PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer: The gas generated by two antacid tablets has a smaller volume.

Explanation:

Since the antiacid is the limiting reagent, we know that the more tablets there are, the more gas there will be.

This means that there will be more gas generated by the four antiacid tablets when compared to the two antiacid tablets, which gives us that the gas generated by the two antiacid tablets has a smaller volume.

Calculate the molecular formula of a compound with the empirical formula C5H11 and a molar mass of 142.32 grams/mole

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Relative formula mass C₅H₁₁ = 71

Now divide the molar mass by the RFM = 142.32 / 71 = 2

Now C₍₅ₓ₂₎H₍₁₁ₓ₂) = C₁₀H₂₂

Hope that helps

Cytochromes are critical participants in the electron transport chains used in photosynthesis and cellular respiration. How do c

goblinko [34]

Answer:

4) Each cytochrome has an iron‑containing heme group that accepts electrons and then donates the electrons to a more electronegative substance.

Explanation:

The cytochromes are proteins that contain heme prosthetic groups. Cytochromes undergo oxidation and reduction through loss or gain of a single electron by the iron atom in the heme of the cytochrome:

$Cytochrome-Fe²⁺ ⇄ cytochrome-Fe³⁺-e⁻$

The reduced form of ubiquinone (QH₂), an extraordinarily mobile transporter, transfers electrons to cytochrome reductase, a complex that contains cytochromes b and c₁, and a Fe-S center. This second complex reduces cytochrome c, a water-soluble membrane peripheral protein. Cytochrome c, like ubiquinone (Q), is a mobile electron transporter, which is transferred to cytochrome oxidase. This third complex contains the cytochromes a, a₃ and two copper ions. Heme iron and a copper ion of this oxidase transfer electrons to O₂, as the last acceptor, to form water.

Each transporter "downstream" is more electronegative than its neighbor "upstream"; oxygen is located in the inferior part of the chain. Thus, the electrons fall in an energetic gradient in the electron chain transport to a more stable localization in the electronegative oxygen atom.

Write the empirical formula of at least four binary ionic compounds that could be formed from the following ions: Zn2+, Ni4+, F-

hram777 [196]

Ionic compounds are formed between oppositely charged ions.

A binary ionic compound is composed of ions of two different elements - one of which is a positive ion(metal), and the other is negative ion (nonmetal).

To write the empirical formula of binary ionic compound we must remember that one ion should be positive and other ion should be negative, then only the correct formula should be written. To write the empirical formula the charges of opposite ions should be criss-crossed.

First empirical formula of binary ionic compound is written between $Zn^{2+} (Positive ion)and F^{-} (Negative ion)$

First Formula would be $ZnF_{2}$

Second empirical formula is between $Zn^{2+}(Positive ion) and O^{2-}(Negative ion)$

Second Formula would be $Zn_{2}O_{2}$

Note : When the subscript are same they get cancel out, so $Zn_{2}O_{2}$ would be written as $ZnO$

Third empirical formula is between $Ni^{4+}(Positive ion) and F^{-}(Negative ion)$

Third Formula would be : $NiF_{4}$

Forth empirical formula is between $Ni^{4+}(Positive ion)and O^{2-}(negative ion)$

Forth Formula would be : $Ni_{2}O_{4}$ or $NiO_{2}$

Note- The subscript will be simplified and the formula will be written as $NiO_{2}$ .

The empirical formula of four binary ionic compounds are : $ZnF_{2}, ZnO, NiF_{4},NiO_{2}$
