Answer:

$m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=2.36 gCu(NO_3)_2$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the chemical reaction between copper and nitric acid is:

$2HNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+H_2$

By starting with 0.80 g of copper metal (molar mass = 63.54 g/mol) and considering the 1:1 mole ratio between copper and copper (II) nitrate (molar mass = 187.56 g/mol) we can compute that mass via stoichiometry as shown below:

$m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=0.80gCu*\frac{1molCu}{63.54gCu} *\frac{1molCu(NO_3)_2}{1molCu} *\frac{187.56gCu(NO_3)_2}{1molCu(NO_3)_2} \\\\m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=2.36 gCu(NO_3)_2$

However, the real reaction between copper and nitric acid releases nitrogen oxide, yet it does not modify the calculations since the 1:1 mole ratio is still there:

$4HNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+2H_2O+2NO_2$

Best regards!

In a 35.0 L tank of N2O3 at STP, how many molecules are there?

likoan [24]

Answer:

$9.40x10^{23}molecules$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since we are given the volume of N2O3 and pressure and temperature for the STP (1.00 atm and 273.15 K), we can compute the moles, considering the ideal gas equation as shown below:

$PV=nRT\\\\n=\frac{PV}{RT} \\\\n=\frac{1atm*35L}{0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*273.15K}\\\\n=1.56mol$

Now, by using the Avogadro's number it is possible to compute the molecules of this case in 1.56 moles:

$molecules=1.56mol*\frac{6.022x10^{23}}{1mol} =9.40x10^{23}molecules$

Best regards!

It requires more energy to boil an substance than to melt it (with special exceptions). When something is boiled you are furthering the distance between the already stretched out molecules which will require more energy to do so, also in most cases you will be creating a vapor from boiling which has a high kinetic energy value.

Answer: Km = 10μM

Explanation: Michaelis-Menten constant (Km) measures the affinity a enzyme has to its substrate, so it can be known how well an enzyme is suited to the substrate being used. To determine Km another value associated to an eznyme is important: Turnover number (Kcat), which is the number of time an enzyme site converts substrate into product per unit time.

Enzyme veolcity is calculated as:

$V_{0} = \frac{E_{t}.K_{cat}.[substrate]}{K_{m}+[substrate]}$
