What are molecules, and how are the properties of molecules different from the atoms they come from? Give an example.

1 answer:

3 0

Molecule, a group of two or more atoms that form the smallest identifiable unit into which a pure substance can be divided and still retain the composition and chemical properties of that substance.

While Atoms are single neutral particles,

Molecules are neutral particles made of two or more atoms bonded together.

Exaplmes for molecules

H2O (water)

N2 (nitrogen)

O3 (ozone)

CaO (calcium oxide)

C6H12O6 (glucose, a type of sugar)

NaCl (table salt

And examples for atoms

Neon (Ne)

Hydrogen (H)

Argon (Ar)

Iron (Fe)

Calcium (Ca)

Deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen that has one proton and one neutron.

Plutonium (Pu)

F-, a fluorine anion.

Based on the chemical equation, use the drop-down menu to choose the coefficients that will balance the chemical equation: ()bao

just olya [345]

Based on the given chemical equation, the value of coefficient that is used in the reaction before each molecule is 1.

<h3>What is balanced equation?</h3>

Balanced chemical equations are those equation in which each element is present in equal amount on both side of the chemical reaction.

Given chemical reaction is:

BaO₂ + H₂SO₄ → H₂O₂ + BaSO₄

Above reaction is balanced as all elements are present in equal amounts on both sides. So, the value of coefficients is 1.

Hence the required coefficients is 1.

If 5.0 liters H2 (g) at STP is heated to a temperature of 985, pressure remaining constant, the new volume of the gas will be?

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

$V_2=18 \ L \ H_2$

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Gas Laws

STP (Standard Conditions for Temperature and Pressure) = 22.4 L per mole at 1 atm, 273 K
Charles' Law: $\frac{V_1}{T_1} =\frac{V_2}{T_2}$

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Initial Volume: 5.0 L H₂ gas

Initial Temp: 273 K

Final Temp: 985 K

Final Volume: ?

Step 2: Solve for new volume

Substitute: $\frac{5 \ L \ H_2}{273 \ K} =\frac{x \ L \ H_2}{985 \ K}$
Cross-multiply: $(5 \ L \ H_2)(985 \ K) = (x \ L \ H_2)(273 \ K)$
Multiply: $4925 \ L \ H_2 \cdot K = 273x \ L \ H_2 \cdot K$
Isolate x: $18.0403 \ L \ H_2 = x$
Rewrite: $x=18.0403 \ L \ H_2$

Step 3: Check

We are given 2 sig figs as the smallest. Follow sig fig rules and round.

$18.0403 \ L \ H_2 \approx 18 \ L \ H_2$

In the article, Invasion of the Periodical Cicadas, why do scienctists believe that cicadas only reproduce every 13 or 17 years?

frez [133]

Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. However, I assumed you are referring to the article found on the Scientific American website.

Explanation:

Remember, according to that article we are told that scientists notice that these insects have a long nymphal (immature form before becoming adults) stage, one that can last up to 13 to 17 years on the ground before they leave the ground looking for mating partners.

Because it is only after mating occurs at this point that their eggs are laid, that is why scientists believe that cicadas only reproduce every 13 or 17 years.

The products of photosynthesis are the starting materials of cellular respiration true or false

notsponge [240]

True....

Explanation

Cells use oxygen to release energy during photosynthesis/chlorophyll/cellular respiration. For photosynthesis, the starting materials are water and carbon dioxide, and the products are sugar and oxygen. For cellular respiration, the starting materials are oxygen and sugar, and the products are carbon dioxide and water.
