Answer: Water molecules make hydrogen bonds

Explanation: The hydrogen bonds in water exclude the nonpolar tails of phospholipids, forcing the molecules into a bilayer

Answer:

Water molecules make hydrogen bonds

Explanation:

This happens when the hydrogen bonds in water exclude the nonpolar tails of phospholipids, forcing the molecules into a bilayer.

Calculate the density of carbon dioxide at STP

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Density = mass/volume

= 44/22.4

= 1.96 gram/liter

The density of the Carbon Dioxide at S.T.P. (Standard Temperature and Volume) is 1.96 gram/liter.

1. An electric power plant uses energy from burning coal to generate steam at 450 °C. The plant is cooled by 20 °C water

kap26 [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

Efficiency of the electric power plant is $e=1-\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}$

Here Temperature of hot source $T_{1} = 450^{o}C=450+273=723 K$

and Temperature of sink $T_{1} = 20^{o}C=20+273=293 K$

Hence the efficiency is $e=1-\frac{293}{723}=0.5947=59.47%$

Now another formula for thermal efficiency Is

$e_{therm}=\frac{Q_{1}-Q_{2}}{Q_{1}}=\frac{W}{Q_{1}}$

Here QI is the of heat taken from source 100 MJ ; Q2 of heat transferred to the sink (river) to be found

W is the of work done and W = QI -Q2

Hence From $e_{therm}=\frac{Q_{1}-Q_{2}}{Q_{1}}=\frac{W}{Q_{1}}$

$W=e(Q_{1})=(0.5947)(100)=59.47MJ$

Hence the of heat transferred to the river Is $Q_{2} -W = (100 -59.47=40.53$

Where is the mass of an atom found

Virty [35]

Answer:

The mass of an atom is found in its nucleus.

Explanation:

An atom is made of three different particles: protons, neutrons and electrons.

Protons (positive charge) and neutrons (no charge) each have a mass of 1 AMU. They are both found in the nucleus (centre) of the atom.

Electrons (negative charge) are considered to have a mass of 0. Their mass is not actually 0, but very close so we do not count them. They are not in the nucleus, but found in shells surrounding the atom.

To calculate the mass of an atom, we add the number of protons and the number of electrons.

m = P + N
