Answer:
102g
Explanation:
To find the mass of ethanol formed, we first need to ensure that we have a balanced chemical equation. A balanced chemical equation is where the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation (reactants and products). This is useful as only when a chemical equation is balanced, we can understand the relationship of the amount (moles) of reactant and products, or to put it simply, their relationship with one another.
In this case, the given equation is already balanced.

From the equation, the amount of ethanol produced is twice the amount of yeast present, or the same amount of carbon dioxide produced. Do note that amount refers to the number of moles here.
Mole= Mass ÷Mr
Mass= Mole ×Mr
<u>Method 1: using the </u><u>mass of glucose</u>
Mr of glucose
= 6(12) +12(1) +6(16)
= 180
Moles of glucose reacted
= 200 ÷180
=
mol
Amount of ethanol formed: moles of glucose reacted= 2: 1
Amount of ethanol
= 
=
mol
Mass of ethanol
= ![\frac{20}{9} \times[2(12)+6+16]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B20%7D%7B9%7D%20%5Ctimes%5B2%2812%29%2B6%2B16%5D)
= 
= 102 g (3 s.f.)
<u>Method 2: using </u><u>mass of carbon dioxide</u><u> produced</u>
Mole of carbon dioxide produced
= 97.7 ÷[12 +2(16)]
= 97.7 ÷44
=
mol
Moles of ethanol: moles of carbon dioxide= 1: 1
Moles of ethanol formed=
mol
Mass of ethanol formed
= ![\frac{977}{440} \times[2(12)+6+16]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B977%7D%7B440%7D%20%5Ctimes%5B2%2812%29%2B6%2B16%5D)
= 102 g (3 s.f.)
Thus, 102 g of ethanol are formed.

Answer: Reducing agent in the given reaction is
.
Explanation:
A reducing agent is defined as an element which tends to lose electrons to other element leading to an increase in its oxidation number.
In the given reaction, oxidation state of sulfur in
is +2 and
has 0 oxidation state.
In
oxidation state of S is 2.5 and in
oxidation state of I is -1.
Since, an increase in oxidation state of S is occurring from +2 to +2.5. Hence, it is acting as a reducing agent.
Thus, we can conclude that reducing agent in the given reaction is
.
The general equation for radioactive decay is;
N = N₀e^(-λt)
x - decay constant (λ) - rate of decay
t- time
N - amount remaining after t days , since we are calculating the half life, amount of time it takes for the substance to to be half its original value, its N₀/2
N₀ - amount initially present
substituting the values
N₀/2 = N₀e^(-0.081t)
0.5 = e^(-0.081t)
ln (0.5) = -0.081t
-0.693 = -0.081t
t = 0.693 / 0.081
= 8.55
half life of substance is 8.55 days
Answer:
density=1.43 g/L
Explanation:
Since the density formula is density = mass / volume, we need to find out the mass of the gas and the volume is that of the container.
The mass of the gas is 130.0318 g-129.6375 g=0.3943 g
The gas volume is 276mL*(1L/1000mL) 0.276 L
density = mass / volume=0.3943g/0.276L
density =1.43g/L
Bioaccumulation refers to the accumulation of chemicals in a living organism. The compound or chemical accumulates at a rate faster than it is being metabolized or excreted by the organism. Chemicals bioaccumulate by binding to the proteins and fats in an organism while others bioaccumulate through the repeated consumption of contaminated organisms.
Pesticides containing chemicals that dissolve easily in fat but not in water tend to bioaccumulate. Pesticides that contain chemicals that can easily be metabolized by organisms do not bioaccumulate. In summary, the nature of the chemical used in pesticides and the capability of organisms to metabolize the said chemicals can dictate whether it will bioaccumulate or not.
