1. Answer;

-Cells

Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things.

Explanation;

-Cells are the basic building blocks of all living things. They are the smallest and basic units of life. Cells consist of cytoplasm enclosed within a membrane, which contains many bio-molecules such as proteins and nucleic acids and organelles that carry out various activities of a cell.

2. Answer;

-Tissue

A tissue is a group of similar cells that perform a specific function in an organism.

Explanation;

-Tissues are groups of cells that have a similar structure and act together to perform a specific function.

-In human body there are four main types of tissue: muscle, epithelial, connective and nervous. Each is made of specialized cells that are grouped together according to structure and function.

3.Answer;

Motor neurons

Motor neurons are nerve cells that carry response information to muscles and organs.

Explanation;

Motor neurons are a specialized type of brain cell called neurons located within the spinal cord and the brain. Motor neurons carry impulses from the Central nervous system to the effector organs , mainly muscles and glands.

-The cell body of the motor neuron is located in the CNS and their axons projects to the spinal cord or outside of the spinal cord to directly or indirectly control effector organs.

4. Answer;

Energy

Carbon dioxide and energy are outputs of cellular respiration.   

Explanation;

-Cellular respiration is the process that takes place in the mitochondria of a cell that breaks down nutrients such as glucose to release energy in form of ATP and carbon dioxide and water as by products.

-The energy released from cellular respiration is used to drive cellular processes such as growth, reproduction and transport among others.

5. Answer;

-Water 

Water is essential to living things because many of the chemical reactions that occur in living things require it.

Explanation;

-Water is vital for the survival of living organisms. All plants and animals must have water to survive. If there was no water there would be no life on earth. Water helps dissolves minerals and other nutrients in the body and also carries nutrients and oxygen to cells in the brain and other parts of the body.

6. Answer;

-Microscope

Scientists did not discover the cell until the microscope was invented because cells are too small to see without one.

Explanation;

- Microscopes are devices that are used to observe very tiny substances or organisms that we can not see with our naked eyes.

-Discovery of microscopes played a major role in the discovery of cells. The cell was first discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665 using a microscope.

What is thermal expansion?
Charra [1.4K]
Thermal expansion<span> is the tendency of matter to change in shape, area, and volume in response to a change in temperature, through heat transfer. Temperature is a monotonic function of the average molecular kinetic energy of a substance. When a substance is heated, the kinetic energy of its molecules increases.</span>

A mixture of c2h2 and ch4 has a total mass of 230.9 g. when this mixture reacts completely with excess oxygen, the co2 and h2o p
Salsk061 [2.6K]
Interesting problem. Thanks for posting.

C2H2 + (3/2)02 ====>  H2O + 2CO2
CH4 +  2O2 =====> 2H2O + CO2

The molar mass of C2H2 = 2*12 + 2*1 = 26
The molar mass of CH4 = 1*12 + 4*1 = 16

The number of moles of C2H2 = x
The number of moles of  CH4 = y
26x + 16y = 230.9 grams

For water we get (from the C2H2). Water has a molar mass of 2*1 + 16 = 18

x*18 See the balanced equation to see what it is the same number of moles as C2H2
From the methane we get
y*18
2*y* 18. Again see the balanced equation to see where that 2 came from.
18x + 36y is the total amount of water. 

Now for the CO2. CO2 has a molar mass of 12 + 2*16 = 44
From C2H2  we get 2*44*x = 88x grams of CO2
From CH4 we get 1*y*44 grams of CO2
88x + 44y for CO2

Now we total to get the grand total of water and CO2
18x + 44y + 88x + 44y = 972.7 grams total.
106x + 88y =  972.7

Two equations, two unknowns, we should be able to solve this problem
26x + 16y = 230.9
106x + 88y = 972.7

I'm not going to go through the math unless you request me to do so. 
x = 8.03 moles
y = 1.38 moles 

The initial amount of C2H2 was 8.03 * 26 = 208.78
The initial amount of CH4 was 16*1.38 = 22.08
The total (as a check is 230.86 which is pretty close to the given amount.
So Methane's mass in the initial givens was 22.08 grams.
