Answer:

Plant cells need both chloroplasts and mitochondria because they perform both photosynthesis and cell respiration. Chloroplast converts light (solar) energy into chemical energy during photosynthesis, while mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell produces ATP- the energy currency of the cell during respiration..

The first step in industrial nitric acid production is the catalyzed oxidation of ammonia. Without a catalyst, a different react

Answer: The value of $K_{eq}$ is $4.84\times 10^{-5}$

Explanation:

We are given:

Initial moles of ammonia = 0.0280 moles

Initial moles of oxygen gas = 0.0120 moles

Volume of the container = 1.00 L

Concentration of a substance is calculated by:

$\text{Concentration}=\frac{\text{Number of moles}}{\text{Volume}}$

So, concentration of ammonia = $\frac{0.0280}{1.00}=0.0280M$

Concentration of oxygen gas = $\frac{0.0120}{1.00}=0.0120M$

The given chemical equation follows:

$4NH_3(g)+3O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2N_2(g)+6H_2O(g)$

Initial: 0.0280 0.0120

At eqllm: 0.0280-4x 0.0120-3x 2x 6x

We are given:

Equilibrium concentration of nitrogen gas = $3.00\times 10^{-3}M=0.003$

Evaluating the value of 'x', we get:

$\Rightarrow 2x=0.003\\\\\Rightarrow x=0.0015M$

Now, equilibrium concentration of ammonia = $0.0280-4x=[0.0280-(4\times 0.0015)]=0.022M$

Equilibrium concentration of oxygen gas = $0.0120-3x=[0.0120-(3\times 0.0015)]=0.0075M$

Equilibrium concentration of water = $6x=(6\times 0.0015)]=0.009M$

The expression of $K_{eq}$ for the above reaction follows:

$K_{eq}=\frac{[H_2O]^6\times [N_2]^2}{[NH_3]^4\times [O_2]^3}$

Putting values in above expression, we get:

$K_{eq}=\frac{(0.009)^6\times (0.003)^2}{(0.022)^4\times (0.0075)^3}\\\\K_{eq}=4.84\times 10^{-5}$

Hence, the value of $K_{eq}$ is $4.84\times 10^{-5}$

What causes hot air to rise, and cool air to sink?

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

hot air rises because gases expand as they heat up.When air heats up and expands,its density also increases.The warmer,less dense air effectively floats on top of the colder, dense air below it. This creates a buoyant force that causes warmer air to rise.

cold air sinks because it is heavier as its more dense ( because of closely packed molecules) soits harder for them to move and they absorb less energy. Also, gravity pulls on it more strongly.

Hope it helps :)

A sample of benzene was vaporized at 25◦C. When 37.5 kJ of heat was supplied, 95.0 g of the liquid benzene vaporized. What is th

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Enthalpy of vaporization = 30.8 kj/mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of benzene = 95.0 g

Heat evolved = 37.5 KJ

Enthalpy of vaporization = ?

Solution:

Molar mass of benzene = 78 g/mol

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 95 g/ 78 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.218 mol

Enthalpy of vaporization = 37.5 KJ/1.218 mol

Enthalpy of vaporization = 30.8 kj/mol
