Answer: Batteries and Food

Explanation:

On the batteries that we use for example for a watch in the kitchen, occurs a chemistry reaction, called redox between Zn and MnO2. The Zn is oxidized (in the anode) and the MnO2 is reduced (in the cathode). In the oxidation, the athom loses electrons and in the reduction the opposites.

Regarding the chemical reactions that occur in the food that we consume, the hydrolisis that occurs in the stomach. The hydrochloric acid that is secreted in the stomach allows the activation of an enzyme, pepsinogen, which hydrolyzes the proteins present in the food consumed. That is, it hydrolyzes the peptide bonds of the proteins, which is between an amino and carboxyl bond of each amino acid that makes them up.

14. How many grams of NaCl are contained in 0.350 kg of a

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

4.87g

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Mass of solution = 0.35kg

Molality = 0.238 m

Mass of NaCl =..?

Step 2:

Determination of the number of mole of NaCl in the solution.

Molality of a solution is simply defined as the mole of solute per unit kg of the solvent. It is given as:

Molality = mol of solute /mass of solvent (kg)

With the above formula, we calculate the mole of NaCl present in the solution as follow:

Molality = mol of solute /mass of solvent (kg)

0.238 = mol of NaCl /0.35

Cross multiply

mol of NaCl = 0.238 x 0.35

mol of NaCl = 0.0833 mol

Step 3:

Determination of the mass of NaCl in 0.0833 mol of NaCl.

This is illustrated below:

Number of mole NaCl = 0.0833 mol

Molar Mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

Mass of NaCl =..?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of NaCl = 0.0833 x 58.5

Mass of NaCl = 4.87g

Therefore, 4.87g of NaCl is contained in the solution.

Find the element that makes plumbing pipes. is it a metal nonmetal or metalloid

evablogger [386]

Assuming the plumbing pipe is PVC, the answer would be nonmetal

PVC or polyvinyl chloride has a chemical formula of (C2H3Cl)n. From the element, we can see that the polyvinyl chloride is made from carbon, hydrogen, and chloride. There are no elements that belong to the metal group or metalloid group, so the plumbing pipe would be nonmetal.
