Answer:

Explanation:

Dalton's Atomic Theory explained a lot about matter, chemicals, and chemical reactions. Nevertheless, it was not entirely accurate, because contrary to what Dalton believed, atoms can, in fact, be broken apart into smaller subunits or subatomic particles. We have been talking about the electron in great detail, but there are two other particles of interest to us: protons and neutrons. We already learned that J. J. Thomson discovered a negatively charged particle, called the electron. Rutherford proposed that these electrons orbit a positive nucleus. In subsequent experiments, he found that there is a smaller positively charged particle in the nucleus, called a proton. There is also a third subatomic particle, known as a neutron.

Consider the balanced equation. 2HCl + Mg MgCl2 + H2 If 40.0 g of HCl react with an excess of magnesium metal, what is the theor

Serga [27]

Answer:

Theoretical yield of hydrogen is 1.11 g

Explanation:

Balanced equation, $Mg+2HCl\rightarrow MgCl_{2}+H_{2}$

As Mg remain present in excess therefore HCl is the limiting reagent.

According to balanced equation, 2 moles of HCl produce 1 mol of $H_{2}$ .

Molar mass of HCl = 36.46 g/mol

So, 40.0 g of HCl = $\frac{40.0}{36.46}moles$ of HCl = 1.10 moles of HCl

Hence, theoretically, number of moles of $H_{2}$ are produced from 1.10 moles of HCl = $(\frac{1}{2}\times 1.10)moles=0.550moles$

Molar mass of $H_{2}$ = 2.016 g/mol

So, theoretical yield of $H_{2}$ = $(0.550\times 2.016)g=1.11g$

An aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide is standardized by titration with a 0.170 M solution of perchloric acid. If 28.5 mL of b

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

0.095M

Explanation:

HClO4 + NaOH = NaClO4 + H2O

Concentration of acid CA= 0.170M

Concentration of base CB= ???

Volume of base VB= 28.5ml

Volume of acid VA= 16.0ml

Number of moles of acid nA= 1

Number of moles of base nB= 1

From

CAVA/CBVB= nA/nB

CB= CAVAnB/VBnA

CB= 0.170×16.0×1/28.5×1

CB= 0.095M

State 3 functions of enzymes in the body

9966 [12]

<span>Enzymes have three main characteristics. First, they increase the rate of a natural chemical reaction. Secondly, they typically only react with one specific substrate or reactant, and thirdly, enzyme activity is regulated and controlled within the cell through several different means, including regulation by inhibitors and activators. It is possible to group enzymes into different categories, including oxidases, transferases, hydrolases, lyaes, isomerases and ligases. In naming enzymes, the "-ase" suffix is often appended to the name of the substrate molecule upon which which the enzyme reacts. For example, the enzyme sucrase catalyzes the transformation of the sugar sucrose in to glucose and fructose. In this case, the "sucr-" suffix represents the molecule upon which the sucrase enzyme reacts. Not all enzymes are named according to this convention.</span>

Give the formula of each coordination compound. Include square brackets around the coordination complex. Do not include the oxid

kogti [31]

Answer:

a) K2[Ni(CN)4]

b) Na3[Ru(NH3)2(CO3)2]

c) Pt(NH3)2Cl2

Explanation:

Coordination compounds are named in accordance with IUPAC nomenclature.

According to this nomenclature, negative ligands end with the suffix ''ato'' while neutral ligands have no special ending.

The ions written outside the coordination sphere are counter ions. Given the names of the coordination compounds as written in the question, their formulas are provided above.

one side of a cube measures 0.53 cm. the mass of the cube is 0.92 g. what is the density of the cube

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

6.17 g/cm³

Explanation:

Data given:

one side of cube = 0.53 cm

mass of the cube is 0.92 g

density of the cube = ?

Solution:

First we will calculate for volume the cube

As we know all the sides or edges of a cube are equal so volume equation will be

So,

V = length x width x height

V = e³

as on side = 0.53 cm

then

V = (0.53 cm)³

V = 0.149 cm³

Now we will calculate density of cube

To calculate density, formula will be used

d = m/v . . . . . (1)

where

d = density

m = mass

v = volume

put values in above formula 1

d = 0.92 g / 0.149 cm³

d = 6.17 g/cm³

so. the density of cube = 6.17 g/cm³
