It turns sugar into H2O and CO2. So I guess you could say it breaks down food to release energy.
Answer:
The work done and heat absorbed are both -8,1 kJ
Explanation:
The work done in an isobaric process is defined as:
W = -P (Vf - Vi)
Where P is pressure ( 10 atm)
Vf = 10 L
Vi = 2 L
Thus, <em>W = -80 atm×L ≡ -8,1 kJ</em>
This is the work done in expansion of the gas. As the gas remains at the same temperature, there is no change in internal energy doing that all work was absorbed as heat.
I hope it helps!
Varuable, In algebra, a symbol (usually a letter) standing in for an unknown numerical value in an equation :)
Yes, free electrons appear in balanced redox reaction equations. However, this is only true for half-reactions. This is because redox reactions primarily involve the transfer of electrons, which are better visualized if explicitly shown in the balanced reactions. In reduction reactions, electrons are placed on the left side of the equation. Oxidation reactions show electrons on the right side of the equation.
Explanation:
A half reaction is either the chemical reaction or reduction reaction part of an oxidoreduction reaction. A half reaction is obtained by considering the amendment in chemical reaction states of individual substances concerned within the oxidoreduction reaction. Half-reactions are usually used as a way of leveling oxidoreduction reactions.The half-reaction on the anode, wherever chemical reaction happens, is Zn(s) = Zn2+ (aq) + (2e-).
The metal loses 2 electrons to create Zn2+. The half-reaction on the cathode wherever reduction happens is Cu2+ (aq) + 2e- = Cu(s).
Here, the copper ions gain electrons and become solid copper.
