A student can hold her breath for 94 seconds if another student records that the time she can hold her breath is 92 seconds, wha

Answer:  -2.13%

Explanation:

I will assume that the correct time is 94 seconds, since it is stated as a fact.  The measured time of 92 seconds is -2 seonds from the actual.  That gives a percent error of:

[(Measured-Actual)/Actual] or (-2/94) or -2.13%

In the first recrystallization, after the solid has been dissolved in warm acetone, the solution is allowed to cool slowly to ro
zvonat [6]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Explanation:

In the older procedure, the solution is cooled so quickly that the recrystallization can be less effective. By allowing the solution to cool slowly, the maximum amount of crystal is formed, and also the impurities are trapped, so the process is more controlled than by the older one.

Which of the following molecules or ions is polar? (20 POINTS)
taurus [48]

<u>For NO3- molecule(fig.1)</u>

1.  Bonds are created between elements with different electronegativity, most bonds would be polar. Bonds in NO3 are polar.

2. In the geometry of the molecule  bond polarities cancel out each other (since it is a vector) so NO3- ion molecule is non polar

3.   Nitrate (NO3-)ion  geometry would be trigonal planar

<u>For CCl4 molecule(fig.2)</u>

1. Bonds are created between elements with different electronegativity, most bonds would be polar. Bonds in CCl4 are polar.

2. It is a completely symmetrical molecule.

3.Carbon is the centre of CCl4 have four covalent bonds and it has no lone pairs. They are all equidistant the C-Cl bond polarities cancel out. So CCl4 molecule is non polar

<u>For NH3 molecule(fig.3)</u>

1. Bonds are created between elements with different electronegativity, most bonds would be polar. Bonds in NH3 molecule are polar.

2.  it has a pyramidal structure.

3. the individual N-H bond dipoles don't cancel out. This dipole moment for the molecule indicates that NH3 is a polar molecule

<u>For SF6 molecule(fig.4)</u>

1.F is more electronegative than S. So the bonds are polar.

2. The symmetry of the molecule is  symmetrical so that the dipole moments of bonds cancel correspond so the molecule is non-polar.

3. it has octahedral structure

During complete oxidation of the fatty acid CH3(CH2)14COOH, ________ molecules of acetyl-CoA are produced, and the fatty acid go
zimovet [89]

Answer:

During complete oxidation of the fatty acid CH3(CH2)14COOH, eight molecules of acetyl-CoA are produced, and the fatty acid goes through the β-oxidation cycle seven times.

Explanation:

In the β-oxidation of fatty acids, an acetyl-CoA molecule is removed from the fatty acid chain after every β-oxidation cycle that the fatty acid undergo, leaving behind a fatty acyl-CoA molecule shortened by two cabon atoms..

The removal of the acetyl-CoA molecule starts from the carboxyl end and shortens the fatty acid molecule by two carbon units. Successive β-oxidation cycles results in the complete oxidaton of the fatty acid molecle to acetyl -CoA molecules.

The compound CH3(CH2)14COOH, is a 16-carbon saturated fatty acid molecule known as palmitic acid.. It undergoes seven passes through the β-oxidation cycle to yield eight molecules of acetyl-CoA with each cycle yielding an acetyl-CoA molecule and a fatty acyl-CoA shortened by two carbon atoms. Finally, the seventh step yields two acetyl-CoA molecules.

A) Balance the equation below.
Advocard [28]

Answer:

254.7 g

Explanation:

Hg(ONC)2 -----------> Hg + N2 + 2CO

In every problem of stoichiometry, we must commence with writing the balanced reaction equation as a guide to our calculation. Once we have written the reaction equation, we can now proceed with the solution.

Amount of CO produced= mass of CO produced/ molar mass of CO

Molar mass of CO = 28 gmol-1

Mass of CO produced= 50.2g

Amount of CO produced= 50.2g/28gmol-1

Amount of CO produced= 1.79 moles of CO

From the reaction equation:

1 mole of Hg(ONC)2 produced 2 moles of CO

x moles of Hg(ONC)2 will produce 1.79 moles of CO

x= 1.79 × 1 / 2

x= 0.895 moles of Hg(ONC)2

Molar mass of Hg(ONC)2 = 284.624 g/mol

Mass of Hg(ONC)2 = number of moles × molar mass = 0.895 moles × 284.624 g/mol

Mass of Hg(ONC)2 = 254.7 g
