Answer:
4.65 minutes.

Explanation:
Theoretical Assumptions (not realistic): 1) ALL of the heat energy is transferred to the water, and 2)the water is uniformly heated. 3) The water density is 1.0g/mL.
Because we are only heating it TO the “boiling point”, ONLY the energy to heat the water from 20 to 100’C using the heat capacity or specific heat of water is required. A “Watt” is 1 Joule/second. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g-’C. Water mass is 1000g. The energy required to heat it is therefore

Why is the fact that earth was molten liquid in its early stages the most important event in history
trasher [3.6K]

It was important because it tells why the denser material had sunken and the lighter is floating on the surface.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Eventually, after around 500 million years, our young planet's temperature warmed to the liquefying purpose of iron—about 1,538° Celsius (2,800° Fahrenheit). This crucial crossroads in Earth's history is known as the iron fiasco. The iron fiasco permitted more prominent, progressively quick development of Earth's liquid, rough material.

We also know that at one point all the material in the planet was molten because the denser material had sunk and the lighter was floating.

Hemoglobin (Hb) is the O2-carrying protein in our blood. Unlike myoglobin, it has four sites allowing it to bind up to four O2 m
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Yes, the energy is not simply the sum of the individual binding energies at each site, it is the product of energy at each binding site of hemoglobin.

Explanation:

Myoglobin and hemoglobin are two different cells. Myoglobin binds only one oxygen while the hemoglobin has the ability to binds four oxygen atoms at its four sides. Myoglobin present in muscle tissue only while hemoglobin is present in the whole body. Oxyhemoglobin is formed when oxygen binds with hemoglobin cell. This oxygen is take to all cells and energy is released due to the breakdown of glucose molecules with this oxygen.
