3 valence electrons are transferred in the formation of the compound potassium nitride because nitrogen needs 3 valence electron to become stable, or to have the electron configuration of noble Gases.

Nitrogen requires 3 electrons to have a total of 8 valence electrons.Each potassium atom will transfer one electron.A total of 3 potassium atoms and one nitrogen atom will be involved  in the  formation of a formula unit of potassium nitride.

When 28.0 g of acetylene reacts with hydrogen, 24.5 g of ethane is produced. What is the percent yield of C2H6 for the reaction?
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Y=75.6\%

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since no information about the reacting hydrogen is given, we can assume that it completely react with the 28.0 g of acetylene to yield ethane. In such a way, via the 1:1 mole ratio between acetylene (molar mass = 26 g/mol) and ethane (molar mass = 30 g/mol), we compute the yielded grams, or the theoretical yield of ethane as shown below:

m_{C_2H_6}^{theoretical}=28.0gC_2H_2*\frac{1molC_2H_2}{26gC_2H_2}*\frac{1molC_2H_6}{1molC_2H_2}  *\frac{30gC_2H_6}{1molC_2H_6}\\ \\m_{C_2H_6}^{theoretical}=32.3gC_2H_6

Hence, by knowing that the percent yield is computed via the actual yield (24.5 g) over the theoretical yield, we obtain:

Y=\frac{24.5g}{32.3g}*100\%\\ \\Y=75.6\%

Best regards.

Describe the many different forms of energy involved with stretching and releasing a rubber band. What other processes are simil
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Conversion of kinetic energy to potential energy (chemo mechanical energy)

In the state of rest, the rubber is a tangled mass of long chained cross-linked polymer that due to their disorderliness are in a state of increased entropy. By pulling on the polymer, the applied kinetic energy stretches the polymer into straight chains, giving them order and reducing their entropy. The stretched rubber then has energy stored in the form of chemo mechanical energy which is a form of potential energy

Conversion of the stored potential energy in the stretched to kinetic energy

By remaining in a stretched condition, the rubber is in a state of high potential energy, when the force holding the rubber in place is removed, due to the laws of thermodynamics, the polymers in the rubber curls back to their state of "random" tangled mass releasing the stored potential energy in the process and doing work such as moving items placed in the rubber's path of motion such as an object that has weight, w then takes up the kinetic energy 1/2×m×v² which can can result in the flight of the object.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:C.He should locate the chloroform stored in a dark container in chemical storage and should take it to the fume hood to pour.

Explanation:

The statement of the question clearly states that chloroform is sensitive to light and it's vapour is toxic.

If a substance is sensitive to light, then it must be stored in a dark bottle. This is because. If a substance that is sensitive to light is stored in a transparent container, it may be decomposed by light.

Being a substance whose fumes are toxic, Malik should pour the liquid in a fumes hood so that he does not inhale the fumes.

A scientist performs an experiment in which they create an artificial cell with a selectively permeable membrane through which o
lozanna [386]

Answer:

Water moves into the cell

Explanation:

As shown in the question above, the cell is high in glucose and placed in a glass filled with water. This cell has a semi permeable membrane that allows only water to pass through, as the concentration of water within the cell is low, the cell will attempt to strike a balance with the medium it is inserted into. For this reason, what is likely to happen is the passage of water from the most concentrated to the least concentrated medium, that is, the water will pass from the cup to the cell.

water moves into the cell through osmosis.during osmosis water moves from a region of low concentration of solute to a region of high concentration of solute.the glucose introduced into the cell makes it more concentrated.

In this case the cell is hypertonic and water would enter into the cell through the semi permeable membrane.this membrane allows water to pass through but not glucose.this movement of water into the cell causes the cell to become turgid.
