<span>The lungs are the main organ of the respiratory system, which carries oxygen through the body by means of red blood cells and picks up carbon dioxide, a waste gas, to expel from the body when an organism exhales. The trachea filters the inhaled air and branches into the bronchi, where the air tubes carry air directly into the lungs. The diaphragm is the main muscle of the respiratory system, contracting to increase the volume of the lungs and carry air into the body and expanding to force air out of the lungs.</span>

Slicing an average loaf of bread gives 13 medium thickness slices. Each slice of bread is to be coated with 0.0500 oz of mayonna

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

36 loaves of bread and 18.48 ounces of mayonnaise are needed to make all of the sandwiches.

Explanation:

Number of slices of ham = 231

Given that each sandwich has 1 slice of ham.

Then 231 slices of ham will be in :

$1\times 231 =231 sandwiches$

A single sandwich is made up of 2 bread slices , Then bread slices in 231 sandwiches will be :

$231\times 2=462$

Each bread slice is applied with 0.0500 ounce of mayonnaise.

Then 462 bread slices will have :

$462\times 0.0500 ounces=18.48 Oz$

1 bread loaf = 13 bread slices

Then breads loves in 462 bread slices :

$\frac{462}{13}=35.54\approx 36$

36 loaves of bread and 18.48 ounces of mayonnaise are needed to make all of the sandwiches.

The concentrated sulfuric acid we use in the laboratory is 98.0% sulfuric acid by weight. Calculate the molality and molarity of

timama [110]

Answer : The molarity and molality of the solution is, 18.29 mole/L and 499.59 mole/Kg respectively.

Solution : Given,

Density of solution = $1.83g/cm^3=1.83g/ml$

Molar mass of sulfuric acid (solute) = 98.079 g/mole

98.0 % sulfuric acid by mass means that 98.0 gram of sulfuric acid is present in 100 g of solution.

Mass of sulfuric acid (solute) = 98.0 g

Mass of solution = 100 g

Mass of solvent = Mass of solution - Mass of solute = 100 - 98.0 = 2 g

First we have to calculate the volume of solution.

$\text{Volume of solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solution}}{\text{Density of solution}}=\frac{100g}{1.83g/ml}=54.64ml$

Now we have to calculate the molarity of solution.

$Molarity=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{volume of solution}}=\frac{98.0g\times 1000}{98.079g/mole\times 54.64ml}=18.29mole/L$

Now we have to calculate the molality of the solution.

$Molality=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Mass of solvent}}=\frac{98.0g\times 1000}{98.079g/mole\times 2g}=499.59mole/Kg$

Therefore, the molarity and molality of the solution is, 18.29 mole/L and 499.59 mole/Kg respectively.

Complete the reaction, which is part of the electron transport chain. The abbreviation FMN represents flavin mononucleotide. Use

Margarita [4]

Answer:

1. NADH + H⁺ + FMN + Q ⟶ NAD⁺ + FMN + QH₂

2. The reactant that is reduced is Q

3. The charge on iron on the right side is +2, Fe²⁺

Explanation:

NADH + H⁺ + FMN + Q ⟶ NAD⁺ + FMN + QH₂

The reaction above is catalysed by NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex 1), which transfers a hydride ion from NADH to FMN, from which two electrons pass through a series of of Fe-S centers to the iron-sulfur protein N-2. Electron transfer from N-2 to Ubiquinone forms QH₂

The species in a reaction which gains hydrogen irons is reduced, Therefore, the reactant that is reduced is Q, ubiquinone to form QH₂, ubiquinol.

To determine the oxidation number of iron on the right side of the reaction below,

QH2 + 2cyt c ( Fe3+) ⟶ Q + 2cyt c(Fex) + 2H^+

Sum of charges on the left side = Sum of charges on the right side

Sum of charges on the left side = 2 *+3 = +6

Therefore 2 * x + 2= 6

2x = 6 -2 = 4

x = 4/

x = 2

Therefore the charge on iron on the right side is +2, Fe²⁺
