Answer:

When the solar system settled into its current layout about 4.5 billion years ago, Earth formed when gravity pulled swirling gas and dust in to become the third planet from the Sun. Like its fellow terrestrial planets, Earth has a central core, a rocky mantle and a solid crust.

3) Calculate the percent by mass of 3.55 g NaCl dissolved in 88 g water.

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The percent by mass of 3.55 g NaCl dissolved in 88 g water is 3.88%

Explanation:

When a solute dissolves in a solvent, the mass of the resulting solution is a sum of the mass of the solute and the solvent.

A percentage is a way of expressing a quantity as a fraction of 100. In this case, the percentage by mass of a solution is the number of grams of solute per 100 grams of solution and can be represented mathematically as:

$Percent by mass=\frac{mass of solute}{mass of solution} *100$

In this way it allows to precisely establish the concentration of solutions and express them in terms of percentages.

In this case:

mass of solute: 3.55 g
mass of solution: 3.55 g + 88 g= 91.55 g

Replacing:

$Percentbymass=\frac{3.55}{91.55}*100$

Percent by mass= 3.88%

The percent by mass of 3.55 g NaCl dissolved in 88 g water is 3.88%

A 825 g iron block is heated to 352 degrees C and is placed in an insulated container (of negligible heat capacity) containing 4

Stella [2.4K]

Answer : The final equilibrium temperature of the water and iron is, 537.12 K

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

$q_1=-q_2$

$m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)$

where,

$c_1$ = specific heat of iron = 560 J/(kg.K)

$c_1$ = specific heat of water = 4186 J/(kg.K)

$m_1$ = mass of iron = 825 g

$m_2$ = mass of water = 40 g

$T_f$ = final temperature of water and iron = ?

$T_1$ = initial temperature of iron = $352^oC=273+352=625K$

$T_2$ = initial temperature of water = $20^oC=273+20=293K$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$(825\times 10^{-3}kg)\times 560J/(kg.K)\times (T_f-625K)=-(40\times 10^{-3}kg)\times 4186J/(kg.K)\times (T_f-293K)$

$T_f=537.12K$

Therefore, the final equilibrium temperature of the water and iron is, 537.12 K

The functional structure of a protein is its _________________ structure, which is ultimately determined by the ________________

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The tertiary structure of proteins is related to the interactions between the amino acids of the primary structure. Thus, these interactions give it a specific three-dimensional configuration which is very sensitive to functionality.

For example, allosteric inhibitions are related to this concept. When the inhibitor changes the tertiary structure of the protein it loses all activity and for the catalysis of the reaction.

Thus, the primary structure (which is related to the specific sequence of amino acids) will determine the tertiary structure since the chain folds will be a consequence of intra-amino acid interactions.

If excess ammonium sulfate reacts with 20.0g of calcium hydroxide how many grams of ammonia are produced

bagirrra123 [75]

The reaction between ammonium sulfate and calcium hydroxide is given below.
(NH₄)₂SO₄ + Ca(OH)₂ --> 2NH₃ + CaSO₄ + 2H₂O
From the balance equation, we can conclude that every 74 g of calcium sulfate reacted with enough amount of ammonium sulfate will yield 34 grams of ammonia. From the given amount,
(20 g calcium sulfate) x (34 grams ammonia / 74 g calcium sulfate)
= 9.19 g ammonia
