Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf A.\ Protein}}$

Explanation:

Macromolecules play many important roles in the body. Let's list the functions of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids.

Proteins:

These molecules help with growth, building and repairing cells, transporting substances, and acting as enzymes or hormones.

Carbohydrates:

These molecules are used for energy. They can provide quick energy, because they are easy to break down.

Lipids:

These help store energy for later use, plus they are sometimes insulators and hormones.

Based on the information, the molecule responsible for repair and growth must be <u>protein.</u>

In the determining molar volume experiment, we will use water. how will vapor pressure play a role in this experiment?

Bas_tet [7]

Molar volume is a property of a component in a solution. It is defined as the volume occupied by one mole of the component in the closed system. You would not expect all solutions to execute volume additivity because intermolecular forces between the components come into play. There is no such thing as conservation of volume.

Vapor pressure affects molar volume because gases are very sensitive by these process conditions. Vapor pressure is very temperature-dependent. Consequently, at a different temperature, your component could expand or compress, thus, affecting the molar volume. Moreover, the pressure affects the molecular collisions in the system.

A 50.00 g sample of an unknown metal is heated to 45.00°C. It is then placed in a coffee-cup calorimeter filled with water. The

True [87]

First, in order to calculate the specific heat capacity of the metal in help in identifying it, we must find the heat absorbed by the calorimeter using:
Energy = mass * specific heat capacity * change in temperature
Q = 250 * 1.035 * (11.08 - 10)
Q = 279.45 cal/g

Next, we use the same formula for the metal as the heat absorbed by the calorimeter is equal to the heal released by the metal.

-279.45 = 50 * c * (11.08 - 45) [minus sign added as energy released]
c = 0.165

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.165 cal/gC
