Answer:

the empirical formula gives the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in the compound. Molecular formula gives the actual composition of elements in the compound.

Explanation:

empirical formula - CH₂O

Mass of one empirical unit = 12 + (1x2) + 16 = 30 a.m.u

We have to next calculate how many empirical units make up the molecular formula. For that we have to divide molecular mass by mass of one empirical unit.

Number of empirical units = 180 a.m.u / 30 = 6

There are 6 empirical units 

Therefore molecular formula = 6 x(CH₂O) = C₆H₁₂O₆

Molecular formula = C₆H₁₂O₆

at standard pressure, what is the temperature at which a saturated solution of NH4Cl has a concentration of 60g NH4CL/100 g H2O
Nataliya [291]

Answer: Temperature = T, unknown

Saturated Solution, NH4Cl concentration = 60g/100g H2O = 0.6g NH4Cl/g H2O

Assume density of H2O = 1 g/ml

m = 0.6g NH4Cl/g H2O / 1 g/ml

m = 0.6g NH4Cl/ml

See the table of saturated solutions and identify the temperature at which the concentration of NH4Cl is 60g/100g H2O.

Explanation:  The line on the graph on reference table G indicates a saturated solution of NH4CL as a concentration of 60. g NH4 Cl/100. g H2O

Calculate the amount of ATP in kg that is turned over by a resting human every 24 hours. Assume that a typical human contains ~5
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is 66.35 kilograms.

Explanation:

Based on the data given in the question, the energy consumed by the body of a human being is 50%. Based on the given data, the energy consumed in a day is 8000 kJ, 50 percent is the energy transfer efficiency. Thus, the consumption of total energy is 4000 kJ, and for the transformation of ADP to ATP, the energy involved is 30.6 kJ per mole.  

Hence, the total ATP produced in the process is,  

ATP = 4000 kJ / 30.6 kJ/mol

= 130.7189 mol.  

Thus, with the energy transfer efficiency of 50 percent, the total moles of ATP produced is 130.7 mol.  

The mass of ATP can be calculated by using the formula,  

moles = mass/molecular mass

The molecular mass of ATP is 507.18 g per mol

Now by putting the values we get,  

mass of ATP = 130.7189 mol * 507.18 g/mol

= 66298.011 g or 66.298 kg

It is mentioned that human comprise 50 g of ATP or 0.05 kg of ATP. Therefore, the sum of the available ATP will be.  

= Total production of ATP + Total ATP available

= 66.298 kg + 0.05 kg

= 66.348 kg

Hence, the sum of the ATP that is turned over by a resting human in a day is 66.35 kg.
