What are the answer choices?
Answer:
- <u>TRUE:</u> <em>Percent concentration is one of the most common and basic concentration measurement used by general public</em>
Explanation:
In chemistry there are many <em>concentration measurements</em> used to describe the mixtures. Some of them are, percent, molarity, molality, and molar fraction, among others.
Percent concentration is a popular one because it is commonly understood and used by the non specialist people, i.e. general public.
The percent concentration of a component is defined as: (amount of component in the mixture / amount of mixture) × 100.
The amounts may be measured in mass units (e.g grams) or volume units (e.g. mililiters).
For solutions, mass percent concentration is:
- % = (mass of solute / mass of solution) × 100.
And voluem percen contration is:
- % = (volume of solute / volume of solution) × 100
Since percentage is used in many profesional and personal activities, most persons use it.
For example, rubbing alcohol, that everyone buys in pharmacies, is 70%; vinager, used in the food, is acetic acid at 5% - 8%.
Answer:
Eat food
Explanation:
Food contain protein, carbohydrates, fats etc. These nutrients undergoes metabolic process and produced energy in cellular respiration.
There are two types of respiration:
1. Aerobic respiration
2. Anaerobic respiration
Aerobic respiration
It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen to yield large amount of energy. Water and carbon dioxide are also produced as a byproduct.
Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP
Anaerobic Respiration
It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the absence of oxygen and produce small amount of energy. Alcohol or lactic acid and carbon dioxide are also produced as byproducts.
Glucose→ lactic acid/alcohol + 2ATP + carbon dioxide
This process use respiratory electron transport chain as electron acceptor instead of oxygen. It is mostly occur in prokaryotes. Its main advantage is that it produce energy (ATP) very quickly as compared to aerobic respiration.
