Answer:

There is 78.25g NaHCO3 required

Explanation:

Step 1: Balance the equation

2 NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + CO2 + H20

For 2 moles of NaHCO3 consumed, there is produced 1 mole of Na2CO3, 1 mole of CO2 and 1 mole of H2O.

Step 2: calculating moles of CO2

mass of Co2 = 20.5g

Molar mass of CO2 = 44.01 g/mole

moles of CO2 = 20.5 / 44.01 = 0.4658 moles

Step 3: Calculating moles of NaHCO3

Since we have for 1 mole CO2 produced, there is 2 moles of NaHCO3 consumed.

To calculate number of moles of NaHCO3, we have to multiply the number of moles of CO2, by 2.

⇒ 0.4658 x2 = 0.9316 moles

Step 4: Calculating the mass of NaHCO3

mass of NaHCO3 = moles of NaHCO3 x Molar mass of NaHCO3

mass = 0.9316 moles x 84g/ mole = 78.25g NaHCO3

There is 78.25g NaHCO3 required

The role of pigments both in capturing light energy and in converting it to the chemical energy of ATP and NADPH.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The explanation of the processes in which pigments are involved (capturing light and forming ATP and NADPH) is given in the following paragraphs)

Explanation:

Pigments are molecules with the capacity of absorbing light. Each pigment captures light of a specific wavelength. Plants contain different types of pigments like chlorophylls, xanthophylls, carotenoids, and others.

Chloroplasts (organelles present in cells of plants), contain pigmants that absorb solar radiation, triggering a series of reactions collectively known as photosynthesis. When light incides on a pigment, an electron of this molecules is excitated, goes into another level of energy and starts to pass through a series of carrier molecules to finally to a final aceptor of electrons. During this transport, part of the energy contained in the electron is used to generates a hydrogen gradient that provides energy. As a result of these processes, a molecule that is called NADP+ accepts two electrons and an hydrogen to form NADPH, while another molecule known as ADP captures an atom of phosphorous and gives rise to ATP (through the action of a protein called ATP sintase)..

Give the structure that corresponds to the following molecular formula and 1H NMR spectrum: C4H10O2: δ 1.36 (3H, d, J = 5.5 Hz);

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

For the determination of a structure through its NMR it is necessary to know its molecular formula as well as the delta values, its coupling and the shift of each signal.

The separation produced is called coupling constant J and is measured in Hz. If the split is produced by two equal protons (equal J) a triple signal known as triplet is produced and if produced by three equal protons, the signal is quadruple and is known as quadruplet. The magnitude of the coupling is varied, depending on the relative disposition of the coupled protons (elevations that separate them, arrangement, spatial arrangement)

OH CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 OH

(A) (B) (C)

1,4-butanediol

In the case of the molecule to study the signal at 1.36 shows a doublet, which corresponds to the hydrogen (C), is split in two for each different proton on the same carbon or on neighboring carbons.

At 3.32 ocurrs a singlet, wich belong to hidrogen (B). The last signal is a quintet, at 4.63 belonging to the hydrogen (C)

Explanation

Nuclear magnetic resonance NMR is a physical phenomenon based on the mechanical-quantum properties of atomic nuclei. NMR also refers to the family of scientific methods that explore this phenomenon to study molecules, macromolecules, as well as tissues and whole organisms.

NMR takes advantage of the fact that atomic nuclei resonate at a frequency directly proportional to the force of a magnetic field exerted, in accordance with the Larmor precession frequency equation, to subsequently disturb this alignment with the use of an alternating magnetic field, of orthogonal orientation.

The behavior of the nuclei in the magnetic field can be influenced in multiple ways, to give different types of information, but the basic information obtained is:

Frequency at which each particular nuclei comes out, displacement.
Number of nucleis of each type, integral.
Number and arrangement of nearby nuclei, multiplicity.

From the value Kf=1.2×109 for Ni(NH3)62+, calculate the concentration of NH3 required to just dissolve 0.016 mol of NiC2O4 (Ksp

Nina [5.8K]

<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of $NH_3$ required will be 0.285 M.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molarity of $NiC_2O_4$ , we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Moles of $NiC_2O_4$ = 0.016 moles

Volume of solution = 1 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Molarity of }NiC_2O_4=\frac{0.016mol}{1L}=0.016M$

For the given chemical equations:

$NiC_2O_4(s)\rightleftharpoons Ni^{2+}(aq.)+C_2O_4^{2-}(aq.);K_{sp}=4.0\times 10^{-10}$

$Ni^{2+}(aq.)+6NH_3(aq.)\rightleftharpoons [Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}+C_2O_4^{2-}(aq.);K_f=1.2\times 10^9$

Net equation: $NiC_2O_4(s)+6NH_3(aq.)\rightleftharpoons [Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}+C_2O_4^{2-}(aq.);K=?$

To calculate the equilibrium constant, K for above equation, we get:

$K=K_{sp}\times K_f\\K=(4.0\times 10^{-10})\times (1.2\times 10^9)=0.48$

The expression for equilibrium constant of above equation is:

$K=\frac{[C_2O_4^{2-}][[Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}]}{[NiC_2O_4][NH_3]^6}$

As, $NiC_2O_4$ is a solid, so its activity is taken as 1 and so for $C_2O_4^{2-}$

We are given:

$[[Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}]=0.016M$

Putting values in above equations, we get:

$0.48=\frac{0.016}{[NH_3]^6}}$

$[NH_3]=0.285M$

Hence, the concentration of $NH_3$ required will be 0.285 M.

There is no reaction because of the common ion effect(which in this case is K)if there were a reaction the products would be the same as the reactants so no reaction happens
