Answer:

b. 4

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as:

   C₃H₈   +   O₂     →    CO₂   +  H₂O

To solve this problem, we employ a mathematical approach.

Now use coefficient a, b, c and d as the numbers that will balance the expression:

            aC₃H₈   +   bO₂     →    cCO₂   +  dH₂O

Conserving C: 3a  = c  

                   H:  8a  = 2d

                    O: 2b  = 2c + d

let a  = 1, c  = 3, d  = 4 , b  = 5

 The balanced reaction expression is:

            C₃H₈   +   5O₂     →    3CO₂   +  4H₂O

A solution contains 0.140 mol KCl in 2.100 L water. What is the concentration of KCl in g/L?
viva [34]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

≈ 4.95 g/L

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

The molar mass of KCl = 74.5 g/mole

Therefore; 0.140 moles will be equivalent to ;

 = 0.140 moles × 74.5 g/mole

 = 10.43 g

Concentration in g/L

   = mass in g/volume in L

   = 10.43/2.1

   =  4.9667

<h3>   <u> ≈ 4.95 g/L</u></h3>

1. How is the genome like a stack of papers?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Except for mature red blood cells, all human cells contain a complete genome. DNA in the human genome is arranged into 24 distinct chromosomes—physically separate molecules that range in length from about 50 mil- lion to 250 million base pairs.

How many total moles of ions are released when the following sample dissolves completely in water? 6.188 x 10 21 formula units o
elixir [45]

Answer:

e. 3.08 x 10⁻² mol of ions.

Explanation:

  • Every 1.0 mole of any compound contains Avogadro's number of molecules (6.022 x 10²³).

  • We can get the no. of moles of NiCl₂ using cross multiplication:

1.0 mol NiCl₂ contains → 6.022 x 10²³ molecules.

??? mol NiCl₂ contains → 6.188 x 10²¹ molecules.

∴ The no. of moles of NiCl₂ = (1.0 mol)(6.188 x 10²¹ molecules)/(6.022 x 10²³ molecules) = 1.028 x 10⁻² mol.

  • NiCl₂ is ionized according to the equation:

NiCl₂ → Ni²⁺ + 2Cl⁻.

Which means that every 1.0 mol of NiCl₂ is ionized to produce 3.0 moles (1.0 mol of Ni²⁺ and 2 moles of Cl⁻).

<em>∴ The total moles of ions are released</em> = 3 x 1.028 x 10⁻² mol = <em>3.083 x 10⁻² mol of ions.</em>
