Each isotope of Oxygen has a different number of neutrons

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The elements in nature have several types of isotopes

Atomic mass is the average atomic mass of all its isotopes

Isotopes are atoms has the same number of protons but has a different number of neutrons.

So Isotopes are elements that have the same Atomic Number (Proton)

Some of the isotopes of oxygen are:

$\tt _8^{16}O,_8^{17}O,_8^{18}O$

Each isotope has 8 protons and 8 electrons but has a different number of neutrons

For O-16: number of neutrons = 16-8 = 8

For O-17: number of neutrons = 17-8 = 9

For O-18: number of neutrons = 18-8 = 10

Answer:

Covalent bonding

Explanation:

In covalent bonding, the electrons are shared to fill the octet rule (8 electrons in valence shell). CCl4 tends to do covalent bonding because the the 4 valence electrons are Carbon are shared with the Chlorine atoms so that each chlorine atom has a full octet and chlorine shares its electrons to fill the octet of carbon.

Also, since carbon and chlorine are both non-metal, non-metal things exhibit covalent bonding thus this is covalent bonding as well. Ionic boding is for metal and non metal pair where electrons are transferrred, in our case, electrons are shared, they are not transferred.

1. Describe how you can use the graduated cylinder to determine the volume of a small, irregularly-shaped metal. 2. What safety

alisha [4.7K]

Explanation:

i. Measure the initial volume of water in a graduated cylinder.

ii. Now submerge the irregularly shaped metal into water in a graduated cylinder.

iii. Measure the final volume of water.

iv. The difference between the final volume and the initial volume is the volume of the irregularly shaped metal.

When adding the irregularly shaped metal into the glass graduated cylinder. Make sure that the irregularly shaped metal is completely submerged into the water.

In yeast, ethanol is produced from glucose under anaerobic conditions. A cell‑free yeast extract is placed in a solution that co

12345 [234]

Answer:

650 mmol.

Explanation:

The equation for the fermentation of one mole of glucose is:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 2 NAD⁺ + 2 ADP + 2 P i + 2 NADH → 2 EtOH + 2 ATP + 2 NADH + 2 NAD⁺

Since NAD⁺/NADH is used and regenerated, we can eliminate it from the equation:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 2 ADP + 2 P i → 2 EtOH + 2 ATP

With the equation, we calculate the maximum amount of ethanol that could be obtained theoretically:

1000 mmol C₆H₁₂O₆ ------------ 2000 mmol EtOH

325 mmol C₆H₁₂O₆ ------------- x= 650 mmol EtOH

Therefore, the maximum amount of ethanol that could be produced is 650 mmol.
