Answer:

Cellulose is an organic compound with the formula , a polysaccharide consisting of a linear chain of several hundred to many thousands of β linked D-glucose units. Cellulose is an important structural component of the primary cell wall of green plants, many forms of algae and the oomycetes.

Answer:

Hope this helped.

Explanation:

Cellulose is a molecule, consisting of hundreds – and sometimes even thousands – of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Cellulose is the main substance in the walls of plant cells, helping plants to remain stiff and upright. Humans cannot digest cellulose, but it is important in the diet as fibre.

Use calc to determine whether it is possible to remove 99.99% Cu2 by converting it to Cu(s) in a solution mixture containing 0.1
inessss [21]

Answer:

it is possible to remove 99.99% Cu2 by converting it to Cu(s)

Explanation:

So, from the question/problem above we are given the following ionic or REDOX equations of reactions;

Cu2+ + 2e- <--------------------------------------------------------------> Cu (s) Eo= 0.339 V

Sn2+ + 2e- <---------------------------------------------------------------> Sn (s) Eo= -0.141 V

In order to convert 99.99% Cu2 into Cu(s), the equation of reaction given below is needed:

Cu²⁺ + Sn ----------------------------------------------------------------------------> Cu + Sn²⁺.

Therefore, E°[overall] = 0.339 - [-0.141] = 0.48 V.

Therefore, the change in Gibbs' free energy, ΔG° = - nFE°. Where E° = O.48V, n= 2 and F = 96500 C.

Thus, ΔG° = - 92640.

This is less than zero[0]. Therefore,  it is possible to remove 99.99% Cu2 by converting it to Cu(s) because the reaction is a spontaneous reaction.

How much heat will be absorbed by a 26.3 g piece of aluminum (specific heat = 0.930 J/g・°C) as it changes temperature from 23.0°
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 1076.196 \ Joules}}

Explanation:

Since we are given the mass, specific heat, and temperature, we should use the following formula for heat energy.

q=mc\Delta T

The mass of the aluminum is 26.3 grams. Its specific heat is 0.930 Joules per gram degree Celsius. We need to find the change in temperature.

  • The change in temperature is the difference between the initial temperature to the final temperature.
  • The temperature changes <em>from</em> 23.0°C <em>to</em> 67.0°C, so the initial is 23 degrees and the final is 67 degrees.
  • ΔT= final temperature - initial temperature
  • ΔT= 67°C - 23°C
  • ΔT= 44°C

Now we know all the values.

  • m= 26.3 g
  • c= 0.930 J/g °C
  • ΔT= 44°C

Substitute the values into the formula.

q= (26.3 \ g}) \times (0.930 \ J/g \textdegree C) \times (44 \textdegree C)

Multiply the first two numbers together. The units of grams cancel.

q= 24.459 \ J/ \textdegree C \times 44 \textdegree C

Multiply again. This time, the units of degrees Celsius cancel.

q=1076.196 \ J

<u>1076.196 Joules</u> of heat will be absorbed by the piece of aluminum.
