Where does the aerobic respiration take place in a cell

1 answer:

5 0

aerobic respiration occurs in the MITOCHONDRIAL MATRIX or on the inside of the inner membrane of mitochondria (the "powerhouse" of the cell).

A 35.161 mg sample of a chemical known to contain only carbon, hydrogen, sulfur, and oxygen is put into a combustion analysis ap

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The empirical formulae is C6H12S02

Explanation:

1. First we need to obtain the mass of each element in the sample and compound formed

Carbon = (62.637 mg * 12.011 g/mol / 44.009 g/mol) = 17.094 mg of Carbon

Hydrogen = ( 25.641 mg * (2 *1..008 g/mol) / 18.015 g/mol) = 2.869 mg of Hydrogen

Sulphur = (13.54 mg * 32.066 g/mol / 64.066 g/mol) = 6.777 mg of Sulphur

2. Next is to determine the percentage composition. Here we divide the respective mass by the mass of the sample

Carbon = 17.094 / 35.161 * 100 = 48.62 %

Hydrogen = 2.869/ 35.161 *100 = 8.16 %

Sulphur = 6.777/ 31.321 *100 = 21.64 %

Oxygen = (100 - (48.62 + 8.16 + 21.64)) = 21.58 %

3. Next is to divide the mass assuming there are 100 mg by the respective atomic masses to obtain the number of moles

Carbon = 48.62 / 12.011 = 4.048 mol

Hydrogen = 8.16 / 1.008 = 8.095 mol

Sulphur = 21.64 / 32.066 = 0.675 mol

Oxygen = 21.58 / 16.000 = 1.348 mol

Next is to divide by the smallest value

Carbon = 4.048/ 0.675 =5.997 = 6

Hydrogen = 8.095 / 0.675 =11.993 =12

Sulphur = 0.675/ 0.675 = 1

Oxygen = 1.348 / 0.675 = 1.997 = 2

So therefore the empirical formulae of the sample is C6H12SO2

There are two steps in the usual industrial preparation of acrylic acid, the immediate precursor of several useful plastics. In

qaws [65]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

There are two steps in the usual industrial preparation of acrylic acid, the immediate precursor of several useful plastics. In the first step, calcium carbide and water react to form acetylene and calcium hydroxide:

$CaC_2(s)+2H_2O(g)\rightarrow C_2H_2(g)+Ca(OH)_2(s)$

In the second step, acetylene, carbon dioxide and water react to form acrylic acid:

$6C_2H_2(g)+3CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)\rightarrow 5CH_2CHCO_2H(g)$

Write the net chemical equation for the production of acrylic acid from calcium carbide, water and carbon dioxide. Be sure your equation is balanced.

Answer: The net chemical equation is written below.

Explanation:

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction are:

(1) $CaC_2(s)+2H_2O(g)\rightarrow C_2H_2(g)+Ca(OH)_2(s)$ ( × 6 )

(2) $6C_2H_2(g)+3CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)\rightarrow 5CH_2CHCO_2H(g)$

To omit acetylene from the net chemical reaction, we multiply Equation (1) by 6.

Equation 1: $6CaC_2(s)+12H_2O(g)\rightarrow 6C_2H_2(g)+6Ca(OH)_2(s)$

Equation 2: $6C_2H_2(g)+3CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)\rightarrow 5CH_2CHCO_2H(g)$

Net chemical equation: $6CaC_2(s)+3CO_2(g)+16H_2O(g)\rightarrow 5CH_2CHCO_2H(g)+6Ca(OH)_2(s)$

Hence, the net chemical equation is written above.

How are electrons excited and what happens when the electrons relax

serg [7]

When electrons are excited they get more energy and jump to higher orbitals. As they loose that energy that had excited them in the beginning, they tend to return to their original orbitals and the color that is given off is when this is occurring.

Calculate the molarity of 8.42 x 102 mL of solution containing 22.4 g of potassium iodide.

givi [52]

Answer:

Molarity = 0.154 M

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of solution = 8.42 × 10² mL ( 8.42 × 10² /1000 = 0.842 L)

Mass of potassium iodide = 22.4 g

Molarity of solution = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of potassium iodide:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 22.4 g/ 166.0 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.13 mol

Molarity:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in L

Molarity = 0.13 mol / 0.842 L

Molarity = 0.154 M
