<span>This is called "The capture theory" which states that the Earth's Moon was captured by the gravitational pull of our planet, meaning that it formed elsewhere, and then was pulle dinto place by the Earth, already formed. This would rely upon the ideas that a asteroid pased close enough to the Earth's orbit to be "captured".</span>

Synthesize Information In a multistep process, cells can combine the reactants glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2) to form the pro
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In one of the process, energy is built up from scratch, in the other one, energy is liberated for use by an organism or body.

The first process deals with a metabolic reaction in which energy is liberated:

         C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂  → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy

In the above process, energy is liberated when glucose combines with oxygen. The waste products are carbon dioxide and water. This process liberates heat energy which can be used to do work.

   In the reverse process:

             6CO₂ + 6H₂O   →  C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

    This process stores energy in carbon chains as chemical energy. It is this energy that is released in the first process.

Therefore, we can see that the first process liberates energy and the reverse process stores energy.

Ascorbic acid (vitamin
svlad2 [7]

Let us see the structure of ascorbic acid


As shown there is no COOH group however the OH group can lose a proton and forms conjugate base

The conjugate base formed is stabilized due to resonance

More the stability of conjugate base more the strength of acid

Hence ascorbic acid behaves as an acid

What is the main exception in the atomic radius? Explain.
yarga [219]

Answer:

The atomic radius of atoms generally decreases from left to right across a period. There are some small exceptions, such as the oxygen radius being slightly greater than the nitrogen radius. Within a period, protons are added to the nucleus as electrons are being added to the same principal energy level.

hope this helps!

The combustion of butane produces heat according to the equation 2C4H10(g) + 13O2(g) → 8CO2(g) + 10H2O(l), ΔH°rxn= –5,314 kJ/mol
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

665 g

Explanation:

Let's consider the following thermochemical equation.

2 C₄H₁₀(g) + 13 O₂(g) → 8 CO₂(g) + 10 H₂O(l), ΔH°rxn= –5,314 kJ/mol

According to this equation, 5,314 kJ are released per 8 moles of CO₂. The moles produced when 1.00 × 10⁴ kJ are released are:

-1.00 × 10⁴ kJ × (8 mol CO₂/-5,314 kJ) = 15.1 mol CO₂

The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01 g/mol. The mass corresponding to 15.1 moles is:

15.1 mol × 44.01 g/mol = 665 g
