A sample of drinking water was tested for Pb2 and was found to have a Pb2 concentration of 17.50 ppb. A 9.00 mL sample of the drinking water was spiked with 1.00 mL of a 2.29 ppb Pb2 standard. Analysis of the spiked sample gave a concentration of 15.93 ppb Pb2 . Find the percent recovery of the spike.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]X=75\%[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Concentration [tex]C_1=17.50ppb[/tex]

Volume [tex]v=9mL[/tex]

Spike Volume [tex]V_s=1.00mL[/tex]

spike Conc [tex]C_2=2.29 ppb[/tex]

Analysis Conc [tex]C_s=15.93 ppb[/tex]

Generally the equation for  percent recovery is mathematically given by

 [tex]X=\frac{C_s'-C_1'}{C_2'}[/tex]

Where

Concentration of spiked sample C_s'

 [tex]C_s'=C_s*(v+v_s)[/tex]

 [tex]C_s'=15.92*(9+1)[/tex]

 [tex]C_2=159.2[/tex]

Concentration of unspiked sample C_1'

 [tex]C_1'=17.50*9mL[/tex]

 [tex]C_1'=157.5[/tex]

Concentration of spike sample C_2'

 [tex]C_2=2.29*1[/tex]

 [tex]C_2=2.29[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]X=\frac{159.2-157.5}{2.29}[/tex]

 [tex]X=75\%[/tex]

For a particular chemical reaction the rate​ (g/hr) at which one of the reactants changes is proportional to the amount of that reactant present. If y represents the amount of that reactant at time​ t, StartFraction dy Over dt EndFraction equals minus0.7y. If there were 70 grams of the reactant when the process started ​(tequals ​0), how many grams will remain after 4 ​hours?

Answers

Answer:

Amount of reactant after four hours = 4,26 grams

Explanation:

Suppose y denotes the amount of reactant at the time (t)

The given function:

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dt} = -0.7 y[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{y} = -0.7 dt[/tex]

Taking integral on both sides

㏑(y) = -0.7t + c¹

[tex]e^{In(y)}= e^{-0.7t + c^1}[/tex]

[tex]y(t) = Ce ^{-0.7t}[/tex]

At t = 0 ; y (t) = 70

[tex]70 = Ce^{-0.7(0)}[/tex]

C = 70

As such; [tex]\mathtt{y(t) = 70 e^{-0.7*t}}[/tex]

After four hours, the amount of the reactant is:

[tex]\mathtt{y(t) = 70 e^{-0.7*4}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{y(t) = 70 e^{-2.8}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{y(t) = 4.26}[/tex]

Amount of reactant after four hours = 4,26 grams

He predicted an element with an atomic weight between 65 (zinc) and 75 (arsenic) with a valence similar to aluminum that he named ekaboron. This element was discovered in 1879. What is this element:?

Answers

Answer:

Scandium

Explanation:

Mendeleev played an important role in the development of the modern periodic table. His periodic table was filled with gaps. He said that these gaps were elements that were yet to be discovered. He rightly predicted many elements which have now been discovered and fitted in their proper places in the periodic table.

He used the prefix ''eka'' to refer to elements whose properties were alike but were yet to be discovered at that time.

The compound named ekaboron which he predicted to have an atomic weight between 65 (zinc) and 75 (arsenic) with a valence similar to aluminum was later discovered in 1879 and properly named scandium.

Calculate the mass of water produced when 9.57 g of butane reacts with excess oxygen.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Answers

Answer:

14.9 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

C₄H₁₀ + 6.5 O₂ ⇒ 4 CO₂ + 5 H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 9.57 g of C₄H₁₀

The molar mass of C₄H₁₀ is 58.12 g/mol.

9.57 g × 1 mol/58.12 g = 0.165 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of H₂O produced from 0.165 moles of C₄H₁₀

0.165 mol C₄H₁₀ × 5 mol H₂O/1 mol C₄H₁₀ = 0.825 mol H₂O

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.825 mol of H₂O

The molar mass of H₂O is 18.02 g/mol.

0.825 mol × 18.02 g/mol = 14.9 g

Classify each amino acid by the chemical properties of its side chain (R group) at pH 7 . Select the amino acid that fits best in each category. Each amino acid will be selected only once. Which amino acid has a positively charged R group

Answers

Answer: The amino acid that has a positively charged R group are LYSINE and ARGININE.

Explanation:

AMINO ACIDS are the basic structural units of proteins. Each amino acid contains an amino group ( -NH2) and a carboxyl group (-COOH) in its molecule. The carbon atom of amino acid to which the functional groups are attached is know as the alpha-carbon. In neutral solution, amino acids are mainly in the form of dipolar ions. Amino acids can be prepared through hydrolysis of protein by boiling with dilute hydrochloric acid.

Amino acids can be classified according to the chemical properties of its side chain (R group) at pH 7, these include:

--> Amino acids with POSITIVELY CHARGED R group

--> Amino acids with negatively charged R group

--> Amino acids with neutral polar R group

--> Amino acids with nonpolar aliphatic R group.

Amino acids with POSITIVELY CHARGED R group are those amino acids that has side chains which contain nitrogen and resemble ammonia, which is a base. Their pKa's are high enough that they tend to bind protons, gaining a positive charge in the process. Example include LYSINE and ARGININE.

____________ can increase the presence of 5HT in the terminal button or synaptic cleft.

Answers

Answer:

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)

Explanation:

A synaptic cleft is a space that separates two neurons thereby forming a junction between two or more neurons. The synaptic cleft helps in the transfer of nerve impulse from one neuron to the other.

5-HT is found in the enteric nervous system located in the gastrointestinal tract and it helps in modulating cognition, memory, sleep, and numerous physiological processes.

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), such as fluoxetine and citalopram are used to increase the level of 5-HT in the synaptic cleft by inhibiting its reuptake into the presynaptic terminal.

B. The mass increases because some light energy changes into
mass.
O C. The mass stays the same because the total number of atoms
does not change
O D. The mass decreases because plants destroy some of the atoms
during photosynthesis.

Answers

Answer:

C. The mass stays the same because the total number of atoms does not change

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of matter/mass, matter cannot be created nor destroyed, hence, the amount of matter in the reactants must be the same amount in the products.

Using the photosynthetic reaction as a case study, carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) are the compounds that go into the reaction (reactants) while glucose and oxygen (O2) are the products of the reaction.

Using the law of conservation of matter to explain, the total mass of both the reactants and products stays the same because the total number of atoms does not change i.e. if 6 atoms of Carbon starts the reaction, 6 atoms of carbon will end it.

What is the quantity of
heat required to raise the
temperature of 500 g of
iron by 2°C?
The specific heat capacity
of iron is 500 J/(kg °C)

Answers

Answer:

The quantity of  heat required to raise the  temperature of 500 g of  iron by 2°C is 500 J.

Explanation:

Calorimetry is responsible for measuring the amount of heat generated or lost in certain physical or chemical processes.

The sensible heat of a body is the amount of heat received or transferred by a body when undergoing a temperature variation (Δt) without there being a change in physical state (solid, liquid or gaseous).

Its mathematical expression is the fundamental equation of calorimetry. This is:

Q = c * m * ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.

In this  case:

Q= ?c= 500 [tex]\frac{J}{kg*C}[/tex]m= 500 g= 0.500 kgΔT= 2 C

Replacing:

Q= 500 [tex]\frac{J}{kg*C}[/tex] *0.500 kg*2 C

Solving:

Q= 500 J

The quantity of  heat required to raise the  temperature of 500 g of  iron by 2°C is 500 J.

e. Ni2+(aq) + SO4^2- (aq) → NISO4 (s).

Answers

Answer:

No reaction occurs.

Explanation:

The molecular reaction is as follows;

MgSO4(aq) + Ni(NO3)2(aq) ----> Mg(NO3)2(aq) + NiSO4(aq)

We can see from the reaction above that the both products of the reaction are soluble. Recall that a double replacement reaction often yields one insoluble product which separates as a precipitate.

This reaction does not occur since the two products that ought to be obtained are soluble in water.

A 100.0-g sample of water at 27.0oC is poured into a 71.0-g sample of water at 89.0oC. What will be the final temperature of the water? (Specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/goC.)

Answers

Answer: The final temperature will be [tex]52.74^oC[/tex]

Explanation:

Calculating the heat released or absorbed for the process:

[tex]q=m\times C\times (T_2-T_1)[/tex]

In a system, the total amount of heat released is equal to the total amount of heat absorbed.

[tex]q_1=-q_2[/tex]

OR

[tex]m_1\times C\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times C\times (T_f-T_2)[/tex] ......(1)

where,

C = heat capacity of water = [tex]4.184J/g^oC[/tex]

[tex]m_1[/tex] = mass of water of sample 1 = 100.0 g

[tex]m_2[/tex] = mass of water of sample 2 = 71.0 g

[tex]T_f[/tex] = final temperature of the system = ?

[tex]T_1[/tex] = initial temperature of water of sample 1 = [tex]27^oC[/tex]

[tex]T_2[/tex] = initial temperature of the water of sample 2 = [tex]89.0^oC[/tex]

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

[tex]100.0\times 4.184\times (T_f-27)=-71.0\times 4.184\times (T_f-89)\\\\171T_f=9019\\\\T_f=\frac{9019}{171}=52.74^oC[/tex]

Hence, the final temperature will be [tex]52.74^oC[/tex]

Explanation:

2,3,3-trimethylpentane has the molecular formula C8H18.

The general formula for the combustion of an alkane is;

CnH2n+2 + 3n+1/2O2 ----->nCO2 + (n+1)H2O

In writing a balanced chemical reaction equation, the number of atoms of each element on the left hand side of the reaction equation must be the same as the number of atoms of the same element on the right hand side of the reaction equation.

For C8H18, the balanced chemical reaction equation for combustion is;
