Answer:

Coral reefs are home to more species of fish and marine invertebrates than any other habitat in the world. Coral reefs protect beaches and shorelines from the impact of waves. Without coral reefs, beaches and shorelines can be severely damaged or washed away. Corals also produce unique chemicals that have potential uses in medicine.

Some athletes have as little as 3.0% body fat. If such a person has a body mass of 67 kg , how many pounds of body fat does that

Elanso [62]

Data:
mass = 67 Kg → 147.71 pounds

Solving:

$\frac{3}{100}*147.71 = \frac{443.13}{100} \approx \boxed{4.43\:pounds\:of\:body\:fat}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

Which subshells (s, p, d, f, or g) can have electrons with the indicated magnetic quantum number (ml)?

amm1812

Answer:

=3 means is 3 or greater so that would be f and g subshells

=0 means is 0 or greater so that would be s, p, d, f and g subshells

=1 means is 1 or greater so that would be p, d, f, and g subshells

=4 means is 4 or greater so that would be g only

What role do hydrogen ions play in the electron transport chain high?

jeka94

They are pumped across the mitochondrial inner membrane against their concentration gradient (to where their concentration is high); as the H+ ions flow back to where their concentration is low, they drive ATP synthase to form ATP

Why was mass lost from the crucible during the reaction?

Alexxandr [17]

If the crucible wasn't covered with a lid the reactants may have produced a gas that was released into the surroundings, or mass may have been lost in the form of water vapour.

A 1.00 g sample of octane (C8H18) is burned in a bomb calorimeter with a heat capacity of 837J∘C that holds 1200. g of water at

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

The heat of combustion for 1.00 mol of octane is -5485.7 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of octane = 1.00 grams

Heat capacity of calorimeter = 837 J/°C

Mass of water = 1200 grams

Temperature of water = 25.0°C

Final temperature : 33.2 °C

Step 2: Calculate heat absorbed by the calorimeter

q = c*ΔT

⇒ with c = the heat capacity of the calorimeter = 837 J/°C

⇒ with ΔT = The change of temperature = T2 - T1 = 33.2 - 25.0 : 8.2 °C

q = 837 * 8.2 = 6863.4 J

Step 3: Calculate heat absorbed by the water

q = m*c*ΔT

⇒ m = the mass of the water = 1200 grams

⇒ c = the specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

⇒ ΔT = The change in temperature = T2 - T1 = 33.2 - 25 = 8.2 °C

q = 1200 * 4.184 * 8.2 = 41170.56 J

Step 4: Calculate the total heat

qcalorimeter + qwater = 6863.4 + 41170. 56 = 48033.96 J = 48 kJ

Since this is an exothermic reaction, there is heat released. q is positive but ΔH is negative.

Step 5: Calculate moles of octane

Moles octane = 1.00 gram / 114.23 g/mol

Moles octane = 0.00875 moles

Step 6: Calculate heat combustion for 1.00 mol of octane

ΔH = -48 kJ / 0.00875 moles

ΔH = -5485.7 kJ/mol

The heat of combustion for 1.00 mol of octane is -5485.7 kJ/mol
