  • General Chemistry Question! Please help :(?

    When potassium chlorate is heated it decomposes into potassium chloride and oxygen gas:

    2KClO3 --> 2KCl + 3O2

    If 1.201 g of potassium chlorate decomposes and the oxygen gas is collected over water, what volume of oxygen gas is collected 755 mm Hg and 20.0 C? (Vapor pressure of water at 20.0 C = 17.535 mm Hg.

    Can someone please explain the steps in doing this? Thank you so much!

    a. Glycolysis

    b. Citric Acid Cycle

    c. Fermentation and glycolysis

    d. Oxidative Phosphorylation

    c. Oxidation generally involved the loss of H+ ions in addition to the loss of electrons.

    d. All of these describe redox reduction (I think it's this one?)

    3. One function of the Citric Acid cycle is:

    a. the production of ADP

    b. the reduction of NAD+ to NADH (I think it's this one?)

    c. The oxidation of FADH2 to FAD.

  • What is the symbol in this poem?

    Unwanted

    The poster with my picture on it

    Is hanging on the bulletin board in the Post Office.

    I stand by it hoping to be recognized

    Posing first full face and then profile

    But everybody passes by and I have to admit

    The photograph was taken some years ago.

    I was unwanted then and I'm unwanted now

    Ah guess ah'll go up echo mountain and crah.

    I wish someone would find my fingerprints somewhere

    Maybe on a corpse and say, You're it.

    Description: Male, or reasonably so

    White, but not lily-white and usually deep-red

    Thirty-fivish, and looks it lately

    Five-feet-nine and one-hundred-thirty pounds: no physique

    Black hair going gray, hairline receding fast

    What used to be curly, now fuzzy

    Brown eyes starey under beetling brow

    Mole on chin, probably will become a wen

    It is perfectly obvious that he was not popular at school

    No good at baseball, and wet his bed.

    His aliases tell his history: Dumbell, Good-for-nothing,

    Jewboy, Fieldinsky, Skinny, Fierce Face, Greaseball, Sissy.

    Warning: This man is not dangerous, answers to any name

    Responds to love, don't call him or he will come.

    Symbol? I think it's the photograph..Not sure though.
