A researcher discovers a new bacterium that lives on the seafloor near hydrothermal vents. This organism reduces CO2 to form C6H

12O6 (glucose), and also derives energy from H2 (by oxidation). This bacterium is a:
A. photoautotroph.
B. chemoheterotroph.
C. chemoautotroph.
D. photoheterotroph.

Answer:

C. Chemoautotroph

Explanation:

The new bacterium are able to create their own energy and biological materials  (glucose) from inorganic chemicals (CO2 and H2), therefore they are called chemoautotroph.

How much energy must be removed from a 94.4 g sample of benzene (molar mass= 78.11 g/mol) at 322.0 K to solidify the sample and
Kay [80]

Answer : The energy removed must be, 29.4 kJ

Explanation :

The process involved in this problem are :

(1):C_6H_6(l)(322K)\rightarrow C_6H_6(l)(279K)\\\\(2):C_6H_6(l)(279K)\rightarrow C_6H_6(s)(279K)\\\\(3):C_6H_6(s)(279K)\rightarrow C_6H_6(s)(205K)

The expression used will be:  

Q=[m\times c_{p,l}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})]+[m\times \Delta H_{fusion}]+[m\times c_{p,s}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})]

where,

Q = heat released for the reaction = ?

m = mass of benzene = 94.4 g

c_{p,s} = specific heat of solid benzene = 1.51J/g^oC=1.51J/g.K

c_{p,l} = specific heat of liquid benzene = 1.73J/g^oC=1.73J/g.K

\Delta H_{fusion} = enthalpy change for fusion = -9.8kJ/mol=-\frac{9.8\times 1000J/mol}{78g/mol}=-125.6J/g

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

Q=[94.4g\times 1.73J/g.K\times (279-322)K]+[94.4g\times -125.6J/g]+[94.4g\times 1.51J/g.K\times (205-279)K]

Q=-29427.312J=-29.4kJ

Negative sign indicates that the heat is removed from the system.

Therefore, the energy removed must be, 29.4 kJ

Calculate the moles of calcium oxalate formed from 5 grams of potassium oxalate (molar mass 184.24 g/mol) the mole mole ratio fr
Nataly_w [17]

5 g of potassium oxalate react to produce 0.03 moles of calcium oxalate.

Calcium oxalate (CaC₂O₄) is obtained by the reaction of 5 g of potassium oxalate (K₂C₂O₄).

We can calculate the moles of CaC₂O₄ obtained considering the following relationships.

  • The molar mass of K₂C₂O₄ is 184.24 g/mol.
  • The mole ratio of K₂C₂O₄ to CaC₂O₄ is 2:1.

5 g K_2C_2O_4 \times \frac{1molK_2C_2O_4}{184.24gK_2C_2O_4}  \times \frac{1molCaC_2O_4}{2molK_2C_2O_4} = 0.03molCaC_2O_4

5 g of potassium oxalate react to produce 0.03 moles of calcium oxalate.

In step 2, of the experiment, the procedure uses 3.0M NaOH. However, the student notices that the only solution of NaOH is conce
Luda [366]

Answer:

We need 78.9 mL of the 19.0 M NaOH solution

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Molarity of the original NaOH solution = 19.0 M

Molarity of the NaOH solution we want to prepare = 3.0 M

Volume of the NaOH solution we want to prepare = 500 mL = 0.500 L

Step 2: Calculate volume of the 19.0 M NaOH solution needed

C1*V1 = C2*V2

⇒with C1 = the concentration of the original NaOH solution = 19.0 M

⇒with V1 = the volume of the original NaOH solution = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with C2 = the concentration of the NaOH solution we want to prepare = 3.0 M

⇒with V2 = the volume  of the NaOH solution we want to prepare = 500 mL = 0.500 L

19.0 M * V2 = 3.0 M * 0.500 L

V2 = (3.0 M * 0.500L) / 19.0 M

V2 = 0.0789 L

We need 0.0789 L

This is 0.0789 * 10^3 mL = 78.9 mL

We need 78.9 mL of the 19.0 M NaOH solution

Describe briefly how to obtain the radial probability of an electron​
Kaylis [27]

Explanation:

The radial distribution function gives the probability density for an electron to be found anywhere on the surface of a sphere located a distance r from the proton. Since the area of a spherical surface is 4πr2, the radial distribution function is given by 4πr2R(r)∗R(r).
