Answer:

The final pressure is 2.0 atm

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Number of moles of methanol = 4 moles

Number of moles of oxygen = 3 moles

Volume and temperature are fixed

Original pressure = 1.0 atm

<u>Step 2</u>: The balanced equation

2 CH3OH + 3 O2 → 2 CO2 + 4 H2O  

For 2 moles of CH3OH consumed, we need 3 moles of O2 to produce 2 moles of CO2 and 4 moles of H2O

This means the mol ratio methanol to oxygen = 2:3

<u>Step 3 : </u>Calculate the fina lpressure

Since methanol is a liquid and not a gas, it doesn't count for the pressure.

Number of moles O2 = 3 mol

This means the total number of moles for the reactants = 3 moles

The total number of moles  for the products = 2 + 4 = 6 moles of gas

Since V and T are fixed (and R is constant)

⇒ we can write the gas the gas law as following:

P2/P1 = n2/n1   OR P2 = (n2*P1)/n1

P2 = (6 mol * 1.0 atm ) / 3.0 mol

P2 = 2.0 atm

The final pressure is 2.0 atm

Cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen, which have high levels of free energy, and releases carbon dioxide and water, whic
Alja [10]

Answer: Cellular respiration is spontaneous and exergonic. The energy released from the glucose is stored in ATP molelcules.

Explanation:

Spontaneous reactions have an increase in entropy (level of disorder) and a decrease in enthalpy (total energy). Cellular respiration goes from a more ordered state (one molecule of glucose) to a more disordered state (several molecules of CO2), and goes from a state with a lot of free energy to one with much less free energy. As a result, respiration is a spontaneous process.

As free energy from the glucose is released as ATP molecules during oxidation, the reaction is exergonic.
