An ecosystem is a large community of living organisms (plants, animals and microbes) in a particular area. The living and physical components are linked together through nutrient cycles and energy flows. Basically where they live
Answer:
Mass = 8.46 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of water produced = ?
Mass of glucose = 20 g
Mass of oxygen = 15 g
Solution:
Chemical equation:
C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6H₂O + 6CO₂
Number of moles of glucose:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 20 g/ 180.16 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.11 mol
Number of moles of oxygen:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 15 g/ 32 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.47 mol
now we will compare the moles of water with oxygen and glucose.
C₆H₁₂O₆ : H₂O
1 : 6
0.11 : 6/1×0.11 = 0.66
O₂ : H₂O
6 : 6
0.47 : 0.47
Less number of moles of water are produced by oxygen thus it will limit the yield of water and act as limiting reactant.
Mass of water produced:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.47 mol ×18 g/mol
Mass = 8.46 g
Using the exponential decay model; we calculate "k"
We know that "A" is half of A0
A = A0 e^(k× 5050)
A/A0 = e^(5050k)
0.5 = e^(5055k)
In (0.5) = 5055k
-0.69315 = 5055k
k = -0.0001371
To calculate how long it will take to decay to 86% of the original mass
0.86 = e^(-0.0001371t)
In (0.86) = -0.0001371t
-0.150823 = -0.0001371 t
t = 1100 hours
<h3>your query : </h3>
Which statement about photosynthesis is FALSE?
Answer:
b. Oxygen is needed as a reactant to produce
glucose is the incorrect statement here
Explanation:
plants uses simple raw materials to prepare their food , which includes water ( H2O ) and Carbon dioxide ( CO2 ).
and traps sunlight by Green pigments known as chlorophyll and stores these energy in bonds of glucose molecules
so ,
after this reaction glucose and oxygen is formed as products
● hence we conclude that Oxygen is not needed as a reactant to produce glucose , oxygen is the bi product formed during photosynthesis.
