The microscopes used today are just like the ones used by Leeuwenhoek and Hooke. True or false

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dmitry [639]2 years ago

Answer:

False

Explanation:

While we do know that A. Leeuwenhoek used a simple microscope that consisted of only 1 lens, Hooke used a compound microscope. Although, after trying a compound microscope, Hooke found out that it strained his eyes and continued to use a simple microscope for his <em>Micrographia</em>.

Thus, we can say that the (compound) microscopes used today are different than the (simple) microscope used by Hooke and Leeuwenhoek.

A small diamond, which is made of pure carbon, contains too many carbon atoms to count individually. Which is closest to the num
8090 [49]

The correct answer is option C, 5.02 x 10²² carbon atoms

Atomic mass of C = 12 g/mol

According to Avogadro, 1 mole of C has 6.023 x 10²³C atoms

Now 1 mole of C is equal to 12 g

Therefore, 12 g of C = 6.023 x 10²³ C atoms

1 g of C = \frac{6.023 x 10^2^3}{12} C atoms = 5.02 x 10²² C atoms

frez [133]

Purified Ara h 6 will be helpful for research into the immunological mechanisms underlying peanut allergy, including molecular and cellular studies, diagnostic IgE antibody testing, and clinical trials.

1.4% of children and 0.6% of adults in the United States suffer from the food allergy peanut. Approximately 1.8% of youngsters in the UK are allergic to peanuts. Food allergies to milk, eggs, and wheat are often outgrown by children, while allergies to peanuts are more persistent and frequently last into adulthood. As little as 0.4 g of peanut is required to cause milder allergic reactions like rashes, angioedema, and gastrointestinal problems. However, peanut is also one of the leading causes of severe, sometimes fatal anaphylactic reactions.

15 mL of acid 2 M was added to 20 mL of base 2 M into a calorimeter at room temperature (24 oC). The reaction mixture reached a
erik [133]

Answer:

here:

Explanation:

The changes in temperature caused by a reaction, combined with the values of the specific heat and the mass of the reacting system, makes it possible to determine the heat of reaction.

Heat energy can be measured by observing how the temperature of a known mass of water (or other substance) changes when heat is added or removed. This is basically how most heats of reaction are determined. The reaction is carried out in some insulated container, where the heat absorbed or evolved by the reaction causes the temperature of the contents to change. This temperature change is measured and the amount of heat that caused the change is calculated by multiplying the temperature change by the heat capacity of the system.

The apparatus used to measure the temperature change for a reacting system is called a calorimeter (that is, a calorie meter). The science of using such a device and the data obtained with it is called calorimetry. The design of a calorimeter is not standard and different calorimeters are used for the amount of precision required. One very simple design used in many general chemistry labs is the styrofoam "coffee cup" calorimeter, which usually consists of two nested styrofoam cups.

When a reaction occurs at constant pressure inside a Styrofoam coffee-cup calorimeter, the enthalpy change involves heat, and little heat is lost to the lab (or gained from it). If the reaction evolves heat, for example, very nearly all of it stays inside the calorimeter, the amount of heat absorbed or evolved by the reaction is calculated.

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer : O_2 is the oxidizing agent and Fe is the reducing agent.

Explanation :

Reducing agent : It is defined as the agent which helps the other substance to reduce and itself gets oxidized. Thus, it will undergo oxidation reaction.

Oxidizing agent : It is defined as the agent which helps the other substance to oxidize and itself gets reduced. Thus, it will undergo reduction reaction.

The balanced redox reaction is :

4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3

The half oxidation-reduction reactions are:

Oxidation reaction : Fe\rightarrow Fe^{3+}+3e^-

Reduction reaction : O_2+4e^-\rightarrow 2O^{2-}

In order to balance the electrons, we multiply the oxidation reaction by 4 and reduction reaction by 3 then added both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.

Oxidation reaction : 4Fe\rightarrow 4Fe^{3+}+12e^-

Reduction reaction : 3O_2+12e^-\rightarrow 6O^{2-}

4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3

In this reaction, 'Fe' is the reducing agent that loses an electron to another chemical species in a redox chemical reaction and itself gets oxidized and 'O_2' is the oxidizing agent that gain an electron to another chemical species in a redox chemical reaction and itself gets reduced.

Thus, O_2 is the oxidizing agent and Fe is the reducing agent.
