Calculate the Cal(kcal) in 1 cup of whole milk: 12 g of carbohydrate, 9 g of fat, and 9 g of protein.
laiz [17]
 Fat: 1 gram = 9 calories    Protein: 1 gram = 4 calories    Carbohydrates: 1 gram = 4 calories    Alcohol: 1 gram = 7 calories"
So, (12 g carbohydrates)*4 Cal=48 Cal; (9 g fat) *9 Cal=81 Cal; (9 g protein)*4 Cal=36 Cal
48 Cal + 81 Cal + 36 Cal = 165 Cal in one glass of milk

What substance is oxidized in the reaction Mg + Cu2+ — Mg2+ + Cu?
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Mg

Explanation:

Mg + Cu2+ — Mg2+ + Cu

Magnesium is oxidized because its oxidation state increased from 0 to +2 while Cu is reduced because its oxidation state decreased from +2 to 0.

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

<em>Consider the following reactions. </em>

4KI + 2CuCl₂  →   2CuI  + I₂  + 4KCl

the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced.

CO + H₂O   →  CO₂ + H₂

the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant  side and on product side it becomes  +4 so carbon get oxidized.

Na₂CO₃ + H₃PO₄  →  Na₂HPO₄ + CO₂ + H₂O

The oxidation state of carbon on reactant side is +4. while on product side is  also +4 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

H₂S + 2NaOH → Na₂S + 2H₂O

The oxidation sate of sulfur is -2 on reactant side and in product side it is also -2 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

Oxidizing agents:

Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.

Reducing agents:

Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized.

Calculate the mass of calcium chloride that contains 3.20 x 1024 atoms of chlorine.
frez [133]

Answer:

294.87 gm  CaCl_2

Explanation:

The computation of the  mass of calcium chloride is shown below:

But before that following calculations need to be done

Number of moles of chlorine atom is

= 3.20 × 10^24 ÷ 6.022 × 10^23

= 5.314 moles

As we know that

1 mole CaCl_2 have the 2 moles of chlorine atoms

Now 5.341 mole chloride atoms would be

= 1 ÷ 2 × 5.314

= 2.657 moles

Now

Mass of CaCl_2 = Number of moles × molar mass of  CaCl_2

= 2.657 moles × 110.98 g/mol

= 294.87 gm  CaCl_2
