Chromium-51 is a radioisotope that is used to assess the lifetime of red blood cells The half-life of chromium-51 is 27.7 days.

If you begin with 48.0 mg of this isotope, what mass remains after 47.9 days have passed?

Answer:

After 47.9 days, will remain 14.5mg of the isotope

Explanation:

The radioactive decay follows always first-order kinetics where its general law is:  

Ln[A] = -Kt + ln[A]₀

<em>Where [A] is actual concentration of the atom, k is rate constant, t is time and [A]₀ is initial concentration. </em>

We can find rate constant from half-life as follows:

t_{1/2} = \frac{ln2}{K}

K = ln 2 / 27.7 days

K = 0.025 days⁻¹

Replacing, initial amount of isotope is 48.0mg = [A]₀ , K is 0.025 days⁻¹ and t = 47.9 days:

Ln[A] = -Kt + ln[A]₀

Ln[A] = -0.025 days⁻¹*47.9 days + ln (48.0mg)

ln [A] = 2.6726

[A] = e^ (2.6726)

[A] = 14.5mg

<h3>After 47.9 days, will remain 14.5mg of the isotope</h3>

For the reaction 2NH3(g) + 2O2(g)N2O(g) + 3H2O(l) H° = -683.1 kJ and S° = -365.6 J/K The standard free energy change for the rea
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

\Delta G^{0} = -457.9 kJ and reaction is product favored.

Explanation:

The given reaction is associated with 2 moles of NH_{3}

Standard free energy change of the reaction (\Delta G^{0}) is given as:

           \Delta G^{0}=\Delta H^{0}-T\Delta S^{0}   , where T represents temperature in kelvin scale

So, \Delta G^{0}=(-683.1\times 10^{3})J-(273K\times -365.6J/K)=-583291.2J

So, for the reaction of 1.57 moles of NH_{3}, \Delta G^{0}=(\frac{1.57}{2})\times -583291.2J=-457883.592J=-457.9kJ

As, \Delta G^{0} is negative therefore reaction is product favored under standard condition.

Dogs use the same glycolysis and cellular processes as humans use to produce ATP. A young dog has never had much energy. He is b
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

<h2>Dog's mitochondria lack the transport protein that transport  pyruvate ( end product of glycolysis) across the outer mitochondrial  membrane .</h2>

Explanation:

1. As given here that dog's mitochondria can use only fatty acids and also  amino acids for their respiration, and  as compared to others, Dong's cell produce more lactate then normal,  this indicate that his mitochondrial membrane is different then others.  

2. The aerobic phases of cellular respiration in eukaryotes occur within  mitochondria. These aerobic phases are the TCA Cycle and the electron transport chain. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and the products of glycolysis enter into the mitochondria to continue cellular respiration.

3. These condition shows that dog's mitochondria lack the transport protein of mitochondria that moves pyruvate across the outer mitochondrial  membrane.

mart [117]

Answer:

a)\Delta G=372490 J

b)\Delta G=-568614 J

Explanation:

a) The reaction:

Mg(s) +Fe^{2+}(aq) \longrightarrow Mg^{2+}(aq) + Fe(s)

The free-energy expression:

\Delta G=-n*F*E

E=E_{red}-E_{ox]

The element wich is reduced is the Fe and the one that oxidates is the Mg:

-0.44V=E_{red}-(-2.37V)=1.93V

The electrons transfered (n) in this reaction are 2, so:

\Delta G=-2mol*96500 C/mol * 1.93 V

\Delta G=-372490 J

b) If you have values of enthalpy and enthropy you can calculate the free-energy by:

\Delta G=\Delta H - T* \Delta S

with T in Kelvin

\Delta G=-675 kJ*\frac{1000J}{kJ} - 298K*-357 J/K

\Delta G=-568614 J
