An irregular lump of an unknown metal has a measured density of 5.50 g/mL. The metal is heated to a temperature of 153 °C and pl

aced in a graduated cylinder filled with 25.0 mL of water at 25.0 °C. After the system has reached thermal equilibrium, the volume in the cylinder is read at 30.0 mL, and the temperature is recorded as 41.0 °C. What is the specific heat of the unknown metal sample? Assume no heat is lost to the surroundings.

Answer: 0.543J/g^0C

Explanation:

Volume of metal = volume of water displaced = (30.0 - 25.0) ml = 5.0 ml

Density of metal = 5.50 g/ml

Mass of metal =density\times volume =5.50\times 5.0=27.5g

Volume of water = 25.0 ml

Density of metal = 1.0 g/ml

Mass of metal =density\times volume =1.0\times 25.0=25.0g

heat_{absorbed}=heat_{released}

As we know that,  

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})

-[m_1\times c_1\times (T_{final}-T_1)]=[m_2\times c_2\times (T_{final}-T_2)]         .................(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

m_1 = mass of metal = 27.5 g

m_2 = mass of water = 25.0 g

T_{final} = final temperature = ?41.0^0C

T_1 = temperature of metal = 153^oC

T_2 = temperature of water = 25.0^oC

c_1 = specific heat of lead = ?

c_2 = specific heat of water= 4.184J/g^0C

Now put all the given values in equation (1), we get

27.5g\times c_1\times (41.0-153)^0C=[25.0g\times 4.814J/g^0C\times (41.0-25.0)^0C]

c_1=0.543J/g^0C

Thus the specific heat of the unknown metal sample is 0.543J/g^0C

Which of the following is NOT a possible end-product of a fermentation process?- glucose- carbon dioxide- lactic acid- ethanol
MArishka [77]

Answer:

glucose

Explanation:

There are two types of respiration:

1. Aerobic respiration  

2. Anaerobic respiration

Aerobic respiration:

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen to yield large amount of energy. Water and carbon dioxide are also produced as a byproduct.

Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP

Anaerobic Respiration:

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the absence of oxygen and produce small amount of energy. Alcohol or lactic acid and carbon dioxide are also produced as byproducts.  

Glucose→ lactic acid/alcohol + 2ATP + carbon dioxide

This process use respiratory electron transport chain as electron acceptor instead of oxygen. It is mostly occur in prokaryotes. Its main advantage is that it produce energy (ATP) very quickly as compared to aerobic respiration.  

Steps involve in anaerobic respiration are:

Glycolysis:

Glycolysis is the first step of both aerobic and anaerobic respiration. It involve the breakdown of one glucose molecule into pyruvate and 2ATP.

Fermentation:

The second step of anaerobic respiration is fermentation. It involve the fermentation of pyruvate into lactic acid or alcohol depending upon the organism in which it is taking place. There is no ATP produced in this step, however carbon dioxide is released.
