slader An experiment is carried out where 13.9 g of solid NaOH is dissolved in 250.0 g of water in a coffee-cup calorimeter. Dis

solution is not a chemical reaction, but is a chemical process: NaOH(s) → Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) The mixture can be assumed to have the same specific heat capacity as liquid water (4.18 J g-1 ºC-1). What is the mass of the surroundings where the temperature is being measured in the experiment?

Answer:

The mass of the surrounding is M_t = 263.9 \ g

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The mass of  NaOH is  m = 13.9 \ g

      The mass of water is m_w = 250.0g

      The chemical equation for the dissociation process is

       NaOH _{(s) } ---> Na^{+}_{(aq)} + OH^{-} _{(aq)}

       The specific heat capacity of the mixture is c_p = 4.18 J g^{-1} C^{-1}

       

The combined mass of the solution is

         M_t = 13 + 250

         M_t = 263.9 \ g

The mass of the surround here is the mass of the coffee-cup calorimeter and this contain the mixture ( water and the NaOH ) so the mass of the surrounding is  

  M_t = 263.9 \ g

If winds blow against a mountain from the south, then on which slope would you find the least precipitation?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

The northern slope will have the least precipitation if winds blow against a mountain from the south.

<h3>What is Slope?</h3>

This is referred to as the degree of steepness on a surface such as rocky areas etc.

When wind blows on the southern part of a mountains, it gets stuck which is why the northern slope have the least precipitation.

What is the relative atomic mass of an element
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

20.2 amu.

Explanation:

Let A represent isotope ²⁰X

Let B represent isotope ²²X

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

For Isotope A (²⁰X):

Mass of A = 20

Abundance (A%) = 90%

For Isotope B (²²X):

Mass of B = 22

Abundance (A%) = 10%

Relative atomic mass (RAM) =?

The relative atomic mass (RAM) of the element can be obtained as follow:

RAM = [(Mass of A × A%)/100] + [(Mass of B × B%)/100]

RAM = [(20 × 90)/100] + [(22 × 10)/100]

RAM = 18 + 2.2

RAM = 20.2 amu

Thus, relative atomic mass (RAM) of the element is 20.2 amu

Identify all statements that accurately describe the structure of the pyruvate dehydrogenase ( PDH ) complex.
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

The statements that correctly describes pyruvate dehydrogenase includes:

- Several copies each of E 1 and E 3 surround E 2.

-A regulatory kinase and phosphatase are part of the mammalian PDH complex.

-E 2 contains three domains.

Explanation:

Pyruvate dehydrogenase is a hydrolase key enzyme in glucose metabolism which converts pyruvate to acetyl- ChoA. It also forms a complex that catalyzes an irreversible reaction that is the entry point of pyruvate into the TCA cycle. Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex contains E1, E2 and E3 enzymes that transform pyruvate, NAD+, coenzyme A into acetyl-CoA, CO2, and NADH. Also, A regulatory kinase and phosphatase are part of the mammalian PDH complex and E 2 contains three domains.
