Answer:

Explanation:

Mitochondria are a part of eukaryotic cells. The main job of mitochondria is to perform cellular respiration. This means it takes in nutrients from the cell, breaks it down, and turns it into energy. This energy is then in turn used by the cell to carry out various functions.

A 453 g piece of glass at 25.7∘C is left outside on a sunny day. How much heat must the glass absorb from the sun in order to re

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Q = 5555.6J

Explanation:

Mass of glass piece, m = 453g

initial temperature = 25.7°C

temperature to be attained = 40.3°C

⇒change in temperature, Δt = 40.3 - 25.7 = 14.6°C

specific heat of glass, s = 0.840J/g°C

Heat absorbed, Q = msΔt

⇒Q = 453×0.840×14.6 = 5555.592J

⇒<u>Q = 5555.6J</u> (rounded to the nearest tenth)

Determine total H for bonds broken and formed, the overall change in H, and the final answer with units. Is it ENDOthermic or EX

Mrac [35]

E(Bonds broken) = 1371 kJ/mol reaction
E(Bonds formed) = 1852 kJ/mol reaction

ΔH = -481 kJ/mol.
The reaction is exothermic.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

2 H-H + O=O → 2 H-O-H

There are two moles of H-H bonds and one mole of O=O bonds in one mole of reactants. All of them will break in the reaction. That will absorb

E(Bonds broken) = 2 × 436 + 499 = 1371 kJ/mol reaction.
ΔH(Breaking bonds) = +1371 kJ/mol

Each mole of the reaction will form two moles of water molecules. Each mole of H₂O molecules have two moles O-H bonds. Two moles of the molecule will have four moles of O-H bonds. Forming all those bond will release

E(Bonds formed) = 2 × 2 × 463 = 1852 kJ/mol reaction.
ΔH(Forming bonds) = - 1852 kJ/mol

Heat of the reaction:

$\Delta H_{\text{rxn}} = \Delta H(\text{Breaking bonds}) + \Delta H(\text{Forming bonds})\\\phantom{ \Delta H_{\text{rxn}}} = +1371 + (-1852) \\\phantom{ \Delta H_{\text{rxn}}} = -481 \; \text{kJ} / \text{mol}$
