They are pumped across the mitochondrial inner membrane against their concentration gradient (to where their concentration is high); as the H+ ions flow back to where their concentration is low, they drive ATP synthase to form ATP

Answer:

[OH-] = 6.17 *10^-10

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

pOH = 9.21

Step 2: Calculate [OH-]

pOH = -log [OH-] = 9.21

[OH-] = 10^-9.21

[OH-] = 6.17 *10^-10

Step 3: Check if it's correct

pOH + pH = 14

[H+]*[OH-] = 10^-14

pH = 14 - 9.21 = 4.79

[H+] = 10^-4.79

[H+] = 1.62 *10^-5

6.17 * 10^-10 * 1.62 * 10^-5 = 1* 10^-14

Calculate the [oh−] in a solution with a ph of 12.52.

BaLLatris [955]

PH + pOH = 14

12.52 + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - 12.52

pOH = 1.48

[OH⁻] = 10^ -pOH

[OH⁻] = 10 ^- 1.48

[OH⁻] = 0.033 M

1.20 x 10^22 molecules NaOH to gram

Trava [24]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.797 \ g \ NaOH}}$

Explanation:

<u>1. Convert Molecules to Moles</u>

First, we must convert molecules to moles using Avogadro's Number: 6.022*10²³. This tells us the number of particles in 1 mole of a substance. In this case, the particles are molecules of sodium hydroxide.

$\frac {6.022*10^{23} \ molecules \ NaOH} {1 \ mol \ NaOH}}$

Multiply by the given number of molecules.

$1.20*10^{22} \ molecules \ NaOH *\frac {6.022*10^{23} \ molecules \ NaOH} {1 \ mol \ NaOH}}$

Flip the fraction so the molecules cancel out.

$1.20*10^{22} \ molecules \ NaOH *\frac {1 \ mol \ NaOH} {6.022*10^{23} \ molecules \ NaOH}}$

$1.20*10^{22} *\frac {1 \ mol \ NaOH} {6.022*10^{23}}}$

$\frac {1.20*10^{22} \ mol \ NaOH} {6.022*10^{23}}}$

$0.0199269345732 \ mol \ NaOH$

<u>2. Convert Moles to Grams</u>

Next, we convert moles to grams using the molar mass.

We must calculate the molar mass using the values on the Periodic Table. Look up each individual element.

Na: 22.9897693 g/mol
O: 15.999 g/mol
H: 1.008 g/mol

Since the formula has no subscripts, we can simply add the molar masses.

NaOH: 22.9897693+15.999+1.008=39.9967693 g/mol

Use this as a ratio.

$\frac {39.9967693 \ g \ NaOH }{1 \ mol \ NaOH}$

Multiply by the number of moles we calculated.

$0.0199269345732 \ mol \ NaOH*\frac {39.9967693 \ g \ NaOH }{1 \ mol \ NaOH}$

The moles of sodium hydroxide cancel.

$0.0199269345732 *\frac {39.9967693 \ g \ NaOH }{1}$

$0.0199269345732 *39.9967693 \ g \ NaOH$

$0.79701300498 \ g \ NaOH$

The original measurement of molecules has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the thousandth place. The 0 tells us to leave the 7 in the hundredth place.

$0.797 \ g \ NaOH$

1.20*10²² molecules of sodium hydroxide is approximately 0.797 grams.

Which of the following can be described as genetic material that directs the cell? (2 points)

salantis [7]

I think that answer you are looking for is "The Nucleus" because DNA contains genetic material but the Nucleus directs the cell.
