A molecule that temporarily stores energy for cellular activity in all living organisms. ATP is composed of an adenine, a sugar molecule, and a chai of three negatively charged phosphate groups. ... A typ of potential energy in which energy is stored in chemical bonds between atoms or molecules.

So the energy from cellular respiration is stored in the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate groups of ATP. When the cell needs energy to do work, ATP loses its 3rd phosphate group, releasing energy stored in the bond that the cell can use to do work.

Given the following values for the heats of formation, what is the number of moles of ethane (C2H6, MW 30.0) required to produce

baherus [9]

Answer:

0.641 moles of ethane

Explanation:

Based on the equation:

C2H6(g) + 7/2O2(g) → 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(l)

We can determine ΔH of reaction using Hess's law. For this equation:

<em>Hess's law: ΔH products - ΔH reactants</em>

ΔH = {2ΔHCO2 + 3ΔHH2O} - {ΔHC2H6}

<em>Pure monoatomic substances have a ΔH = 0kJ/mol; ΔHO2 = 0kJ/mol</em>

<em />

ΔH = {2*-393.5kJ/mol + 3*-285.8kJ/mol} - {-84.7kJ/mol}

ΔH = -1559.7kJ/mol

That means when 1 mole of ethane is in combustion there are released 1559.7kJ of heat. To produce 1.00x10³kJ there are needed:

1.00x10³kJ * (1mole ethane / 1559.7kJ) =

<h3>0.641 moles of ethane</h3>
