Answer:

a) 65.74 ± 0.01

b) 60.009 ± 0.001

c) 66 ± 1

d) 65.750 ± 0.001

Explanation:

When reporting results, scientist usually specify a range of values that they expect this "true value" to fall within. The most common way to show this range of values is: measurement = best estimate ± uncertainty

Uncertainties are almost always quoted to one significant digit (example: ±0.05 s).

Wrong: 34.3 cm ± 4.3 cm

Correct: 34 cm ± 4 cm

Always round the experimental measurement or result to the same decimal place as the uncertainty.

Wrong: 1.237 s ± 0.1 s

Correct: 1.2 s ± 0.1 s

Therefore for to answer the question:

a) 65.74 ± 0.01

b) 60.009 ± 0.001

c) 66 ± 1

d) 65.750 ± 0.001

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Why do organisms eat food? Be sure to explain your answer.

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

Organisms need to take food to get energy and perform life processes. A living organism undergoes many life processes like nutrition, respiration, digestion, transportation, excretion, circulation of blood, and reproduction. To perform all these life processes the organism needs energy and nutrients.

Glucose, a common carbohydrate, is a molecule that contains the elements carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Complete combustion of a

lesya [120]

The formation of carbondioxide is given by equation as

C + O2 ----> CO2(g)

As per balanced equation one mole of carbondioxide is obtained from one mole of carbon

if 44 g of CO2 is formed it means it contains 12 g of carbon

if 1g of CO2 is formed it means it contains 12/44 g of carbon

if 0.528g of CO2 is formed it means it contains = 12 X 0.528 / 44 g of carbon

= 0.144g of carbon

Similarly for water

H2 + 0.5O2 ---> H2O

so one mole of water is obtained from one mole of H2

if 18g of water is formed it means 2g H2 is present

if 1g of water is formed it means 2/18 g of H2 is present

if 0.216g of water if formed it means 2 X 0.216 / 18g of H2 is present = 0.024g of Hydrogen

In glucose we have Carbon , Hydrogen and oxygen

As given the total mass of sample = 0.360g

Mass of carbon = 0.144 , moles of carbon = 0.144 / 12 = 0.012

Mass of hydrogen = 0.024 , moles of hydrogen = 0.024 /1 = 0.024

mass of oxygen = 0.360 - (0.144+0.024) = 0.192

Moles of oxygen = 0.192 / 16 = 0.012

So mole ratio of C : H : O = 0.012 : 0.024 : 0.012 = 1:2:1

Assume that a daily diet of 2000 calories (i.e. 8.37 x 106 J) is converted completely to body heat.

slava [35]

Answer:

(a) the mass of the water is 3704 g

(b) the mass of the water is 199, 285.7 g

Explanation:

Given;

Quantity of heat, H= 8.37 x 10⁶ J

Part (a) mass of water (as sweat) need to evaporate to cool that person off

Latent heat of vaporization of water, Lvap. = 2.26 x 10⁶ J/kg

H = m x Lvap.

$m = \frac{H}{L._{vap}} =\frac{8.37 * 10^6.J}{2.26*10^6\ \frac{J}{kg}} = 3.704 \ kg$

mass in gram ⇒ 3.704 kg x 1000g = 3704 g

Part (b) quantity of water raised from 25.0 °C to 35.0 °C by 8.37 x 10⁶ J

specific heat capacity of water, C, 4200 J/kg.°C

H = mcΔθ

where;

Δθ is the change in temperature = 35 - 25 = 10°C

$m =\frac{H}{c* \delta \theta} = \frac{8.37 *10^6}{4200*10} = 199.2857 kg$

mass in gram ⇒ 199.2857 kg x 1000 g = 199285.7 g
