The human eye contains a certain protein called rhodopsin that changes shape when it is exposed to light. When rhodopsin absorbs

light, part of it undergoes a chemical change. This is how eyes sense the presence of light.

The human eye contains a molecule called 11-cis-retinal that changes conformation when struck with light of sufficient energy. The change in conformation triggers a series of events that results in an electrical signal being sent to the brain. The minimum energy required to change the conformation of 11-cis-retinal within the eye is about 164 {\rm kJ}/{\rm mol}.

What is the gasoline doing to our environment?
luda_lava [24]
Gasoline use contributes to air pollution
Gasoline is a toxic and highly flammable liquid. The vapors given off when gasoline evaporates and the substances produced when gasoline is burned (carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, and unburned hydrocarbons) contribute to air pollution. Burning gasoline also produces carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas.

Suppose you have a sample of table salt (NaCl) that has a mass of 100.0 grams. If
IgorC [24]

Taking into account the definition of molarity, the concentration of the solution is 0.855 \frac{moles}{liter}.

<h3>Definition of molarity</h3>

Molar concentration or molarity is a measure of the concentration of a solute in a solution and indicates the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a given volume.

The molarity of a solution is calculated by dividing the moles of solute by the volume of the solution:

Molarity=\frac{number of moles}{volume}

Molarity is expressed in units \frac{moles}{liter}.

<h3>Molarity of NaCl</h3>

In this case, you have:

  • number of moles of NaCl= 100 grams\frac{1 mole}{58.45 grams} =1.71 moles (being 58.45 g/mole the molar mass of NaCl)
  • volume 2 L

Replacing in the definition of molarity:

Molarity=\frac{1.71 moles}{2 L}

Solving:

Molarity= 0.855 \frac{moles}{liter}

Finally, the concentration of the solution is 0.855 \frac{moles}{liter}.

Wine goes bad soon after opening because the ethanol ch3ch2oh in it reacts with oxygen gas o2 from the air to form water h2o and
lilavasa [31]
The balanced chemical equation of the reaction described above is,

                            C2H6O + O2 --> H2O  + C2H4O2

If we have 3.84 g of oxygen, we divide by its molar mass.
 
                               n = (3.54 g Oxygen gas) x (1 mole O2/ 32 g O2)
                                 n = 0.11 moles O2

Using ratio and proportion,

               number of moles of ethanol = (0.11 moles O2) x (1 mole C2H6)
                                                  = 0.11 moles C2H6

Then, we multiply the calculated value to its molar mass, 46 grams /mol.
                    mass of ethanol = (0.11 mol) x (46 grams / mol)
                                                = <em>5.06 grams</em>
