What is the standard unit used to measure mass? cubic meters gram liter meter

The human body can get energy by metabolizing proteins, carbohydrates or fatty acids, depending on the circumstances. Roughly sp

Kamila [148]

Answer:

the ratio of the energy the body gets metabolizing each gram of alanine to the energy the body gets metabolizing each gram of glucose is 1.0111

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

To determine the ratio of the energy the body gets metabolizing each gram of alanine to the energy the body gets metabolizing each gram of glucose, first we get the molar masses of both alanine and glucose

we know that;

Molar mass of alanine ( C₃H₇NO₂ ) = 89.09 g/mol

Molar mass of glucose ( C₆H₁₂O₆ ) = 180.16 g/mol

now, { metabolizing each gram }

moles of alanine = mass taken / molar mass

= 1g / 89.09 g/mol = 1/89.09 moles

moles of glucose = mass taken / molar mass

= 1g / 180.16 g/mol = 1/180.16 moles

In each molecule of alanine, we have 3 atoms of carbon.

Also, in each molecules of glucose, we have 6 atoms of carbon

so,

number of moles of Carbons in alanine = 3 × 1/89.09 moles = 0.03367

number of moles of Carbons in glucose = 6 × 1/180.16 moles = 0.0333

so ratio of energy will be the ratio of carbon atoms, which is;

⇒ 0.03367 / 0.0333 = 1.0111

Therefore, the ratio of the energy the body gets metabolizing each gram of alanine to the energy the body gets metabolizing each gram of glucose is 1.0111

Name each of the following species for the following acid-base reactions. (The equilibrium lies to the right in each case, i.e.,

DaniilM [7]

Answer: a) $H_3O^++CH_3O^-\rightleftharpoons CH_3OH+H_2O$

acid : hydronium ion

base : methoxide ion

conjugate acid : methanol

conjugate base: water

b) $CH_3CH_2O^-+HCl\rightleftharpoons CH_3CH_2OH+Cl^-$

acid : hydrogen chloride

base : ethoxide ion

conjugate acid : ethanol

conjugate base: chloride ion

c) $NH_2^-+CH_3OH\rightleftharpoons NH_3+CH_3O^-$

acid : methanol

base : amide ion

conjugate acid : ammonia

conjugate base: methoxide ion

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which looses donates protons and thus forming conjugate base and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and thus forming conjugate acid.

The species accepting a proton is considered as a base and after accepting a proton, it forms a conjugate acid.

The species losing a proton is considered as an acid and after loosing a proton, it forms a conjugate base

For the given chemical equation:

a) $H_3O^++CH_3O^-\rightleftharpoons CH_3OH+H_2O$

acid : hydronium ion

base : methoxide ion

conjugate acid : methanol

conjugate base: water

b) $CH_3CH_2O^-+HCl\rightleftharpoons CH_3CH_2OH+Cl^-$

acid : hydrogen chloride

base : ethoxide ion

conjugate acid : ethanol

conjugate base: chloride ion

c) $NH_2^-+CH_3OH\rightleftharpoons NH_3+CH_3O^-$

acid : methanol

base : amide ion

conjugate acid : ammonia

conjugate base: methoxide ion

When carbon is burned in air, it reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. When 14.4 g of carbon were burned in the presence of

Natasha2012 [34]

When carbon reacts with oxygen it forms CO2. This can depicted by the below equation.

C + O2→ CO2

It has been mentioned that when 14.4 g of C reacts with 53.9 g of O2, then 15.5 g of O2 remains unreacted. This indicates that Carbon is the limiting reagent and hence the amount of CO2 produced is based on the amount of Carbon burnt.

C + O2→ CO2

In the above equation , 1 mole of carbon reacts with 1 mole of O2 to produce 1 mole of CO2.

In this case 14.4 g of Carbon reacts with 53.9 of O2 to produce "x"g of CO2.

No of moles = mass of the substance÷molar mass of the substance

No of moles of carbon = 14.4 /12= 1.2 moles

No of moles of O2 = Mass of reacted O2/Molar mass of O2.

No of moles of O2 = (Total mass of O2 burned - Mass of unreacted O2)/32

No of moles of O2 = (53.9-15.5) ÷ 32 = 1.2 moles.

Hence as already discussed 1 mole of Carbon reacts with 1 mole of O2 to produce 1 mole of CO2. In this case 1.2 moles of carbon reacts with 1.2 moles of O2 to produce 1.2 moles of CO2.

Moles of carbon dioxide = Mass of CO2 produced /Molar mass of CO2

Mass of CO2 produced(x) = Moles of CO2 ×Molar mass of CO2

Mass of CO2 produced(x) = 1.2 x 44 = 52.8 g

Thus 52.8 g of CO2 is produced.

Which half-reaction can occur at the anode in a

alexira [117]

The answer is (3). The reaction that can occur at the anode is oxidation reaction which will lose electrons. So (1) and (2) are not correct. For (4) Fe3+ can not lose electrons again.
