Answer:

d) Make it flexible  

Step-by-step explanation:

Raw hides dry out to form a hard material that can decay with an offensive smell when they become wet.

Tanning converts the protein of the raw hide into a stable material that will stay flexible and not decompose when it gets wet.

a) is <em>wrong</em>. The purpose of tanning is to soften the leather.

b) is <em>wrong</em>. You smooth the leather manually with fine sandpaper.

c) is <em>wrong</em>. Tanning does not impart water resistance. It prevents the leather from putrefying when it does get wet.

Answer:

MnO4⁻ (aq) + 8H⁺ (aq) + 5Fe³⁺ (aq) →Mn(aq)²⁺ + 4H2O (l) + 5Fe²⁺(aq)

Explanation:

a)

MnO4⁻ (aq) + 8H⁺ (aq) + 5e⁻ → Mn(aq)²⁺ + 4H2O (l)

b)

5Fe³⁺ (aq) +5e⁻ → 5Fe²⁺(aq)

c)

MnO4⁻ (aq) + 8H⁺ (aq) + 5Fe³⁺ (aq) →Mn(aq)²⁺ + 4H2O (l) + 5Fe²⁺(aq)

13) Find the mass, in grams, of 5.75 liters of N2.
faltersainse [42]
Molecular weight of N2
gram Atomic weight of N is 14 g.
gram Molecular weight = 14 g×2
= 28 g
Liter concepts
1 liter of gas always occupies 1 gram molecular weight .
Application of the concept
5.75 liter gives 0.257g


1 mole will occupy 28 g

0.257 will occupy 28 g × 0.257
= 7.196 g

The mass of the gas is 7.196 g.
