What happens in cellular respiration?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alecsey [184]3 years ago
7 0
Cellular respiration is the process of oxidizing food molecules, like glucose, to carbon dioxide and water. The energy released is trapped in the form of ATP for use by all the energy-consuming activities of the cell. The process occurs in two phases: glycolysis, the breakdown of glucose to pyruvic acid.

If a solution containing 51.429 g of mercury(ii) perchlorate is allowed to react completely with a solution containing 16.642 g
OLga [1]
Hg(No3)2  +NaSO4   --->2NaNO3  +  HgSO4(s)
calculate  the moles  of   each  reactant
moles=mass/molar  mass

moles of  Hg(NO3)2=  51.429g/  324.6  g/mol(molar  mass  of  Hg(NO3)2)=0.158  moles

moles Na2SO4  16.642g/142g/mol=  0.117  moles  of  Na2SO4

Na2SO4  is  the  limiting  reagent in  the   equation   and  by  use  mole  ratio  Na2So4  to  HgSO4  is  1:1   therefore  the  moles  of  HgSO4  =0.117  moles

mass  of  HgSO4=moles  x  molar   mass  of  HgSo4=  0.117 g x  303.6g/mol=  35.5212  grams

Give the effect on the melting point of the presence of a cis double bond in a fatty acid.
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

The cis double bond present in unsaturated fatty acids acids results in lower melting point when compared to saturated fatty acids of the same chain length.

Explanation:

Melting point of a fatty acids are affected by the length and degree of unsaturation of the hydrocarbon chain.

At room temperature, saturated fatty acids with hydrocarbon chain lengths between 12-24 are waxy solids whereas unsaturated atty acids of the same chain length are liquids. This is due to the nature of the packing of the fatty acid molecules in the saturated and unsaturated compounds.

In the saturated compounds, the molecules are tightly packed side by side with minimal steric hindrance and maximal van der Waals forces of attraction between molecules. However, in unsaturated fatty acids, the cis double bond introduces a bend or kink in the molecules which then interferes with the tight packing of the molecules and reducing interaction between molecules. Therefore, less energy is required to cause a disorder in the arrangement of unsaturated fatty acids, leading to a lowering of melting point.

The component which dissolves in a solution is called the?
VladimirAG [237]

The correct answer is Solute

Explanation:

In chemistry, a solution refers to a homogenous mixture of two substances that occurs through dissolution, this means once they are mixed the substances form a uniform new substance and cannot be easily separated. Additionally, in chemistry, the substances involved in a solution are either classified as solutes if they are the substances that dissolve to form a solution or as solvents in the case of substances in which the solute dissolves in. For example, if you mix salt and water, the salt acts as the solute while the water is the solvent. Thus, the component which dissolves in a solution is called the solute.
