What is the mass defect of lithium? Assume the following:

Chemistry
1 answer:
Bumek [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Δm = 3.0684

Explanation:

Data Given:

Atomic number of lithium = 3

Atomic mass of lithium = 7.0144 amu

Mass of 1 proton = 1.0073 amu

Mass of 1 neutron = 1.0087 amu

Solution:

Mass Defect:

Mass defect is the difference of mass number of an atom and its atomic number.

Formula used

Δm = [Z (mass of proton + mass of nutron)  + ( A − Z ) mass of nutron] − m of atom

where:

Δm = mass defect (amu)

Z = atomic number

A = mass number

Put values in formula

Δm = [3 ( 1.0073 amu + 1.0087 amu)  + ( 7 − 3 ) 1.0087 ] − 7.0144

Δm = [3 (2.016)  + (4) 1.0087 ] − 7.0144

Δm = [(6.048)  + (4.0348) ] − 7.0144

Δm = 10.0828 − 7.0144

Δm = 3.0684

The role of pigments both in capturing light energy and in converting it to the chemical energy of ATP and NADPH.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

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)..

What is the mass of and object with a volume of 100 cm3 and a density of 10 g/cm3?
nadezda [96]

Answer:

1000 g

Explanation:

d = m/v

We are given d: 10g/cm3

and v: 100cm3

Plug them into the equation to get 10 = m/100

Then, cross multiply 10x100 to get mass which is: 1000g
