

Explanation:

  • To understand how to solve this problem, we must mention the reaction equation where water produced from PbO₂.

Pb + PbO₂ + 2H₂SO₄ → 2PbSO₄ + 2H₂O

  • Now, it is a stichiometric oriented problem, that 1 mole of PbO₂ produces 2 moles of H₂O.

Using cross multiplication:

1.0 mole of PbO₂ → 2.0 moles of H₂O

5.43 moles of PbO₂ → ??? moles of water

The moles of water produced = (5.43 x 2.0) = 10.86 moles ≅ 10.9 moles.
