Why is the endocrine system important?

1 answer:

8 0

The endocrine system is important to the function of the human body because, endocrine glands release hormones into the bloodstream. Which lets the hormones travel to the cells in other parts of the body. This also helps control mood, growth and development, the way our organs work, metabolism and reproduction.

Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant, Kc , for the equilibrium shown below, if 0.124 moles of NO, 0.0240 mole of H2,

sdas [7]

the reaction is

2NO(g) + 2H2(g) <—> N2(g) + 2H2O (g)

Kc = [N2] [ H2O]^2 / [NO]^2 [ H2]^2

Given

moles of NO = 0.124 therefore [NO] = moles /volume = 0.124 /2 = 0.062

moles of H2 = 0.0240 , therefore [H2] = moles / volume = 0.0240 / 2 = 0.012

moles of N2 = 0.0380 , therefore [N2] = moles / volume = 0.0380 / 2 = 0.019

moles of H2O = 0.0276 , therefore [H2O] = moles / volume = 0.0276 / 2 = 0.0138

Kc = (0.019) ( 0.0138)^2 / (0.062)^2 ( 0.012)^2 = 6.54

Answer:

The maximum kinetic energy of electron is = 2.93 × $10^{-19}$ Joule

Explanation:

We know that total energy

$E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}$ ------------ (1)

Here h = plank's constant = 6.62 × $10^{-34}$ J s

c = speed of light = 3 × $10^{8}$ $\frac{m}{s}$

$\lambda$ = 261 nm = 261 × $10^{-9}$ m

Put all these values in equation (1) we get

E = 7.6 × $10^{-19}$ J

We know that

Total energy = Energy to remove an electron + K.E of electron

Energy to remove an electron = $\frac{281.7 (1000)}{(6.023)10^{23} }$

Energy to remove an electron = 4.67 × $10^{-19}$ J

K.E of electron = Total energy - Energy to remove an electron

K.E of electron = 7.6 × $10^{-19}$ - 4.67 × $10^{-19}$

K.E of electron = 2.93 × $10^{-19}$ Joule

Therefore the maximum kinetic energy of electron is = 2.93 × $10^{-19}$ Joule

Olin [163]

Answer:

Empirical Formula = C₃H₆O₁

Solution:

Data Given:

Mass of Ethyl Butyrate = 3.61 mg = 0.00361 g

Mass of CO₂ = 8.22 mg = 0.00822 g

Mass of H₂O = 3.35 mg = 0.00335 g

Step 1: Calculate %age of Elements as;

%C = (mass of CO₂ ÷ Mass of sample) × (12 ÷ 44) × 100

%C = (0.00822 ÷ 0.00361) × (12 ÷ 44) × 100

%C = (2.277) × (12 ÷ 44) × 100

%C = 2.277 × 0.2727 × 100

%C = 62.09 %

%H = (mass of H₂O ÷ Mass of sample) × (2.02 ÷ 18.02) × 100

%H = (0.00335 ÷ 0.00361) × (2.02 ÷ 18.02) × 100

%H = (0.9279) × (2.02 ÷ 18.02) × 100

%H = 0.9279 × 0.1120 × 100

%H = 10.39 %

%O = 100% - (%C + %H)

%O = 100% - (62.09% + 10.39%)

%O = 100% - 72.48%

%O = 27.52 %

Step 2: Calculate Moles of each Element;

Moles of C = %C ÷ At.Mass of C

Moles of C = 62.09 ÷ 12.01

Moles of C = 5.169 mol

Moles of H = %H ÷ At.Mass of H

Moles of H = 10.39 ÷ 1.01

Moles of H = 10.287 mol

Moles of O = %O ÷ At.Mass of O

Moles of O = 27.52 ÷ 16.0

Moles of O = 1.720 mol

Step 3: Find out mole ratio and simplify it;

C H O

5.169 10.287 1.720

5.169/1.720 10.287/1.720 1.720/1.720

3.00 5.98 1

3 ≈ 6 1

Result:

Empirical Formula = C₃H₆O₁
