Organisms that eat cows do not obtain a great deal of energy from the cows. In fact, they get less energy than the cows obtain f
Reika [66]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is D) Cows release all of their energy as heat.</em>

Explanation:

Not all of the energy gets travelled from one trophic level to another. Observations have shown that only 10% of the energy travels from one trophic level to another when an organism of the upper trophic level consumes an organism of the lower trophic level. This is because most of the energy is lost by organisms as heat.

So, let's consider that there is 100% energy in plants that the cow eat. The cows will only receive 10% of the energy from the plants. The organisms that will eat the cows will only receive 1%of the energy.

An electrochemical cell has the following standard cell notation.
Alona [7]

Explanation:

The given following standard cell notation.  

Mg(s) | Mg^2+ (aq) || Aq^+(aq) | Aq(s)

Oxidation:

Mg(s)\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2e^-....(1)

Magnesium metal by loosing 2 electrons is getting converted into magnesium cation. Hence, getting oxidized

Reduction:

Ag^+(aq)+1e^-\rightarrow Ag(s)...(2)

Silver ion by gaining 1 electrons is getting converted into silver metal. Hence, getting reduced.

Overall redox reaction: (1)+2 × (2)

Mg(s)+2Ag^+(aq)\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2Ag(s)

What is the specific heat capacity of a metal if it requires 177.5 J to change the temperatures of 15.0g of the metal from 25.00
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of a metal is 1.31 J/g°C = C

Explanation:

A classical excersise of calorimetry to apply this formula:

Q = m . C . ΔT

177.5 J = 15 g . C (34°C - 25°C)

177.5 J = 15g . 9°C . C

177.5 J /15g . 9°C = C

1.31 J/g°C = C

A student in chemistry 150-02 weighed out 55.5 g of octane (C8H18) and allowed it to react with oxygen, O2. The products formed
Anni [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of octane = 55.5 g

Balanced chemical equation = ?

Mass of oxygen required to react  = ?

Mass of CO₂ for med = ?

Molecules of water produced = ?

Mass of octane required to produced 30.0 g of water = ?

Solution:

1)

Chemical equation:

2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂     →  16CO₂ + 18H₂O

2)

Mass of oxygen required to react  = ?

Mass of octane = 55.0 g

Solution:

Number of moles of octane:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 55.0 g/114.23 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.48 mol

Now we will compare the moles of octane with oxygen.

                        C₈H₁₈          :           O₂

                           2              :            25

                         0.48          :          25/2×0.48 = 6 mol

Mass of oxygen required:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 6 mol × 32 g/mol

Mass = 192 g

3)

Given data:

Mass of carbon dioxide produced = ?

Mass of octane = 55g

Solution:

Number of moles of octane:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 55.0 g/114.23 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.48 mol

Now we will compare the moles of octane with CO₂.

                        C₈H₁₈          :           CO₂

                           2              :            16

                         0.48          :          16/2×0.48 = 3.84 mol

Mass of CO₂ produced:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3.84 mol × 44 g/mol

Mass = 168.96 g

4)

Given data:

Molecules of water produced = ?

Mass of octane = 55g

Solution:

Number of moles of octane:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 55.0 g/114.23 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.48 mol

Now we will compare the moles of octane with H₂O.

                        C₈H₁₈          :           H₂O

                           2              :            18

                         0.48          :          18/2×0.48 = 4.32 mol

Number  of molecules of water:

1 mol = 6.022× 10²³ molecules

4.32 mol × 6.022× 10²³ molecules/ 1 mol

26 × 10²³ molecules

5)

Given data:

Mass of octane required = ?

Mass of water produced = 30 g

Solution:

Number of moles of water.

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 30 g/ 18 gmol

Number  of moles = 1.67 mol

Now we will compare the moles of water and octane from balance chemical equation:

2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂     →  16CO₂ + 18H₂O

                 

H₂O        :         C₈H₁₈

 18          :          2

 1.67       :       2/18×1.67 = 0.185 mol

Mass of octane:

Mass = number of moles ×molar mass

Mass = 0.185 × 114.23 g/mol

Mass = 21.13 g
