Answer:

carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).

Explanation:

When methane burns in the air it has a blue flame. In sufficient amounts of oxygen, methane burns to give off carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). When it undergoes combustion it produces a great amount of heat, which makes it very useful as a fuel source. Methane is a very effective greenhouse gas.

Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid, C9H8O4) is a weak monoprotic acid. To determine its acid-dissociation constant, a student dissolv

Triss [41]

Answer:

1. $3.57\times 10^{-4}$ was the $K_a$ value calculated by the student.

2. $5.93\times 10^{-4}$ was the $K_b$ of ethylamine value calculated by the student.

Explanation:

The $pH$ value of Aspirin solution = 2.62

$pH=-\log[H^+]$

$[H^+]=10^{-2.62}=0.00240 M$

Moles of s asprin = $\frac{2.00 g}{180 g/mol}=0.01111 mol$

Volume of the solution = 0.600 L

The initial concentration of Aspirin = c = $\frac{0.01111 mol}{0.600 L}=0.0185 M$

$HAs\rightleftharpoons As^-+H^+$

initially

c 0 0

At equilibrium

(c-x) x x

The expression of dissociation constant :

$K_a=\frac{[As^-][H^+]}{[HAs]}$ :

$K_a=\frac{x\times x }{(c-x)}$

$=\frac{0.00240 M\times 0.00240 M}{(0.0185-0.00240 )}$

$K_a=3.57\times 10^{-4}$

$3.57\times 10^{-4}$ was the $K_a$ value calculated by the student.

The $pH$ value of ethylamine = 11.87

$pH+pOH=14$

$pOH=14-11.87=2.13$

$pOH=-\log[OH^-]$

$[OH^-]=10^{-2.13}=0.00741 M$

The initial concentration of ethylamine = c = 0.100 M

$C_2H_5NH_2+H_2O\rightleftharpoons C_2H_5NH_3^{+}+OH^-$

initially

c 0 0

At equilibrium

(c-x) x x

The expression of dissociation constant :

$K_b=\frac{[C_2H_5NH_3^{+}][OH^-]}{[C_2H_5NH_2]}$ :

$K_b=\frac{x\times x}{(c-x)}$

$=\frac{0.00741\times 0.00741}{(0.100-0.00741)}$

$K_b=5.93\times 10^{-4}$

$5.93\times 10^{-4}$ was the $K_b$ of ethylamine value calculated by the student.

What is the empirical formula for a compound if a sample contains 3.72 g of P and 21.28 g of Cl

fenix001 [56]

M(P)=3.72 g
M(P)=31 g/mol

m(Cl)=21.28 g
M(Cl)=35.5 g/mol

n(P)=m(P)/M(P)
n(P)=3.72/31=0.12 mol

n(Cl)=m(Cl)/M(Cl)
n(Cl)=21.28/35.5=0.60 mol

P : Cl = 0.12 : 0.60 = 1 : 5

PCl₅ - is the empirical formula

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

This is an example of a food chain

Explanation:

Think of it as a chain reaction. The grass feeds and nourishes the prairie dog. Upon eating the prairie dog, the coyote gets the nutrients from both the grass the prairie dog ate and from the prairie dog itself.

The specific spatial arrangement of amino acid residues that are close to each other in the polypeptide chain is called______the

natulia [17]

Answer:

c. tertiary.

Explanation:

In this case, we can review the definition of each level of structuration in the proteins:

Primary structure

In the primary structure, the amino acids are linked by peptide bonds. That is, the order of the amino acids is the criterion that defines this type of structure.

Secondary structure

In the secondary structure, we have to look at the way in which the protein is folded. The options are:

-) Beta-laminar: A structure in which the protein has a planar shape.

-) Alpha-helix: A structure in which the protein has a cross-strand form.

Tertiary structure

In the tertiary structure, the R groups that the amino acids have in the primary structure can generate interactions with each other. Interactions such as hydrogen bridges, dipole-dipole, hydrophobic interactions. This makes the protein have a very specific three-dimensional structure, on which its function depends.

Quaternary structure

In the quaternary structure, several subunits may be attached, or there may be prostatic groups (metals that can help to attach various protein units).

With all these in mind, the deffinition that fits with the description in the question is the tertiary structure.

I hope it helps!
