Answer:
a) Keq = 4.5x10^-6
b) [oxaloacetate] = 9x10^-9 M
c) 23 oxaloacetate molecules
Explanation:
a) In the standard state we have to:
ΔGo = -R*T*ln(Keq) (eq.1)
ΔGo = 30.5 kJ/moles = 30500 J/moles
R = 8.314 J*K^-1*moles^-1
Clearing Keq:
Keq = e^(ΔGo/-R*T) = e^(30500/(-8.314*298)) = 4.5x10^-6
b) Keq = ([oxaloacetate]*[NADH])/([L-malate]*[NAD+])
4.5x10^-6 = ([oxaloacetate]/(0.20*10)
Clearing [oxaloacetate]:
[oxaloacetate] = 9x10^-9 M
c) the radius of the mitochondria is equal to:
r = 10^-5 dm
The volume of the mitochondria is:
V = (4/3)*pi*r^3 = (4/3)*pi*(10^-15)^3 = 4.18x10^-42 L
1 L of mitochondria contains 9x10^-9 M of oxaloacetate
Thus, 4.18x10^-42 L of mitochondria contains:
molecules of oxaloacetate = 4.18x10^-42 * 9x10^-9 * 6.023x10^23 = 2.27x10^-26 = 23 oxaloacetate molecules
Pressure since pressure is defined as force per unit area and the molecules exert a force on the walls of the container when they bombard it
Rub the magnet on the iron an it will cause a stronger force of attraction. Hope this helped!
Answer:
8.55 × 10³ cal
Explanation:
Step 1: Given and required data
- Specific heat of water (c): 1 cal/g.°C
- Initial temperature: 22.7 °C
- Final temperature: 38.8 °C
Step 2: Calculate the temperature change (ΔT)
ΔT = Final temperature - Initial temperature = 38.8 °C - 22.7 °C = 16.1 °C
Step 3: Calculate the heat required (Q)
We will use the following expression.
Q = c × m × ΔT
Q = 1 cal/g.°C × 531 g × 16.1 °C = 8.55 × 10³ cal
