Answer:

C_{22} H_{24} O_{2}= Lipid

C_{22} H_{24} O_{22} = Carbohydrate

Explanation:

The given compounds have molecular formulas:

Compound 1: C_{22} H_{24} O_{2}

Compound 2: C_{22} H_{24} O_{22}

Both compounds are composed of carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) with the same C:H ratios but different O content

In compound 2, the C:H:O ratio is 1:2:1 i.e. the C and O are present in equivalent amounts. This is characteristic of carbohydrates.

In compound 1, the C:H:O ratio is 1:2:(<1). The 'O' content is less than 'C' which is characteristic of lipids.

Both molecules are long chain based polymers of carbohydrates. This can easily be told based on the fact that the 3 main elements that make up a sugar are present C , H and O.

This would be C11H12O11 in terms of simple empirical formula.

Twenty gallons of a salt solution consists of 35% salt. It is the result of mixing a 50% solution with a 25% solution. How many
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The volume of the 50% solution used is 0.8 gallons and the volume of 25% solution used is 1.2 gallons.

Explanation:

Let the volume of the 50% solution be be x gallons.

Let the volume of 25% solution be y gallons.

Total volume of the solution after mixing above volumes of the solutions = 2 gallons

x gal + y gal = 2 gal

x + y = 2 ...[1]

Percentage of the final salt solution = 35%

x\times 50\%+y\times 25\%=2 gal\times 35\%

50x+25y=70

10x+5y=14....[2]

On solving [1] and [2] , we get:

x = 0.8 , y = 1.2

So, the volume of the 50% solution used is 0.8 gallons and the volume of 25% solution used is 1.2 gallons.

A 78 g of Aluminium bar place in water. The initical water level was 132 ml and the final water level was 144 ml. Find the Volum
Effectus [21]
The volume is 12 mL (0.012 L)

Before the aluminum was added, the water reached 132mL. After it was added, it reached 144. That means the Aluminum takes up (144-132)= 12mL of space.

The density = mass/volume. If the aluminum bar has a mass of 78g and volume of 0.012L, 78/0.012=6,500 g/L

g100num [7]
<span>[Cu(NH3)4]2+ forms a blue solution. When concentrated HCl is added to this solution, what color will the solution change to yellow.

Reason: 
When conc. HCl is added to the solution containing </span>[Cu(NH3)4]2+, Cl- ions will replace NH3 and form [Cu(Cl)4]2- complex. This can be understood for the following reaction:

[Cu(NH3)4]2+     +          Cl-          ↔         [Cu(Cl)4]2-      +        NH3

The Cl- ion is a weak field ligand, while NH3 is a strong field ligand. Hence, Cl- will in less splitting of d-orbitals, as compared to NH3. Due to this, photons of different energies will be absorbed by these complexes, and hence they display different colours.

The reaction that will probably power the first commercial fusion reactor is:3 0 H + 2 1 H image from custom entry tool4 2 He +
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

2.8087*10^-12 kJ per mole of reaction (2.8087*10^-12 kJ/mol).

Explanation:

To calculate the energy produced, we need to write a balanced equation for the reaction and determine the change in the masses of the reactants and products. Afterward, we can use the energy equation to determine the energy produced. The balanced equation for the nuclear reaction is shown below:

³₁H + ²₁H ⇒⁴₂He + ¹₀n

The masses of atoms are ³₁H is 3.01605 amu, ²₁H is 2.0140 amu, ⁴₂He is 4.00260 amu, and ¹₀n is 1.008665 amu.

change in mass Δm = (3.01605+2.0140) - (4.00260+1.008665) = 0.0188 amu

Energy produced, E = m*C^2

C is the speed of light = 3*10^8 m/s and 1 amu = 1.66*10^-27 kg

Therefore:

E = 0.0188*1.66*10^-27 * (3*10^8)^2 =  2.8087*10^-12 kJ per mole of reaction.

Therefore, in scientific notation, the energy released is 2.8087*10^-12 kJ/mol
