Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Chylomicron is a small fat globule which is made of protein and lipids. These substances are found in the lymphatic fluid and blood where they tend to transport fat from the entry in the intestine to the liver and adipose tissue.

Once, one eats the fatty meal the blood is full of a number of chylomicrons which provides the blood texture.

The food that is digested is absorbed and transported to various parts of the body.

How many joules of energy are required to vaporize 13.1 kg of lead at its normal boiling point?
Korolek [52]

Answer: 1123000 Joules of energy are required to vaporize 13.1 kg of lead at its normal boiling point

Explanation:

Latent heat of vaporization is the amount of heat required to convert 1 mole of liquid to gas at atmospheric pressure.

Amount of heat required to vaporize 1 mole of lead =  177.7 kJ

Molar mass of lead = 207.2 g

Mass of lead given = 1.31 kg = 1310 g       (1kg=1000g)

Heat required to vaporize 207.2 of lead = 177.7 kJ

Thus Heat required to vaporize 1310 g of lead =\frac{177.7}{207.2}\times 1310=1123kJ=1123000J

Thus 1123000 Joules of energy are required to vaporize 13.1 kg of lead at its normal boiling point

Calcium carbide reacts with water to produce acetylene gas according to the following equation: CaC2(s) + 2H2O(l)C2H2(g) + Ca(OH
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer: The number of moles of CaC_2 reacted was 0.229

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = Total pressure - vapor pressure of water = (749 - 23.8) mm Hg= 725.2 mm Hg = 0.954 atm    (760mmHg= 1atm)

V = Volume of gas = 5.87 L

n = number of moles = ?

R = gas constant =0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature =25^0C=(25+273)K=298K

n=\frac{PV}{RT}

n=\frac{0.954atm\times 5.87L}{0.0821 L atm/K mol\times 298K}=0.229moles

CaC_2(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow C_2H_2(g)+Ca(OH)_2(aq)

According to stoichiometry:

1 mole of C_2H_2 is produced by = 1 mole of CaC_2

Thus 0.229 moles of C_2H_2 is produced by = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.229=0.229 moles of CaC_2

Thus number of moles of CaC_2 reacted was 0.229
