Answer:

glucose

Explanation:

Chemical energy is stored in the bonds that hold the molecule together. ADP can be recycled into ATP when more energy becomes available. The energy to make ATP comes from glucose. Cells convert glucose to ATP in a process called cellular respiration.

Explain why calcium combines in a different ratio to a fluoride ion versus an oxide ion.

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

This is due the different charges of fluoride and oxide ions.

Explanation:

When calcium reacts it is oxidized to Ca²⁺. In the same way, fluoride ion is reduced to F⁻ and oxide ion to O²⁻.

When these ions are combined, the molecule must be neutral. That means 2 ions of F⁻ are necessaries and just 1 O²⁻ ion will reacts producing:

CaF₂ and CaO.

The different charges of these ions is the reason why calcium will combine in different ratios.

Blast furnaces extra pure iron from the Iron(IIl)oxide in iron ore in a two step sequence. In the first step, carbon and oxygen

OLga [1]

Answer:

5.9 kg

Explanation:

We must work backwards from the second step to work out the mass of oxygen.

1. Second step

Mᵣ: 55.84

Fe₂O₃ + 3CO ⟶ 2Fe + 3CO₂

m/kg: 7.0

(a) Moles of Fe

$\text{Moles of FeO} = \text{7000 g Fe} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol Fe}}{\text{55.84 g Fe}} = \text{125 mol Fe}$

(b) Moles of CO

$\text{Moles of CO} = \text{125 mol Fe} \times \dfrac{\text{3 mol CO}}{\text{2 mol Fe}} = \text{188 mol CO}$

However, this is the theoretical yield.

The actual yield is 72. %.

We need more CO and Fe₂O₃ to get the theoretical yield of Fe.

(c) Percent yield

$\begin{array}{rcl}\text{Percent yield} &=& \dfrac{\text{ actual yield}}{\text{ theoretical yield}} \times 100 \, \%\\\\ 72. \, \% & = & \dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{\text{actual yield}} \times 100 \,\%\\\\0.72 &= &\dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{\text{actual yield}}\\\\\text{Actual yield} & = & \dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{0.72}\\& = & \textbf{261 mol}\\\\\end{array}$

We must use 261 mol of CO to get 7.0 kg of Fe.

2. First step

Mᵣ: 32.00

2C + O₂ ⟶ 2CO

n/mol: 261

(a) Moles of O₂

$\text{Moles of O}_{2} = \text{261 mol CO} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol O}_{2}}{\text{2 mol CO}} = \text{131 mol O}_{2}$

(b) Mass of O₂

$\text{Mass of O}_{2}= \text{131 mol O }_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{32.00 g O}_{2}}{\text{1 mol O}_{2}} = \text{4180 g O}_{2}$

However, this is the theoretical yield.

The actual yield is 71. %.

We need more C and O₂ to get the theoretical yield of CO.

(c) Percent yield

$\begin{array}{rcl}71. \, \% & = & \dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{\text{actual yield}} \times 100 \,\%\\\\0.71 &= &\dfrac{\text{4180 g}}{\text{actual yield}}\\\\\text{Actual yield} & = & \dfrac{\text{4180 g}}{0.71}\\\\& = & \text{5900 g}\\& = & \textbf{5.9 kg}\\\end{array}$

We need 5.9 kg of O₂ to produce 7.0 kg of Fe.

Why the standard enthalpy change of hydration of copper sulphate cannot be measured directly ?

Juliette [100K]

It is difficult to measure the enthalpy change of hydration accurately in a direct way because the hydration process can't be controlled directly. Instead, anhydrous and hydrated copper(II) sulfate can be dissolved in water. Each 'route' produces a solution of hydrated copper(II) sulfate.
