The cure for polio is a(n) _____ science. (A) Basic (B) Applied

1 answer:

4 0

The answer is (B) Applied. Applied sciences have a goal of using science for practical applications, like technology, curing diseases, and inventions. Basic sciences aim to expand knowledge for improved understanding or to explain phenomena. Two examples of basic sciences are using a microscope to observe a specimen and studying the human eye to learn how it works.

Imagine the reaction A + B ⇌ C + D is at equilibrium, where the forward and reverse reactions are at equal rates. What would hap

kondaur [170]

Answer:

Rate of forward reaction will increase.

Explanation:

Effect of change in reaction condition on equilibrium is explained by Le Chatelier's principle. According to this principle,

If an equilibrium condition of a dynamic reversible reaction is disturbed by changing concentration, temperature, pressure, volume, etc, then reaction will move will in a direction which counteract the change.

In the given reaction,

A + B ⇌ C + D

If concentration of A is increase, then reaction will move in a direction which decreases the concentration of A to reestablish the equilibrium.

As concentration A decreases in forward direction, therefore, rate of forward reaction will increase.

If 10.0 grams of NaHCO3 is added to 10.0 g of HCl, determine the efficiency of baking soda as an antacid if 6.73 g of NaCl was p

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

percentage yield of NaCl = 96.64%

Explanation:

The reaction was between NaHCO3 and HCl .The chemical equation can be represented below:

NaHCO3 + HCl → NaCl + H2O + CO2 . The balance equation is

NaHCO3 + HCl → NaCl + H2O + CO2

The question ask us to calculate the percentage yield of NaCl.

The efficiency of NaHCO3 as an antacid , the limiting reactant is NaHCO3

1 mole of NaHCO3 produces 1 mole of NaCl

Therefore,

molar mass of NaHCO3 = 23 +1 + 12 + 48 = 84 g

molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g

1 mole of NaHCO3 = 84 g

1 mole of NaCl = 58.5 g

since 84 g of NaHCO3 produces 58.5 g of NaCl

10 g of NaHCO3 will produce ? grams of NaCl

cross multiply

Theoretical yield of NaCl = (10 × 58.5)/84

Theoretical yield of NaCl = 585/84

Theoretical yield of NaCl = 6.9642857143 g

percentage yield of NaCl = actual yield/theoretical yield × 100

percentage yield of NaCl = 6.73/6.9642857143 × 100

percentage yield of NaCl = 673/6.9642857143

percentage yield of NaCl = 96.635897436%

percentage yield of NaCl = 96.64%

What must happen for heat to be transferred by convection?

Inessa05 [86]

Answer: The heat transfer by convection requires a solid-fluid interface, a temperature difference between the solid surface and the surrounding fluid and a motion of the fluid. The process of heat transfer by convection would occur when there is a movement of macro-particles of the fluid in space from a region of higher temperature to lower temperature.

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

Neko [114]

Answer:

104.352°C

Explanation:

Data Given:

Boiling point of water = 100.0°C

Kb (boiling point constant = 0.512°C/m

Concentration of the Mg₃(PO₄)₂ = 8.5 m

Solution:

Formula Used to find out boiling point

ΔTb = m.Kb . . . . . . (1)

where

ΔTb = boiling point of solution - boiling point of water

So,

we can write equation 1 as under

ΔTb = Tb (Solution) -Tb (water)

As we have to find out boiling point so rearrange the above equation

Tb (Solution) = m.Kb + Tb (water) . . . . . . . (2)

Put values in Equation 2

Tb (Solution) = (8.5 m x 0.512°C/m ) + 100.0°C

Tb (Solution) = 4.352 + 100.0°C

Tb (Solution) = 104.352°C

so the boiling point of Mg₃(PO₄)₂ 8.5 m solution = 104.352°C
