After Callie obtained her original results, she wanted to dig deeper. She determined that the germinating corn seed had utilized

100 molecules of glucose in the first few seconds that she performed the experiment. If these data are accurate, how many carbon dioxide molecules would Callie expect to have been released as a waste during this same amount of time? Explain how you arrived at your answer. The formula for cellular respiration is shown below.
C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy

Answer:

Callie expect 600 molecules of CO2 to have been released as a waste during the same amount of time.

Explanation:

During cellular respiration 1 molecule of glucose undergoes oxidation to form 6 molecules of CO2 as a waste product.

According to the question callie determined that the germinating corn seed had utilized 100 molecules of glucose.

So 100 molecules of glucose will release 100×6=600 molecules of CO2 as a waste product.

Answer: 600 molecules of CO2

Explanation:

C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy

From the above balanced equation, 1 mole of glucose produces 6 moles of CO2.

Mathematically,

1 mole of C6H12O6 = 6 moles of CO2

Let,

100 moles of C6H12O6 = x mole of CO2

By simply cross multiply,

x mole of CO2 = (6 ×100)/1 mole

x mole of CO2 = 600 mole

Callie should expect 600 molecules of carbon dioxide to have been released as a waste during this same amount of time.

One kilogram of water at 100 0C is cooled reversibly to 15 0C. Compute the change in entropy. Specific heat of water is 4190 J/K

mina [271]

Answer:

The change in entropy is -1083.112 joules per kilogram-Kelvin.

Explanation:

If the water is cooled reversibly with no phase changes, then there is no entropy generation during the entire process. By the Second Law of Thermodynamics, we represent the change of entropy ( $s_{2} - s_{1}$ ), in joules per gram-Kelvin, by the following model:

$s_{2} - s_{1} = \int\limits^{T_{2}}_{T_{1}} {\frac{dQ}{T} }$

$s_{2} - s_{1} = m\cdot c_{w} \cdot \int\limits^{T_{2}}_{T_{1}} {\frac{dT}{T} }$

$s_{2} - s_{1} = m\cdot c_{w} \cdot \ln \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}$ (1)

Where:

$m$ - Mass, in kilograms.

$c_{w}$ - Specific heat of water, in joules per kilogram-Kelvin.

$T_{1}$ , $T_{2}$ - Initial and final temperatures of water, in Kelvin.

If we know that $m = 1\,kg$ , $c_{w} = 4190\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot K}$ , $T_{1} = 373.15\,K$ and $T_{2} = 288.15\,K$ , then the change in entropy for the entire process is:

$s_{2} - s_{1} = (1\,kg) \cdot \left(4190\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot K} \right)\cdot \ln \frac{288.15\,K}{373.15\,K}$

$s_{2} - s_{1} = -1083.112\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot K}$

The change in entropy is -1083.112 joules per kilogram-Kelvin.

What is molarity and how is it calculated? If possible, please explain it to me detailed. Thank you :)

Lyrx [107]

Molarity is a concentration unit, defined to be the number of moles of solute divided by the number of liters of solution.

What is the oh- in a solution with a poh of 5.71

Rudik [331]

Answer:- The hydroxide ion concentration of the solution is $1.95*10^-^6$ .

Solution:- The formula used to calculate pOH from hydroxide ion is:

$pOH=-log[OH^-]$

When pOH is given and we are asked to calculate hydroxide ion concentration then we multiply both sides by negative sign and take antilog and what we get on doing this is:

$[OH^-]=10^-^p^O^H$

pOH is given as 5.71 and we are asked to calculate hydrogen ion concentration. Let's plug in the given value in the formula:

$[OH^-]=10^-^5^.^7^1$

$[OH^-]$ = 0.00000195 or $1.95*10^-^6$

So, the hydroxide ion concentration of the solution is $1.95*10^-^6$ .

Buckets of paint can be classified as what type of mixture?

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Homogeneous

Explanation:

Homogeneous mixtures are uniform in composition. They have the same proportion of components throughout. Homogeneous mixtures are called solutions. Sugar, paint, alcohol, gold are all examples of homogeneous mixtures because they look the same throughout.
