Explain how the solubility of water is useful in maintaining various life processes.
Aneli [31]

Water is called a universal solvent because of its ability to dissolve different types of substances.

The basic unit of life is cell and a large portion of living cell (60%)  is made up of water, this is because cells need water to survive. Biochemical reactions are always ongoing in the living cells and water act as solvents under which these reactions occur. Because of the high solubility of water, it is able to dissolve various substances needed by the body, this makes it easy for the substance to participate in chemical reactions and to move from one point to another.  Without water biochemical reactions will not be able to occur in cells and this will lead to the death of the cells.

Calculate the reaction quotient Qp for the following redox reaction: 14H+ + Cr2O72- + 6Cl- ----> 2Cr3+ + 3Cl2 + 7H2O The reac
stich3 [128]

Answer:

Value of Q_{p} for the given redox reaction is 1.0\times 10^{-8}

Explanation:

Redox reaction with states of species:

14H^{+}(aq.)+Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq.)+6Cl^{-}(aq.)\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq.)+3Cl_{2}(g)+7H_{2}O(l)

Reaction quotient for this redox reaction:

Q_{p}=\frac{[Cr^{3+}]^{2}.P_{Cl_{2}}^{3}}{[H^{+}]^{14}.[Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}].[Cl^{-}]^{6}}

Species inside third braket represent concentration in molarity, P represent pressure in atm and concentration of H_{2}O is taken as 1 due to the fact that H_{2}O is a pure liquid.

pH=-log[H^{+}]

So, [H^{+}]=10^{-pH}

Plug in all the given values in the equation of Q_{p}:

Q_{p}=\frac{(0.10)^{2}\times (0.010)^{3}}{(10^{-0.0})^{14}\times (1.0)\times (1.0)^{6}}=1.0\times 10^{-8}

Answer the questions about the characteristics of the elements in group 1 (the alkali metals). What happens when the elements in
irinina [24]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The elements in group form univalent positive ions and element in group 17 form univalent negative ions. Hence, when a group 1 element reacts with a group 17 element, a compound of the sort MX is formed. Hence, when a group 1 element reacts with bromine, a salt is formed with the general formula MBr.

Elements of group 1 are highly electro positive metals. They react with water to form the metal hydroxide and release hydrogen gas. Hence, when group 1 elements react with water, hydrogen gas is released.

A group 1 element forms a univalent positive ion while a group 16 element forms a divalent negative ion. Hence, when a groups 1 element reacts with oxygen, the compound formed must have the general formula M2O.

The reactivity of group 1 metal increases down the group hence Cs is the most reactive group 1 element.

Lithium displays a slightly different chemistry from other group 1 elements because of its small size.

Which of the following statements is FALSE?
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Option C is false statement. The half life of a second order reaction is not dependent on concentration.

Explanation:

Half life of a reaction is defined as the amount of time which is required for a reactant concentration reduced by half comparison to its initial concentration.

Half life of a second order reaction is depend on the initial concentration of a reaction, in contrast to 1st order reaction.
