Water flows over Niagara Falss at the average rate of 2,400,000 kg/s, and the average height of the falls is about 50 m. Knowing

that the graviatational potential energy of falling water per second = mass (kg) x height (m) x gravity (9.8 m/s2), what is the power of Niagara Falls? How many 15 W LED light bulbs could it power?

Answer:

1. 176 × 10^12 W ; 78400000000

Explanation:

Given the following :

Fall rate = 2,400,000kg/s

Average height of fall = 50m

Gravitational Potential of falling water = mgh = mass × acceleration due to gravity × height =

How many 15 W LED light bulbs could it power?

Recall : power = workdone / time

Workdone = gravitational potential energy

Mass of water = density * volume

Density of water = 1 * 10^3kg/m^3

Rate of fow = volume / time = 2400000

Hence,

Power = 1000 * 2,400,000 * 9.8 * 50

Power = 1176000000000

Power = 1. 176 × 10^12 W

How many 15 W LED light bulbs could it power?

1176000000000 / 15 = 78400000000

= 78400000000 15 W bulbs

In E. coli, the enzyme hexokinase catalyzes the reaction: Glucose + ATP → glucose 6-phosphate + ADP The equilibrium constant, Ke
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Explanation:

Glucose + ATP → glucose 6-phosphate + ADP The equilibrium constant, Keq, is 7.8 x 102.

In the living E. coli cells,

[ATP] = 7.9 mM;

[ADP] = 1.04 mM,

[glucose] = 2 mM,

[glucose 6-phosphate] = 1 mM.

Determine if the reaction is at equilibrium. If the reaction is not at equilibrium, determine which side the reaction favors in living E. coli cells.

The reaction is given as

Glucose + ATP → glucose 6-phosphate + ADP

Now reaction quotient for given equation above is

q=\frac{[\text {glucose 6-phosphate}][ADP]}{[Glucose][ATP]}

q=\frac{(1mm)\times (1.04 mm)}{(7.9mm)\times (2mm)} \\\\=6.582\times 10^{-2}

so,

q ⇒ following this criteria the reaction will go towards the right direction ( that is forward reaction is favorable  until q = Keq

What are some signs of cyanide poisoning visible on a corpse?
lina2011 [118]
Hello!
I saw this question and instantly knew I could help. I recently took a course on toxic gasses and poisons. Here's what I know.

It can be swallowed, inhaled, or absorbed through skin. It is generally released from its host compound by acids, such as the hydrochloric acid found in the stomach. The poison in the seeds is released only if the seeds are chewed.

Effects and symptoms:
Cyanide prevents the red blood cells from absorbing oxygen. It's called chemical asphyxia.
Smelling of a toxic dose of the gas can cause immediate unconsciousness, convulsions and death within one to fifteen minutes.
If swallowed a fatal dose can take up to twenty minutes or longer, esp. if swallowed on a full stomach.
If a near-lethal dose is absorbed through the skin, inhaled or swallowed the symptoms will include gasping for breath, dizziness, flushing, headache, nausea, vomiting, rapid pulse, and a drop in blood pressure causing fainting.
<span>With a lethal dose, convulsions with in four hours, except in the case of sodium nitroprusside, when death can be delayed as long as 12 hours after ingestion. </span>The victims blood may appear purple or cherry red, as in carbon monoxide poisoning, and the corpse may have pinker than normal skin.
<span>the famous bitter almond odor can be a clue and maybe noticeable at autopsy, but not everyone is capable of smelling it.

Hope this helped! :)</span>

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer : The equilibrium concentration of NO is, 0.0092 M.

Solution :

First we have to calculate the concentration of NO.

\text{Concentration of NO}=\frac{\text{Moles of }NO}{\text{Volume of solution}}=\frac{0.3152mol}{2.0L}=0.1576M

The given equilibrium reaction is,

                           N_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO(g)

Initially conc.      0        0           0.1576

At eqm.               (x)       (x)        (0.1576-2x)

The expression of K_c will be,

K_c=\frac{[NO]^2}{[N_2][O_2]}

0.0153=\frac{(0.1576-2x)^2}{(x)\times (x)}

By solving the term, we get:

x=0.0742,0.0839

Neglecting the 0.0839 value of x because it can not be more than initial value.

Thus, the value of 'x' will be, 0.0742 M

Now we have to calculate the equilibrium concentration of NO.

Equilibrium concentration of NO = (0.1576-2x) = [0.1576-2(0.0742)] = 0.0092 M

Therefore, the equilibrium concentration of NO is, 0.0092 M.
