Answer:

-0.229 g

Explanation:

Given that:

the mass of the weighing boat = 0.229 g

The mass of the balance and the weighing boat w₁ = 0.229 g

After it hit the tare/zero button

The mass of the balance and the weighing boat w₂ = 0.000 g; &

the mass of NaCl w₃ = 0.678 g

If we remove all the components from the balance; the balance will read:

= 0.000 g- 0.229g

= -0.229 g

Answer:

The weighing balance will read  New weight = -0.229

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of the boat is  m =  0.229 g

    The mass of the NaCl is  m_1  =  0.678 \  g

Generally what the tare/zero button does is to set the reading of the weighing balance to zero , so

       when this button is pressed the balance reads zero  , now when the NaCl is placed on the balance , it reads 0.678 g , now when both the weighing boat and NaCl (i.e everything) is removed , the balance reads

    -0.229  g

The reason for this is , when the weighing boat was on the weighing balance , the tare / zero button was pressed , which made the balance to assume the weighing boat as  part of it make up hence the zero reading on the balance now when it is then removed the balance now performs a calculation like this

     New weight =  0 -  mass of the boat

=>   New weight =  0 - 0.229  

=>   New weight = -0.229  g

Passing an electric current through a sample of water (H2O) can cause the water to decompose into hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen g
Andreas93 [3]
2H2O --> 2H2 + O2
The mole H2O:mole O2 ratio is 2:1
Now determine how many moles of O2 are in 50g: 50g × 1mol/32g = 1.56 moles O2
Since 1 mole of O2 was produced for every 2 moles of H2O, we need 2×O2moles = H2O moles
2×1.56 = 3.13 moles H2O
Finally, convert moles to grams for H2O:
3.13moles × 18g/mol = 56.28 g H2O
D) 56.28

Which of the following pairs of elements could possibly be in the same group? X has a 1+ ion; Y has a 1- ion. X tends to form a
exis [7]
Let's eliminate these one by one.
The first pair would not be the same, as X would most likely be in group IA, and Y would be in group VIIA, because of their tendency to gain and lose electrons.
The second pair would also violate the same rule, but X would most likely be in group IIA, and Y would most likely be in group VIA.
The third pair would not be the same, as X is most likely in group VIIA, and since Y has eight valence electrons, it is most likely a noble gas.
The final pair has X with atomic number 15, making it phosphorous. Phosphorous wants to gain 3 electrons to have a full octet of 8 outer "valence" electrons, and Y would also like to gain 3 electrons. This means it is possible that the final pair would be in the same group.

Which of the following situations contains an example of a chemical reaction?
bogdanovich [222]

A bicycle rusting after it is left in the rain is an example of a chemical reaction because it involves oxidation (Option d).  

<h3>What is a chemical reaction?</h3>

A chemical reaction can be defined as a phenomenon in which one or more substances called reactants react to form one or more different compounds, which are known as products.

A chemical reaction may include an enzyme that works to increase the seed of the reaction in normal conditions by lowering the activation energy of the reaction.

Therefore, we can conclude that a chemical reaction such as oxidation in a bicycle is a process where reactants combine or break down to form the products of such reaction.

Complete question:

Which of the following situations contains an example of a chemical reaction?

a. Ice forming after water is placed in a freezer

b. Watercolor paint drying on paper

c. a sugar cube dissolving in a glass of water

d. a bicycle rusting after it is left in the rain

Calculate the atomic mass of silicon. The three silicon isotopes have atomic masses and relative abundances of 27.9769 amu (92.2
Kamila [148]
The atomic mass would be 28.08535 amu. Multiply 27.9769 by .92297 = 25.803. Multiply 28.9765 by .046832 to get 1.357. Multiply 29.9738 by .03872 to get .925351136. Add 25.803 + 1.357 + .03872 to get 28.08535 amu

If, in a peptide chain, there were 85 amino acids each joined by peptide bonds, how many n-terminus groups would be present?
Crank
If, in a peptide chain, there were 85 amino acids each joined by peptide bonds, there would only be 1 N-terminus group that would be present. The N-terminus group is always the start of the chain of a amino acid chain or a protein or a polypeptide. It refers to the free amine group present that is located at the end part of the chain. So, that no matter how many amino acids in a chain there would always be only one N-terminus group.
