romanna [79]

Answer:

Respiration might occur in the presence and absence of oxygen known as the aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration. The ATP molecules are produced more in number in aerobic respiration.

The yeast has the ability to undergo the process of anaerobic respiration and its end product are alcohol, carbon dioxide and 2 moles of ATP. The yeast is grown on maltose medium but unable to produce alcohol because of the presence of oxygen in the medium. The oxygen might acts as poison or inhibit the process of anaerobic respiration.

How would you test a colorless crystalline compound to determine if it was a hydrate?

Cloud [144]

A hydrate is a substance where in it contains water and other constituent elements. To know whether if that compound was a hydrate,you should record its mass, then put it in a test tube and heat it with a Bunsen burner. If the compound is a hydrate, the water in the compound will discharge in the form of water vapor. At the next 5-10 minutes, remove it in the test tube and weigh it up again. If the mass is now fewer, that means that there was water existing that has now evaporated, and the compound was a hydrate.

Liquid hexane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 6.9 g of hexane is mi

MrRa [10]

Answer:

There, there are no leftover for C6H14 instead, an additional mass of 4g of C6H14 is needed to completely react with 38.4g of O2.

Explanation:

Step 1:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is shown below:

2C6H14 + 19O2 —> 12CO2 + 14H2O

Step 2:

Let us calculate the masses of C6H14 and O2 that reacted from the balanced equation. This is illustrated below:

2C6H14 + 19O2 —> 12CO2 + 14H2O

Molar Mass of C6H14 = (12x6) + (14x1) = 72 + 14 = 86g/mol

Mass of C6H14 from the balanced equation = 2 x 86 = 172g

Molar Mass of O2 = 16x2 =32g/mol

Mass of O2 from the balanced equation = 19 x 32 = 608g

From the balanced equation above, 172g of C6H14 reacted with 608g of O2.

Step 3.

Now, let us determine the mass of C6H14 that will react with 38.4 g of oxygen. This is illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above, 172g of C6H14 reacted with 608g of O2.

Therefore, Xg of C6H14 will react with 38.4g of O2 i.e

Xg of C6H14 = (172 x 38.4) /608

Xg of C6H14 = 10.9g

From the calculations made above, we can see clearly that the mass of C6H14 is limited as the reaction requires 10.9g of C6H14 and only 6.9g was given. There, there are no leftover for C6H14 instead, an additional mass ( 10.9 - 6.9 = 4g) of 4g of C6H14 is needed to completely react with 38.4g of O2.
