The first step is to collect as many observations as possible about the problem you are trying to examine... if it could be proven wrong,then you have formed a hypothesis!

In a single displacement reaction between Sodium Phosphate and Barium, how much of each product (in grams) will be formed from 1

mixer [17]

Answer:

14.6 g of barium phosphate

3.35 g of sodium metal

Explanation:

2Na3PO4(aq) + 3Ba(s) -------> Ba3(PO4)2(aq) + 6Na(s)

The first step in any such reaction is to but down the balanced reaction equation according to the stoichiometry of the reaction.

The two products formed are barium phosphate and sodium metal.

Number of moles of barium corresponding to 10.0g of barium = mass of barium/ molar mass of barium

Molar mass of barium = 137.327 g

Number of moles of barium = 10/137.327

Number of moles of barium = 0.0728 moles

For barium phosphate;

3 moles of barium yields 1 mole of barium phosphate

0.0728 moles yields 0.0728 moles × 1/3 = 0.0243 moles of barium phosphate

Molar mass of barium phosphate = 601.93 g/mol

Therefore mass of barium phosphate = 0.0243 moles × 601.93 g/mol = 14.6 g of barium phosphate

For sodium metal

3 moles of barium yields 6 moles of sodium metal

0.0728 moles of barium yields 0.0728 × 6 / 3 = 0.1456 moles of sodium

Molar mass of sodium metal= 23 gmol-1

Mass of sodium metal= 0.1456g × 23 gmol-1 = 3.35 g of sodium metal

CO(g)+2H2(g)⇌CH3OH(g) A reaction mixture in a 5.23-L flask at a certain temperature initially contains 27.2 g CO and 2.36 g H2.

irga5000 [103]

Answer: 5.70M

Explanation:

Molar mass of CO = 28.01 g/mol

Molar mass of H2 = 2.02 g/mol

Molar mass of CH3OH = 32.05 g/mol.

To determine the amount of each compound in the reaction mixture we use the formula.

Amount in mol = reacting mass/molar mass.

Inputing the given values we have,

26.6 g CO x (1 mol / 28.01 g ) = 0.9496608354 mol of CO.

To calculate the concentration of CO we use C=n/v, where n=amount and v= volume of CO.

Inputing the values in the formula

[CO] = 0.9496608354 mol CO / 5.23 L = 0.18158 M CO

Repeating thesame procedure for H

Amount of H=2.36 g H2 x ( 1 mol / 2.02 g ) = 1.168316832 mol of H2

Concentration of H2 in the mixture

[H2] = 1.168316832 mol H2 / 5.23 L = 0.223388 M of H2

Amount of CH3OH is determine similarly using rmass/molar mass

8.66 CH3OH x (1 mol / 32.05 g ) = 0.2702028081 mol of CH3OH

Concentration of

[CH3OH] = 0.2702028081 mol CH3OH/ 5.23 L = 0.051664 M CH3OH

Now equilibrium constant is determined by

Kc = [CH3OH] / [CO] [H2]^2

=0.051664/0.18158×0.223388×0.223388.

Select the true statements about protein secondary structure.

netineya [11]

Answer:

The α‑helix is held together by hydrogen bonds between the amide N−H and C=O groups.

Disulfide bonds stabilize secondary structure.

Explanation:

Proteins have primary, secondary, tertiary and quartinary structures.

The secondary structure of a protein is the regular, recurring sequence of amino acid in a polypeptide chain. Secondary structure of proteins give rise to the folding observed in the structure of a protein.

The major secondary structures of a protein are α-helices and β-structures.
