Answer:
Explanation:
Combustion releases energy in a single step in the form of light and heat. Whereas in respiration, energy is released in steps and is stored in the form of ATP.
The Mass of oxygen in isolated sample is 8.6 g
<h3>What is the
Law of Constant composition?</h3>
The law of constant composition states that pure samples of the same compound contain the same element in the same ratio by mass irrespective of the source from which the compound is obtained.
Considering the given ascorbic acid samples:
Laboratory sample contains 1.50 gg of carbon and 2.00 gg of oxygen
mass ratio of oxygen to carbon is 2 : 1.5
Isolated sample will contain 2/1.5 * 6.45 g of oxygen.
Mass of oxygen in isolated sample = 8.6 g
In conclusion, the mass of oxygen is determined from the mass ratio of oxygen and carbon in the compound.

Note that the complete question is given below:
A sample of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is synthesized in the laboratory. It contains 1.50 g of carbon and 2.00 g of oxygen. Another sample of ascorbic acid isolated from citrus fruits contains 6.45 gg of carbon. According to the law of constant composition, how many grams of oxygen does this isolated sample contain?
Express the answer in grams to three significant figures.
8.47 g
The mass of the liquid is 280 g.
Mass = 200 mL × (1.4 g/1 mL) = 280 g
464 g radioisotope was present when the sample was put in storage
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Sample waste of Co-60 = 14.5 g
26.5 years in storage
Required
Initial sample
Solution
General formulas used in decay:

t = duration of decay
t 1/2 = half-life
N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms
Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time
Half-life of Co-60 = 5.3 years
Input the value :
