Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Ions:

When an atom lose or gain electron ions are formed.

There are two types of ions anion and cation.

Anion:

When an atom gain electron negative charge is created and anion is formed.

X + e⁻  → X⁻

Cation:

When an atom lose electron positive charge is created and cation is formed.

X   →  X⁺ + e⁻

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e-

Mass= 9.10938356×10-31 Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

He constructed the glass tube and create vacuum in it. He applied electric current between electrodes. He noticed that a ray of particles coming from cathode to wards positively charged anode. This ray was cathode ray.

Properties of cathode ray:

The ray is travel in straight line.

The cathode ray is independent of composition of cathode.

When electric field is applied cathode ray is deflected towards the positively charged plate.

Hence it was consist of negatively charged particles.

Neutron and proton:

While neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P+  

Symbol of neutron= n0

What is the name of the element?

Answers

Final answer:

The element with the electronic configuration 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹104p⁶5s²4d¹105p⁵ is Iodine (I).

Explanation:

The electronic configuration provided, 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹104p⁶5s²4d¹105p⁵, corresponds to the element Iodine (I). Iodine is a member of the halogen group, situated in group 17 of the periodic table. This halogen is commonly known for its use in antiseptics and as a necessary component of the human diet.

Group 7A (or VIIA) of the periodic table are the halogens: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), and astatine (At). The name "halogen" means "salt former", derived from the Greek words halo- ("salt") and -gen ("formation").

Final answer:

The electron configuration corresponds to the element iodine (I), which is located in group 17 of the periodic table and has an atomic number of 53.

Explanation:

The electron configuration given in the question corresponds to an element's distribution of electrons across different orbitals. The full configuration is:

1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹4p⁶5s²4d¹5p⁵

When assessing this electronic arrangement, we look at the last energy levels or shells being filled, which are 5s, 4d, and 5p. By looking at the periodic table, we can match this configuration to an element.

Considering that the 5p sublevel contains 5 electrons, we look at the p-block of the periodic table, in the fifth period (row). Counting in from the left of the p-block (taking into account the s-block and d-block orbitals which come before in the period), we find that the element iodine (I) matches this electronic configuration.

Therefore, the last electron enters the 5p subshell, and with 5 electrons in 5p subshell, confirms that the element is iodine (I).

Iodine is located in group 17, which comprises the halogens, and it has an atomic number of 53. Thus, the name of the element with the given electron configuration is iodine.

Chemical equation:

HCl + Fe₂O₃  → FeCl₃ + H₂O

Balanced Chemical equation:

6HCl (aq)+ Fe₂O₃(s)  → 2FeCl₃(aq) + 3H₂O(l)

Ionic equation:

6H⁺(aq) + 6Cl⁻(aq) + 2Fe⁺³(aq) + 3O²⁻(aq) → 2Fe⁺³(aq) + 6Cl⁻(aq) + 3H₂O(l)

Net ionic equation:

6H⁺(aq) + 3O²⁻(aq) →  3H₂O(l)

The Cl⁻(aq) and Fe⁺³(aq) are spectator ions that's why these are not written in net ionic equation. The water can not be splitted into ions because it is present in liquid form.

Spectator ions:

These ions are same in both side of chemical reaction. These ions are cancel out. Their presence can not effect the equilibrium of reaction that's why these ions are omitted in net ionic equation.  

A sample of 30.00 grams of potassium phosphate was added to a solution containing 100.0 mL of 0.25 M calcium nitrate. Calcium phosphate was precipitated according to the following reaction. 2K3PO4(s) + 3Ca(NO3)2(aq) - Ca3(PO4)2(s) + 6KNO3(aq) 2.25 grams of Calcium phosphate were recovered. Calculate the theoretical yield and the percent yield.​

Answers

Answer:

Theoretical yield of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ = 19.67 g

Percent yield of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ = 11.4 %

Explanation:

Data given

Potassium Phosphate  K₃PO₄  = 30.00 g

calcium nitrate Ca(NO₃)₂ of 0.25 M  = 100.0 mL

Reaction given:

        2K₃PO₄(s) + 3Ca(NO₃)₂(aq) --------->  Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6KNO₃(aq)

Solution :

Part A :

To find the theoretical yield of Calcium phosphate

Look at the reaction :

             2K₃PO₄(s) + 3Ca(NO₃)₂(aq) ---------> Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6KNO₃(aq)

               2 mol          3 mol                               1 mol                6mol

 So,

2 mol of  2K₃PO₄ give 1 mole of Ca₃(PO₄)₂

if we represent mole in mass then

Molar Mass of K₃PO₄ =  3(39) + 31 + 4(16)

Molar Mass of K₃PO₄ =  212 g/mol

and

Molar mass of Ca₃(PO₄)₂  =  [ 3(40) + 2((31) + 4(16))]

Molar mass of Ca₃(PO₄)₂  =  [ 120 + 62 + 96] = 278 g/mol

Molar mass of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ = 278 g/mol

Now, if we write it in grams

  2K₃PO₄(s)    +      3Ca(NO₃)₂(aq) ---------> Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s)    +     6KNO₃(aq)

   2 mol                    3 mol                               1 mol                      6mol

  2 mol ( 212 g/mol)                                         1 mol (278 g/mol)

   424 g                                                               278 g

So from the above information we come to know that

    424 g of K₃PO₄ gives 278 g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂

then 30 g will give how much Ca₃(PO₄)₂ Calcium phosphate

             

Apply unity formula

    424 g of K₃PO₄278 g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂

       30 g of K₃PO₄x g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂

By doing cross multiplication and rearranging the above values

      x g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ = 278 g x  30 g / 424 g

      x g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ = 19.67 g

So,

30 g of K₃PO₄ will give 19.67 g Ca₃(PO₄)₂ theoretically.

Theoretical yield of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ = 19.67 g

Now,

Part B :

To find percent yield of Ca₃(PO₄)₂

Solution

Data given:

       Actual yield of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ = 2.25 g

       Theoretical yield of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ = 19.67 g

Formula to be used:

         Percentage yield = Actual yield/ theoretical yield x 100 %

Put values in Above formula

       Percent yield = 2.25 g / 19.67 g x 100 %

       Percent yield =  0.1144 / 100 %

      Percent yield = 11.4 %

So,

Percent yield of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ = 11.4 %

Explanation:

The concentration of hemoglobin in the blood is 15.2 g/dL. It we transform the g in mg and the dL in mL we have the value for the concentration to be 15200 mg / 100 mL.

Knowing the concentration we devise the following reasoning:

if there are         15200 mg of hemoglobin in 100 mL of blood

then there are            X mg of hemoglobin in 3.5 mL of blood

#learnwithBrainly

Taking into account the definition of mass per volume concentration and the change of units, 532 milligrams of hemoglobin are in  every 3.50 mL of the patient's blood.

You know that the concentration of hemoglobin in the blood is 15.2 [tex]\frac{g}{dL}[/tex]. So, in first place, you need to change units: the g in mg and the dL in mL.

You know that 1 dL= 100 mL and 1 g= 1000 mg. Then:

[tex]\frac{15.2 g}{dL}=\frac{15.2*1000 mg}{100 mL} =152 \frac{mg}{mL}[/tex]

Then you can apply the following rule of three: if 1 mL contains 152 mg of hemoglobin, 3.5 mL contains how much mass of hemoglobin?

[tex]mass of hemoglobin =\frac{3.5 mLx 152 mg}{1 mL}[/tex]

mass of hemoglobin= 532 mg

Finally, 532 milligrams of hemoglobin are in  every 3.50 mL of the patient's blood.

Determine the type of reaction: H2O + C16H17NaO14 = CO2 + H20 + C2H3NaO3?
A.) Synthesis
B.) Decomposition
C.) Single Replacement
D.) Double Replacement

Answers

Answer:

c

Explanation:

Answer:

The correct option is B) Decomposition.

Explanation:

In a decomposition reaction, a single substance decomposes, producing two or more different substances. That is, two or more substances are formed in this type of reactions from a compound. The atoms that form a compound are separated to give the products according to the formula:

AB → A + B

There are 3 types of decomposition reactions, depending on the external factor that can promote the decomposition of the molecule into simpler substances:

Catalysis: Decomposition is caused by a catalyst.Thermal decomposition: Decomposition occurs by the application of heat .Electrolytic decomposition or electrolysis: The decomposition is produced by the application of electric current.

In this case a decomposition reaction occurs, where C₁₆H₁₇NaO₁₄ decomposes to give carbon dioxide (CO₂) and C₂H₃NaO₃.

Another option may have been chemical synthesis, which involves the combination of two or more substances and results in the formation of a substance.  But in this case you can see that the water does not react (it appears in the reagents and in the products). This means that it helps with the decomposition mentioned previously.

So, the correct option is B) Decomposition.

Final answer:

Chemistry tests like blood tests for plasma analysis generally use tubes containing K2EDTA, followed by centrifuging. Urinalysis, on the other hand, uses disposable test strips without prior sample preparation.

Explanation:

Chemistry tests that are not stat (immediate) are typically drawn in various types of tubes depending on the tests to be carried out. For tests that require plasma, blood samples are usually collected into tubes containing K2EDTA and then centrifuged to obtain plasma.

The plasma samples may sometimes be quenched with methanol before analysis. This is different from urinalysis, where physicians often use disposable test strips to measure the amounts of various substances in a patient's urine, without the need for any preparation before analysis.

What is the volume of 40g of sugar given it’s listed density

Answers

Answer:

25.157 cm³

Explanation:

Data Given:

Mass of Sugar (m) = 40g

Density of sugar given in literature = 1.59 g/cm³

Volume of Sugar = ?

The formula will be used is

                              d = m/v ........................................... (1)

where

D is density

m is the mass

v is the volume

So

Rearrange the Equation (1)

                              d x v = m

                               v = m/ d         ................................................ (2)

put the given values in Equation  (2)

                       v = 40g / 1.59 g/cm³

                       v = 25.157 cm³

volume of 40 g of sugar = 25.157 cm³

Final answer:

To calculate the volume of 40g of sugar, divide the mass by the substance's density, which is not provided in the question. An example calculation with a hypothetical density of 1.59 g/cm³ gives a volume of approximately 25.16 cm³.

Explanation:

The volume of a substance can be calculated using its mass and density. To calculate the volume of 40g of sugar, we need to know the density of sugar. Unfortunately, the density is not provided in the question. However, we can use the method of conversion once the density is known. If the density of sugar was, for example, 1.59 g/cm3 (which is hypothetical in this case), the volume would be calculated as follows:

Volume = Mass / Density

Volume = 40g / 1.59 g/cm³

Volume ≈ 25.16 cm³

Ensure to substitute the correct density value of sugar in the same units to get the accurate volume.

A student was given two clear liquids; a colorless liquid and a dark-blue liquid. The student was asked to combine the liquids in a beaker and record observations. Which of the following results, if true, would provide the best evidence that a chemical change took place when the liquids were combined

1The resulting mixture was cloudy.
2The total volume of the mixture was equal to the sum of the initial volumes.
3The resulting liquid was light blue.
4The liquids formed two separate layers in the beaker.

Answers

Answer:

1. The resulting mixture was cloudy.

Explanation:

There are 5 observations that can be observed when a chemical change takes place:

1. Color change.

2. Temperature change.

3. Formation of precipitate.

4. Production of gas.

5. Light Emission.

1st option clearly implies that a precipitate has been formed, which according  to the 3rd point as mentioned above is an evidence of a chemical change.

3rd option shows a color change but is not the best evidence because it might also be that dilution has taken place, which isn't a chemical change. Hence, it isn't the best evidence.

Therefore, 1st option is the best choice.

3 The resulting liquid was light blue.

Of the ten characteristics of chemical reactions, the occurrence of color changes is the characteristic that is most easily seen and known quickly, so the third choice is the most appropriate answer.

Further Explanation

Chemical changes are changes in a substance or material that causes the formation of new substances. The characteristics of chemical change are: new types of substances are formed, substances that change cannot return to their original form, followed by changes in chemical properties through chemical reactions. During chemical changes, the mass of the substance before the reaction is the same as the mass of the substance after the reaction.

Different chemical reactions are used together in chemical synthesis to produce the desired compound product. In biochemistry, a series of chemical reactions are catalyzed by enzymes to form metabolic pathways, where synthesis and decomposition that are normally not possible in cells are carried out.

Chemical properties are properties for which chemical changes are needed.

What is the specific heat of an unknown substance if a 2.50 g sample releases 12 calories as its
temperature changes from 25°C to 20°C?

Answers

Taking into account the definition of calorimetry, the specific heat of the unknown substance is 0.96 [tex]\frac{calories}{gC}[/tex].

Calorimetry

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

Sensible heat is defined as the amount of heat that a body absorbs or releases without any changes in its physical state (phase change).

So, the equation that allows to calculate heat exchanges is:

Q = c× m× ΔT

where

Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m. c: specific heat substance. ΔT is the temperature variation.

Specific heat of an unknown substance

In this case, you know:

Q= - 12 caloriesc= ?m= 2.50 gΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial= 20 C - 25 C= - 5 C

Replacing in the expression to calculate heat exchanges:

-12 calories= c× 2.50 g× (-5 C)

Solving:

-12 calories÷ [2.50 g× (-5 C)]= c

0.96 [tex]\frac{calories}{gC}[/tex]= c

Finally, the specific heat of the unknown substance is 0.96 [tex]\frac{calories}{gC}[/tex].

q = mcΔT

where:

q is the amount of heat transferred,m is the mass of the substance,ΔT is the change in temperature.

To find the specific heat, rearrange the formula to solve for c:

c = q / (mΔT)

In this example, the given values are:

q = -12 cal (since the heat is released, it is negative),m = 2.50 g,ΔT = 20°C - 25°C = -5°C (since the temperature decreased, ΔT is negative).

Plugging in these values gives:

c = -12 cal / (2.50 g x -5°C)

c = 12 cal / (12.5 g°C)

c = 0.96 cal/g°C

The specific heat of the substance is therefore 0.96 cal/g°C.

A female bear leaves her bear cubs in their den to go out in search of food. She travels one mile in 30 minutes, heading east. She travels quickly at first, but then she becomes tired and begins moving more slowly. She finds no food, so she then heads north for another 10 minutes. She finds a river so she is able to catch a few fish for her bear cubs. She then turns around and heads back toward her den. She travels southwest and returns home to feed her cubs.

Identify and describe all points of acceleration in the scenario about the bear and her cubs.
Make sure to explain why each example is a point of acceleration.

Answers

Answer:

Points of acceleration:

1. When female bear goes quickly

2. After becoming tired, when she becomes slow

3. When she changes direction from east to north

4.When she slows down when she reaches the river bed

5. When she turns around

6.When she increases speed to travel southwest to return home

7. When she comes to a stop at home

Explanation:

1. When she is going quickly she is increasing her velocity thus positively accelerating

2. When she becomes slow, she is having negative acceleration.

3. When there is a change in direction of velocity there is an acceleration.

4. Again negative acceleration when she comes to a stop at the river bed

5. Turning around to the southwest direction requires acceleration

6. To increase the velocity to reach home, positive acceleration

7. To decrease the velocity to stop upon reaching home, negative acceleration

Why are electromagnetic waves used instead of sound waves?

Answers

Answer: Electromagnetic waves are not like sound waves because they do not need molecules to travel. This means that electromagnetic waves can travel through air, solid objects and even space. This is how astronauts on spacewalks use radios to communicate. Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic wave.

Explanation:

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves can travel in vacuums.

Explanation:

Scientists use different types of telescopes to find and study supernovas. Some telescopes use visible light to observe the supernova's colors, while others study the X-rays and gamma rays dispersed in the explosion. These electromagnetic waves are used because electromagnetic waves can travel in vacuums, like space, whereas sounds waves cannot. In addition, the electromagnetic spectrum travels at the speed of light (much faster than sound waves), can be absorbed, and are not created by physical vibrations.

the building blocks of the universe are called ______.

1)ions
2)elements
3)compounds
4)nuclei ​

Answers

"Nuclei " are called as building blocks of the universe.

Option: D

Explanation:

Smallest unit of this universe was considered to be an atom but “Rutherford 's Nuclear Model of Atom” in 1911 discovered nucleus which is small and heavy positively charged body present in center of atom. An atom also have extra nuclear part which is space around nucleus, where electrons (negative charged) are distributed. Nucleus is contained with protons (positive charged) and neutrons (neutral) which are definitely very smaller than nuclei but as a building unit or block of the universe nuclei is considered.
