Answer:

5927.3488 calorie/g

Explanation:

For peanut butter:

Mass = 15 g

Initial temperature = 22.4 °C

Final temperature = 25.5 °C

Specific heat of calorimeter, C = 120 kJ/°C

Considering

Q=C\times (T_f-T_i)

Q=120\ kJ/^0C\times (25.5-22.4)\ ^0C

Q=372\ kJ

Also,

1 kJ = 239.006 calories

So, Heat = 372*239.006 calories = 88910.232 calories

15 g of the peanut butter gives 88910.232 calories

<u>So, the food caloric content of peanut butter = 88910.232 calories/ 15 g = 5927.3488 calorie/g</u>

The molar mass of an unknown gas was measured by an effusion experiment. It was found that it took 60 s for the gas to effuse, w
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The molar mass of the gas is 44 g/mol

Explanation:

It is possible to solve this problem using Graham's law that says: Rates of effusion are inversely dependent on the square of the mass of each gas. That is:

\frac{r_1}{r_2} =\frac{\sqrt{M_2} }{\sqrt{M_1} }

If rate of effusion of nitrogen is Xdistance / 48s and for the unknown gas is X distance / 60s and mass of nitrogen gas is 28g/mol (N₂):

\frac{X/48s}{X/60s} =\frac{\sqrt{M_2} }{\sqrt{28g/mol} }

6,61 = √M₂

44g/mol = M₂

<em>The molar mass of the gas is 44 g/mol</em>

How many degrees of unsaturation are lost or gained in the base-induced transformation from mito-ph to its photoactive ring-open
Fudgin [204]

Unsaturation (IHD) 2 hydrogen Needed

IHD = [(2n+2) -H]/2
(H: X=1, N=-1, O= zero)

Unsaturation:
Double bonds = 1
Rings = 1
Triple Bonds = 2

The degrees of unsaturation in a molecule are additive — a molecule with one double bond has one degree of unsaturation, a molecule with two double bonds has two degrees of unsaturation, and so forth.
