From the reaction between Cu and HNO₃, the formed gas is NO₂ instead of NO₃. Hence the correct balanced equation would be,
Cu(s) + 4HNO₃(aq) → Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2NO₂(g) + 2H₂O<span>(l)

Here, Cu goes to </span>Cu(NO₃)₂ by changing its oxidation number from 0 to +2 while NO₃⁻ goes to NO₂ by reducing its oxidation state from +5 to +4 . Hence Cu is oxidized by HNO₃ in the reaction.

Alex73 [517]

Without wasting much of our time, Here is the correct question.

Hemoglobin molecules in blood bind oxygen and carry it to cells, where it takes part in metabolism. The binding of oxygen hemoglobin(aq) + O2(aq) -------> hemoglobin O2(aq) is first order in hemoglobin and first order in dissolved oxygen, with a rate constant of 4 × 10⁷ L mol⁻¹ s⁻¹. Calculate the initial rate at which oxygen will be bound to hemoglobin if the concentration of hemoglobin is 2 × 10⁻⁹ M and that of oxygen is 5 × 10⁻⁵M.

Answer:

4 × 10⁻⁶ M s⁻¹

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction between Hemoglobin molecules in blood that binds with oxygen molecule can be represent by:

hemoglobin_{(aq)  +  O_{2(aq)   ---------> hemoglobin.O_{2(aq)

Now, we are also being told to calculate only!, the  initial rate at which oxygen will be bound to hemoglobin.

So, If it is first order in hemoglobin and also first order in Oxygen molecule at the initial rate of the the reaction, therefore, the rate  for the reaction can be expressed as :

rate = k [hemoglobin_{(aq)}][O_{2(aq)}]

Let's not forget that we are so given some parameters;

where

k (rate constant) = 4 × 10⁷ L mol⁻¹ s⁻¹

[ hemoglobin_{(aq) ] = 2 × 10⁻⁹ M

[  O_{2(aq)  ]  =  5 × 10⁻⁵ M

Substituting our data given into the above rate formula, we have:

rate = (4 × 10⁷ L mol⁻¹ s⁻¹) × (2 × 10⁻⁹ M) × (5 × 10⁻⁵ M)

rate = 4 × 10⁻⁶ M s⁻¹     ( given that 1 M = 1 mol L⁻¹ )

∴ the initial rate at which oxygen will be bound to hemoglobin = 4 × 10⁻⁶ M s⁻¹

State the type of bonding—ionic, covalent, or metallic—you would expect in each:<br> (b) MgCl₂(s);
IceJOKER [234]

MgCl2 is an ionic compound because chemical bonds in the molecule are formed by the transfer of electrons among Mg and Cl atoms.

<h3>What is chemical bond ?</h3>

A chemical bond is a strong bond that can be formed between atoms, ions, or molecules to create chemical compounds. The bond may be created by the sharing of electrons in covalent bonds or by the electrostatic attraction of two oppositely charged ions, as in ionic bonds. Covalent, ionic, and metallic bindings are examples of "strong bonds" or "primary bonds," whereas dipole-dipole interactions, the London dispersion force, and hydrogen bonding are examples of "weak bonds" or "secondary bonds."

The positively charged protons in the nucleus and the negatively charged electrons in its orbit are attracted to one another by the basic electromagnetic force.
