Hello there!

First, we need to know what compounds are.
Compounds "are pure substances that are made up of two or more elements that are chemically combined in fixed mass ratios."

Now we need to understand what chemical formulas are.
The compounds have a chemical formula which tell us that
a) the elements that are present in the compound
b) the ratio of these elements in the compound

What are some chemical formulas for compounds?
Well, we start with water. The chemical formula for water is H2O

When we go back to the definition of compounds, it says it is when a pure substance that are made up two or more elements. So, whatever is a pure substance and it's made up of two elements. These elements are Hydrogen and Oxygen. And keep an mind that water is made up with metal plus non-metal.

The half-life of radioactive substance is 2.5 minutes. what fraction of the origional radioactive remains after 10 mins
saul85 [17]
The answer is 1/16.

Half-life is the time required for the amount of a sample to half its value.
To calculate this, we will use the following formulas:
1. (1/2)^{n} = x,
where:
<span>n - a number of half-lives
</span>x - a remained fraction of a sample

2. t_{1/2} = \frac{t}{n}
where:
<span>t_{1/2} - half-life
</span>t - <span>total time elapsed
</span><span>n - a number of half-lives
</span>
So, we know:
t = 10 min
<span>t_{1/2} = 2.5 min

We need:
n = ?
x = ?
</span>
We could first use the second equation to calculate n:
<span>If:
t_{1/2} = \frac{t}{n},
</span>Then: 
n = \frac{t}{ t_{1/2} }
⇒ n = \frac{10 min}{2.5 min}
⇒ n=4<span>
</span>
Now we can use the first equation to calculate the remained fraction of the sample.
<span>(1/2)^{n} = x
</span>⇒ x=(1/2)^4
<span>⇒x= \frac{1}{16}</span>

Where does the chemical energy to produce ATP come from
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

glucose

Explanation:

Chemical energy is stored in the bonds that hold the molecule together. ADP can be recycled into ATP when more energy becomes available. The energy to make ATP comes from glucose. Cells convert glucose to ATP in a process called cellular respiration.

Liquid water boiling in an open pan on a stove is our system. Is the system open or closed? What boundary transfers are happenin
valina [46]

Answer:

It's an open system, tranfering heat through a rigid, diathermal wall and matter through an imaginary and permeable wall, and it is not at steady state.

Explanation:

  • An <em>open system</em> is that that interacts with its surroundings exchanging energy and matter. In an open pan with boiling water you have an open system because steam (matter) is leaving the system, as well as heat (energy) through the pan/stove.
  • A<em> boundary</em> is what separates the system from its surroundings, there are many types of boundaries, based on how they transfer energy they can be diathermal (conducting heat) or adiabatic (insulating), on their rigidity they can be rigid, flexible, imaginary or movable and based on their permeability. For the system described we have an imaginary boundary on top that is also permeable allowing matter to go out or in the system, and another wall (the stove/pan itself that is rigid and impermeable avoiding the loss of matter and diathermal, allowing the conduction of heat.
  • It is said that a system is at a<em> steady state</em> when the variables that define that system remain constant over time. In an open pan, you can't fully control those variables, you'll have matter and energy scaping from it with no way to regulate it.

I hope you find interesting and useful this information! good luck!
