How would the energy needs of a cell be compared to the energy needs of a city ?

1 answer:

3 0

The energy needs of a cell is very important because they need energy to breakdown,synthesis, and transport nutrients and molecules so an living organism can survive just like how the city needs energy to power its cities so it’s people can do what they need to do to survive. HOPE IT HELPS

The thermite reaction reacts iron (III) oxide, Fe2O3, with aluminium powder,Al, the form aluminium oxide, Al2O3 and iron, Fe.

lara [203]

Answer:

This answer assumes that the strated "16.0g of iron" was meant to be 16.0 grams of iron(III) oxide.

Explanation:

To start, the thermite equation must be balanced.

I find:

1Fe2O3 + 2Al = 1Al2O3 + 2Fe

This tells us we need 2 moles of Al for every 1 mole of Fe2O3.

Now calculate the moles of each reactant:

Moles Fe2O3: 16.0 g/159.7 g/mole = 0.100 moles Fe2O3

Moles Al: 8.1 /26.98 g/mole = 0.300 moles Al

The balanced equation says that in order to react all of the Fe2O3 we'd need twice that amount (in moles) of the Al. (0.100 moles Fe2O3)*(2) = 0.200 moles Al.

Which of the two reactants is the limiting reagent?

We have more than enough moles of Al to react with 0.10 moles of Fe2O3. (We have 0.300 moles Al and all we need is 0.200 moles to react with the 0.10 moles of Fe2O3. Fe2O3 is the limiting reagent.

Calculate the maximum mass of iron of iron that could be formed using these quantities of reactants.

The balanced equation tells us that we will obtain 2 moles of Fe for every 1 mole of Fe2O3 consumed. Since Fe2O3 is the limiting reagent, we will assume that it completely reacts. That means 0.1 moles of Fe2O3 is reacted. Since we expect twice that many moles of Fe, we should obtain 0.200 moles of Fe. At 55.85 g/mole, we should obtain:

(0.200 moles Fe)*(55.85 g Fe/mole Fe) = 11.2 grams Fe

The half life of 226/88 Ra is 1620 years. How much of a 12 g sample of 226/88 Ra will be left after 8 half lives?

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

0.0468 g.

Explanation:

The decay of radioactive elements obeys first-order kinetics.

For a first-order reaction: k = ln2/(t1/2) = 0.693/(t1/2).

Where, k is the rate constant of the reaction.

t1/2 is the half-life time of the reaction (t1/2 = 1620 years).

∴ k = ln2/(t1/2) = 0.693/(1620 years) = 4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹.

For first-order reaction: kt = lna/(a-x).

where, k is the rate constant of the reaction (k = 4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹).

t is the time of the reaction (t = t1/2 x 8 = 1620 years x 8 = 12960 year).

a is the initial concentration (a = 12.0 g).

(a-x) is the remaining concentration.

∴ kt = lna/(a-x)

(4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹)(12960 year) = ln(12)/(a-x).

5.54688 = ln(12)/(a-x).

Taking e for the both sides:

256.34 = (12)/(a-x).

∴ (a-x) = 12/256.34 = 0.0468 g.
