A calorie is another term for carbohydrate.TF

1 answer:

8 0

This is false. A carbohydrate is a carbon-based molecule that can be utilized by living organisms in order to produce energy. A calorie is a unit of energy often used to measure the amount of energy within food. Another example of energy unit is the Joule, more commonly used within physics.

C + O2 = CO2

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

44 grams of CO₂ will be formed.

Explanation:

The balanced reaction is:

C + O₂ → CO₂

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of each compound participate in the reaction:

C: 1 mole
O₂: 1 mole
CO₂: 1 mole

Being the molar mass of each compound:

C: 12 g/mole
O₂: 32 g/mole
CO₂: 44 g/mole

By stoichiometry the following mass quantities participate in the reaction:

C: 1 mole* 12 g/mole= 12 g
O₂: 1 mole* 32 g/mole= 32 g
CO₂: 1 mole* 44 g/mole= 44 g

The limiting reagent is one that is consumed first in its entirety, determining the amount of product in the reaction. When the limiting reagent is finished, the chemical reaction will stop.

If 12 grams of C react, by stoichiometry 32 grams of O₂ react. But you have 40 grams of O₂. Since more mass of O₂ is available than is necessary to react with 12 grams of C, carbon C is the limiting reagent.

Then by stoichiometry of the reaction, you can see that 12 grams of C form 44 grams of CO₂.

44 grams of CO₂ will be formed.

Why are relative atomic masses on the periodic tables not whole numbers?

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

They are averages.

Explanation:

atomic numbers on periodic tables are derived from the average value of all the isotopes of the element. So being averages they are sometimes not integers.

In a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen gases, the mole fraction of nitrogen is 0.333. If the partial pressure of hydrogen in the

notka56 [123]

Answer:

$P_T=112.4torr$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since these problems about gas mixtures are based off Dalton's law in terms of mole fraction, partial pressure and total pressure, we can write the following for hydrogen, we are given its partial pressure:

$P_{H_2}=x_{H_2}*P_T$

And can be solved for the total pressure as follows:

$P_T=\frac{P_{H_2}}{x_{H_2}}$

However, we first calculate the mole fraction of hydrogen by subtracting that of nitrogen to 1 due to:

$x_{H_2}+x_{N_2}=1\\\\x_{H_2}=1-0.333=0.667$

Then, we can plug in to obtain the total pressure:

$P_T=\frac{75.0torr}{0.667}\\\\P_T=112.4torr$

Regards!

1. You are pushing a heavy shopping cart full of water bottles with a constant force. The shopping cart has

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

F = 50 N

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of car = 250 Kg

Acceleration of car = 0.20 m/s²

Force required = ?

Solution:

Formula:

F = m×a

F = applied force

m = mass

a = acceleration

Now we will put the values in formula.

F = 250 Kg × 0.20 m/s²

F = 50 Kg.m/s²

Kg.m/s² = N

F = 50 N
