Answer: ATP is the energy currency molecule which is required for cellular processes.

Explanation:

When the cell require metabolic energy to perform a particular a task. From the ATP or adenosine triphosphate molecule one of three phosphate molecule gets displaced and liberates the resulting molecule becomes adenosine diphosphate or ADP. The phosphate molecule is used by the cell to perform different cellular and metabolic functions as a source of metabolic energy. The phosphate is released by the hydrolysis of the phosphoanhydride bond with the other phosphate group.

A sample of an ideal gas has a volume of 0.500 L at 25 degrees celcius and 1.20 atm pressure. What is its volume at 75 degrees c

NemiM [27]

The ideal gas law is PV= nRT.
First you need to manipulate the equation to splice for volume,
Which will be V= nRT/P

Now you need to input the numbers for each variable. Make sure to remember what the value R equals and it’s units. R= 0.08206 L•atm/n•K

1. When an acid reacts with a base, what compounds are formed? (1 point) a salt only water only metal oxides only a salt and wat

scoundrel [369]

Answer: 1) only a salt and water

An acid and base reacts together to undergo neutralization to form salt and water.

$HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O$

where HCl is an acid and NaOH is a base to form salt (NaCl) and water $(H_2O)$ .

Answer: 2) The formula of the hydrogen ion is often written as $H^+$ .

All acids dissociate in water to give $H^+$ ions.

Answer: 3) Arrhenius acids are substances that ionizes to yield protons in aqueous solution.

$HCl\rightarrow H^++Cl^-$

Arrhenius bases are substance that ionizes to yield hydroxide ions in aqueous solution.

$NaOH\rightarrow Na^++OH^-$

Answer: 4) A conjugate acid base pair transfers hydrogen ion.

$CH_3COO^-+H_2O\rightarrow CH_3COOH+H_3O^+$

Here $CH_3COO^-$ accepts a proton and thus act as a base and the corresponding $CH_3COOH$ is its conjugate acid.

Answer: 5) Bronsted Lowry acid is a substance that donates protons. Bronsted Lowry base is a substance that accepts protons.

$NH_4^+$ and $NH_3$

$NH_3+H^+\rightarrow NH_4^+$

$NH_3$ is a acid which accepts proton and thus acts as base to form conjugate acid $NH_4^+$ .
