Mercury is in a liquid state

Mercury's melting point is somewhere around -34 Degrees Celcius. Thus it should be assumed it will be a liquid at this temperature. Not a gas however as mercury's boiling point is somewhere in the 600 Degree range

When magnesium reacts with chlorine, magnesium ions, Mg2+, and chloride ions, Cl−are formed. In this reaction, magnesium atoms A
Slav-nsk [51]

<u>Answer:</u> In the reaction, magnesium atoms lose electrons.

<u>Explanation:</u>

An ionic compound is defined as the compound which is formed when electron gets transferred from one atom to another atom. These are usually formed when a metal reacts with a non-metal or a metal reacts with a polyatomic ion or a reaction between two polyatomic ions takes place.

Magnesium is 12th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of 1s^22s^22p^63s^2

This element will loose 2 electrons to form Mg^{2+} ion

Chlorine is 17th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5

This element will gain 1 electron to form Cl^- ion

By criss-cross method, the oxidation state of the ions gets exchanged and they form the subscripts of the other ions. This results in the formation of a neutral compound.

The ionic compound formed is MgCl_2

Hence, in the reaction, magnesium atoms lose electrons.

If 14c-labeled uracil is added to the growth medium of cells, what macromolecules will be labeled?
ziro4ka [17]
When there are 14c-lable uracil that are added to the growth medium of cells, the macromolecules that will be labled are RNA. Uracil is a nucleobase that make up the DNA or the RNA. In RNA, uracil binds with other nucleobase (adenine) through hydrogen bonds.

what is the concentration of an NaOH solution that requires 50 mL of a 1.25 M H2SO4 solution to neutralize 78.0 ml of NaOH​
Dimas [21]

Answer:

  • The answer is the concentration of an NaOH = 1.6 M

Explanation:

The most common way to solve this kind of problem is to use the formula  

  • C₁ * V₁ = C₂ * V₂

In your problem,

For NaOH

C₁ =??     v₁= 78.0 mL = 0.078 L

For H₂SO₄

C₁ =1.25 M     v₁= 50.0 mL = 0.05 L

but you must note that for the reaction of NaOH with H₂SO₄

2 mol of NaOH raect with 1 mol H₂SO₄

So, by applying in above formula

  • C₁ * V₁ = 2 * C₂ * V₂
  • (C₁ * 0.078 L) = (2*  1.25 M * 0.05 L)
  • C₁ = (2*  1.25 M * 0.05 L) / (0.078 L) = 1.6 M  

<u>So, the answer is the concentration of an NaOH = 1.6 M</u>

Calculate the equilibrium constant at 25 ∘C for the reaction Fe(s)+2Ag+(aq)→Fe2+(aq)+2Ag(s)
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

1.7 × 10 ^42

Explanation:

Using Nernst equation

E°cell = RT/nF Inq

at equilibrium

Q=K

E°cell  = 0.0257 /n Ink= 0.0592/n log K

Fe2+(aq)+2e−→Fe(s)     E∘= −0.45 V

Ag+aq)+e−→Ag(s)         E∘= 0.80 V

Fe(s)+2Ag+(aq)→Fe2+(aq)+2Ag(s)

balance the reaction

Fe → Fe²⁺ + 2e⁻  reversing for oxidation E° = 0.45 v

2 Ag⁺ +2e⁻ → 2Ag

n = 2 moles  and K = equilibrium constant

E° cell = 0.80 + 0.45 = 1.25 V

E° cell = (0.0592 / n) log K  

substitute the value into the equations and solve for K

(1.25 × 2) / 0.0592  = log K

42.23 = log K

k = 10^ 42.23

K = 1.7 × 10 ^42
