4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Heterotrophs cannot make their own food, so they must eat or absorb it. For this reason, heterotrophs are also known as consumers. Consumers include all animals and fungi and many protists and bacteria. They may consume autotrophs or other heterotrophs or organic molecules from other organisms

_________ is a systematic method of naming chemical compounds. This creates an unambiguous and consistent name for any chemical

Vlada [557]

Answer: IUPAC NOMENCLATURE

Explanation:

IUPAC stands for International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry. They devised a systematic method for naming compounds in order to create a uniform global unambiguous system of nomenclature hence making it easier for researchers to share information more freely without the hindrance of reporting the same compound using different names in different parts of the world thus creating confusion in chemical literature.

State whether the following statements are true or false. If false, explain why. (a) A reaction stops when equilibrium is reache

Elden [556K]

Answer:

(a) False;

(b) False;

(c) False;

(d) True.

Explanation:

(a) When equilibrium is reached, the forward reaction rate becomes equal to the reverse reaction rate, that's why the molarity of each species remains constant, but reactions don't stop.

(b) According to the principle of Le Chatelier, an increase in molarity of either reactants or products would lead to a disturbance of equilibrium. This disturbance would lead to the shift of equilibrium towards the side which would minimize such a disturbance.

(c) Equilibrium constant is only temperature-dependent, it's independent of molarity, pressure, volume etc. of any species present in the reaction.

(d) The greater the initial molarity of reactants, the more products can be formed, e. g., since the ratio of products to reactants should be kept constant, the larger the amount of reactants, the greater the amount of products formed to keep a constant ratio.

The theoretical yield of Cl2 from certain starting amounts of MnO2 and HCl was calculated as 60.25 g and 65.02 g, respectively.

user100 [1]

Answer:

c 43.38 g

Explanation:

The reaction between MnO2 and HCl can be represented by the following balanced equation:

MnO2 + HCl ---> Cl2 + MnCl2 + H2O

From the balanced equation, the theoretically required molar ratio of MnO2 to HCl is 1:1, therefore the yields would have been expected to be equal.

For the fact that HCl gives a higher yield (65.02g) than MnO2 (60.25g) according to the problem statement, HCl should be in excess, while the limiting reagent should be MnO2 .

Thus, the theoretical yield of Cl2 will be 60.25 g.

By definition, the percentage yield is given by

% Yield = (Actual Yield) / (Theoretical Yield),

This can be simplified to

Actual Yield = % Yield * Theoretical Yield

Plugging in the given values we have

Actual Yield = 72% * 60.25 = 43.38 g
