Answer: There are 0.000043 moles of melatonin.

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

given mass = 10 mg = 0.01 g

molar mass of C_{13}H_{16}N_2O_2 = 232.28 g

{\text {moles of melatonin}}=\frac{0.01g}{232.28g/mol}=0.000043moles

Thus there are 0.000043 moles of melatonin

What mass of slaked lime is needed to decompose 10 g of ammonium chloride to give 100% yield? Ca(OH)2 + 2NH4Cl → CaCl2 + 2NH3 +
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer is: mass of slaked lime is 6.92 grams.

Balanced chemical reaction: Ca(OH)₂ + 2NH₄Cl → CaCl₂ + 2NH₃ + 2H₂O.

m(NH₄Cl) = 10 g; mass of ammonium chloride.

M(NH₄Cl) = 14 + 1·4 + 35.5 · g/mol.

M(NH₄Cl) = 53.5 g/mol; molar mass of ammonium chloride.

n(NH₄Cl) = m(NH₄Cl) ÷M(NH₄Cl).

n(NH₄Cl) = 10 g ÷ 53.5 g/mol.

n(NH₄Cl) = 0.187 mol; amount of ammonium chloride.

From balanced chemical reaction: n(NH₄Cl) : n(Ca(OH)₂) = 2 : 1.

n(Ca(OH)₂) = 0.093 mol.

m(Ca(OH)₂) = n(Ca(OH)₂) · M(Ca(OH)₂).

m(Ca(OH)₂) = 0.093 mol · 74.1 g/mol.

m(Ca(OH)₂) = 6.92 g.

Which substance is the oxidizing agent in this reaction? 2CuO+C→2Cu+CO2 Express your answer as a chemical formula.
Alja [10]
The oxidizing agent is the one that is reduced in the reaction. In this reaction, the charge of Cu falls from +2 to zero charge (neutral atom in the right side). Hence, CuO is the oxidizing agent. The reducing agent, the one being oxidized is carbon from zero charge to +4. The answer is CuO.

What happens when a wire passes through a magnetic field?
Daniel [21]

Answer:

If a coil of wire is placed in a changing magnetic field, a current will be induced in the wire. This current flows because something is producing an electric field that forces the charges around the wire. (It cannot be the magnetic force since the charges are not initially moving).

A roller coaster starts down a hill at 10 m/s. Three seconds later, its speed is 32 m/s. What is the roller coaster’s accelerati
erica [24]
Final velocity(v) = 32 m/s
Initial velocity(u) = 10 m/s

Using kinematic equation v = u + at, 

32 = 10 + a(3)

32-10
---------  = a
    3

a = 22
      ----
       3

a = 7.3 m/s^2.

Hence acceleration of the roller coaster is 7.3 m/s^2.

Hope this helps!!
