Suppose that a certain fortunate person has a net worth of $77.0 billion ($). If her stock has a good year and gains $3.20 billi

on () in value, what is her new net worth? Express your answer to three significant figures. Suppose that this individual now decides to give one-eighth of a percent (0.125 ) of her new net worth to charity. How many dollars are given to charity? The answer is not 10.0025 or 12.5. I have been working at this problem and just need to figure out how do this for future reference.

Answer:

New net worth to three significant figures = $80.2 billion

Dollars are given to charity = $100,250,000

Explanation:

Net worth = $77.0 billion

stock Gains = $3.20 billion

New net worth = $77.0 billion + $3.20 billion = $80.20 billion

New net worth to three significant figures = $80.2 billion

One-eighth of a percent = (1/8 x 1) / 100 = 0.00125

Dollars are given to charity = 0.00125 X $80.2 billion = $100,250,000

Or

$80,200,000,000/100 = $802,000,000

Organic chemistry as the the study of general properties and compositions of organic compounds.

<h3 />

<h3>What is organic chemistry?</h3>

Organic chemistry can be simply defined as the study of organic compounds.

Organic chemistry studies the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation of carbon-containing compounds also known as organic compounds.

Thus, we can defined organic chemistry as the the study of general properties and compositions of organic compounds.

The water in a pressure cooker boils at a temperature greater than 100°C because it is under pressure. At this higher temperatur

vazorg [7]

Answer:

the activation energy Ea = 179.176 kJ/mol

it will take 7.0245 mins for the same food to cook in an open pot of boiling water at an altitude of 10000 feet.

Explanation:

From the given information

$T_1 = 100^0 C = 100+273 = 373 \ K \\ \\ T_2 = 113^0 C = 113 + 273 = 386 \ K$

$R_1 = \dfrac{1}{7}$

$R_2 = \dfrac{1}{49}$

Thus; $\dfrac{R_2}{R_1} = 7$

Because at 113.0°C; the rate is 7 time higher than at 100°C

Hence:

$In (7) = \dfrac{Ea}{8.314}( \dfrac{1}{373}- \dfrac{1}{386})$

1.9459 = $\dfrac{Ea}{8.314}* 9.0292 *10^{-5}$

$1.9459*8.314 = Ea * 9.0292*10^{-5}$

$16.1782126= Ea * 9.0292*10^{-5}$

$Ea = \dfrac{16.1782126}{ 9.0292*10^{-5}}$

Ea = 179.176 kJ/mol

Thus; the activation energy Ea = 179.176 kJ/mol

b)

here;

$T_2 = 386 \ K \\ \\T_1 = (89.8 + 273)K = 362.8 \ K$

$In(\dfrac{R_2}{R_1})= \dfrac{Ea}{R}(\dfrac{1}{T_1}- \dfrac{1}{T_2})$

$In(\dfrac{R_2}{R_1})= \dfrac{179.176}{8.314}(\dfrac{1}{362.8}- \dfrac{1}{386})$

$In (\dfrac{R_2}{R_1}) = 0.00357$

$\dfrac{R_2}{R_1}= e^{0.00357}$

$\dfrac{R_2}{R_1}= 1.0035$

where ;

$R_2 = \dfrac{1}7{}$

$R_1 = \dfrac{1}{t}$

Now;

$\dfrac{t}{7}= 1.0035$

t = 7.0245 mins

Therefore; it will take 7.0245 mins for the same food to cook in an open pot of boiling water at an altitude of 10000 feet.

The enzyme, carbonic anhydrase, is a large zinc-containing protein with a molar mass of 3.00 x10^4 g/mol. Zn is 0.218% by mass o

tia_tia [17]

The mathematical expression for mass percent is given by:

$Mass percent = \frac{mass of the compound}{molar mass of the compound}\times 100$

Put the values,

$0.218 percent of zinc = \frac{mass of zinc}{3.00 \times 10^{4} g/mol}\times 100$

mass of zinc = $0.218 \times (3\times 100) g$

= $0.654 \times 100 g$ or 65.4 g

Now, number of moles of zinc = $\frac{given mass in g}{molar mass of zinc}$

= $\frac{65.4 g}{65.38 g/mol}$

= 1.00 mole

Number of atoms of zinc is calculated by the Avogadro number.

Now, according to mole concept

$6.022\times 10^{23}$ molecules of enzyme consists of $6.022\times 10^{23}$ atoms of zinc

So, 1 molecule of enzyme contains = $\frac{6.022\times 10^{23}atoms of zinc}{6.022\times 10^{23} }$

= 1 atom of zinc.

Hence, every carbonic anhydrase molecule consists of 1 atom of zinc.
