Answer:

-5.51 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the heat required to heat the water.

We use the following expression.

Q = c \times m \times \Delta T

where,

  • c: specific heat capacity
  • m: mass
  • ΔT: change in the temperature

The average density of water is 1 g/mL, so 75.0 mL ≅ 75.0 g.

Q = 4.184J/g.\°C \times 75.0g \times (95.00\°C - 25.00\°C) = 2.20 \times 10^{3} J = 2.20 kJ

Step 2: Calculate the heat released by the methane

According to the law of conservation of energy, the sum of the heat released by the combustion of methane (Qc) and the heat absorbed by the water (Qw) is zero

Qc + Qw = 0

Qc = -Qw = -22.0 kJ

Step 3: Calculate the molar heat of combustion of methane.

The molar mass of methane is 16.04 g/mol. We use this data to find the molar heat of combustion of methane, considering that 22.0 kJ are released by the combustion of 64.00 g of methane.

\frac{-22.0kJ}{64.00g} \times \frac{16.04g}{mol} = -5.51 kJ/mol

Create a graphic representation that illustrates the steps from gene to protein. Label and describe each step.

Okay so,

1) Translation- show the RNA strand attatching to a DNA strand with the complimentary base pairs. introns are spliced

2) mRNA leaves the cell and joins with a ribosome

3) Transcription - tRNA (clover shaped) reads each codon (triplets) which each code for an amino acid. The stop codons on the end tell the tRNA that the chain is finished

4) the sequence forms the primary structure (all peptide bonds) which determines the shape of the secondary (hyrdogen and peptide) and hence determines the shape of the tertiary structure of a protein (ionic, hydrogen, disulfide bridges and hydrophibic interactions)


Hope this helps :)

Whats is a chemical change of a paper bag
DanielleElmas [232]
Combustion will cause a chemical change in paper.

This is because the carbon compounds are being oxidized into carbon dioxide and water vapour (or h2o, same thing).
