NaBH 4 reacts with water and alcohols, with the evolution of hydrogen gas and the formation of the corresponding borate, the reaction being especially fast at low pH. Nevertheless, alcohol, often methanol or ethanol, is generally the solvent of choice for sodium borohydride reductions of ketones and aldehydes.

Methanol poses a greater risk because it is metabolized into a very toxic substance i.e. formic acid and also highly poisonous.

What is Methanol?

Methanol is a promising energy carrier because, as a liquid, it is easier to store than hydrogen and natural gas. Its energy density is, however, lower than methane, per kg.

The decomposition of NI3 to form N2 and I2 releases −290.0 kJ of energy. The reaction can be represented as 2NI3(s)→N2(g)+3I2(g)
EastWind [94]

Answer:

-7.34 kilo Joules is the change in enthaply when 20.0 grams of nitrogen triiodide decomposes.

Explanation:

Mass of nitrogen triiodide = 20.0 g

Moles of nitrogen triiodide = \frac{20.0 g}{395 g/mol}=0.05063 mol

2NI_3(s)\rightarrow N_2(g)+3I_2(g), \Delta H_{rxn}=-290.0 kJ

According to reaction, 2 moles of nitrogen triiodide gives 290.0 kilo Joules of heat on decomposition ,then 0.05063 moles of nitrogen triiodide will give :

\frac{-290.0 kJ}{2}\times 0.05063=-7.34 kJ

-7.34 kilo Joules is the change in enthaply when 20.0 grams of nitrogen triiodide decomposes.

If gatorade g series, endurance formula, contains 14 grams of carbohydrate per 8 ounces, how many ounces should a basketball pla
Mashcka [7]

Based on recommended amount of carbohydrate, a basketball player should consume about 17 - 34 ounces of gatorade g series during the hour-long game.

<h3>How many ounces of endurance formula gatorade g series, endurance formula should a basketball player consume during an hour-long game if it contains 14 grams of carbohydrate per 8 ounces?</h3>

Carbohydrates are food substances metabolized easily by the body to produce energy.

Given that the recommended amount of carbohydrate to consume to maintain performance is 30–60 g/h.

Also 14 grams of carbohydrate found in 8 ounces of the drink.

30 g of carbohydrate will be present in 30 × 8/14 = 17.1 ounces of gatorade g series

60 g of carbohydrate will be present in 60 × 8/14 =34.3 ounces of gatorade g series.

Therefore, a basketball player should consume about 17 - 34 ounces of gatorade g series during the hour-long game.
