2. How are these nutrients used by your body?

1 answer:

7 0

The nutrients that the body breaks down into basic units are carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. From carbohydrates comes glucose, your body's -- especially the brain's -- primary form of fuel; from fats we get glycerol and fatty acids, many of which are essential ingredients in hormones and the protective sheath in our brain that covers communicating neurons; and from proteins we get amino acids, which are the building blocks to lots of structures, including our blood, muscle, skin, organs, antibodies, hair, and fingernails.

Each of these nutrients travels down a different pathway, but all can eventually fuel the body's production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is essentially our bodies' ultimate energy currency.

An organic chemist measures the temperature T of a solution in a reaction flask. Here is the result. T = 149.206 °C Convert T to

jolli1 [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The temperature of the solution in Kelvins is 422.356 K

<u>Explanation:</u>

Temperature is defined as the measure of coldness or hotness of a body. It also determines the average kinetic energy of the particles in a body.

This term is expressed in degree Celsius, degree Fahrenheit and Kelvins. All these units are interchangeable.

The S.I unit of temperature is Kelvins.

We are given:

Temperature of a solution = $149.206^oC$

Conversion used to convert degree Celsius and Kelvins is:

$T(K)=[273.15+T(^oC)]$

$T(K)=273.15+149.206\\T(K)=422.356K$

Hence, the temperature of the solution in Kelvins is 422.356 K

9. During an experiment the students prepared three mixtures A)Starch in water B) Sodium chloride solution C) Tincture of Iodine

il63 [147K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Tyndall effect refers to the scattering of light in a solution. Tyndall effect occurs when the size of particles in the solution exceeds 1 nm in diameter. Such solutions are actually called false solutions.

In tincture of iodine, the size of particles in solution is less than 1 nm in diameter hence the solution does not exhibit Tyndall effect. Hence, tincture of iodine is a true solution.

Therefore, if the size of particles in solution exceeded 1nm in diameter, Tyndall effect is observed.

Aryan want to deposit silver on an iron spoon using silver nitrate as electrolyte. Which terminal of the battery he should conne

34kurt

Silver from the anode gets dissolved to reach the cathode, where the spoon will be plated.

<h3>What is electroplating?</h3>

Electroplating is a way of electrolysis, where a thin layer of metal is used to plate a determined object. It is a kinda process to purify a material you want.

The anode contains the metal you want to plate with, in this case, the Ag.

The anode contains the half-reaction of oxidation so:

Ag(s) → Ag ⁺ (aq) + e⁻

In the cathode, you have the spoon, which it takes place the half-reaction of reduction:

Ag ⁺ (aq) + e⁻ → Ag(s)

The electrolytic cell, where the redox reaction takes place, must be filled with a AgNO₃ solution.

Silver from the anode gets dissolved to reach the cathode, where the spoon will be plated.
