Answer:

The answer to be filled in the respective blanks in question is

3 and 1

Explanation:

So, we know that the formation of cabon-dioxide mole and that of Adenosin-Tri-Phosphate (ATP) moles will be in the ratio of 3:1 i.e., three carbon-di-oxide moles and 1 ATP mole.

Therefore, we can say that one pyruvate mole when passed through citric acid cycle and pyruvate dehydrogenase yields carbon-di-oxide and ATP moles in the ratio 3:1

2) Of the following, which has the shortest de Broglie wavelength? A) an airplane moving at a velocity of 300 mph B) a helium nu

8090 [49]

Answer:

B) a helium nucleus moving at a velocity of 1000 mph

Explanation:

According to the De Broglie relation

λ= h/mv

h= planks constant

m= mass of the body

v= velocity of the body.

As we can see from De Broglie's relation, the wavelength of matter waves depends on its mass and velocity. Hence, a very small mass moving at a very high velocity will have the greatest De Broglie wavelength.

Of all the options given, helium is the smallest matter. A velocity of 1000mph is quite high hence it will have the greatest De Broglie wavelength.

A 0.72-mol sample of PCl5 is put into a 1.00-L vessel and heated. At equilibrium, the vessel contains 0.40 mol of PCl3(g) and 0.

Sonja [21]

Answer:

Equilibrium constant for $PCl_5$ is 0.5

Equilibrium constant for decomposition of $NO_2$ is $1.79 \times 10^{-14}$

Explanation:

$PCl_5$ dissociates as follows:

$PCl_5 \rightleftharpoons PCl_3+Cl_2$

initial 0.72 mol 0 0

at eq. 0.72 - 0.40 0.40 0.40

Expression for the equilibrium constant is as follows:

$k=\frac{[PCl_3][Cl_2]}{[PCl_5]}$

Substitute the values in the above formula to calculate equilibrium constant as follows:

$k=\frac{[0.40/1][0.40/1]}{0.32/1} \\=\frac{0.40 \times 0.40}{0.32} \\=0.5$

Therefore, equilibrium constant for $PCl_5$ is 0.5

Now calculate the equilibrium constant for decomposition of $NO_2$

It is given that $3.3 \times 10^{-3} \%$ is decomposed.

$NO_2$ decomposes as follows:

$2NO_2 \rightleftharpoons 2NO + O_2$

initial 1.0 M 0 0

at eq. concentration of $NO_2$ is:

$[NO_2]_{eq}=1-(0.000066) = 0.999934\ M$

$[NO]_{eq}=6.6 \times 10^{-5}\ M$

$[O_2]_{eq}=3.3\times 10^{-5} = 3.3\times 10^{-5}\ M$

Expression for equilibrium constant is as follows:

$K=\frac{[NO]^2[O_2]}{[NO_2]^2}$

Substitute the values in the above expression

$K=\frac{[6.6\times 10^{-5}]^2[3.3 \times 10^{-5}]}{[0.999934]^2} \\=1.79\times 10^{-14}$

Equilibrium constant for decomposition of $NO_2$ is $1.79 \times 10^{-14}$

What is the melting point of a solution in which 3.5 grams of sodium chloride is added to 230 mL of water?

kirza4 [7]

We are going to use this equation:

ΔT = - i m Kf

when m is the molality of a solution

i = 2

and ΔT is the change in melting point = T2- 0 °C

and Kf is cryoscopic constant = 1.86C/m

now we need to calculate the molality so we have to get the moles of NaCl first:

moles of NaCl = mass / molar mass

= 3.5 g / 58.44

= 0.0599 moles

when the density of water = 1 g / mL and the volume =230 L

∴ the mass of water = 1 g * 230 mL = 230 g = 0.23Kg

now we can get the molality = moles NaCl / Kg water

=0.0599moles/0.23Kg

= 0.26 m

∴T2-0 = - 2 * 0.26 *1.86

∴T2 = -0.967 °C

1. Suppose 0.7542 g of magnesium reacts with excess oxygen to form magnesium oxide as the only product, what would be the theore

Alina [70]

Answer :

(1) The theoretical yield of product, $MgO$ is, 1.257 grams.

(2) The percent yield of $MgO$ is, 64.13 %

(3) If the percent yield is calculated to be over 100% then there might be some impurity present in the desired product.

Solution : Given,

Mass of Mg = 0.7542 g

Molar mass of Mg = 24 g/mole

Molar mass of MgO = 40 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of Mg.

$\text{ Moles of }Mg=\frac{\text{ Mass of }Mg}{\text{ Molar mass of }Mg}=\frac{0.7542g}{24g/mole}=0.03142moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $MgO$

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$2Mg(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2MgO(s)$

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 mole of $Mg$ react to give 2 mole of $MgO$

So, 0.03142 moles of $Mg$ react to give 0.03142 moles of $MgO$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $MgO$

$\text{ Mass of }MgO=\text{ Moles of }MgO\times \text{ Molar mass of }MgO$

$\text{ Mass of }MgO=(0.03142moles)\times (40g/mole)=1.257g$

Theoretical yield of $MgO$ = 1.257 g

Experimental yield of $MgO$ = 0.8922 g

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of $MgO$

$\% \text{ yield of }MgO=\frac{\text{ Experimental yield of }MgO}{\text{ Theretical yield of }MgO}\times 100$

$\% \text{ yield of }MgO=\frac{0.8922g}{1.257g}\times 100=70.97\%$

Therefore, the percent yield of $MgO$ is, 70.97 %

If the percent yield is calculated to be over 100% then the product would be greater than 1.257 g which indicates that there might be some impurity present in the desired product.
