Answer:

Chromatography uses chromatography paper which is filter paper that is made of cellulose, a polymer. Cellulose is polar, therefore it attracts water molecules, as well as other polar substances. As the solvent reacts with the paper, it competes for the attraction of the molecules being separated.

Why is it necessary to use a new salt bridge for each salt bridge for each electrochemical cell?

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

salt bridge balances the charge when electrons move from one half cell to another half cell.

Explanation:

Explanation: A salt bridge balances the charge when electrons move from one half cell to another half cell. During this process the salt bridge uses its electrolyte solution which further helps in balancing charges in both the half cells. ... Therefore, for each electrochemical cell a new salt bridge is used.

Which statement below about contrasting Hb and Mb is FALSE?

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

C. Hb binds O2 more tightly than Mb.

Explanation:

Hb and Mb are both oxygen carrier protiens which contain the heme group. Hb has 4 heme units in 1 moleucle which work via coperative effect. On the other hand, Mb has only one heme unit.

From above theory, statement A and B are correct.

Although the heme group of the Mb is identical to those of Hb, Mb has a higher affinity for carrying oxygen than hemoglobin.

Hence, Statement C is wrong.

Thats why the function of hemoglobin is to transport oxygen and that of myoglobin is to store oxygen.

When a curve is plotted between oxygen accepted and the pressure of the oxygen, Hb shows sigmoidal, whereas Mb shows hyperbolic oxygen saturation curves. The statement D is correct.

Bohr effect and various factors decribe the statement : Hb-oxygen binding is dependent on physiological changes in pH, whereas Mb-oxygen binding is not. The statement E is also correct.

An experiment shows that a 236 mL gas sample has a mass of 0.443 g at a pressure of 740 mmHg and a temperature of 22 ∘C. What is

aleksley [76]

Answer:

49.2 g/mol

Explanation:

Let's first take account of what we have and convert them into the correct units.

Volume= 236 mL x ( $\frac{1 L}{1000 mL}$ ) = .236 L

Pressure= 740 mm Hg x ( $\frac{1 atm}{760 mm Hg}$ )= 0.97 atm

Temperature= 22C + 273= 295 K

mass= 0.443 g

Molar mass is in grams per mole, or MM= $\frac{mass}{moles}$ or MM= $\frac{m}{n}$ . They're all the same.

We have mass (0.443 g) we just need moles. We can find moles with the ideal gas constant PV=nRT. We want to solve for n, so we'll rearrange it to be

n= $\frac{PV}{RT}$ , where R (constant)= 0.082 L atm mol-1 K-1

Let's plug in what we know.

n= $\frac{(0.97 atm)(0.236 L)}{(0.082)(295K)}$

n= 0.009 mol

Let's look back at MM= $\frac{m}{n}$ and plug in what we know.

MM= $\frac{0.443 g}{0.009 mol}$

MM= 49.2 g/mol

Methane reacts with chlorine in the presence of ultraviolet light

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

When a mixture of methane and chlorine is exposed to ultraviolet light - typically sunlight - a substitution reaction occurs and the organic product is chloromethane. CH 4 + Cl 2 → CH 3 Cl + HCl However, the reaction doesn't stop there, and all the hydrogens in the methane can in turn be replaced by chlorine atoms.
