What chemical process occurs in cells to release energy?
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

B. Respiration

Explanation:

cellular respiration is the process where cells use glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen gas (O2) to make carbon dioxide (CO2) water (H2O) and ATP, which is energy

formula:

C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H20 + 38ATP

On the basis of the information above, what is the approximate percent ionization of HNO2 in a 1.0 M HNO2 (aq) solution?
enot [183]

Answer:

The answer is "2%"

Explanation:

Equation:

HNO_2\ (aq) \leftrightharpoons  H^{+} \ (aq) + NO_2^{-}\ (aq) \\\\\  K_a = 4.0\times \ 10^{-4}

H^{+}=?

Formula:

Ka = \frac{[H^{+}][NO_2^{-}]}{[HNO_2]}

Let

[H^{+}] = [NO_2^{-}] = x at equilibrium

x^2 = (4.0\times 10^{-4})\times 1.0\\\\x = ((4.0\times 10^{-4})\times 1.0)^{0.5} = 2.0 \times 10^{-2} \  M\\\\

therefore,

[H^{+}] = 2.0\times 10^{-2} \ M = 0.02 \ M

Calculating the % ionization:

= \frac{([H^{+}]}{[HNO_2])} \times 100 \\\\= \frac{0.02}{1}\times 100 \\\\= 2\%\\\\

Question 43 please. i’m not sure if i got the right answer
hram777 [196]

a) The reaction is exothermic since the overall enthalpy change is negative. this means that the system has lost energy to the environment, namely, the apparatus and due to drought.

b) We first calculate the number of moles in 3.55 grams of magnesium.

number of moles= mass/ atomic mass

                            =3.55/24

                            =0.1479 moles(to 4sf)

now, if 2 moles of magnesium give -1204kJ

        How much energy is given by 0.1479 moles

       = (0.1479×-1204kJ)

        =-89.0358kJ (don't forget the negative sign)

c) two molesof MgO produces -1204kJ of energy

then -234kJ will be produced by

=(-234kJ×2moles)/1204kJ

=0.3887moles

one mole of MgO weighs 24+16=40

therefore the mass produced is 0.3887moles×40=15.548grams

(d) we first find the number of moles of MgO in 40.3 grams

number of moles=mass/RFM

=40.3g/40= 1.0075moles

if 2 moles of MgO give 1204 kJ then decomposing 1.0075 moles requires

(1.0075 moles×1204kJ)/2=606.515kJ

Select ALL answers that apply to the total energy of a wave:
Verdich [7]

Answer:

(A) The shorter the wavelength, the more total energy the wave contains.

(B) The longer the wavelength, the less total energy the wave contains.

Explanation:

The wavelength (λ), frequency (f) and energy (E) are interrelated. This relationship between them is represented in the following equations:

λ = v/f and E = hf

Where;

λ = wavelength (m)

f = frequency (Hz)

E = energy (Joules)

v and h represents speed of light and Planck's constants respectively.

Combining both equations, E = hc/λ

This equation shows that ENERGY (E) is directly proportional to the frequency (f) but inversely proportional to the wavelength (λ). This means that "the shorter the wavelength, the more total energy a wave contains" and vice versa.

However, the higher the frequency, the more the total energy the wave contains and vice versa.
