Answer:

Calcium

Explanation:

Calcium is needed in our body to make bones (skeletal system) and teeth strong. Apart from making bones and teeth strong, it is required in other body functions such as:

Enabling blood to clot

Helping in muscle contraction

Helping heart muscle in maintaining normal heart beat

About 99% of calcium present in the body is stored in bones. Calcium is stored in bones in the form of calcium phosphate.

Bones continuously replace old calcium with new one. Calcium is not produced in our body. It comes from daily diet, therefore, it essential to take calcium rich diet.

Use the following balanced reaction to solve:
Naily [24]

Answer:  60.7 g of PH_3 will be formed.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given volume}}{\text{Molar volume}}    

\text{Moles of} H_2=\frac{60L}{22.4L}=2.68moles

The balanced chemical reaction is

P_4(s)+6H_2(g)\rightarrow 4PH_3(g)

H_2 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and P_4 is the excess reagent.

According to stoichiometry :

6 moles of H_2 produce = 4 moles of PH_3

Thus 2.68 moles of H_2 will produce=\frac{4}{6}\times 2.68=1.79moles  of PH_3

Mass of PH_3=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=1.79moles\times 33.9g/mol=60.7g

Thus 60.7 g of PH_3 will be formed by reactiong 60 L of hydrogen gas with an excess of P_4

Answer:

There are  \mathbf{8.90172 \times 10^{-14}} moles of bactoX present in a 3.0 μL sample volume that contains 7.512×106 bacterial cells

Explanation:

Given that:

The number of molecules present in one bacterial cell is 7.140 \times 10^3 molecules

and the sample  contains 7.512 \times 10^6 molecules.

Number of moles = number of molecules /Avogadro's number

where;

Avogadro's number = 6.023 × 10²³

Number of moles = \dfrac{7.140 \times 10^3}{6.023 \times 10^{23}}

Number of moles = 1.185 \times 10^{-20} moles

So;  1.185 \times 10^{-20} moles  is present in one bacteria cell

Similarly;  the sample  contains 7.512 \times 10^6 molecules.

Therefore; the number of moles present in the bactoX is = 1.185 \times 10^{-20} \times 7.512 \times 10^6

= \mathbf{8.90172 \times 10^{-14}} moles

_________ are responsible for the transport of substances down a concentration gradient during facilitated diffusion.
8_murik_8 [283]
Channel proteins

Channel proteins are macromolecules that are embedded in plasma membranes of cells. Their function is to provide a pathway for molecules into and out of the cell, as the remaining parts of the membrane are impermeable. An example of such protein channels are those that are present to facilitate the diffusion of glucose.
