Mitochondria are rod-shaped organelles are basically considered the power producers of the cell, it converts oxygen and nutrients into adenosine triphosphate or ATP, which is the chemical energy,also known as "currency" of the cell which powers the metabolic actions of the cell. This process is called aerobic respiration and it is the reason animals breathe oxygen. Cellular repiration happens in the mitochodrion. The 3 phases of cellular respiration are Krebs Cycle, Electron Transport and Glycolysis (Fermentation). Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm while the Krebs cycle and electron transport take place in the mitochondria.

A 13.58 g sample of a compound contains 8.67 g of iron, Fe, 1.60 g of phosphorus, P, and oxygen, O. Calculate the empirical

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

$Fe_3PO_4$

Explanation:

To do this, we find the moles of each element. We get around 0.155 moles of Fe, 0.051 moles of P, and 0.206 moles of O. We then divide each one by the smallest one (which is 0.051 moles of P). We then get 3 for Fe, 1 for P, and 4 for O. This correlates to the empirical formula of the compound.
