What is the role of carbon dioxide in photosynthesis

Chemistry

1 answer:

Vilka [71]3 years ago

8 0

Answer:

During the process of photosynthesis, cells use carbon dioxide and energy from the Sun to make sugar molecules and oxygen. Then, via respiration processes, cells use oxygen and glucose to synthesize energy-rich carrier molecules, such as ATP, and carbon dioxide is produced as a waste product

What is the percentage of hydrogen in c2h4

jarptica [38.1K]

Ethylene- C2H4 = 85.7% Carbon and 14.3% Hydrogen

Find the atomic masses for each element and multiply it by the number of atoms in the compound, then add.

C- 12.0 * 2= 24.0

H- 1.00 * 4= 4.00

-----------------------

28.0

Take the masses for each element and divide it by the total mass. Then change the answer to get the percent.

C 24.0 / 28.0= .857 = 85.7%

H 4.00 / 28.0= .143 = 14.3%

<h3>Ethylene is 85.7% Carbon and 14.3% Hydrogen </h3>

My professor gave me two questions to solve using the Van Der Waals Equation. She told us to solve for P and the second one we h

Fed [463]

Answer:

P=atm

$b=\frac{L}{mol}$

Explanation:

The problem give you the Van Der Waals equation:

$(P+\frac{n^{2}a}{V^{2}})(V-nb)=nRT$

First we are going to solve for P:

$(P+\frac{n^{2}a}{V^{2}})=\frac{nRT}{(V-nb)}$

$P=\frac{nRT}{(V-nb)}-\frac{n^{2}a}{v^{2}}$

Then you should know all the units of each term of the equation, that is:

$P=atm$

$n=mol$

$R=\frac{L.atm}{mol.K}$

$a=atm\frac{L^{2}}{mol^{2}}$

$b=\frac{L}{mol}$

$T=K$

$V=L$

where atm=atmosphere, L=litters, K=kelvin

Now, you should replace the units in the equation for each value:

$P=\frac{(mol)(\frac{L.atm}{mol.K})(K)}{L-(mol)(\frac{L}{mol})}-\frac{(mol^{2})(\frac{atm.L^{2}}{mol^{2}})}{L^{2}}$

Then you should multiply and eliminate the same units which they are dividing each other (Please see the photo below), so you have:

$P=\frac{L.atm}{L-L}-atm$

Then operate the fraction subtraction:

P= $P=\frac{L.atm-L.atm}{L}$

$P=\frac{L.atm}{L}$

And finally you can find the answer:

P=atm

Now solving for b:

$(P+\frac{n^{2}a}{V^{2}})(V-nb)=nRT$

$(V-nb)=\frac{nRT}{(P+\frac{n^{2}a}{V^{2}})}$

$nb=V-\frac{nRT}{(P+\frac{n^{2}a}{V^{2}})}$

$b=\frac{V-\frac{nRT}{(P+\frac{n^{2}a}{V^{2}})}}{n}$

Replacing units:

$b=\frac{L-\frac{(mol).(\frac{L.atm}{mol.K}).K}{(atm+\frac{mol^{2}.\frac{atm.L^{2}}{mol^{2}}}{L^{2}})}}{mol}$

Multiplying and dividing units,(please see the second photo below), we have:

$b=\frac{L-\frac{L.atm}{atm}}{mol}$

$b=\frac{L-L}{mol}$

$b=\frac{L}{mol}$
