Expansion

Explanation:

Expansion is the change is size of a body with increasing temperature and tension.

Bridges are built of iron. Iron thermally expands in the presence of increased temperature during the day. The length of the iron will increase by simple fractions. At night, when temperature drops, the bar returns back to its initial position.

  • The allowance for expansion of the metal is made in order to prevent tension within the structure.
  • Not doing this will cause the material to break since there is no free space for the bar to change shape.

Nitric oxide (NO) is a gaseous molecule with lipid solu- bility similar to that of O2 and CO2. Endothelial cells lining arteries
svp [43]

Answer:

NO passively diffuses down its concentration gradient through the endothelial cell plasma membrane out of the cell and then passiveley diffuses through the plasma membrane into the cytoplasm of the smooth muscle cell, where it acts to decrease contraction.

Explanation:

Hello,

At first, we must consider that O_2 and CO_2, NO passively diffuses through membranes. As it is produced by an enzyme and accumulates in the endothelial cell cytosol, NO passively diffuses down its concentration gradient through the endothelial cell plasma membrane out of the cell and then passiveley diffuses through the plasma membrane into the cytoplasm of the smooth muscle cell, where it acts to decrease contraction.

Best regards

An object has a mass of 45.0 g and a volume of 4.0 ml. what is its density?
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>11.25 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

Density =  \frac{mass}{volume}

From the question

mass = 45 g

volume = 4 mL

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the density

We have

Density =  \frac{45}{4}

We have the final answer as

<h3>11.25 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

The reaction nacl(s) → nacl(aq) is performed in a coffee cup calorimeter, using 100 ml of h2o(l) and 5.00g of nacl. if the tempe
MrRissso [65]

Since the density of water is 1 g /mL, hence there is 100 g of H2O. So total mass is:

m = 100 g + 5 g = 105 g

 

=> The heat of reaction can be calculated using the formula:

δhrxn = m C ΔT

where m is mass, C is heap capacity and ΔT is change in temperature = negative since there is a decrease

 

δhrxn = 105 g * 4.18 J/g°C * (-2.30°C)

δhrxn = -1,009.47 J

 

=> However this is still in units of J, so calculate the number of moles of NaCl.

 

moles NaCl = 5 g / (58.44 g / mol)

moles NaCl = 0.0856 mol

 

=> So the heat of reaction per mole is:

δhrxn = -1,009.47 J / 0.0856 mol

δhrxn = -11,798.69 J/mol = -11.8 kJ/mol
