What is the chemical formula for borax

Classify the following as either solutions or colloids. If a colloid, name the type of colloid and identify both the dispersed a

aev [14]

Answer:

a. glucose in water( solution)

b. smoke in air (colloids)

c. carbon dioxide in air (solution)

d. milk( colloids)

Explanation:

A solution is said to be formed when a solute dissolves in a solvent to form a homogeneous mixture. The solute particles are less than 10^-9m in size. Familiar solutions are those where the solute are dissolved in a liquid solvent. When the liquid water, the solution is known as an aqueous solution. A typical example is (glucose in water). In some other cases, the apparent solution of a solute in a solvent is accompanied by a chemical reaction and this is often known as a chemical reaction. A typical example is (carbon dioxide in air).

Colloids are also known as false solutions. Here, the individual solute particles are larger than the particles of the true solution, but not large enough to be seen by the naked eye. When a light beam is placed beside a beaker containing a colloid, the light rays of the beam can be clearly seen. This shows that it exhibits the Tyndall effect while a solution dosent exhibit such.

In a colloid, the liquid solvent is more appropriately know as the DISPERSION medium while the solid solute particles constitute the DISPERSED substance. This can either be solid, liquid or gas.

For example:

--> smoke in air : Dispersion medium is gas while the dispersed substance is solid.

--> milk: Dispersion medium is liquid while the dispersed substance is liquid.

Which of the following actions would cause the volume of the chamber below to increase to 36.0 L?

Orlov [11]

Answer:

Option C. Triple the number of moles

Explanation:

From the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

Where:

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of mole

R is the gas constant

T is the absolute temperature.

Making V the subject of the above equation, we have:

PV = nRT

Divide both side by P

V = nRT / P

Thus, we can say that the volume (V) is directly proportional to both the number of mole (n) and absolute temperature (T) and inversely proportional to the pressure (P). This implies that and increase in either the number of mole, the absolute temperature and a decrease in the presence will cause the volume to increase.

Thus, the correct option is option C triple the number of moles. This can further be seen as illustrated below:

Initial volume (V1) = 12 L

Initial mole (n1) = 0.5 mole

Final mole (n2) = triple the initial mole = 3 × 0.5 = 1.5 mole

Final volume (V2) =?

From:

V = nRT / P, keeping T and P constant, we have:

V1/n1 = V2/n2

12/0.5 = V2/1.5

24 = V2/1.5

Cross multiply

V2 = 24 × 1.5

V2 = 36 L.

Thus Option C gives the correct answer to the question.

Complete the reaction, which is part of the electron transport chain. The abbreviation FMN represents flavin mononucleotide. Use

Margarita [4]

Answer:

1. NADH + H⁺ + FMN + Q ⟶ NAD⁺ + FMN + QH₂

2. The reactant that is reduced is Q

3. The charge on iron on the right side is +2, Fe²⁺

Explanation:

NADH + H⁺ + FMN + Q ⟶ NAD⁺ + FMN + QH₂

The reaction above is catalysed by NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex 1), which transfers a hydride ion from NADH to FMN, from which two electrons pass through a series of of Fe-S centers to the iron-sulfur protein N-2. Electron transfer from N-2 to Ubiquinone forms QH₂

The species in a reaction which gains hydrogen irons is reduced, Therefore, the reactant that is reduced is Q, ubiquinone to form QH₂, ubiquinol.

To determine the oxidation number of iron on the right side of the reaction below,

QH2 + 2cyt c ( Fe3+) ⟶ Q + 2cyt c(Fex) + 2H^+

Sum of charges on the left side = Sum of charges on the right side

Sum of charges on the left side = 2 *+3 = +6

Therefore 2 * x + 2= 6

2x = 6 -2 = 4

x = 4/

x = 2

Therefore the charge on iron on the right side is +2, Fe²⁺

Fe2O3(s)+3C(s)→2Fe(s)+3CO(g) how many grams of CO are produced when 32.0 grams of C react

krok68 [10]

Answer:

74.6 g

Explanation:

The computation of the number of grams produced at the time when 32.0 grams of C react is shown below:

As we know that

But before that we need to find out the moles of c i.e carbon which is

$= \frac{Grams }{C\ molar\ mass}$

$= \frac{32\ grams}{12.0107 g/mol}$

= 2.66 mol

As we know that

1 mol of C produces 1 mol of CO

So, for 2.66 mol, the mass of CO is

$= 2.66 \times28.0101 g/mol$

= 74.6 g

Basically we applied the above equation so that we can reach to the answer

What is the percent composition of phosphoric acid (H3PO4)?

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

H3PO4 Mol mass..

= (3 x H1 = 3) + (1 x P31 = 31) + (4 x O16 = 64). = 98g/mol.

a)..Hydrogen: = 3 / 98 = 0.0306 x 100% = 3.06%.

b)..Phosphorus = 31/98 = 0.3162 x 100% = 31.63%.

c)..Oxygen = 64/98 = 0.6531 x 100% = 65.31%.

(Total = 100% H3PO4).

Explanation:

Find the molar mass of all the elements in the compound in grams per mole.

Find the molecular mass of the entire compound.

Divide the component's molar mass by the entire molecular mass.

You will now have a number between 0 and 1. Multiply it by 100% to get percent composition.
