Synthesize Information In a multistep process, cells can combine the reactants glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2) to form the pro

ducts carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). Some cells can also perform the reverse of this process. Must one, both, or neither of the processes release energy? Explain.

Answer:

Explanation:

In one of the process, energy is built up from scratch, in the other one, energy is liberated for use by an organism or body.

The first process deals with a metabolic reaction in which energy is liberated:

         C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂  → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy

In the above process, energy is liberated when glucose combines with oxygen. The waste products are carbon dioxide and water. This process liberates heat energy which can be used to do work.

   In the reverse process:

             6CO₂ + 6H₂O   →  C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

    This process stores energy in carbon chains as chemical energy. It is this energy that is released in the first process.

Therefore, we can see that the first process liberates energy and the reverse process stores energy.

How do you think temperature will affect the rate of a chemical reaction?
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

I could create a slower reaction because the particles might be moving slower due to the cold. if it was warm there will be a faster reaction. similar to the elements movements in solids and liquids.

As of right now, which of the following forms of nuclear power is the most feasible for human use?
nikitadnepr [17]

As of now, the nuclear fission is the most feasible energy source for human use. All the nuclear power plants are based on the controlled nuclear fission reaction, where the unstable nucleus is bombarded with high speed neutrons, thus, splitting the nucleus into stable ones and releasing huge amount of energy. The nuclear fusion requires very high temperature, the temperature equal's to that of the sun. Hence, it is not feasible right now. As the technology advances, we will see advancement in other form of energies.
