Step 1: Separate the whole reaction into two half-reactions

HCOOH → CO2 MnO4- → Mn2+

Step 2: Balance the non-hydrogen and non-oxygen elements first

HCOOH → CO2 MnO4- → Mn2+

(C is balanced) (Mn is balanced)

Step 3: Balance oxygen by adding H2O(l) to the side that needs oxygen (1 O : 1 H2O)

HCOOH → CO2 MnO4- → Mn2+ + 4H2O

Step 4: Balance hydrogen by adding H+ to the side that needs hydrogen (1 H: 1 H+)

HCOOH → CO2 + 2H+ 8H+ + MnO4- → Mn2+ + 4H2O

Step 5: Balance the charges: add electrons to the more positive side (or less negative side)

HCOOH → CO2 + 2H+ 8H+ + MnO4- → Mn2+ + 4H2O

0 +2

Step 6: Balance electrons on the two half-reactions

5[HCOOH → CO2 + 2H+ +2e-]

2[5e- + 8H+ + MnO4- → Mn2+ + 4H2O]

5HCOOH → 5CO2 + 10H+ + 10e-

10e- + 16H+ + 2MnO4- → 2Mn2+ + 8H2O

Step 7: Get the overall reaction by adding the two reaction.

5HCOOH → 5CO2 + 10H+ + 10e-

10e- + 16H+ + 2MnO4- → 2Mn2+ + 8H2O

5HCOOH + 6H+ + 2MnO4- → 2Mn2+ + 8H2O + 5CO2

Balanced Redox Reaction:

5HCOOH + 6H+ + 2MnO4- → 2Mn2+ + 8H2O + 5CO2

Water has a boiling point of 100.0°C and a Kb of 0.512°C/m. What is the boiling

Reil [10]

Answer:

The boiling point of a 8.5 m solution of Mg3(PO4)2 in water is 394.91 K.

Explanation:

The formula for molal boiling Point elevation is :

$\Delta T_{b} = iK_{b}m$

$\Delta T_{b}$ = elevation in boiling Point

$K_{b}$ = Boiling point constant( ebullioscopic constant)

m = molality of the solution

i = Van't Hoff Factor

Van't Hoff Factor = It takes into accounts,The abnormal values of Temperature change due to association and dissociation .

In solution Mg3(PO4)2 dissociates as follow :

$Mg_{3}(PO_{4})_{2}\rightarrow 3Mg^{2+} + 2 PO_{4}^{3-}$

Total ions after dissociation in solution :

= 3 ions of Mg + 2 ions of phosphate

Total ions = 5

i = Van't Hoff Factor = 5

m = 8.5 m

$K_{b}$ = 0.512 °C/m

Insert the values and calculate temperature change:

$\Delta T_{b} = iK_{b}m$

$\Delta T_{b} = 5\times 0.512\times 8.5$

$\Delta T_{b} = 21.76 K$

Boiling point of pure water = 100°C = 273.15 +100 = 373.15 K

$\Delta T_{b} = T_{b} - T_{b}_{pure}$

$T_{b}_{pure}$ = 373.15 K[/tex]

21.76 = T - 373.15

T = 373.15 + 21.76

T =394.91 K

When do replicated chromosomes are aligned in the center

Art [367]

Answer:

During Metaphase

Explanation:

During Metaphase the cell chromosome align themselves in the middle of the cell.This occur due to a cellular process called "Tug of War".

The chromosome which have been replicated and joined at the central point called centromere are called sister chromatids

Prior to metaphase , Kinetochore type of protein are formed around the centromere. Long protein filament called kinetochore are extended from poles to other end of the cell attached to kinetochore.

Therse is important checkpoint in the middle of mitosis called metaphase.

At this point cell ensure that , it is ready to divide or not.

Once the cell ensure that everything is ready to divide. Only after then , yhe cell enters the fourth phase called anaphase.

The number of C atoms in 0.524 moles of C is 3.15 atoms.

The number of $SO_2$ molecules in 9.87 moles $SO_2$ is 59.43 molecules.

The moles of Fe in 1.40 x $10^{22}$ atoms of Fe is 0.23 x $10^{-1}$

The moles of $C_2H_6O$ in 2.30x $10^{24}$ molecules of $C_2H_6O$ is 3.81.

<h3>What are moles?</h3>

A mole is defined as 6.02214076 × $10^{23}$ of some chemical unit, be it atoms, molecules, ions, or others. The mole is a convenient unit to use because of the great number of atoms, molecules, or others in any substance.

A. The number of C atoms in 0.524 mole of C:

6.02214076 × $10^{23}$ x 0.524 mole

3.155601758 atoms =3.155 atoms

B. The number of $SO_2$ molecules in 9.87 moles of $SO_2$ :

6.02214076 × $10^{23}$ x 9.87

59.4385293 molecules= 59.43 molecules

C. The moles of Fe in 1.40 x $10^{22}$ atoms of Fe:

1.40 x $10^{22}$ ÷ 6.02214076 × $10^{23}$

0.2324754694 x $10^{-1}$ moles.

0.23 x $10^{-1}$ moles.

D. The moles of $C_2H_6O$ in 2.30x $10^{24}$ molecules of $C_2H_6O$ :

2.30x $10^{24}$ ÷ 6.02214076 × $10^{23}$

3.819239854 moles=3.81 moles

Which of the following laws is NOT explained by Dalton's atomic theory? A.the law of conservation of mass B. the periodic law C.

zysi [14]

B. the periodic law

Explanation:

The periodic law was not explained by the Dalton's atomic theory.

The periodic law was first postulated by Dimitry Mendeleef and Lothar Meyer around 1869 where they independently arrived at the periodic table or chart.

The table was based on the periodic law which states that "chemical properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic weights".
The modern periodic law was restated by Henry Moseley in the early 1900s. He changed the basis of the law to atomic number.
The present periodic law is stated as "the properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic number".

The laws of conservation of mass, multiple proportions and definite proportions are all explained by the Dalton's atomic theory.
