Answer: 3.96L

Explanation:

PV = nRT

The way I like to do it, it's I get rid of whatever I do not need.

We have to do an equation for sure to make both sides equal and find our desired result.

The pressure is constant, so it would be constant in both sides, therefore, there is no point in using it.

The R is a constant used in both sides so there is no point on using it either.

We don't need to work with moles in this case, so let's forget about the moles.

Therefore we are left with only V (volume ) and T(Temperature)

Which would logically make this:

V1/T1 = V2/T2

OR

T1/V1 = T2/V2

Both of these would work, we always use whatever makes our calculations easier without complicating our lives with the algebra.

That should remind you of Charles' Law

Transform degrees into kelvins

20 + 273.15 = 293.15K

-15 + 273.15 = 258.15K

So, 4.5L/293.15K = V2/258.15K

V2 = (4.5L/293.15K) x 258.15K

V2 = 3.96L

Cyclohexane has a freezing point of 6.50 ∘C and a Kf of 20.0 ∘C/m. What is the freezing point of a solution made by dissolving 0
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

The freezing point will be 2.9^{0}C

Explanation:

The depression in freezing point is a colligative property.

It is related to molality as:

Depressioninfreezing point=K_{f}Xmolality

Where

Kf= 20\frac{^{0}C}{m}

the molality is calculated as:

molality=\frac{moles_{solute}}{mass_{solvent}}

moles=\frac{mass}{molarmass}=\frac{0.694}{154}=0.0045mol

massofcyclohexane=25g=0.025Kg

molarity=\frac{0.0045}{0.025}=0.18m

Depression in freezing point = 20X0.18=3.6^{0}C

The new freezing point = 6.5^{0}C-3.6^{0}C=2.9^{0}C

Pure platinum is too soft to be used in jewelry because it scratches easily. To increase the hardness so that it can be used in
Zina [86]

Answer:

percentage mass of platinum in the alloy ≈ 90.60 %

Explanation:

The alloy is 8.528 g sample of an alloy containing platinum and cobalt . The alloy react with excess nitric acid to form cobalt(ii) nitrate . Platinum is resistant to acid so it will definitely not react with the acid only the cobalt metal in the alloy will react with the acid.

The chemical reaction can be represented as follows:

Co (s) + HNO₃ (aq) → Co(NO₃)₂ (aq) +  NO₂ (l) + H₂O (l)

The balanced equation

Co (s) + 4HNO₃ (aq) → Co(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2NO₂ (l) + 2H₂O (l)

Cobalt is the limiting reactant

atomic mass of cobalt = 58.933 g/mol

Molar mass of Co(NO₃)₂ = 58.933 + 14 × 2 + 16 × 6 = 58.933 + 28 + 96 = 182.933  g

58.933 g of cobalt produce 182.933  g of  Co(NO₃)₂

? gram of cobalt will produce 2.49 g of Co(NO₃)₂

cross multiply

grams of cobalt that will react = (58.933 × 2.49)/182.933

grams of cobalt that will react = 146.74317000/182.933

grams of cobalt that will react= 0.8021689362 g

grams of cobalt that will react = 0.802 g

mass of platinum in the alloy  = 8.528 g - 0.802 g = 7.726 g

percentage  mass of platinum in the alloy = 7.726/8.528 × 100 = 772.600/8.528 = 90 .595 %

percentage mass of platinum in the alloy ≈ 90.60 %

Paige heated 3.00 g mercury (II) oxide (HgO, 216.59 g/mol) to form mercury (Hg, 200.59 g/mol) and oxygen (O2, 32.00 g/mol). She
stepan [7]

the balanced chemical equation for decomposition of HgO is as follows

2HgO --> 2Hg + O₂

stoichiometry of HgO to O₂ is 2:1

number of HgO moles heated are - 3.00 g / 216.59 g/mol = 0.0139 mol

according to stoichiometry of reaction -

number of O₂ moles formed = 0.0139 mol/ 2 = 0.00695 mol

mass of O₂ to be formed - 0.00695 mol x 32.00 g/mol = 0.2224 g

but the actual yield = 0.195 g

percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield x 100 %

percent yield = 0.195 g / 0.2224 g x 100 % = 87.7 %

answer is 87.7 %

In E. coli, the enzyme hexokinase catalyzes the reaction: Glucose + ATP → glucose 6-phosphate + ADP The equilibrium constant, Ke
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Explanation:

Glucose + ATP → glucose 6-phosphate + ADP The equilibrium constant, Keq, is 7.8 x 102.

In the living E. coli cells,

[ATP] = 7.9 mM;

[ADP] = 1.04 mM,

[glucose] = 2 mM,

[glucose 6-phosphate] = 1 mM.

Determine if the reaction is at equilibrium. If the reaction is not at equilibrium, determine which side the reaction favors in living E. coli cells.

The reaction is given as

Glucose + ATP → glucose 6-phosphate + ADP

Now reaction quotient for given equation above is

q=\frac{[\text {glucose 6-phosphate}][ADP]}{[Glucose][ATP]}

q=\frac{(1mm)\times (1.04 mm)}{(7.9mm)\times (2mm)} \\\\=6.582\times 10^{-2}

so,

q ⇒ following this criteria the reaction will go towards the right direction ( that is forward reaction is favorable  until q = Keq
