Which of the following represents radiant energy being converted to chemical energy?

1 answer:

6 0

ANSWER

The correct answer is A

EXPLANATION

Plants manufacture their on food by the process of photosynthesis. During this process, plants trap radiant energy from the sun by the help of chlorophyll in the leaves.

Radiant energy with other raw materials such as water, carbon dioxide and mineral salts is converted to food (in the form of starch) which contains chemical energy.

How many molecules of CBr4 are in 250 grams of CBr4

Kazeer [188]

Answer:- $4.54*10^2^3$ molecules.

Solution:- The grams of tetrabromomethane are given and it asks to calculate the number of molecules.

It is a two step unit conversion problem. In the first step, grams are converted to moles on dividing the grams by molar mass.

In second step, the moles are converted to molecules on multiplying by Avogadro number.

Molar mass of $CBr_4$ = 12+4(79.9) = 331.6 g per mol

let's make the set up using dimensional analysis:

$250g(\frac{1mol}{331.6g})(\frac{6.022*10^2^3molecules}{1mol})$

= $4.54*10^2^3$ molecules

So, there will be $4.54*10^2^3$ molecules in 250 grams of $CBr_4$ .

Construct a simulated 1H NMR spectrum, including proton integrations, for CH3OC(CH2OCH3)3 (see Hint). Drag the appropriate split

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The drawing of the structure is found in diagram 1 of the attached figure.

Explanation:

Diagram 1 shows that three different types of protons are found in the structure. The nine hydrogen atoms have a similar behavior, the six hydrogen atoms also have a similar behavior and finally, the three hydrogen atoms adjacent to oxygen have a similar behavior. The number of peaks are as follows:

9H = singlet peak = between 3 and 4 ppm

6H = singlet peak = 4 ppm

3H = singlet peak = 3 ppm.

The 9 protons are around 3.5 ppm and the 6 hydrogen atoms show a peak at 4 ppm, and finally, the 3 protons have a peak around 3 ppm. Therefore, the corresponding drawing can be seen in diagram 2.

A plot of binding energy per nucleon (Eb/ A) versus the mass number (A) shows that nuclei with a small mass number have a small

juin [17]

Answer:

a) 1.12 MeV / nucleon

b) 5.62 MeV / nucleon

c) 8.80 MeV / nucleon

d) 8.56 MeV / nucleon

we can conclude that the binding energy has a maximum value for nuclei with a mass around 60

Explanation:

Binding energy = ( Δm * 931.5 ) MeV

Binding energy per nucleon = Binding energy in / Number of nucleon

a) ²H = 1 neutron , 1 proton = 2 nucleons

Given that the theoretical mass = 2.0141 u

Actual mass = 1.0078 u + 1.0087 u = 2.0165 u

Δm = 2.0165 u - 2.0141 u = 2.4 * 10^-3 u

∴ Binding energy per nucleon = ( 2.4 * 10^-3 * 931.5 ) MeV / 2 nucleons

= 1.12 MeV / nucleon

b) ⁷Li = 3 protons , 4 neutrons = 7 nucleons

theoretical mass = 7.0160 u

Actual mass = ( 3 * 1.0078 ) + ( 4 * 1.0087 ) = 7.0582 u

Δm = ( 7.0582 u - 7.0160 u ) = 0.0422 u

∴ Binding energy per nucleon = ( 0.0422 * 931.5 ) / 7

= 5.62 MeV / nucleon

C) ⁶²Ni = 28 protons , 34 neutrons = 62 nucleons

Theoretical mass = 61.9283 u

Actual mass = ( 28 * 1.0078 ) u + ( 34 * 1.0087 ) u

= 62.5142 u

Δm = 0.5859 u

∴ Binding energy per nucleon = ( 0.5859 * 931.5 ) / 62

= 8.80 MeV / nucleon

D) ¹¹⁰Cd = 48 protons , 62 neutrons = 110 nucleons

Theoretical mass = 109.9030 u

Actual mass = ( 48 * 1.0078 ) + ( 62 * 1.0087 )

= 110.9138 u

Δm = ( 110.9138 - 109.9030 ) = 1.0108 u

∴ Binding energy per nucleon = ( 1.0108 * 931.5 ) / 110

= 8.56 MeV / nucleon

hence we can conclude that the binding energy has a maximum value for nuclei with a mass around 60
