The balanced equation below represents the decomposition of potassium chlorate.

1 answer:

6 0

The oxidation number of chlorine in the reactant can be determined by K ion and O ion. K ion is +1 and O ion is -2. And the Cl is +5. The gas has the greatest entropy and the solid has the least. In the production, there are solid and gas. So it has more entropy than the reactants with solid only.

Proteins have a variety of functions within a living cell. Describe at least three of the possible functions of proteins, and ex

prisoha [69]

Three of the functions of proteins are as antibodies, as enzymes and as messengers. As antibodies, they protect the cells from diseases ie they fight diseases. As enzymes, they regulate the chemical reactions within cells, and thirdly they transmit signals as messengers such as hormones do in co-ordinating biological processes. Proteins are so diverse because of their unique 3-D structures which their polymers form from the 20 amino acids available as their building blocks.

in an experiment 3.425g of lead oxide was reduced to form 3.105g of lead the empirical formula of the lead oxide is?

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Pb3O4

Explanation:

According to this question, 3.425g of lead oxide was reduced to form 3.105g of lead in an experiment. Since lead oxide contains both lead (Pb) and oxygen (O) element,

Mass of lead oxide = 3.425g

Mass of lead = 3.105g

Mass of oxygen = (3.425g - 3.105g) = 0.320g

Next, we convert each mass value to mole by dividing by respective molar mass

Pb = 3.105g ÷ 207.2 = 0.0149mol

O = 0.320g ÷ 16 = 0.02mol

Next, we divide each mole value by the smallest (0.0149)

Pb = 0.0149mol ÷ 0.0149mol = 1

O = 0.02mol ÷ 0.0149mol = 1.342

Multiply each ratio value by 3 to get:

Pb = 1 × 3 = 3

O = 1.342 × 3 = 4.026

The whole number ratio, approximately, of Pb and O is 3:4, hence, their empirical formula is Pb3O4.
