Answer:

cellular respiration

Explanation:

All exergonic processes produced in the cell, through which substances oxidize and chemical energy is released, are grouped under the name of cellular respiration, but to break down an organic molecule the cells employ, mainly dehydrogenations that can be carried carried out in the presence or absence of atmospheric O2 oxygen. There are therefore two types of breathing: aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration. The latter also called fermentation.

Aerobic respiration (oxidative phosphorylation)

- Use molecular O2.

- It degrades glucose to CO2 and H2O

- Exergonic

- Recovers about 50% of chemical energy

- Present in most organisms.

- It uses enzymes located in the mitochondria.

Answer:

d. Cl2

sorry if I'm wrong

Cl2, as shown in the picture should have electrons in both the atoms but, in the question, the electrons are only in one of the atoms.

hope it helps :)

A 118-ml flask is evacuated and found to have a mass of 97.129 g. when the flask is filled with 768 torr of helium gas at 35 ?c,

Inessa05 [86]

The full question asks to decide whether the gas was a specific gas. That part is missing in your question. You need to decide whether the gas in the flask is pure helium.

To decide it you can find the molar mass of the gas in the flask, using the ideal gas equation pV = nRT, and then compare with the molar mass of the He.

From pV = nRT you can find n, after that using the mass of gass in the flask you use MM = mass/moles.

1) From pV = nRT, n = pV / RT

Data:
V = 118 ml = 0.118 liter
R = 0.082 atm*liter/mol*K
p = 768 torr * 1 atm / 760 torr = 1.0105 atm
T = 35 + 273.15 = 308.15 K

n = 1.015 atm * 0.118 liter / [ 0.082 atm*liter/K*mol * 308.15K] =0.00472 mol

mass of gas = mass of the fask with the gas - mass of the flasl evacuated = 97.171 g - 97.129 g = 0.042

=> MM = mass/n = 0.042 / 0.00472 = 8.90 g/mol

Now from a periodic table or a table you get that the molar mass of He is 4g/mol

So the numbers say that this gas is not pure helium , because its molar mass is more than double of the molar mass of helium gas.

Yesterday we combined Hydrochloric Acid HCl with Sodium Hydroxide NaOH in a violent reaction that resulted in water H2O and comm

IceJOKER [234]

Reaction:
HCl + NaOH ---> NaCl + H2O

1 mole of HCl = 36,5 g
1 mole of NaOH = 40g

so, according to the reaction:
1 mol HCl = 1 mol NaOH
so, we need > 36,5 g HCl (hydrochloric acid)

answer: 36,5 g HCl (hydrochloric acid)
 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
next question.

1 mole of NaCl = 58,5 g
1 mole of H2O = 18g

so, according to the reaction:
1 mole of HCl (36,5 g) ----------------- - 1 mole of NaCl (58,5 g)
(the same for NaOH)
i
1 mole of HCl (36,5 g) ------------------ 1 mole of H2O (18 g)
(the same for NaOH)

so, this reaction is stechiometric

answer: 58,5 g NaCl i 18g H2O

Explain whether nitrogen atoms will form bonds with other atoms.

Stells [14]

Nitrogen can make bonds with other atoms.. Typically though it only makes 3 bonds, so it fills its octet.
