Function of leaf in points​
klasskru [66]

Explanation:

The main function of a leaf is to produce food for the plant by photosynthesis. Chlorophyll, the substance that gives plants their characteristic green colour, absorbs light energy.

  • Photosynthesis.
  • Transpiration.
  • Guttation.
  • Storage.
  • Defense.

I will be describing what each of these do to the plant.

  • <u>Photosynthesis: </u>Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities.
  • <u>Transpiration</u>: Transpiration is the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers. Water is necessary for plants but only a small amount of water taken up by the roots is used for growth and metabolism. The remaining 97–99.5% is lost by transpiration and guttation.
  • <u>Guttation</u>: Guttation is the exudation of drops of xylem sap on the tips or edges of leaves of some vascular plants, such as grasses, and a number of fungi. Guttation is not to be confused with dew, which condenses from the atmosphere onto the plant surface. Guttation generally happens during the night time.
  • <u>Storage</u>: A storage organ is a part of a plant specifically modified for storage of energy (generally in the form of carbohydrates) or water. Storage organs often grow underground, where they are better protected from attack by herbivores.
  • <u>Defense</u>: The first line of defense in plants is an intact and impenetrable barrier composed of bark and a waxy cuticle. Both protect plants against herbivores. Other adaptations against herbivores include hard shells, thorns (modified branches), and spines (modified leaves).

<u>Hope this helps!</u>

At 63.5 C the vapor pressure of H2O is 175 torr and that of ethanol is 400 torr. A solution is made by adding equal masses of H2
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Moel fraction of ethanol in the solution = 0.28

Vapor pressure of the solution = 238 torr

Mole fraction of ethanol in the vapor = 0.47

Explanation:

Let's use 100 g of each substance as a calculus basis. Knowing that the molar mass of water is 18 g/mol and the molar mass of ethanol is 46 g/mol, the number of moles (n = mass/molar mass) of each one is:

nw = 100/18 = 5.56 mol

ne= 100/46 = 2.17 mol

The total number of moles is 7.73 mol, so the mole fraction of ethanol is

2.17/7.73 = 0.28

The mole fraction of water must be 0.72, so if we assume that the solution is ideal, by the Raoult's law, the solution vapor pressure is the sum of the multiplication of the mole fraction by the vapor pressure of each substance, thus:

P = 0.28*400 + 0.72*175

P = 238 torr

The partial pressure of each substance can be found by the multiplication of the molar fraction by the vapor pressure, thus:

Pw = 0.72*175 = 126 torr

Pe = 0.28*400 = 112 torr

To know the number of moles that is vaporized above the solution, we may use the ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

P/n = RT/V

R is the gas constant, T is the temperature and V is the volume, so they are the same for both water and ethanol, thus

Pw/nw = Pe/ne

126/nw = 112/ne

ne = (112/126)*nw

ne = 0.89nw

So, the mole fraction of ethanol is:

ne/(ne + nw) = 0.89nw/(0.89nw + nw) = 0.89/1.89 = 0.47

The powder could be acetaminophen, analgesic  having chemical formula C_{17}H_{21}NO_{4}

<h3>What is an empirical formula?</h3>

A chemical formula showing the simplest ratio of elements in a compound rather than the total number of atoms in the molecule.

We are given:

Percentage of C = 67.31 %

Percentage of H = 6.978 %

Percentage of N = 4.617 %

Percentage of O = 21.10 %

Let the mass of the compound be 100 g. So, the percentages given are taken as mass.

Mass of C = 67.31 g

Mass of H = 6.978 g

Mass of N = 4.617 g

Mass of O = 21.10 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of carbon = \frac{mass}{molar \;mass}

Moles of carbon =\frac{67.31g}{12g/mole}

=5.60 moles

Moles of hydrogen = \frac{mass}{molar \;mass}

Moles of hydrogen = \frac{6.978 g}{1 g/mole}

=6.978 moles

Moles of nitrogen =\frac{mass}{molar \;mass}

Moles of nitrogen = \frac{4.617  g}{14 g/mole}

=0.329 moles

Moles of oxygen =\frac{mass}{molar \;mass}

Moles of oxygen =\frac{21.10 g}{16 g/mole}

=1.31 moles

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.329 moles.

We get the ratio of C : H : N : O = 17 : 21 : 1 : 4

The empirical formula for the given compound is C_{17}H_{21}NO_{4}.
