Answer:

20.91% of the hydrated calcium sulfate salt is water

Explanation:

<u>Step1</u> : Calculate the mass of H2O that evaporated

A hydrated salt has a mass of 1.803g. After heating at 170° C, this means water will evaporate, the mass of the salt is 1.426g

The difference is water that evaporated.

⇒Mass H2O of hydration =1.803 g - 1.426g g = 0.377 g H2O

<u>Step 2</u>: Calculate the % of water in the hydrated calcium sulfate salt

⇒ mass of H2O = 0.377g

⇒ mass of calcium sulfate salt = 1.803g

⇒ % water in the calcium sulfate salt = (0.377 / 1.803) x 100% = 20.91%

20.91% of the hydrated calcium sulfate salt is water

The number of p atoms in 1.0 g of ba3(po4)2 is:
marta [7]
First, we determine the number of moles of barium phosphate. This is done using:

Moles = mass / Mr
Moles = 1 / 602
Moles = 0.002

Now, we see from the formula of the compound that each mole of barium phosphate has 2 moles of phosphorus (P). Therefore, the moles of phosphorus are:
0.002 * 2 = 0.004

The number of particles in one mole of substance is 6.02 x 10²³. The number of phosphorus atoms will be:
0.004 * 6.02 x 10²³

2.41 x 10²¹ atoms of phosphorus are present

If a concentration of 10 fluorescent molecules per μm2of cell membrane is needed to visualize a cell under the microscope, how m
lara [203]

Answer : Total molecules that will be needed to visualize a single egg will be 78500 molecules of dye.

Explanation : As a single egg cell has an approximately diameter of 100 μm.

We can use this formula to calculate area of the cell membrane;

A = π (100)^{2} / 4;  

We can take π as 3.14 and we get;

A = 3.14 X (100)^{2} / 4  

Soving we get;

A =  7850 μm^{2}  

Here we have to calculate the amount of dye molecules which will be needed for 10 fluorescent molecules / μm^{2}  but;

here 1 μm^{2} = 7850 μm^{2} dye molecules.

Therefore, 10 fluorescent molecules will need;  

7850 X 10 = 78500 molecules of dye.

Therefore, the answer is 78500 molecules of dye.

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

Consider the following reactions and their respective equilibrium constants: NO(g)+12Br2(g)⇌NOBr(g)Kp=5.3 2NO(g)⇌N2(g)+O2(g)Kp=2
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Equilibrium constant of the given reaction is 1.3\times 10^{-29}

Explanation:

NO+\frac{1}{2}Br_{2}\rightleftharpoons NOBr....(K_{p})_{1}=5.3

2NO\rightleftharpoons N_{2}+O_{2}....(K_{p})_{2}=2.1\times 10^{30}

The given reaction can be written as summation of the following reaction-

2NO+Br_{2}\rightleftharpoons 2NOBr

N_{2}+O_{2}\rightleftharpoons 2NO

......................................................................................

N_{2}+O_{2}+Br_{2}\rightleftharpoons 2NOBr

Equilibrium constant of this reaction is given as-

\frac{[NOBr]^{2}}{[N_{2}][O_{2}][Br_{2}]}

=(\frac{[NOBr]}{[NO][Br_{2}]^{\frac{1}{2}}})^{2}(\frac{[NO]^{2}}{[N_{2}][O_{2}]})

=\frac{(K_{p})_{1}^{2}}{(K_{p})_{2}}

=\frac{(5.3)^{2}}{2.1\times 10^{30}}=1.3\times 10^{-29}
