Propose a method for determining the specific heat for a metal like sodium which reacts violently with water.

nalin [4]

You can put a known amount sodium into some sort of time release mechanism such as a pill made from soluble material. Then you can place the sodium into a calorimeter with a known mass of water and record the temperature change the water undergoes during the reaction. Then you can use the equation q(water)=m(water)c(water)ΔT to find the amount of heat absorbed by the water. since the amount of heat absorbed by the water is the amount of heat released from the sodium, q(sodium)=-q(water). Than you can use the equation q(sodium)=m(sodium)c(sodium)ΔT and solve for c(sodium)

I hope this helps and feel free to ask about anything that was unclear in the comments.

Assume that the maximum number of ATPs is produced (38). At pH 7, and in the presence of excess Mg2 , how much of the energy in

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

In one mole of glucose 38 ATP energy is stored this accounts for only 40 per-cent of the total energy in glucose.

Explanation:

In standard conditions, during the cellular respiration 1 mole of Glucose in the presence of oxygen produces 36 or 38 ATPs. This accounts for only 40% of the total energy as the remaining 60 per-cent of the energy is dissipated as heat.

I mole of glucose enters the glycolysis step of aerobic cellular respiration which after oxidative phosphorylation and Electron transport chain would give 38 ATP molecules.

It can be said that only 38.3% of energy is put in ATP molecules.

certain gas occupies 6.24L at pressure of 760 mm Hg.If the pressure is reduced to 60.0mm Hg,what would the new volume be?

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

79.04 L

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial Volume; V1 = 6.24L

Initial Pressure; P1 = 760 mm Hg

Final pressure; P2 = 60.0mm Hg

To solve for final volume, we will use Boyles law;

P1•V1 = P2•V2

Let's make V2 which is the final volume the subject;

V2 = (P1•V1)/P2

V2 = (760 × 6.24)/60

V2 = 79.04 L

The natural abundances of elements in the human body, expressed as percent by mass, are: oxygen (O),65 percent; carbon (C), 18 p

almond37 [142]

Answer:

The mass in grams of each element in the body of 62 Kg are

Oxygen 40300 g

Carbon 11160 g

Hydrogen 6200 g

Nitrogen 1860 g

Calcium 992 g

Phosphorus 744 g

Other elements 744 g

It is possible to check it adding all the components, the total is 62000 g.

Explanation:

Firstly, we have a total mass of 62 Kg and the composition as a percentage of each component.

Percentage ( %)

Oxygen 65.0

Carbon 18.0

Hydrogen 10.0

Nitrogen 3.0

Calcium 1.6

Phosphorus 1.2

Other elements 1.2

Taking the definition of a percentage as part of hundred total, each percentage can be expressed as a decimal number. We should divide the percentage with 100 of total. For example: Oxygen 65%, it means 65/100 = 0.65. So, Oxygen is 0.65 in decimal numbers. We do the same for each component.

Percentage ( %) Decimal number

Oxygen 65.0 65/100 = 0.65

Carbon 18.0 18/100 = 0.18

Hydrogen 10.0 10/100 = 0.10

Nitrogen 3.0 3/100 = 0.03

Calcium 1.6 1.6/100 = 0.016

Phosphorus 1.2 1.2/100 = 0.012

Other elements 1.2 1.2/100 = 0.012

Finally. We can multiply decimal number of each component taking the total. 1 Kg is equivalent to 1000 g.

So, 62 Kg = 62 * 1000 g = 62000 g

After that we get the mass in grams of each element, by multiplying 62000 g and the decimal number of each component as follows:

Percentage ( %) Decimal number Mass in grams (g)

Oxygen 65.0 65/100 = 0.65 0.65*62000=40300

Carbon 18.0 18/100 = 0.18 0.18*62000= 11160

Hydrogen 10.0 10/100 = 0.10 0.10*62000= 6200

Nitrogen 3.0 3/100 = 0.03 0.03*62000= 1860

Calcium 1.6 1.6/100 = 0.016 0.016*62000= 992

Phosphorus 1.2 1.2/100 = 0.012 0.012*62000=744

Other elements 1.2 1.2/100 = 0.012 0.012*62000=744

What would be the effect on the observed melting point of sample were poorly packed?

Neko [114]

If a sample is packed poorly, the sample will not heat evenly and will take longer to melt.
