The water is warmer near the equator because the equator is closer to the sun. The suns rays will hit the water at a closer distance.
Answer:
The law of conservation of mass states that mass is neither created nor destroyed but the mass of the system must remain constant over time. The total number of atoms in the reactants is equal to the total number of atoms in the product. Therefore, this chemical equation shows that energy is conserved and demonstrates the law of conservation of mass.
Answer:
C11H25SO4
Explanation:
The total mass of the compound is 253.4 g, so, the mass of each element will be:
C: 52.14% of 253.4 = 0.5214x253.4 = 132.12 g
H: 9.946% of 253.4 = 0.09946x253.4 = 25.20 g
S: 12.66% of 253.4 = 0.1266x253.4 = 32.08 g
O: 25.26% of 253.4 = 0.2526x253.4 = 64.00 g
The molar mass are: C = 12 g/mol, H 1 g/mol, S = 32 g/mol, and O = 16 g/mol
So, to know how much moles will be, just divide the mass calculated above for the molar mass:
C: 132.12/12 = 11 moles
H: 25.20/ 1 = 25 moles
S: 32.08/32 = 1 mol
O: 64.00/16 = 4 moles
So the molecular formula is C11H25SO4
Answer:
The carbons of the acetyl group oxidize which generate CO2, and in turn H2O.
Explanation:
The pyruvic acid that is generated during glycolysis enters the mitochondria. Inside this organelle, the acid molecules undergo a process called oxidative decaborxylation in which an enzyme of several cofactors is involved, one of which is coenzyme A. Pyruvic acid is transformed into an acetyl molecule and these are been introduced to the begining of the Krebs Cycle where the acetyl-group (2C) from acetyl-CoA is transferred to oxaloacetate (4C) to produce citrate (6C). As the molecule cycles the two carbons of the acetyl oxidize and are released in the form of CO2. Then the energy of the Krebs cycle becomes sufficient to reduce three NAD +, which means that three NADH molecules are formed. Although a small portion of energy is used to generate ATP, most of it is used to reduce not only the NAD + but also the FAD which, if oxidized, passes to its reduced state, FADH2
