Answer:

d. The formation of a covalent bond between two amino acids

Explanation:

In a chemical reaction, a substance transforms into another with different chemical properties and a different formula. Bonds are created and/or destroyed. It must obey the law of conservation of mass and the law of conservation of elements.

Which of the following is a chemical reaction?

a. Making a hydrogen bond between a water molecule and a sugar molecule. NO. This is a physical change in which sugar dissolves in water but both their chemical identities remain the same. The hydrogen bond is a force of attraction and not a real bond in which electrons are gained, lost or shared.

b. The melting of ice. NO. This is a physical change. Solid water turns into liquid water but the identity of the molecules is the same.

c. Changing a carbon atom to a nitrogen atom by radioactive decay. NO. This is a nuclear reaction in which a new element appears but it is not a chemical reaction because it does not fulfill the law of conservation of elements.

d. The formation of a covalent bond between two amino acids. YES. A new bond is created and a protein dimer is formed.

How many grams do 6.534e+24 molecules of phosphoric acid weigh?

fredd [130]

Answer:

1,063 grams H₃PO₄

Explanation:

To find the mass of phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄), you should (1) convert molecules to moles (via Avogadro's number) and then (2) convert moles to grams (via molar mass from periodic table).

Molar Mass (H₃PO₄): 3(1.008 g/mol) + 30.974 g/mol + 4(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mas (H₃PO₄): 97.99 g/mol

6.534 x 10²⁴ molecules H₃PO₄ 1 mole 97.99 g
--------------------------------------------- x ------------------------------------- x --------------
6.022 x 10²³ molecules 1 mole

= 1,063 grams H₃PO₄

I need help understanding this problem and the answer.

victus00 [196]

Answer:-

1440 cases

Explanation: -

We are told that 1 pallet = 45 bundles.

We are also told that 1 bundle = 32 cases.

We need to find how many cases are there in 1 pallet.

1 pallet = 45 bundles (First conversion factor)

= 45 x 32 cases (second conversion factor)

=1440 cases

Thus we see that 1 pallet has 1440 cases. We needed to use two conversion factors for this, first to convert pallet to bundle and second to convert bundle to cases.

The half-reaction occurring at the cathode in the balanced reaction shown below is __________?2Ag(s) + 1/2 O2(g) + 2H+(aq) → 2Ag

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Correct choice are C and D (they are both, the same).

Explanation:

Cathode is the positive(+) electrode where a reduction occurs.

Reduction is the chemical reaction where the oxidation state is reduced.

2Ag(s) + 1/2 O2(g) + 2H+(aq) → 2Ag+(aq) + H2O (l)

A. 2H2O (l) → O2 (g) + 4H+ (aq) + 4e-

B. 2Ag (s) → 2Ag+ (aq) + 2e-

C. 1/2 O2 (g) + 2H+ (aq) + 2e- → H2O (l)

D. 1/2 O2 (g) + 2H+ (aq) + 2e- → H2O (l)

C or D, are ok. They are the same equation.

Oxygen from ground state reduce the oxidation state from 0 to -2

1. solute is the substance that is being dissolve,while solvent is dissolving medium

2.saturated is solution that contain maximum amount of solut that capable of being dissolve and supersaturated is solution that contain less amount or medium of solut that capable being dissolve : example vinger

3. is a number placed in front of a chemical symbol or formula. It shows how many atoms or molecules of the substance are involved in the reaction. For example, two molecules of hydrogen would be written as 2 H2, and two molecules of water would be written 2 H2O . yes it's can be change only in caseWhen you balance an equation you can only change the coefficients
