How many mols of a 3M NaOH solution are in 1L of the solution?
Alex

To calculate this, we need the Molarity formula. This formula tell us that Molarity, which is a concentration unit, is equal to the number of moles divided by the volume. In this question we already have the Molarity and the Volume, so let's build our equation:

C = n/V (You can see Molarity with the letter "C" because it means concentration)

3 = n/1

n = 1 * 3

n = 3 moles of NaOH

Why must living things rely on thousands of catalysts for chemical reactions necessary for life?
Murrr4er [49]
Well, you don't need enzymes (biological catalysts) if you're willing to wait a century or two to digest a burger.

Without catalysts, complex reactions like digestion would take too long and the organism could not extract energy from the nutrients it eats in a practical time frame.

In addition, speed is everything in the biological world.

Some reactions and their speed relative to other organisms reactions determines who survives and who doesn't, among other aspects of life.

If a plant is slow to photosynthesize and grow in a habitat high in competition for sunlight real estate, other autotrophs will surely take over.
