when obtaining energy, why mushrooms are more like elephants eating and not like dandelions absorbing sunlight.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Julli [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Because they lack chlorophyll (a green pigment in plants that helps them trap sunlight, used to manufacture their food through photosynthesis)

Explanation:

Mushrooms are heterotrophs. They are not plants or autotrophs. Mushrooms, just like every living thing that exists need energy in order to live. Only plants, or autotrophs, can directly use energy from the sun (the ultimate energy) to make food. Those organisms that cannot harness the sun's energy are known as heterotrophs. Mushrooms are fungi (belong to kingdom Fungi) and are heterotrophs because they decompose and consume nutrients from the soil. They are not green so they cannot photosynthesis due to lack of chlorophyll.

The density of the sample : 0.827 g/L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

In general, the gas equation can be written  

\large {\boxed {\bold {PV = nRT}}}

where  

P = pressure, atm , N/m²

V = volume, liter  

n = number of moles  

R = gas constant = 0.082 l.atm / mol K (P= atm, v= liter),or 8,314 J/mol K (P=Pa or N/m2, v= m³)

T = temperature, Kelvin  

n= 1 mol

MW Neon = 20,1797 g/mol

mass of Neon :

\tt mass=mol\times MW\\\\mass=1\times 20,1797 =20.1797~g

The density of the sample :

\tt \rho=\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\\rho=\dfrac{20,1797}{24.4}=0.827~g/L

or We can use the ideal gas formula ta find density :

\tt \rho=\dfrac{P\times MW}{RT}\\\\\rho=\dfrac{1\times 20.1797}{0.082\times 298}\\\\\rho=0.826~g/L

A container of oxygen gas is at STP. If this sample is put into an oven at 280 C, what would its pressure be, in atmospheres?
Leni [432]

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This include the following:

Initial pressure (P1) = 1atm

Initial temperature (T1) = 0°C = 0°C + 273 = 273K

Final temperature (T2) = 280°C = 280°C + 273 = 553K

Final pressure (P2) =...?

Step 2:

Determination of the new pressure of the gas.

Since the volume of the gas is constant, the following equation:

P1/T1 = P2/T2

will be used to obtain the pressure. This is illustrated below:

P1/T1 = P2/T2

1/273 = P2 / 553

Cross multiply

273x P2 = 553

Divide both side by 273

P2 = 553/273

P2 = 2.03atm

Therefore, the new pressure of the gas will be 2.03atm
