Answer: hope this is hopeful

Explanation:

1.So, potassium atom is bigger than sodium atom.

2.Sodium: The valence electron of sodium is in the 3s orbital. Potassium: The valence electron of potassium is in the 4s orbital. Atomic Size. Sodium: Sodium atom is

3. • While excess of sodium is harmful for us, low levels of potassium have also been found to be associated with certain disorders of lungs and heart.

The specific heat of palladium is 0.239 J/g°C. How much heat (q) is released when a 10.0 g piece of platinum cools from 100.0°C

Andrej [43]

Answer:

119.5 J

Explanation:

First we calculate the temperature difference:

ΔT = 100 °C - 50 °C = 50 °C

Then we can calculate the heat released by using the following formula:

q = Cp * ΔT * m

Where q is the heat, Cp is the specific heat, ΔT is the temperature difference and m is the mass.

We input the data:

q = 0.239 J/g°C * 50 °C * 10.0 g

q = 119.5 J

If one contraction cycle in muscle requires 55 kJ55 kJ , and the energy from the combustion of glucose is converted with an effi

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

18 moles

Explanation:

Here the combustion of one mole of glucose ----> carbon dioxide + water, releases 2870 kilojoules / moles.

_______________________________________________________

With one contraction cycle requiring 55 kilojoules,

2870 / 55 ≈ 52.18

And with the efficiency being 35 percent,

52.1818..... * 0.35 = ( About ) 18 moles

Hope that helps!
