A rock falls from a ledge to the ground. What energy conversion occurs

Yeast converts glucose to ethanol and carbon dioxide during a process known as anaerobic fermentation. The chemical reaction is

Korolek [52]

Answer:

102g

Explanation:

To find the mass of ethanol formed, we first need to ensure that we have a balanced chemical equation. A balanced chemical equation is where the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation (reactants and products). This is useful as only when a chemical equation is balanced, we can understand the relationship of the amount (moles) of reactant and products, or to put it simply, their relationship with one another.

In this case, the given equation is already balanced.

$\tex{C_6H_{12}O_6} \longrightarrow 2 \ C_2H_6O + 2 \ CO_2$

From the equation, the amount of ethanol produced is twice the amount of yeast present, or the same amount of carbon dioxide produced. Do note that amount refers to the number of moles here.

Mole= Mass ÷Mr

Mass= Mole ×Mr

Method 1: using the mass of glucose

Mr of glucose

= 6(12) +12(1) +6(16)

= 180

Moles of glucose reacted

= 200 ÷180

= $\frac{10}{9}$ mol

Amount of ethanol formed: moles of glucose reacted= 2: 1

Amount of ethanol

= $2(\frac{10}{9} )$

= $\frac{20}{9}$ mol

Mass of ethanol

= $\frac{20}{9} \times[2(12)+6+16]$

= $\frac{20}{9}(46)$

= 102 g (3 s.f.)

Method 2: using mass of carbon dioxide produced

Mole of carbon dioxide produced

= 97.7 ÷[12 +2(16)]

= 97.7 ÷44

= $\frac{977}{440}$ mol

Moles of ethanol: moles of carbon dioxide= 1: 1

Moles of ethanol formed= $\frac{977}{440}$ mol

Mass of ethanol formed

= $\frac{977}{440} \times[2(12)+6+16]$

= 102 g (3 s.f.)

Thus, 102 g of ethanol are formed.

Which part of the atom is involved in chemical bonding with other atoms?

Leno4ka [110]

Concept:

When an atom has incomplete number of electron in its outermost orbit then it has great tendency to react with another atom which satisfies their octate either by sharing or by transferring their electrons. The involved electrons are called valence electrons.

In case of electrovalent compound, the valance electron complete their octate by transferring their valence electrons while in the covalent compound, they complete their octate by the sharing of their valence electrons.

Hence, the valence electron of the atom is involved in chemical bonding with other atoms.

Using the balanced equation below, how many grams of cesium fluoride would be required to make 73.1 g of cesium xenon heptafluor

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

27.9 g

Explanation:

CsF + XeF₆ → CsXeF₇

First we convert 73.1 g of cesium xenon heptafluoride (CsXeF₇) into moles, using its molar mass:

Molar mass of CsXeF₇ = 397.193 g/mol

73.1 g CsXeF₇ ÷ 397.193 g/mol = 0.184 mol CsXeF₇

As 1 mol of cesium fluoride (CsF) produces 1 mol of CsXeF₇, in order to produce 0.184 moles of CsXeF₇ we would need 0.184 moles of CsF.

Now we convert 0.184 moles of CsF to moles, using the molar mass of CsF:

Molar mass of CsF = 151.9 g/mol

0.184 mol * 151.9 g/mol = 27.9 g

a rock is examined to determine its age, and the ratio of uranium-235 to lead-207 is found to be 125,000:875,000. the half-life

slamgirl [31]

The old age of rock when examined is 21.4 million years if the ratio of uranium-235 to lead-207 is found to be 125,000:875,000. the half-life of uranium-235 is 700 million years.

<h3>Decaying Equation </h3>

P = [P + D] (1/2) ^(t/t(1/2))

where,

P represent the present parent amount

D is the present daughter amount

t(1/2) is the half life time period

t is the actual age

We know that,

t = (log[(P+D) /P] / log2) × t(1/2) ----------(1)

Given,

P = 97.6

D = 2.1

Ratio of P and D can be calculated as

P/D = 97.6/2.1

= 46.476

By substituting all the values in eq(1), we get

t = [(log 46.476 +1)/log2] × t(1/2)

Given,

The half life of U —Pb decay is 700 million years.

So,

t = [(log 46.476 +1)/log2] × 700

t = 21.4 million years.

Thus, we calculated that the the old age of rock when examined is 21.4 million years.
