2. A quantity of 1.922g of methanol (CH3OH) was burned in a constant-volume

1 answer:

5 0

Mass of methanol (CH3OH) = 1.922 g
Change in Temperature (t) = 4.20°C
Heat capacity of the bomb plus water = 10.4 KJ/oC
The heat absorbed by the bomb and water is equal to the product of the heat capacity and the temperature change.
Let’s assume that no heat is lost to the surroundings. First, let’s calculate the heat changes in the calorimeter. This is calculated using the formula shown below:
qcal = Ccalt
Where, qcal = heat of reaction
Ccal = heat capacity of calorimeter
t = change in temperature of the sample
Now, let’s calculate qcal:
qcal = (10.4 kJ/°C)(4.20°C)
= 43.68 kJ
Always qsys = qcal + qrxn = 0,
qrxn = -43.68 kJ
The heat change of the reaction is - 43.68 kJ which is the heat released by the combustion of 1.922 g of CH3OH. Therefore, the conversion factor is:

The net gain of energy in glycolysis from one molecule of glucose is

asambeis [7]

Answer:

2 ATP

Explanation:

glycolysis is the beginning of cellular respiration and it yielded net ATP of two produced from 1,3 bisphosphoglycerate conversion to 3-phosphoglycerate (2 ATP) and conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate ( 2ATP). One will recall that 2 ATP had been expended in the conversion of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate, and in the conversion of fructose-6-phosphate to fructose -1,6- bisphosphate. Other product of glycolysis are 2 NADH, 2 Pyruvate that may go into kreb cycle for further energy production depending on the organism type of respiration.
