Chemical composition and function of iodized salt

Answer:

What is the chemical composition of iodized salt?

Iodized salt is a very cheap and good way of getting the necessary iodine. Ordinary table (cooking) salt is a chemical compound called "sodium chloride" (its chemical formula is NaCl). "Sodium iodide" (NaI) is added to the NaCl to make iodized salt.

Salt that has been iodized contains trace levels of sodium or potassium iodide. It's just regular salt sprinkled with potassium iodate. It has the same appearance and flavor! The bulk of table salt used currently is iodized, which has a number of advantages.

function of iodized salt
Iodized salt aids in the production of hormones that control heart rate and blood pressure. It also aids in the burning of unwanted fat deposits that may lead to heart disease. Salt maintains a healthy amount of hydration and electrolyte balance.

7 Coal was produced in the earth over millions of years. Which of the following is NOT a step in
svp [43]

Answer:

D. Time and pressure changes dead plant material to peat.

Explanation:

There are four steps in the production of coal: peat, lignite, bituminous and anthracite.

Peat: in this stage dead plants are oxidized to water and carbon dioxide and buried under sediments. The partial decomposition of plant matter due to the absence of oxygen is called peat. There is no factor of time and pressure that changes dead plant material to peat.

Lignite: Peat is subjected to heat, pressure, and time to form lignite.

Bituminous: More pressure in lignite removes all the traces of plant matter and form “soft coal”, bituminous coal.

Anthracite: It is the last stage, in which hard coal forms with the combined pressure and high temperature.

Hence, the correct answer is "D. Time and pressure changes dead plant material to peat."

Consider each possible structure of carbon dioxide, c o 2. Determine whether the structure is correct and justify your decision.
Mrrafil [7]

This structure is correct due to the total number of bonds and electrons

We employ the octet rule, which states that all atoms in a compound are expected to follow, to check the accuracy of any chemical structure. The octet rule is precisely satisfied for each atom in the depicted structure of carbon IV oxide. The valence shell of each atom in the molecule is surrounded by eight electrons. We may thus infer that this structure is accurate given the total number of bonds and electrons since CO2 has sixteen valence electrons.

It possesses a negative charge of 1.602176634 coulombs, the basic unit of electric charge, which is comparable to its negative charge. The rest mass of an electron is 9.1093837015 10^-31 kg, or just 1/1,836 the mass of a proton. An electron is therefore considered to have practically negligible mass in comparison to a proton or neutron, and its matter is not taken into consideration when calculating an atom's mass number.

9. Identify which properties of each of the following elements make them ideal for their uses. KIU A (a) copper and aluminum for
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Each element has its own unique properties. Each contains a different number of protons and neutrons, giving it its own atomic number and mass number. The atomic number of an element is equal to the number of protons that element contains. The mass number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons of that element. Therefore, it is possible to determine the number of neutrons by subtracting the atomic number from the mass number.

Hope that helps you!

Rate law equation The rate of a chemical reaction depends on the concentrations of the reactants. For the general reaction betwe
Studentka2010 [4]

Explanation:

In the following reaction;

aA+bB⇌cC+dD

A and B are the reactants while C and D are the products.

a, b, c and d are regarded as coefficients.

The dependence of the reaction on the concentration of the reactants is given by the rate law.

This is given by;

rate= k [A]^m [B]^n

where

K = Rate constant. Constant for the reaction at that temperature.

m = order of reeaction with respect to A

n = order of reaction with repsect to B

Overall order of reaction is given by m + n
