Answer: Water H2O

Explanation:

In cellular respiration process NAD+ is a most versatile electron acceptor and functions in several of the redox steps during break down of glucose.

Each NADH molecules formed during respiration represents stored energy that can be tapped to make ATP when the electrons complete their ''fall''down an energy gradient from NADH to oxygen.

Electrons removed from glucose are shuttle by NADH to the ''top'', higher-energy end of the electron transport chain. At the ''bottom'' lower energy end, O2 captures these electrons along with H+ forming water.

Therefore Hydrogen removed from NADH in the ETC is captured by O2 to form water

2H + 1/2O2 ------> H20

If the starting volume of a hot air balloon is 55,500 m3and the initial temperature is 21 °C, what is the temperature inside the
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

T₂ = 392 K

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial volume of the hot air balloon, V₁ = 55500 m³

Initial temperature, T₁ = 21°C = 294 K

Final volume, V₂ = 74000 m³

We need to find the final temperature inside the balloon. The relation between the temperature and volume is given by charles law i.e.

\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}

Where

T₂ is the final temperature

So,

\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}\\\\T_2=\dfrac{T_1V_2}{V_1}\\\\T_2=\dfrac{294\times 74000 }{55500 }\\\\T_2=392\ K

So, the new temperature is 392 K.

extremely hot.When a student went to open the car doo , he burned his finger. What two forms of energy were responsible for the
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

radiation and conduction

Explanation:

During a warm summer day, a car became extremely hot. When a student went to open the car door, he burned his fingers. What two forms of energy were responsible for the student burning his fingers?

Solution:

Heat is the transfer of energy from a warmer object to a cooler object. For heat transfer to occur, there have to be a difference in temperature between two objects.  

Heat can be transferred in three ways: by conduction, by convection, and by radiation.

Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy between bodies through direct contact. Convection is the transfer of thermal energy through the movement of heat in a liquid or gas. Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy through thermal emission by electromagnetic waves.

During a warm summer day, The sun makes the car to become hot through energy transfer from the sun to the car. When the student touch the car, there is heat transfer as a result of conduction.

3. Discuss the difference between molarity and molality, state the units of each, state the symbol for each, and give an example
dangina [55]

<span>Molality(m) or molal concentration is a measure of concentration and it refers to amount of substance in a specified amount of mass of the solvent. Used unit for molality is mol/kg which is also sometimes denoted as 1 molal. It is equal to the moles of solute (the substance being dissolved) divided by the kilograms of solvent (the substance used to dissolve).</span>

Molarity(M) or molar concentration is also a measure of concentration and represents the amount of substance per unit volume of solution(number of moles per litre of solution. Used unit for molarity is mol/L or M. A solution with a concentration of 1 mol/L is equivalent to 1 molar (1 M).

Molality is preferred when the temperature of the solution varies, because it does not depend on temperature, (neither number of moles of solute nor mass of solvent will be affected by changes of temperature), while molarity changes as temperature changes(volume of solution changes as temperature changes).

A 298 lb person must receive Heparin, determine the number of units given every hour (Heparin 8.0 units/kg per hour). Enter your
yarga [219]

Answer:

1,081.1 units of heparin should be given to 298 lb person.

Explanation:

We are given:

Weight of the person = 298 lb = 135.143 kg

Conversion factor used:

1 lb = 0.4535 kg

Number of unit of heparin to be given in an hour = 8.0 units/kg

Number of units given to the patient weighing 135.143 kg :

8.0 units/kg\times 135.143 kg=1,081.144 units\approx 1,081.1 units

1,081.1 units of heparin should be given to 298 lb person.

How does water help us live
SSSSS [86.1K]

Your body uses water in all its cells, organs, and tissues to help regulate its temperature and maintain other bodily functions. Because your body loses water through breathing, sweating, and digestion, it's important to re-hydrate by drinking fluids and eating foods that contain water.
