Hey there.
Sodium potassium pump is called an electrogenic as it pumps ions out of the cell. 

Hope this helps :))

A particular sheet of paper measures 8.5 × 6.5 inches. What is the surface area of one side of the paper in cm2? (2.54 cm = 1 in
Zanzabum
<span>In order to calculate the surface are of the sheet of paper in square centimeters you must first convert the dimensions of the paper to centimeters. You can do this by multiplying 8.5 * 2.54 and 6.5 * 2.54. The paper measures 21.59cm by 16.51cm. To find the surface area you multiply the dimensions of the paper to equal 356.4509cm2</span>

If you have 10.0 grams of citric acid with enough baking soda (nahco3 how many moles of carbon dioxide can you produce?
kap26 [50]
Easy stoichiometry conversion :)

So, for stoichiometry, we always start with our "given". In this case, it would be the 10.0 grams of NaHCO3. This unit always goes over 1.

So, our first step would look like this:

10.0
------
  1

Next, we need to cancel out grams to get to moles. To do this, we will do grams of citric acid on the BOTTOM of the next step, so it cancels out. This unit in grams will be the mass of NaHCO3, which is 84.007. Then, we will do our unit of moles on top. Since this is unknown, it will be 1.

So, our 2nd step would look like this:

1 mole CO2
-----------------
84.007g NaHCO3

When we put it together: our complete stoichiometry problem would look like this:

10.0g NaHCO3     1mol CO2
---------------------- x -------------------------
            1                  84.007g NaHCO3

Now to find our answer, all we need to do is:
Multiply the two top numbers together (which is 10.0)
Multiply the two bottom numbers together (Which is 84.007)

And then....

Divide the top answer by the bottom answer.

10.0/84.007 is 0.119

So, from 10.0 grams of citric acid, we have 0.119 moles of CO2.

Hope I could help!

Describe how you would prepare exactly 100 mL of 0.109 M picolinate buffer, pH 5.61. Possible starting materials are pure picoli
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

1.342g of picolinic acid and 6.743mL of 1.0M NaOH diluting the mixture to 100.0mL

Explanation:

<em>The pKa of the picolinic acid is 5.4.</em>

Using Henderson-Hasselbalch formula for picolinic-picolinate buffer:

pH = pKa + log [Picolinate] / [Picolinic]

<em>Where [] could be taken as moles of each species</em>

<em />

5.61 = 5.4 + log [Picolinate] / [Picolinic]

0.21 = log [Picolinate] / [Picolinic]

1.62181 = [Picolinate] / [Picolinic] <em>(1)</em>

<em></em>

Now, both picolinate and picolinic acid will be:

0.100L * (0.109mol / L) =

0.0109 moles = [Picolinate] + [Picolinic] <em>(2)</em>

<em></em>

First, as we will start with picolinic acid, we need add:

0.0109 moles picolinic acid * (123.10g/mol) = 1.342g of picolinic acid

Now, replacing (2) in (1):

1.62181 = 0.0109 moles - [Picolinic] / [Picolinic]

1.62181 [Picolinic] = 0.0109 moles - [Picolinic]

2.62181 [Picolinic] = 0.0109 moles

[Picolinic] = 4.157x10⁻³ moles

And:

[Picolinate] = 0.0109 - 4.157x10⁻³ moles =

<h3>6.743x10⁻³ moles</h3><h3 />

To obtain these moles of picolinate ion we need to make the reaction of the picolinic acid with NaOH:

Picolinic acid + NaOH → Picolinate + Water

<em>That means to obtain 6.743x10⁻³ moles of picolinate ion we need to add 6.743x10⁻³ moles of NaOH</em>

<em />

6.743x10⁻³ moles of NaOH that is 1.0M are, in mL:

6.743x10⁻³ moles * (1L / 1mol) = 6.743x10⁻³L * 1000 =

<h3>6.743mL of the 1.0M NaOH must be added</h3><h3 />

Thus, we obtain the desire moles of picolinate and picolinic acid to obtain the buffer we want, the last step is:

<h3>Dilute the mixture to 100mL, the volume we need to prepare</h3>

Oxalic acid is a diprotic acid. calculate the percent of oxalic acid (h2c2o4) in a solid given that a 0.7984-g sample of that so
vlada-n [284]
This method of quantitative determination of percent purity is titrimetric reactions. These reactions most commonly involve neutralization reactions between an acid and a base. Then, we look at the neutralization reaction:

H₂C₂O₄ + 2 NaOH ⇒ Na₂C₂O₄ + 2 H₂O

So, we do the stoichiometric calculations. The important data we should know is the molar mass of oxalic acid which is equal to 90 g/mol.

(0.2283 mol/L NaOH * 0.3798 L * 1 mol H₂C₂O₄/ 2mol NaOH * 90 g/mol H₂C₂O₄) ÷ 0.7984 g *100%
= 488%

This is impossible. The purity can't be more than 100%. Looking at our calculations and the balance reaction, all steps were done correctly. So, I think there is some typographical error in the given. The mass of the sample should be 7.984 g. Then, the answer would be 48.87% purity.
