Students in class argue about whether salt (NaCl) or water (H2O) has stronger intramolecular forces. Which argument is BEST?

Yanka [14]2 years ago

Since intermolecular forces is stronger in a solid than a liquid, then NaCl has stronger intermolecular forces than H2O.

Intermolecular forces exists between molecules of the same or different kinds. Water has a dipole moment hence it can interact effectively with the ions in NaCl. This leads to an ion dipole interaction that results in the dissolution of NaCl in H2O.

NaCl is a solid and water is a liquid. Since intermolecular forces is stronger in a solid than a liquid, then NaCl has stronger intermolecular forces than H2O.

Hence, the best argument that compares the intermolecular interactions in water and NaCl is; salt is a solid and water is a liquid, so water has stronger intramolecular forces.

When co2 levels are low and o2 levels are high, rubisco adds an o2 molecule to rubp. what are the consequences of this reaction?
marissa [1.9K]
Rubisco is an important enzyme that helps in making lifeless carbon of carbon dioxide into organic molecules. Rubisco takes carbon dioxide and attaches it to ribulose bisphosphate, a short sugar chain with five carbon atoms that has rubp as its shortcut. Rubisco then clips the lengthened chain into to polyglycerate pices, which are pretty flexible molecules and are also used in the feeding of the plant. Most of it is used in the photosynthesis pathway, but some of it is used to make sucrose (table sugar) to feed the rest of the plant, or stored away in the form of starch for later use. Hence, rubisco is crucial in the storing of the energy that is created from photosynthesis.

Describe the double circulation system of the human body
Alika [10]

Answer:

we have two loops in our body in which blood circulates. One is oxygenated, meaning oxygen rich, and the other is deoxygenated, which means it has little to no oxygen, but a lot of carbon dioxide.

The teacher tells your group to make a stock solution of sodium chloride, and then diluting it to
sergejj [24]

The idea here is that you need to figure out how many moles of magnesium chloride,

MgCl

2

, you need to have in the target solution, then use this value to determine what volume of the stock solution would contain this many moles.

As you know, molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute, which in your case is magnesium chloride, divided by liters of solution.

c

=

n

V

So, how many moles of magnesium chloride must be present in the target solution?

c

=

n

V

⇒

n

=

c

⋅

V

n

=

0.158 M

⋅

250.0

⋅

−

3

L

=

0.0395 moles MgCl

2

Now determine what volume of the target solution would contain this many moles of magnesium chloride

c

=

n

V

⇒

V

=

n

c

V

=

0.0395

moles

3.15

moles

L

=

0.01254 L

Rounded to three sig figs and expressed in mililiters, the volume will be

V

=

12.5 mL

So, to prepare your target solution, use a

12.5-mL

sample of the stock solution and add enough water to make the volume of the total solution equal to

250.0 mL

.

This is equivalent to diluting the

12.5-mL

sample of the stock solution by a dilution factor of

20

.

Baking soda (NaHCO3) can be added to a fruit mix solution to create a carbonated drink. An example is the reaction between bakin
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

74.4 ml

Explanation:

          C₆H₈O₇(aq) + 3NaHCO₃(s) => Na₃C₆H₅O₃(aq + 3CO₂(g) + 3H₂O(l)

Given     15g = 15g/84g/mol = 0.1786mole Sodium Bicarbonate

From equation stoichiometry 3moles NaHCO₃ is needed for each mole citric acid or, moles of citric acid needed is 1/3 of moles sodium bicarbonate used.

Therefore, for complete reaction of 0.1786 mole NaHCO₃ one would need 1/3 of 0.1786 mole citric acid or 0.0595 mole H-citrate.

The question is now what volume of 0.8M H-citrate solution would contain 0.0595mole of the H-citrate? This can be determined from the equation defining molarity. That is => Molarity = moles solute / Liters of solution

=> Volume (Liters) = moles citric acid / Molarity of citric acid solution

=> Volume needed in liters = 0.0.0595 mole/0.80M = 0.0744 Liters or 74.4 ml
