Answer:

There is 78.25g NaHCO3 required

Explanation:

Step 1: Balance the equation

2 NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + CO2 + H20

For 2 moles of NaHCO3 consumed, there is produced 1 mole of Na2CO3, 1 mole of CO2 and 1 mole of H2O.

Step 2: calculating moles of CO2

mass of Co2 = 20.5g

Molar mass of CO2 = 44.01 g/mole

moles of CO2 = 20.5 / 44.01 = 0.4658 moles

Step 3: Calculating moles of NaHCO3

Since we have for 1 mole CO2 produced, there is 2 moles of NaHCO3 consumed.

To calculate number of moles of NaHCO3, we have to multiply the number of moles of CO2, by 2.

⇒ 0.4658 x2 = 0.9316 moles

Step 4: Calculating the mass of NaHCO3

mass of NaHCO3 = moles of NaHCO3 x Molar mass of NaHCO3

mass = 0.9316 moles x 84g/ mole = 78.25g NaHCO3

There is 78.25g NaHCO3 required

If you have a 1500 g aluminum pot, how much heat energy is needed to raise its temperature by 100°C?
Nataly [62]

The heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1500 g of aluminium pot by 100°C is 135 kJ.

The heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1500 g of copper pot by 100 °C is 57.75 kJ.

Explanation:

The heat energy required to raise the temperature of any body can be obtained from the specific heat formula. As this formula states that the heat energy required to raise the temperature of the body is directly proportional to the product of mass of the body, specific heat capacity of the material and temperature change experienced by the material.

So in this problem, the mass of the aluminium is given as m = 1500 g, the specific heat of the aluminium is 0.900 J/g °C. Then as it is stated that the temperature is raised by 100 °C, so the pots are heat to increase by 100 °C from its initial temperature. This means the difference in temperature will be 100°C (ΔT = 100°C).

Then, the heat energy required to raise the temperature will be

q = m*c*del T = 1500 * 0.900 * 100 = 135000 = 135 kJ

Thus, the heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1500 g of aluminium pot by 100 °C is 135 kJ.

Similarly, the mass of copper pot is given as 1500 g, the specific heat capacity of copper is 0.385 and the difference in temperature is 100  °C.

Then, the heat energy required to raise its temperature will be

q = m*c*del T = 1500 * 0.385 * 100 = 57750 = 57.75 kJ

And the heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1500 g of copper pot by 100°C is 57.75 kJ.

So, the heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1500 g of aluminium pot by 100°C is 135 kJ. And the heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1500 g of copper pot by 100 °C is 57.75 kJ.

Molecule A is a __________. Bonding of fatty acids and polar phosphate groups to glycerol. Molecule A is a __________. Bonding o
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The correct option is: c. phospholipid      

Explanation:

Phospholipids, also known as glycerophospholipids, are the derivatives of fatty acids which is a major structural component of the cell membranes.

Phospholipid is the class of lipids that is composed of a <u>glycerol molecule that forms ester bonds with the two long-chain fatty acids and one phosphate group.</u>

<u>Therefore, Molecule A is a </u><u>phospholipid.</u>
