In the presence of excess oxygen, methane gas burns in a constant-pressure system to yield carbon dioxide and water: CH4 (g) + 2

O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + 2H2O (l) ΔH = -890.0 kJ Calculate the value of q (kJ) in this exothermic reaction when 1.80 g of methane is combusted at constant pressure.

<u>Answer:</u> The value of q for the reaction will be -100.1 kJ

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass of methane = 1.80 g

Molar mass of methane = 16 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of }CH_4=\frac{1.80g}{16g/mol}=0.1125mol

For the given chemical reaction:

CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l);\Delta H^o_{rxn}=-890.0kJ

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

When 1 mole of methane reacts, the heat released is 890.0 kJ

So, when 0.1125 moles of methane will react, the heat released will be \frac{890.0kJ}{1mol}\times 0.1125mol=100.1kJ

<u>Sign convention of heat (q):</u>

When heat is absorbed, the sign of heat is taken to be positive and when heat is released, the sign of heat is taken to be negative.

Hence, the value of q for the reaction will be -100.1 kJ

How many sodium ions are in 1.4 kg of sodium chloride, NaCl?
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

1.44 x 10²⁵ ions of Na⁺

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of NaCl  = 1.4kg  = 1400g

Unknown:

Number of ions of sodium  = ?

Solution:

The compound NaCl in ionic form can be written as;

      NaCl →  Na⁺ + Cl⁻

In 1 mole of NaCl we have 1 mole of sodium ions

 Now, let us find the number of moles in NaCl;

  Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}  

    Molar mass of NaCl  = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

Number of moles  =  \frac{1400}{58.5}     = 23.93mol

 So;

   Since 1 mole of NaCl gives 1 mole of Na⁺  

    In 23.93 mole of NaCl will give 23.93 mole of Na⁺

1 mole of a substance  = 6.02 x 10²³ ions of a substance

  23.93 mole of a substance  =  6.02 x 10²³ x  23.93

                                                   = 1.44 x 10²⁵ ions of Na⁺

Which of the following is false? a. an apoenzyme can catalyze its reaction without its cofactor b an organic cofactor can be cal
ozzi

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A protein part of an enzyme is known as an apoenzyme. An apoenzyme combines with a cofactor, it is known as holoenzyme.

Without a cofactor an apoenzyme cannot function as cofactor helps in the formation of an active enzyme system and provides a specific site on enzyme for the substrate.

Whereas a non-protein chemical compound or metal ion that helps in the activity of enzyme as a catalyst is known as a cofactor. A metal ion cofactor can be bound directly to the enzyme or to a coenzyme.

The organic non-protein molecules which bind to the protein molecule to form an active enzyme is known as a coenzyme. Coenzymes are small size molecules which help the enzymes to act as a catalyst.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement an apoenzyme can catalyze its reaction without its cofactor, is false.

A study assessing the effect of anxiety (low vs. high) and stress (low vs. moderate vs. high) on test.

Everyone experiences anxiety occasionally, but persistent anxiety can reduce your quality of life. Though likely best known for altering behavior, worry can have negative effects on our physical health. Anxiety speeds up our heartbeat and breathing, concentrating blood flow to the parts of our brains that need it. You are getting ready for a challenging situation by having this extremely bodily reaction. Test performance may be impacted by anxiety. According to studies, pupils with low levels of test anxiety perform better on multiple-choice question (MCQ) exams than pupils with high levels of anxiety. Studies have indicated that female students have greater levels of test anxiety than male students.
