Why does silver iodide have a higher melting point than vanillin

Chemistry
1 answer:
MAVERICK [17]4 years ago
5 0
AgI has a higher melting point than vanillin because it is an ionic compound. The bonds are held more tightly together than in vanillin because it is a covalent compound. Ionic bonds have a higher melting point because the electrons are being transferred from one atom to the other.

By which mechanism would a steroid molecule diffuse into the cell?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer: Directly through the phospholipid membrane

Explanation:

The cell membrane consist of a phospholipid bilayers structure. In the interior of the membrane, the phospholipid tail are hydrophobic, which makes the cell membrane to be selectively permeable, it is permeable to non polar molecules and impermeable to polar molecules.

Because Steroids are fat soluble, non polar compounds, they can diffuse directly through the hydrophobic, non polar core of the phospholipid bilayer without the use of carrier proteins.

Why are conductors better than insulators to carry electric current
marysya [2.9K]

Conductors are better than insulators to carry electric current because they give the electricity the ability to flow freely throughout circuits. This helps the insulator to do its job of containing the electric charge. Examples of this would be a tv plug - the rubber surrounding the TV plug helps to keep the conductors (wires) in place, thus helping to facilitate an electric charge.

What mass of KNO3 would be needed to produce 18.4 liters of oxygen gas, measured at 1.50 x 10^3 kPa and 15 degrees Celsius?
Brut [27]

Answer:-

2328.454 grams

Explanation:-

Volume V = 18.4 litres

Temperature T = 15 C + 273 = 288 K

Pressure P = 1.5 x 10^ 3 KPa

We know universal Gas constant R = 8.314 L KPa K-1 mol-1

Using the relation PV = nRT

Number of moles of oxygen gas n = PV / RT

Plugging in the values

n = (1.5 x 10^3 KPa ) x ( 18.4 litres ) / ( 8.314 L KPa K-1 mol-1 x 288 K)

n = 11.527 mol

Now the balanced chemical equation for this reaction is

2KNO3 --> 2KNO2 + O2

From the equation we can see that

1 mol of O2 is produced from 2 mol of KNO3.

∴ 11.527 mol of O2 is produced from 2 x 11.527 mol of KNO3.

= 23.054 mol of KNO3

Molar mass of KNO3 = 39 x 1 + 14 x 1 + 16 x 3 = 101 grams / mol

Mass of KNO3 = 23.054 mol x 101 gram / mol

= 2328.454 grams
