The cellular component responsible for energy production and metabolic processes is mitochondria.

What is Mitochondria?

A double-membrane-bound organelle known as a mitochondrion is found in the majority of eukaryotic organisms. The majority of the cell's adenosine triphosphate, which is then used as a source of chemical energy throughout the cell, is produced by mitochondria using aerobic respiration.

Oxidative phosphorylation, which produces ATP using the energy released during the oxidation of the food we eat, is the traditional function of mitochondria. For the majority of biochemical and physiological processes, including growth, mobility, and equilibrium, ATP is used as the main energy source in turn.

When sodium peroxide is added to water, sodium hydroxide and oxygen gas is produced.

lukranit [14]

Answer:

The reaction combines the sodium with the hydrogen and oxygen in water to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas, and you get a lot of energy released as heat as well. This heat actually melts any remaining sodium that has not reacted yet, and ignites the hydrogen gas, so you get the bang and the flash.

How would you make a 2.00L of 0. 500M sodium chloride solution. (assume you have a fully equipped lab with water); sketch, calc

Gwar [14]

Answer:

Sodium chloride solution:

First you need to calculate the mass of salt needed (done in the explanation), which is 58.44g. Then it have to be weighted in an analytical balance in a weighting boat and then transferred into a 2L volumetric flask that is going to be filled until the mark with distilled water.

Sulfuric acid dilution:

First you need to calculate the volume needed (done in the explanation), it is 16.6 mL. Using a graduated pipette one measures this volume and transfer it into a 2L volumetric flask that is already half filled with distilled water, and then one fills it until its mark.

Explanation:

Sodium chloride solution:

Each liter of a 0.500M solution has half mol, so 2L of said solution has 1 mol of salt. Sodium chloride molar mass is 58.44g/mol, so in 2L of solution there is 58.44g of salt. That`s the mass that`s going to be weighted and transferred to a 2L volumetric flask.

Sulfuric acid dilution:

This is the equation for dilution of solutions:

$c_{1} v_{1} =c_{2} v_{2}$

Where "c1" stands for the initial concentration (stock solution concentration), "v1" for the initial volume (volume of stock solution used), "c2" for the desired concentration and "v2" for the desired volume.

When we are diluting from a stock solution we want to know how much do we have to pipette from the stock solution into our volumetric flask. We do so by isolating the "v1" term from the dilution equation:

$v_{1} =\frac{c_{2} v_{2} }{c_{1} }$

in this case that would be:

$v_{1} =\frac{0.100 x2.0 }{12.0 }=0.0166L=16.6mL$

Why does such a small decrease in pH mean such a large increase in acidity?

den301095 [7]

Answer:

pH is an index of how many protons, or hydrogen ions (H+) are dissolved and free in a solution. The pH scale goes from 0 to 14. A fluid with a pH of 7 is neutral. Below 7, it is acidic; above 7, it is alkaline.

The more below or above 7 a solution is, the more acidic or alkaline it is. The scale is not linear—a drop from pH 8.2 to 8.1 indicates a 30 percent increase in acidity, or concentration of hydrogen ions; a drop from 8.1 to 7.9 indicates a 150 percent increase in acidity. Bottom line: Small-sounding changes in ocean pH are actually quite large and definitely in the direction of becoming less alkaline, which is the same as becoming more acidic.

If you think about it, we use descriptive words like this all the time. A person who stands 5’5” tall and weighs 300 pounds isn’t thin. If he loses 100 pounds, he still won’t be thin, but he will be thinner than he was before he went on the diet. (And we are more likely to comment that he’s looking trimmer than to say he’s not as fat as he used to be.)
