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}.

A 453 g piece of glass at 25.7∘C is left outside on a sunny day. How much heat must the glass absorb from the sun in order to re
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Q = 5555.6J

Explanation:

Mass of glass piece, m = 453g

initial temperature = 25.7°C

temperature to be attained = 40.3°C

⇒change in temperature, Δt = 40.3 - 25.7 = 14.6°C

specific heat of glass, s = 0.840J/g°C

Heat absorbed, Q = msΔt

⇒Q = 453×0.840×14.6 = 5555.592J

⇒<u>Q = 5555.6J</u> (rounded to the nearest tenth)

Which statement correctly describes the actual yield and the theoretical yield of a reaction? (1 point)
Furkat [3]

Answer:

C: The actual yield depends on the reaction conditions, but the theoretical yield varies only with reactant amounts

Explanation:

Looking at the options, the correct one is Option C because the actual yield usually depends on the conditions of the reaction, while the theoretical yield usually varies with only the amount of reactant.
