What is the complete balanced equation for the reaction that occurs when lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) is heated?

1 answer:

7 0

When heating lithium carbonate (Li2CO3), it will dissociate to Li2O and Co2. So the balanced chemical equation of this reaction is Li2CO3 = Li2O + CO2.

A 57.0 mL sample of a 0.120 M potassium sulfate solution is mixed with 35.5 mL of a 0.118 M lead(II) acetate solution and the fo

Katarina [22]

Answer:

Limiting reagent = lead(II) acetate

Theoretical yield = 1.2704 g

% yield = 78.09 %

Explanation:

Considering:

$Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

Or,

$Moles =Molarity \times {Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

Given :

For potassium sulfate :

Molarity = 0.120 M

Volume = 57.0 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 57.0×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of potassium sulfate:

$Moles=0.120 M \times {57.0\times 10^{-3}}\ moles$

Moles of potassium sulfate = 0.00684 moles

For lead(II) acetate :

Molarity = 0.118 M

Volume = 35.5 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 35.5×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of lead(II) acetate :

$Moles=0.118 \times {35.5\times 10^{-3}}\ moles$

Moles of lead(II) acetate = 0.004189 moles

According to the given reaction:

$K_2SO_4_{(aq)}+Pb(C_2H_3O_2)_2_{(aq)}\rightarrow 2KC_2H_3O_2_{(s)}+PbSO_4_{(aq)}$

1 mole of potassium sulfate react with 1 mole of lead(II) acetate

0.00684 moles potassium sulfate react with 0.00684 mole of lead(II) acetate

Moles of lead(II) acetate = 0.004189 moles

Limiting reagent is the one which is present in small amount. Thus, lead(II) acetate is limiting reagent. ( 0.004189 < 0.00684)

The formation of the product is governed by the limiting reagent. So,

1 mole of lead(II) acetate gives 1 mole of lead(II) sulfate

0.004189 mole of lead(II) acetate gives 0.004189 mole of lead(II) sulfate

Molar mass of lead(II) sulfate = 303.26 g/mol

Mass of lead(II) sulfate = Moles × Molar mass = 0.004189 × 303.26 g = 1.2704 g

Theoretical yield = 1.2704 g

Given experimental yield = 0.992 g

<u>% yield = (Experimental yield / Theoretical yield) × 100 = (0.992/1.2704 g) × 100 = 78.09 %</u>

Give below are the four mixtures. Choose the correct one which can be separated by winnowing. (i) soybean and chickpeas (ii) whe

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Banana wafers and chips

Explanation:

Winnowing is the process of separating heavier and lighter components of a mixture by blowing air through the mixture. This implies that the relative weight of the particles in the mixture determines whether they can be separated by winnowing or not.

However, chips are heavier than wafers. wafers refer to a very light snack which is easily blown away by a current of air. Hence banana chips and wafers can be separated using the method of winnowing.

An inhibitor is added to an enzyme-catalyzed reaction at a concentration of 26.7 μM. The Vmax remains constant at 50.0 μM/s, but

fomenos

Using the Michaelis-Menten equation competitive inhibition, the Inhibition constant, Ki of the inhibitor is 53.4 μM.

<h3>What is the Ki for the inhibitor?</h3>

The Ki of an inhibitor is known as the inhibition constant.

The inhibition is a competitive inhibition as the Vmax is unchanged but Km changes.

Using the Michaelis-Menten equation for inhibition:

Kma = Km/(1 + [I]/Ki)

Making Ki subject of the formula:

Ki = [I]/{(Kma/Km) - 1}

where:

Kma is the apparent Km due to inhibitor
Km is the Km of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction
[I] is the concentration of the inhibitor

Solving for Ki:

where

[I] = 26.7 μM

Km = 1.0

Kma = (150% × 1 ) + 1 = 2.5

Ki = 26.7 μM/{(2.5/1) - 1)

Ki = 53.4 μM

Therefore, the Inhibition constant, Ki of the inhibitor is 53.4 μM.
