What factors causes zinc to decrease and increase? Not the zinc in the human body.

1 answer:

5 0

Zinc deficiency affects the skin and gastrointestinal tract; brain and central nervous system, immune, skeletal, and reproductive systems. Zinc deficiency in humans is caused by reduced dietary intake, inadequate absorption, increased loss, or increased body system use. The most common cause is reduced dietary intake.

A sample of CO2 weighing 86.34g contains how many molecules?

irakobra [83]

Answer:

1.181 × 10²⁴ molecules CO₂

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry - Atomic Structure</u>

Reading a Periodic Table
Using Dimensional Analysis
Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

86.34 g CO₂

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversion</u>

Avogadro's Number

Molar Mass of C - 12.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of CO₂ - 12.01 + 2(16.00) = 44.01 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

<u /> $86.34 \ g \ CO_2(\frac{1 \ mol \ CO_2}{44.01 \ g \ CO_2} )(\frac{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ molecules \ CO_2}{1 \ mol \ CO_2} )$ = 1.18141 × 10²⁴ molecules CO₂

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>We are given 4 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.</em>

1.18141 × 10²⁴ molecules CO₂ ≈ 1.181 × 10²⁴ molecules CO₂

The following reaction shows calcium chloride reacting with silver nitrate.

adell [148]

Grams of Ca(NO₃)₂ produced : 0.985 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products.

Reaction

CaCl₂ + 2AgNO₃ → 2AgCl + Ca(NO₃)₂

MW AgNO₃ : 107.9+14+3.16=169.9

mol AgNO₃ :

$\tt \dfrac{2}{169.9}=0.012$

mol ratio Ca(NO₃)₂ : AgNO₃ = 1 : 2, so mol Ca(NO₃)₂ :

$\tt \dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.012=0.006$

MW Ca(NO₃)₂ : 40.1+2.14+6.16=164.1 g/mol

mass Ca(NO₃)₂ :

$\tt 0.006\times 164.1=0.985$

Please Help! I just started balancing equations and my teacher gave me this. Thanks in advance! :D

Alenkasestr [34]

So you need to put numbers before each compound to make sure there are the exact same number of elements on each side. If you put a 4 before NH4 there are 4 Nitrogen and now 16 hydrogen. I just played around with numbers and guessed until I got them even.

A student is trying to develop a model of an instant heat pack. What is the essential characteristic of the chemical reaction th

Lana71 [14]

The standard enthalpy of reaction should be negative.

<h3>What is enthalpy?</h3>

A thermodynamic quantity equivalent to the total heat content of a system. It is equal to the internal energy of the system plus the product of pressure and volume.

Inside the heat pack are two chemicals that get mixed when you smush them together. As they mix, some weak bonds are broken, which takes a little bit of energy. But new, stronger bonds form which release energy. Releasing that energy causes the surroundings to heat up.

Hence, option B is correct.
