Answer:

Plates

Explanation:

The Earth's crust is broken up into sections called plates. Tectonic plates are on the mantle which allow them to move.

The compound cisplatin, pt(nh3)2cl2 , has been studied extensively as an antitumor agent.

Nataliya [291]

a. Elemental percent composition is the mass percent of each element in the compound.

The formula for mass elemental percent composition = $\frac{mass of element}{mass of compound}$ (1)

The molecular formula of cisplatin is $Pt(NH_3)_2Cl_2$ .

The atomic weight of the elements in cisplatin is:

Platinum, $Pt = 195.084 u$

Nitrogen, $N = 14.0067 u$

Hydrogen, $H = 1 u$

Chlorine, $Cl = 35.453 u$

The molar mass of $Pt(NH_3)_2Cl_2$ = $195.084+ (2\times 14.0067)+(6\times 1)+(2\times 35.453)$ = $300.00 g/mol$

The mass of each element calculated using formula (1):

- Platinum, $Pt$ %

$\frac{195.084}{300.00} \times 100 = 65.23$ %.

- Nitrogen, $N$ %

$\frac{2\times 14.0067}{300.00} \times 100 = 9.34$ %

- Hydrogen, $H$ %

$\frac{6\times 1}{300.00} \times 100 = 2.0$ %

- Chlorine, $Cl$ %

$\frac{2\times 35.453}{300.00} \times 100 = 23.63$ %

b. The given reaction of cisplatin is:

$K_2PtCl_4(aq)+2NH_3(aq)\rightarrow Pt(NH_3)_2Cl_2(s)+2KCl(aq)$

According to the balanced reaction, 1 mole of $K_2PtCl_4$ gives 1 mole of $Pt(NH_3)_2Cl_2$ .

Now, calculating the number of moles of $K_2PtCl_4$ in 100.0 g.

Number of moles = $\frac{given mass}{Molar mass}$

Molar mass of $K_2PtCl_4$ = $2\times 39.0983+195.084+4\times 35.453 = 415.093 g/mol$

Number of moles of $K_2PtCl_4$ = $\frac{100 g}{415.093 g/mol} = 0.241 mole$ .

Since, 1 mole of $K_2PtCl_4$ gives 1 mole of $Pt(NH_3)_2Cl_2$ . Therefore, mass of cisplatin is:

$0.241 mole\times 300 g/mol = 72.3 g$

For mass of $KCl$ :

Molar mass of $KCl$ = $39.0983 + 35.453 = 74.55 g/mol$

Since, 1 mole of $K_2PtCl_4$ gives 2 mole of $KCl$ . Therefore, mass of $KCl$ is:

$0.241 mole\times 74.55 g/mol\times 2 = 35.93 g$

What protects the Earth from meteorites and the sun's rays? (4 points)

inna [77]

I believe the answer is D. The atmosphere, different layers of the atmosphere can help in different ways! The stratosphere helps protect us from the sun's rays; The Mesophere is what helps protect us from meteorites! It's so cold that they burn up in that area.

For Mn3+, write an equation that shows how the cation acts as an acid.

Mkey [24]

An acid is a compound which will give H+ ions or H3O^+ ions

the reaction will be

$[Mn(H_{2}O )_{6} ^{+3} +H_{2}O --> [MnOH(H_{2}O)_{5}]^{+2} + H_{3}O^{+}$

Thus as there is evolution of H_{3}O^{+} the Mn+3 is an acid
