The combustion of palmitic acid in a bomb calorimeter yields energy in the form of heat released upon oxidation. From a thermody

namic perspective and with respect to the calorimeter experiment, what would you expect the combustion of the same amount of palmitic acid in our body to yield?a. less energyb. more energyc. the same amount of energyd. The calorimeter experiment is irrelevant to the combustion of palmitic acid in the human body.

Answer:

"The same amount of energy" is the combustion of the same amount of palmitic acid in our body to yield.

Explanation:

A bomb calorimeter is an apparatus used to measure the amount of heat out or fascinated by a chemical reaction. This apparatus is airtight and has thermal insulation, which means that the organization doesn't alteration heat with the environments. So, by the variance of the temperature measured on the system (ΔT), the mass of a solution (m) and the specific heat of water (c) it's likely to compute the heat in a reaction that happens in aqueous solution, by the equation below:

                                           Q = m \times c\times \delta T

The heat, or the energy, of the response doesn't depend on where the response is happening, so the sum of energy measured on the bomb calorimeter will be the same in our body.

A student reacts 5.0 g of sodium with 10.0 g of chlorine and collect 5.24 g of sodium chloride. What is the percent yield of thi
Ede4ka [16]

Answer: The percent yield of this combination reaction is 41.3 %

Explanation : Given,

Mass of Na = 5.0 g

Mass of Cl_2 = 10.0 g

Molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol

Molar mass of Cl_2 = 71 g/mol

First we have to calculate the moles of Na and Cl_2.

\text{Moles of }Na=\frac{\text{Given mass }Na}{\text{Molar mass }Na}

\text{Moles of }Na=\frac{5.0g}{23g/mol}=0.217mol

and,

\text{Moles of }Cl_2=\frac{\text{Given mass }Cl_2}{\text{Molar mass }Cl_2}

\text{Moles of }Cl_2=\frac{10.0g}{71g/mol}=0.141mol

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical equation will be:

2Na+Cl_2\rightarrow 2NaCl

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 mole of Na react with 1 mole of Cl_2

So, 0.217 moles of Na react with \frac{0.217}{2}=0.108 moles of Cl_2

From this we conclude that, Cl_2 is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and Na is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of NaCl

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 mole of Na react to give 2 mole of NaCl

So, 0.217 mole of HCl react to give 0.217 mole of NaCl

Now we have to calculate the mass of NaCl

\text{ Mass of }NaCl=\text{ Moles of }NaCl\times \text{ Molar mass of }NaCl

Molar mass of NaCl = 58.5 g/mole

\text{ Mass of }NaCl=(0.217moles)\times (58.5g/mole)=12.7g

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of this reaction.

Percent yield = \frac{\text{Actual yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

Actual yield = 5.24 g

Theoretical yield = 12.7 g

Percent yield = \frac{5.24g}{12.7g}\times 100

Percent yield = 41.3 %

Therefore, the percent yield of this combination reaction is 41.3 %

What is the direction of the polarity of the indicated bond in h3c−oh marked by δ+ and δ−?
Sedbober [7]

Answer:- The direction of the polarity of the indicated bond is from carbon to oxygen.

Explanations:-  There are two types of covalent compounds, polar and non polar. If the bond is between two same atoms for example, H-H, Cl-Cl etc then the bond is non polar. If the bond is between two different atoms then the bond would be polar. The direction of the polarity is from loss electron negative atom to more electron negative atom.

Oxygen is more electron negative than carbon. So, being more electron negative, the bonding electrons are more towards oxygen and it cases partial negative charge on oxygen and partial positive charge on carbon. The direction of the polarity is from less electron negative carbon to more electron negative oxygen.

It is shown in the diagram below:

What is the new pressure of 150 mL of a gas that is compressed to 50 mL when the original pressure was 2.0 atm and the temperatu
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

1) 6.0 atm.

2) 2.066 atm.

Explanation:

  • From the general law of ideal gases:

<em>PV = nRT.</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas.

V is the volume of the container.

n is the no. of moles of the gas.

R is the general gas constant.

T is the temperature of the gas (K).

<em>1) What is the new pressure of 150 mL of a gas that is compressed to 50 mL when the original pressure was 2.0 atm and the temperature is held constant?</em>

  • At constant T and at two different (P, and V):

<em>P₁V₁ = P₂V₂.</em>

P₁ = 2.0 atm, V₁ = 150.0 mL.

P₂ = ??? atm, V₂ = 50.0 mL.

<em>∴ P₂ = P₁V₁/V₂</em> = (2.0 atm)(150.0 mL)/(50.0 mL) = <em>6.0 atm.</em>

<em>2. A sample of a gas in a rigid container at 30.0°C and 2.00 atm has its temperature increased to 40.0°C. What will be the new pressure?</em>

<em></em>

  • Since the container is rigid, so it has constant V.
  • At constant V and at two different (P, and T):

<em>P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂.</em>

P₁ = 2.0 atm, T₁ = 30.0°C + 273 = 303 K.

P₂ = ??? atm, T₂ = 40.0°C + 273 = 313 K.

<em>∴ P₂ = P₁T₂/T₁ </em>= (2.0 atm)(313.0 K)/(303.0 K) =<em> 2.066 atm.</em>

Help pls again HAHAHAH
Alenkasestr [34]

<u><em>I believe the answer you are looking for is position 4 </em></u>, because the northern face of the hemisphere is facing away from the sun not getting

to much heat nor daylight therefore its cold making it winter fully in option 4.

Just a tip option 3 looks like its facing back but half of it is still shown to the sun.
