Lipids with high polyunsaturatd fatty acid content are ____________ at room temperature.

1 answer:

7 0

The answer to this question would be liquid.

Lipids with high polyunsaturated fatty acid mostly found as a liquid, but the saturated one would be solid at room temperature. A molecule with higher molecular weight will have the higher boiling point and it more likely to be solid at room temperature.
Unsaturated fat is more healthy than saturated fat and it is recommended to reduce saturated fat consumption as it was linked to many diseases.

How many ml of a 2.0 m nabr solution are needed to make 200.0 ml of 0.50 m nabr?

gogolik [260]

To solve this we use the equation,

M1V1 = M2V2

where M1 is the concentration of the stock solution, V1 is the volume of the stock solution, M2 is the concentration of the new solution and V2 is its volume.

2.0 M x V1 = 0.50 M x 200 mL

V1 = 50 mL needed

An ideal gas contained in a piston-cylinder assembly is compressed isothermally in an internally reversible process.

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

a) $\Delta S$

b) entropy of the sistem equal to a), entropy of the universe grater than a).

Explanation:

a) The change of entropy for a reversible process:

$\delta S=\frac{\delta Q}{T}$

$\Delta S=\frac{Q}{T}$

The energy balance:

$\delta U=[tex]\delta Q- \delta W$

If the process is isothermical the U doesn't change:

$0=[tex]\delta Q- \delta W$

$\delta Q= \delta W$

$Q= W$

The work:

$W=\int_{V1}^{V2}P*dV$

If it is an ideal gas:

$P=\frac{n*R*T}{V}$

$W=\int_{V1}^{V2}\frac{n*R*T}{V}*dV$

Solving:

$W=n*R*T*ln(V2/V1)$

Replacing:

$\Delta S=\frac{n*R*T*ln(V2/V1)}{T}$

$\Delta S=n*R*ln(V2/V1)}$

Given that it's a compression: V2<V1 and ln(V2/V1)<0. So:

$\Delta S$

b) The entropy change of the sistem will be equal to the calculated in a), but the change of entropy of the universe will be 0 in a) (reversible process) and in b) has to be positive given that it is an irreversible process.

A 25.0 L tank of nitrogen gas is at 25 oC and 2.05 atm . If the temperature stays at 25 oC and the volume is decreased to 14.5 L

NeTakaya

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf P_2 \approx 3.53 \ atm}}$

Explanation:

In this problem, the temperature stays constant. The volume and pressure change, so we use Boyle's Law. This states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to the volume. The formula is:

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

Now we can substitute any known values into the formula.

Originally, the gas has a volume of 25.0 liters and a pressure of 2.05 atmospheres.

$25.0 \ L * 2.05 \ atm = P_2V_2$

The volume is decreased to 14.5 liters, but the pressure is unknown.

$25.0 \ L * 2.05 \ atm = P_2 * 14.5 \ L$

Since we are solving for the new pressure, or P₂, we must isolate the variable. It is being multiplied by 14.5 liters and the inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 14.5 L .

$\frac {25.0 \ L * 2.05 \ atm }{14.5 \ L}=\frac{P_2 *14.5 \ L}{14.5 \ L}$
