The movement of tectonic plates is so slow and gradual that you cannot see or feel them moving. As a result, scientist depend on

the global positioning system (GPS) to verify tectonic plate motion. Satellites can measure the small distances that GPS ground stations move over time. In what units is the movement of tectonic plates measured? Group of answer choices.

Yeast converts glucose to ethanol and carbon dioxide during a process known as anaerobic fermentation. The chemical reaction is
Korolek [52]

Answer:

102g

Explanation:

To find the mass of ethanol formed, we first need to ensure that we have a balanced chemical equation. A balanced chemical equation is where the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation (reactants and products). This is useful as only when a chemical equation is balanced, we can understand the relationship of the amount (moles) of reactant and products, or to put it simply, their relationship with one another.

In this case, the given equation is already balanced.

\tex{C_6H_{12}O_6} \longrightarrow 2 \ C_2H_6O + 2 \ CO_2

From the equation, the amount of ethanol produced is twice the amount of yeast present, or the same amount of carbon dioxide produced. Do note that amount refers to the number of moles here.

Mole= Mass ÷Mr

Mass= Mole ×Mr

<u>Method 1: using the </u><u>mass of glucose</u>

Mr of glucose

= 6(12) +12(1) +6(16)

= 180

Moles of glucose reacted

= 200 ÷180

= \frac{10}{9} mol

Amount of ethanol formed: moles of glucose reacted= 2: 1

Amount of ethanol

= 2(\frac{10}{9} )

= \frac{20}{9} mol

Mass of ethanol

= \frac{20}{9} \times[2(12)+6+16]

= \frac{20}{9}(46)

= 102 g (3 s.f.)

<u>Method 2: using </u><u>mass of carbon dioxide</u><u> produced</u>

Mole of carbon dioxide produced

= 97.7 ÷[12 +2(16)]

= 97.7 ÷44

= \frac{977}{440} mol

Moles of ethanol: moles of carbon dioxide= 1: 1

Moles of ethanol formed= \frac{977}{440} mol

Mass of ethanol formed

= \frac{977}{440} \times[2(12)+6+16]

= 102 g (3 s.f.)

Thus, 102 g of ethanol are formed.

determine whether each of the following electron configurations is an inert gas, a halogen, an alkali metal, an alkaline earth m
mamaluj [8]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

Determine whether each of the following electron configurations is an inert gas, a halogen, an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, or a transition metal. Justify your choices.

(a) 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5

(b) 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^74s^2

(c) 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}4s^24p^6

(d) 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^4s^1

Answer :

(a) 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5   → Halogen

(b) 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^74s^2    → Transition metal

(c) 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}4s^24p^6   → Transition metal

(d) 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^4s^1   → Transition metal

Explanation :

Inert gas : These are the gases which lie in group 18.

Their general electronic configuration is: ns^2np^6 where n is the outermost shell.

Halogen : These are the elements which lie in group 17.

Their general electronic configuration is: ns^2np^5 where n is the outermost shell.

An alkali metal : These are the elements which lie in group 1.

Their general electronic configuration is: ns^1 where n is the outermost shell.

An alkaline earth metal : These are the elements which lie in group 2.

Their general electronic configuration is: ns^2 where n is the outermost shell.

Transition elements : They are the elements which lie between 's' and 'p' block elements. These are the elements which lie in group 3 to 12. The valence electrons of these elements enter d-orbital.

Their general electronic configuration is: (n-1)d^{1-10}ns^{0-2} where n is the outermost shell.

(a) 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5

The element having this electronic configuration belongs to the halogen family.

(b) 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^74s^2

The element having this electronic configuration belongs to the transition family.

(c) 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}4s^24p^6

The element having this electronic configuration belongs to the transition family.

(d) 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^4s^1

The element having this electronic configuration belongs to the transition family.
