Answer:

The respiratory system is a system in your body that is in charge of helping you breathe. the respiratory system is made up of airways, lungs, and blood vessels, these parts work together to get oxygen into your body. Our respiratory system is a vital system, as it lets us live and breathe.

The respiratory system helps you breathe, absorb oxygen, and it cleans waste gases. your respiratory system also has problems such as allergies, diseases, and infections. it helps you smell, gives you protection from dust and microbes entering your body through your mucus production, cilia ( small nasal hairs ), and coughing.

How would a disease that damages the nucleus most directly affect the functioning of cells?

RSB [31]

Answer:

Hereditary information in the cell would be destroyed.

Explanation:

The nucleus can be defined as a membrane bound organelle that is found in eukaryotic cells. The main function of the nucleus is that it controls all activities that is related to the growth of the cell and also reproduction. The nucleus contains the cell hereditary information(DNA).

The nucleus is the most important organelle in the cell, It can sometimes be referred to as the brain of the cell. Therefore any health related condition that affects the nucleus would directly destroy all hereditary information that is stored in the cell.

Consider the following reaction between calcium oxide and carbon dioxide: CaO(s)+CO2(g)→CaCO3(s) A chemist allows 14.4 g of CaO

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Theoretical yield =26.03 g

Percent yield = 87%

Limiting reactant = CaO

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CaO = 14.4 g

Mass of CO₂ = 13.8 g

Actual yield of CaCO₃ = 22.6 g

Theoretical yield = ?

Percent yield = ?

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

CaO + CO₂ → CaCO₃

Number of moles of CaO:

Number of moles = Mass /molar mass

Number of moles = 14.4 g / 56.1 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.26 mol

Number of moles of CO₂:

Number of moles = Mass /molar mass

Number of moles = 13.8 g / 44 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.31 mol

Now we will compare the moles of CO₂ and CaO with CaCO₃ .

CO₂ : CaCO₃

1 : 1

0.31 : 0.31

CaO : CaCO₃

1 : 1

0.26 : 0.26

The number of moles of CaCO₃ produced by CaO are less it will be limiting reactant.

Mass of CaCO₃: Theoretical yield

Mass of CaCO₃ = moles × molar mass

Mass of CaCO₃ =0.26 mol × 100.1 g/mol

Mass of CaCO₃ = 26.03 g

Percent yield:

Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield × 100

Percent yield = 22.6 g/ 26.03 g × 100

Percent yield = 0.87× 100

Percent yield = 87%

Limiting reactant:

The number of moles of CaCO₃ produced by CaO are less it will be limiting reactant.

Consider the reaction between iron (III) oxide, Fe2O3 and carbon monoxide, CO. Fe2O3 + 3CO --> 2Fe + 3CO2 In the process, 213

s344n2d4d5 [400]

To calculate the mass of Fe formed in a) we get first the limiting reactant between Fe2O3 and CO. Given the masses, the ratio of Fe2O3 is 1.33 while that of CO is 1.67. Hence the limiting reagent is Fe2O3. The mass of Fe formed is 148.98 grams. In b, the needed CO is only 112.04 grams. Hence, the excess is 27. 96 grams.
