A researcher wants to determine if a unicellular organism he discovered is an autotroph or a heterotroph. He radioactively label

s the carbon in CO2 and C6H12O6, and exposes one culture of his organism to the labeled CO2 and another culture to the labeled C6H12O6. What would happen if his organism is an autotroph?
A. Labeled carbon would be seen in the carbohydrates of organisms exposed to CO2.
B. Labeled carbon would be seen in the carbohydrates of organisms exposed to C6H12O6.
C. Labeled carbon would not be seen in the carbohydrates of either culture.
D. Labeled carbon would be seen in carbohydrates of both cultures.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Autotrophs utilize the energy from  sunlight to reduce carbon dioxide to carbohydrates (glucose). The energy from the sunlight is used to split water into H+ and O2- and the H+ used in the reduction process. The labeled carbon in the carbon dioxide will, therefore, be incorporated by the autotrophs in the carbohydrates made in photosynthesis.

How many grams of silver chromate will precipitate when 150. mL of 0.500 M silver nitrate are added to 100. mL of 0.400 M potass
sergiy2304 [10]

The amount of silver chromate that precipitates after addition of solutions is 12.44 g.

Number of moles:

The number of moles is the product of molarity of the solution and its volume. The formula is expressed as:

Moles = Molarity x Volume

Calculations:

Step 1:

The molecular formula of silver nitrate is AgNO3. The number of moles of silver nitrate is calculated as:

Moles of AgNO3 = 0.500 M x (150/1000) L

= 0.075 mol

Step 2:

The molecular formula potassium chromate is K2CrO4. The number of moles of potassium chromate is calculated as:

Moles of K2CrO4 = 0.400 M x (100/1000) L

= 0.04 mol

Step 3:

The balanced chemical reaction between AgNO3 and K2CrO4 is:

2AgNO3 + K2CrO4 -----> Ag2CrO4 + 2KNO3

The required number of moles of K2CrO4 = 0.075 mol/2 = 0.0375 mol

The given number of moles of K2CrO4 (0.04 mol) is more than the required number of moles (0.0375 mol). Therefore, AgNO3 is the limiting reagent.

Step 4:

According to the reaction, the molar ratio between AgNO3 and Ag2CrO4 is 2:1. Hence, the number of moles of Ag2CrO4 formed is 0.0375 mol.

The molar mass of Ag2CrO4 is 331.74 g/mol.

The mass of Ag2CrO4 is calculated as:

Mass = 0.0375 mol x 331.74 g/mol

= 12.44 g
