Answer:

Mitochondria

Explanation:

Glucose in an energy molecule contained in carbohydrate food substances. The end product of the digestion of carbohydrate is glucose which is broken down to produce energy.

The sequence of breakdown of glucose is as follows; In the first step, 6-carbon glucose is broken down into two molecules of  3-carbon pyruvic acid. This occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. It is an anaerobic process.

In the second step which occurs in the mitochondrion, each of the molecules of pyruvic acid is now oxidized to carbon dioxide and water and energy is produced in the process.

Calculate the mass of water produced when 4.86 g of butane reacts with excess oxygen.
Black_prince [1.1K]
The mass  of water  produced  when  4.86 g  of  butane(C4H10)   react  with  excess oxygen  is  calculated  as below

calculate  the  moles of  C4H10 used = mass/molar mass

moles = 4.86g/58  g/mol =0.0838  moles
write a balanced equation   for  reaction

2 C4H10  + 13 O2 =  8 CO2  + 10 H2O
by use of mole   ratio between C4H10  to H2O  which is   2:10  the  moles  of
H20=  0.0838  x10/2 = 0.419  moles  of  H2O

mass = moles  x  molar mass

=0.419 molx  18  g/mol  =  7.542 grams of water  is  formed

Tris base has a molecular weight of 121 g/mol. How many grams of tris base would you need to make 250ml of a 200mM SOLUTION
STatiana [176]

Answer:

6.05 g

Explanation:

Molarity of a substance , is the number of moles present in a liter of solution .

M = n / V

M = molarity

V = volume of solution in liter ,

n = moles of solute ,

From the question ,

M = 200mM

Since,

1 mM = 10⁻³ M

M = 200 * 10⁻³ M

V = 250 mL

Since,

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

V = 250 * 10⁻³ L

The moles can be calculated , by using the above relation,

M = n / V  

Putting the respective values ,

200 * 10⁻³ M = n / 250 * 10⁻³ L

n = 0.05 mol

Moles is denoted by given mass divided by the molecular mass ,

Hence ,

n = w / m

n = moles ,

w = given mass ,

m = molecular mass .

From the question ,

m = 121 g/mol

n = 0.05 mol ( calculated above )

The mass of tri base can be calculated by using the above equation ,

n = w / m  

Putting the respective values ,

0.05 mol = w / 121 g/mol

w = 0.05 mol * 121 g/mol

w = 6.05 g

You are analyzing a solid isolated from a reaction and find that its boiling point is over 1000 ∘ C . You dissolve the compound
babymother [125]

Answer:

Sodium iodide NaI  

Magnesium chloride MgCl₂

Explanation:

Silicon dioxide SiO₂ it is not soluble in water, so it can not be recrystallized from water, it is a white solid and the boiling point is 2230 °C. This one is not the unknown solid.

Sodium iodide NaI it is soluble in water, it has a white color and the boiling point is 1304 °C . This can be the unknown solid.

Magnesium chloride MgCl₂ is soluble in water, it have a white color and the boiling point is 1,412 °C . This can be the unknown solid.

Phosphorus tribromide PBr₃ is will start a hydrolysis reaction in water, it is a colorless liquid and it has a boiling point of 173 °C. This one is not the unknown solid.
