How is a battery and a banana the same when considering energy?
emmainna [20.7K]

A battery and a banana are the same when considering energy:

A battery when connected to a device produces electro-chemical reactions and contains one or more cells. The same thing can be tried out with fruits also. There are many fruits which can be taken into account. A lemon shows less amount of voltage when seen through a multimeter rather than a banana which shows a higher voltage. This was because of the acid present in the a fully ripped banana. The acid is called ascorbic acid. This acid has a higher pH level than compared to the pH of the citric acid found in lemon.  

This shows that a banana plant is not so expensive and reliable for the production of renewable energy and a battery is also inexpensive, reliable and stable.

13.3 g of benzene (C6H6) is dissolved in 282 g of carbon tetrachloride. What is the molal concentration of benzene in this solut
Verizon [17]

Answer:

0.605 molal

Explanation:

molality is the amount of solute in a particular mass of solvent.

lets calculate the amount of benzene solute.

mass of benzene= 13.3g

molar mass of C6H6= 12*6 +1*6 =72+7=78g/mol

amount of benzene= mass/molar mass

                           =13.3/78

                          =0.1705mol

molality= amount of solute/mass of solvent in kg

mass of solvent=282g=0.282kg

molality = 0.1705/0.282

    =0.605 molal
