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.

What is the molarity of solution that is 5.50 percentage by mass oxalic acid and has a density of 1.024 g/ml
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

0.6257 M is the molarity of solution that is 5.50 percentage by mass oxalic acid.

Explanation:

Mass percentage of oxalic acid = 5.50%

This means that in 100 grams of solution there are 5.50 grams of oxalic acid.

Mass of solution , m = 100

Volume of the solution = V

Density of the solution = d = 1.024 g/mL

V=\frac{m}{d}=\frac{100 g}{1.024 g/mL}=97.66mL

V = 97.66 mL = 0.09766 L

(1 mL = 0.001 L)

Moles of oxalic acid = \frac{5.50 g}{90 g/mol}=0.06111 mol

Molarity=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution in L}}

The molarity of the solution :

=\frac{0.06111 mol}{0.09766  L}=0.6257M

0.6257 M is the molarity of solution that is 5.50 percentage by mass oxalic acid.

An organic synthesis to make the pain reliever acetaminophen is supposed to produce 280 kg of product but instead produces 70 kg
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer: 75%

Explanation:

The following information can be gotten from the question:

Waste = 70kg

Theoretical yield = 280kg

Therefore, the actual yield will be the difference between the theoretical yield and the waste which will be:

= 280kg - 70kg = 210kg

The percent yield will now be:

= Actual yield / Theoretical yield × 100

= 210/280 × 100

= 3/4 × 100

= 75%
