When a sample of rust was mixed with acid, the rust changed into two simpler substances: W and Z. The substances W and Z could n
julia-pushkina [17]

here can be a number of chemical processes by which a compounds can be broken down into simpler substances. The most common and wide-spread of such processes is Catabolism. Along with anabolism, catabolism make up the metabolism process for living organisms. In catabolism, complex chemical molecules (such as proteins, polysaccharides, etc.) are broken down into simpler molecules (such as amino acids, monosaccharides, etc.). This is often accompanied by release of energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) molecules and intermediate metabolites (which can be used by the organism in the anabolic processes). The energy thus generated is used for operation and maintenance of cells (and consequently, the body).  

Other processes that break down chemical substances into simpler substances, include depolymerization, decomposition, etc.

Hope this helps.

<span>Let's assume that the oxygen gas has ideal gas behavior. 
Then we can use ideal gas formula,
      PV = nRT</span>


Where, P is the pressure of the gas (Pa), V is the volume of the gas (m³), n is the number of moles of gas (mol), R is the universal gas constant ( 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹) and T is temperature in Kelvin.

<span>
P = 2.2 atm = 222915 Pa
V = 21 L = 21 x 10</span>⁻³ m³

n = ?

R = 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹

How much heat is required to raise the temperature of 81.0 g of water from its melting point to its boiling point?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Specific heat of water = 33.89 KJ

Explanation:

Given:

mass of water = 81 gram

Initial temperature = 0°C

Final temperature = 100°C

Specific heat of water = 4.184

Find:

Required heat Q

Computation:

Q = Mass x Specific heat of water x (Final temperature - Initial temperature)

Q = (81)(4.184)(100-0)

Q = 33,890.4

Specific heat of water = 33.89 KJ
