thermal contact

When heat flows from one object or substance to another it is in contact with, the objects or substances are said to be in thermal contact. The state where objects in thermal contact with each other reach the same temperature, no heat flows between them.

Acetyl-CoA labeled with 14C in both of its acetate carbon atoms is incubated with unlabeled oxaloacetate and a crude tissue prep

Bumek [7]

Answer:

a.all four carbon atoms.

Explanation:

Acetyl-CoA labeled with 14C in both of its acetate carbon atoms is incubated with unlabeled oxaloacetate and a crude tissue preparation capable of carrying out the reactions of the citric acid cycle. After one turn of the TCA cycle, oxaloacetate would have 14C in all four carbon atoms.

Which substance would have the highest melting point, based on electronegativity?

kenny6666 [7]

Water, H₂O, will have the highest melting point.

Explanation:

So here we have listed the hydrides of oxygen, sulphur, selenium and tellurium.

From this elements oxygen have the highest electronegativity and as a consequence the oxigen hydride (water, hydrogen dioxide) it is able to form hydrogen bonds between molecules. So you need more energy to overcome the interactions between molecules in water that for the other compounds.

Water, H₂O, will have the highest melting point between the listed hydrides.

If a chlor-alkali cell used a current of 3X10⁴A, how many pounds of Cl₂ would be produced in a typical 8-h operating day?

vova2212 [387]

7 × 10² pounds of Cl₂ would be produced in a typical 8-h operating day.

<h3>What is Stoichiometry ?</h3>

Stoichiometry helps us use the balanced chemical equation to measures quantitative relationships and it is to calculate the amount of products and reactants that are given in a reaction.

<h3>What is Balanced chemical equation ?</h3>

The balanced chemical equation is the equation in which the number of atoms on the reactants side is equal to the number of atoms on the product side in an equation.

2Cl⁻ (aq) → Cl (g) + 2e⁻

According to stoichiometry, moles of Cl₂

$= (3 \times 10^4\ A) \left (\frac{\frac{C}{s}}{A} \right ) \left (\frac{3600\ s}{h} \right ) (8h) \left (\frac{1\ \text{mol}\ e^{-}}{9.65 \times 10^4\ C} \right ) \left (\frac{1\ \text{mol}\ Cl_2}{2\ \text{mol}\ e^-} \right )$

= 4477 moles

Pounds Cl₂

$= (4477\ \text{moles}\ Cl_2) \left (\frac{70.90\ g\ Cl_2}{\text{mol}} \right ) \left (\frac{1\ kg}{1000\ g} \right ) \left (\frac{2.205\ lb}{1\ kg} \right )$
