Name two compounds with more exothermic lattice energies than scandium oxide and justify your choice.
N76 [4]

Answer:

1 . Al_2O_3

2. TiO_2

Explanation:

The more stable the ionic compound, the more is it lattice energy.

  • The more the charge on the cation and the anion, the greater is the lattice energy.
  • The less the size of the cation and the anion, the greater is the lattice energy.

Scandium oxide (Sc_2O_3) is an oxide in which Sc^{3+} behaves as cation and O^{2-} behaves as anion.

The compounds which has higher lattice energy than scandium oxide are:

1 . Al_2O_3

This is because the charge are same on the cation and the anion as in the case of the Scandium oxide but the size of the cation Al^{3+} is smaller than Sc^{3+}. Thus, this corresponds to higher lattice energy.

2. TiO_2

This is because the charge on the cation Ti^{4+} is greater than that of Sc^{3+} and also the size of the cation Ti^{4+} is smaller than Sc^{3+}. Thus, this corresponds to higher lattice energy.

[Ca2+] within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is 10-3M. Cytosolic [Ca2+] is 10-7M. Lysosomes in mammalian cells have an internal
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

B. Ca2+ import into the ER because it has the steeper concentration gradient

Explanation:

ΔGt =  RT㏑(C₂/C₁)

where ΔGt is the free energy change for transport; R = 8.315 J/mol; T = 298 K; C₂/C₁ is ratio of concentrations inside and outside each organelle.

For Ca²⁺ import

ΔGt = 8.315 J/mol * 298 K * ㏑(10⁻³/10⁻⁷)

ΔGt= 3.42 kJ/mol

For H⁺ import

ΔGt = 8.315 J/mol * 298 K * ㏑ (10⁻⁴/10⁻⁷)

ΔGt = 2.73 kJ/mol

From the above values, ΔGt is greater for Ca²⁺ import because it has a steeper concentration gradient

Compare and contrast conduction, convection, and<br> radiation as part of heat energy
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

In conduction, heat transfer takes place between objects by direct contact. In convection, the heat transfer takes within the fluid. In radiation, heat transfer occurs through electromagnetic waves without involving particles. The heat transfer takes place due to the difference in temperature.
