Enter a balanced equation for the reaction between solid silicon dioxide and solid carbon that produces solid silicon carbide an

givi [52]

Answer:

SiO2(s) + 3C(s) ------> SiC(s) + 2CO(g)

Explanation:

The formula for silicon oxide is SiO2 and carbon is C. silicon carbide is SiC

and carbon monoxide is CO.

An arrow is always used to separate the reactants (left) and products (right).

A balanced equation must contain equal number of atoms in each side of the equation.

For example in the equation above, there are 1 atom of silicon appears on each side; 2 atoms of oxygen and three atoms of carbon.

Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

103.4 g H₂S (Sulfuric Acid)

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Avogadro's Number

Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of S - 32.07 g/mol

Molar Mass of H₂S - 2(1.01) + 32.07 = 34.09 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

Set up: $\displaystyle 103.4 \ g \ H_2S(\frac{1 \ mol \ H_2S}{34.09 \ g \ H_2S})(\frac{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ molecules \ H_2S}{1 \ mol \ H_2S})$
Multiply: $\displaystyle 1.82656 \cdot 10^{24} \ molecules \ H_2S$

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 4 sig figs.</em>

1.82656 × 10²⁴ molecules H₂S ≈ 1.827 × 10²⁴ molecules H₂S

Why chemically did the prescribing of thalidomide for morning sickness in pregnant women lead to tragic consequences, including

Dominik [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The drug thalidomide with molecular formula C13H10N2O4 was widely prescribed by doctors for morning sickness in pregnant women in the 1960s.

The drug was sold as a racemic mixture (+)(R)-thalidomide and (-)(S)-thalidomide.

Unfortunately, only the (+)(R)-thalidomide exhibited the required effect while (-)(S)-thalidomide is a teratogen.

This goes a long way to underscore the importance of separation of enantiomers in drug production.

Therefore, all the teratogenic effects observed when using the drug thalidomide was actually as a result of the presence of (-)(S)-thalidomide, the unwanted enantiomer.
