Answer is (2) - hydrogen carbonate

<em>Explanation:</em>

NaHCO₃ is an ionic compound which is made from Na⁺ and HCO₃⁻ ions. The decomposition is

NaHCO₃ → Na⁺ + HCO₃⁻

Among the resulted ions, Na⁺ is a monatomic ion while HCO₃⁻ is a polyatomic ion.

<em>Polyatomic ions mean ions which are made of two or more different atoms.</em>

HCO₃⁻ is made from 3 atoms as H, C and O. The name of HCO₃⁻ ion is bicarbonate or hydrogen carbonate.

serg [7]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

Hydrogen chloride and oxygen react to form water and chlorine, like this:

$4HCI(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2(g)+2CI_2(g)$

Use this chemical equation to answer the questions in the table below.

Suppose 155. mmol of HCl and 38.8 mmol of O₂ are added to an empty flask. How much HCl will be in the flask at equilibrium?

(1) None.

(2) Some, but less than 155. mmol,

(3) 155. mmol,

(4) More than 155. mmol,

Answer : The correct option is, (1) None

Explanation :

The given balanced chemical reaction is:

$4HCI(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2(g)+2CI_2(g)$

From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that

As, 4 mmole of HCl react with 1 mmoles of $O_2$

So, 155. mmole of HCl react with $\frac{155.}{4}\times 1=38.75$ mmoles of $O_2$

That means, $O_2$ is excess reagent and $HCl$ is a limiting reagent. All the moles of HCl will consume.

Hence, the correct option is, None.

If the dimensions of a cube-shaped cell with a volume of 1 pm were to

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Explanation:

Assuming the units are all supposed to be the same

A cube shaped cell with a 1 um³ volume would have a dimensions of 1 x 1 x 1 (because volume = length x width x height and 1 x 1 x 1 =1)

If we double the dimensions, we have a cube with the dimensions 2 x 2 x 2.

The surface area of each face of the cube is the length x width, so 2 x 2. This means the surface area of each face of the cube is 4 um².

There are 6 faces of a cube, so the total surface area is 6 x 4 um² = 24 um².
