Answer:

Jane has 2.77 * 10^20 molecules cholesterol in 1 dL of blood

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Given data

Molar mass of Cholesterol =  386.654 g/mol

Jane has a cholesterol of 178 mg/dL

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate mass of cholsterol in 1 dL

178 mg/dL means in 1 dL she has 178 mg cholesterol or 0.178 grams

<u>Step 3</u>: Calculate number of moles of cholesterol

Number of moles = mass of cholesterol / molar mass of cholesterol

Number of moles = 0.178 grams / 386.654 g/mol = 4.6 * 10^-4 moles

<u>Step 4: </u>Calculate number of molecules

Number of molecules = 4.6 * 10^-4 mol * 6.022 *10^23 / mol = 2.77 * 10^20 molecules

Jane has 2.77 * 10^20 molecules cholesterol in 1 dL of blood

Which substance can be described as cations bonded together by mobile electrons?a. S8(s)b. Ag(s)c. SiO2(s)d. KCl(s)e. Kr(l)
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Ag(s)

Explanation:

Metal atoms are held together by the metallic bond. The metallic bond consists of cations held together by a sea of mobile electrons.

Thus, the crystal of Ag(s) is composed of silver ions held together by a sea of mobile electrons. Electrostatic forces of attraction holds the crystal together.

Answer:

i believe this is a chemical or physical question? well your answer to that is no the element does not change because the gold is still gold it is still physical because you have just cut it into piece it is still gold

Instrumental methods need only a microscopic sample to return an accurate result. Why is this so?
uranmaximum [27]
Instrumental methods of analysis rely on machines.The visualization of single molecules, single biological cells, biological tissues and nanomaterials is very important and attractive approach in analytical science.
There are several different types of instrumental analysis. Some are suitable for detecting and identifying elements, while others are better suited to compounds. In general, instrumental methods of analysis are:
-Fast
-Accurate (they reliably identify elements and compounds)
-Sensitive (they can detect very small amounts of a substance in a small amount of sample)

For the first task, lighting a campfire can be used. Quantities of firestarter and kindling do not need to be precise. For the second task, the process of titration can be used. In a titration, the precise amount of a substance may be determined by adding a precise amount of a reactive species

The chemical equation, Cr + Fe(NO3)2 → Fe + Cr(NO3)3, is an example of which type of reaction?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Redox type

Explanation:

The reaction is:

2Cr +  3Fe(NO₃)₂ → 2Fe + 2Cr(NO₃)₃

2 moles of chromium can react to 3 moles of iron (II) nitrate in order to produce 2 moles of iron and 2 moles of chromium nitrate.

If we see oxidation state, we see that chromium changes from 0 to +3

Iron changed the oxidation state from +2 to 0

Remember that elements at ground state has 0, as oxidation state.

Iron is being reduced while chromium is oxidized. Then, the half reactions are:

Fe²⁺  +  2e⁻ ⇄  Fe    (Reduction)

Cr ⇄ Cr³⁺  +  3e⁻    (Oxidation)

When an element is being  reduced, while another is being oxidized, we are in prescence of a redox reaction.
