A sample of iron weighing 15.0 g was heated with potassium chlorate (KCIO3) in an evacuated container. The oxygen generated from the
decomposition of KCIO3 converted some of the Fe to Fe2Oe. If the combined mass of Fe and Fe203 was 17.9 g, calculate the mass of Fe203
formed and the mass of KCIO3 decomposed. Please show your work for credit and comment on another students such as asking a question or

Consider Molecule X, which is found in all living cells. This single-strand nucleic acid folds into a compact shape and forms a large complex with about 80
proteins. This complex is responsible for synthesizing new proteins in a living cell.
What is the name of X? Your answer should be one word, or a short two- or three-word phrase. Spelling counts.
Note: if there is more than one possible answer, separate each answer with a comma.

Called nanobes, they are roughly cylindrical and range from 20 to 150 nm long and about 10 nm in diameter. One approach to determining whether nanobes are living is to estimate how many atoms and molecules could make up a nanobe. If the number is too small, then there would not be enough DNA, protein, and other biological molecules to carry out life processes. To test this method, estimate an upper limit for the number of atoms that could be in a nanobe. (Use a small atom, such as hydrogen.) Also estimate how many protein molecules could fit inside a nanobe. Do your estimates rule out the possibility that a nanobe could be living? Explain why or why not.arrow_forwardState whether the following is a hypothesis, theory, or law of science.

The bottle was labelled information was given, but inside the bottle were some white crystals. The student took the bottle to a chemistry laboratory, where she analyzed the crystals with the help of the laboratory staff. C₁2H₁6O reacted with Br₂ in CCl4 adding one mole of Br, and forming C₁₂H₁OB2₂. When a sample of C₁₂H₂O was reacted with O3 followed by Zn/H₂O, two different samples, J and K, were obtained. Compound J had a molecular formula of C.HgO₂, and its NMR is shown below. Compound K had a molecular formula of C₂H₂O, and it could be oxidized to compound L, with a molecular formula of C₂H₂O₂. The IR spectrum of L showed a very wide, strong band centred around 3000 cm*¹. The NMR spectrum of L showed only two different absorptions: a doublet (6H) at 0.9 ppm and a septet (1H) at 3.6 ppm.

One method for determining the amount of corn in early Native American diets is the stable isotope ratio analysis (SIRA) technique. As corn photosynthesizes, it concentrates the isotope carbon-13, whereas most other plants concentrate carbon-12. Overreliance on corn consumption can then be correlated with certain diseases, because corn lacks the essential amino acid lysine. Archaeologists use a mass spectrometer to separate the 12C and 13C isotopes in samples of human remains. Suppose you use a velocity selector to obtain singly ionized (missing one electron) atoms of speed 8.50 km /s, and you want to bend them within a uniform magnetic field in a semicircle of diameter 25.0 cm for the 12C. The measured masses of these isotopes are 1.99 * 10-26 kg (12C) and 2.16 * 10-26 kg (13C). (a) What strength of magnetic field is required? (b) What is the diameter of the 13C semicircle?
