How are carbon-based molecules suited for sustaining life?

Chemistry

\huge\fcolorbox{red}{pink}{Answer ♥}

Life on Earth is based on carbon, likely because each carbon atom can form bonds with up to four other atoms simultaneously. This quality makes carbon well-suited to form the long chains of molecules that serve as the basis for life as we know it, such as proteins and DNA.

Hope it helps uh ✌️✌️✌️

Answer:

Mass of sodium chloride decomposed = 24.54 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sodium chloride decomposed = ?

Mass of chlorine gas formed = 15 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2NaCl      →         2Na + Cl₂

Number of moles of Cl₂:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 15 g/ 71 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.21 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Cl₂ with NaCl from balance chemical equation.

                    Cl₂            :              NaCl

                      1              :                2

                      0.21         :            2×0.21 = 0.42 mol

Mass of Sodium chloride decompose:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.42 mol × 58.44 g/mol

Mass = 24.54 g

In 1909 Fritz Haber discovered the workable conditions under which nitrogen, N2(g), and hydrogen, H2(g), would combine using to
labwork [276]

Answer : 51.8 g of nitrogen are needed to produce 100 grams of ammonia gas.

Solution : Given,

Mass of NH_3 = 100 g

Molar mass of NH_3 = 27 g/mole

Molar mass of N_2 = 28 g/mole

First we have to calculate moles of NH_3.

\text{ Moles of }NH_3=\frac{\text{ Mass of }NH_3}{\text{ Molar mass of }NH_3}= \frac{100g}{27g/mole}=3.7moles

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2NH_3(g)

From the given reaction, we conclude that

2 moles of NH_3 produced from 1 mole of N_2

3.7 moles of NH_3 produced from \frac{1mole}{2mole}\times 3.7mole=1.85moles of N_2

Now we have to calculate the mass of N_2.

Mass of N_2 = Moles of N_2 × Molar mass of N_2

Mass of N_2 = 1.85 mole × 28 g/mole = 51.8 g

Therefore, 51.8 g of nitrogen are needed to produce 100 grams of ammonia gas.

A solution at 25 degrees Celslus 1.0*10^ -5 MH 3 O^ + . What the concentration of OH^ - in this solution?
dexar [7]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

-log(1.0x10^-5) = pH

pH + pOH = 14 (rearrange it)

OH- = 10^-pOH = 1.0 x 10^-9
