Answer:
a. V = 1000 mL
b. Denisty = 0.022 g/mL
Explanation:
a.
First we need to convert the volume of the Osmium into mL. For that purpose we are given the conversion unit as:
1 mL = 0.1 cL
Hence, the given volume of Osmium will be:
V = Volume of Osmium = 100 cL = (100 cL)(1 mL/0.1 cL) = 1000 mL
<u>V = 1000 mL</u>
b.
The density of Osmium is given by the following formula:
Density = mass/Volume
Denisty = 22 g/1000 mL
<u>Denisty = 0.022 g/mL</u>
Answer:
The explanation of the processes in which pigments are involved (capturing light and forming ATP and NADPH) is given in the following paragraphs)
Explanation:
Pigments are molecules with the capacity of absorbing light. Each pigment captures light of a specific wavelength. Plants contain different types of pigments like chlorophylls, xanthophylls, carotenoids, and others.
Chloroplasts (organelles present in cells of plants), contain pigmants that absorb solar radiation, triggering a series of reactions collectively known as photosynthesis. When light incides on a pigment, an electron of this molecules is excitated, goes into another level of energy and starts to pass through a series of carrier molecules to finally to a final aceptor of electrons. During this transport, part of the energy contained in the electron is used to generates a hydrogen gradient that provides energy. As a result of these processes, a molecule that is called NADP+ accepts two electrons and an hydrogen to form NADPH, while another molecule known as ADP captures an atom of phosphorous and gives rise to ATP (through the action of a protein called ATP sintase)..
