Answer:

simple

Explanation:

The glow stick's outer plastic tube holds a solution of an oxalate ester and an electron-rich dye along with a glass vial filled with a hydrogen peroxide solution. ... Glow sticks light up when oxalate esters react with hydrogen peroxide to form a high-energy intermediate

A 1.00 g sample of octane (C8H18) is burned in a bomb calorimeter with a heat capacity of 837J∘C that holds 1200. g of water at

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

The heat of combustion for 1.00 mol of octane is -5485.7 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of octane = 1.00 grams

Heat capacity of calorimeter = 837 J/°C

Mass of water = 1200 grams

Temperature of water = 25.0°C

Final temperature : 33.2 °C

Step 2: Calculate heat absorbed by the calorimeter

q = c*ΔT

⇒ with c = the heat capacity of the calorimeter = 837 J/°C

⇒ with ΔT = The change of temperature = T2 - T1 = 33.2 - 25.0 : 8.2 °C

q = 837 * 8.2 = 6863.4 J

Step 3: Calculate heat absorbed by the water

q = m*c*ΔT

⇒ m = the mass of the water = 1200 grams

⇒ c = the specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

⇒ ΔT = The change in temperature = T2 - T1 = 33.2 - 25 = 8.2 °C

q = 1200 * 4.184 * 8.2 = 41170.56 J

Step 4: Calculate the total heat

qcalorimeter + qwater = 6863.4 + 41170. 56 = 48033.96 J = 48 kJ

Since this is an exothermic reaction, there is heat released. q is positive but ΔH is negative.

Step 5: Calculate moles of octane

Moles octane = 1.00 gram / 114.23 g/mol

Moles octane = 0.00875 moles

Step 6: Calculate heat combustion for 1.00 mol of octane

ΔH = -48 kJ / 0.00875 moles

ΔH = -5485.7 kJ/mol

The heat of combustion for 1.00 mol of octane is -5485.7 kJ/mol

In the early twentieth century, what was Alexander Fleming’s hypothesis concerning the relationship between a yellow-green mold

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option c)He thought the mold had released a chemical that prevented the bacteria’s growth.

Explanation:

In the 1920s, Alexander Fleming was working in his laboratory at St. Mary's Hospital in London when, almost by accident, he discovered a naturally growing substance that could attack certain bacteria. In one of his experiments, Fleming observed that colonies of a bacterium had been depleted or removed by a mold that grew on the same Petri dish. He observed that the bacteria furthest from the fungus had grown to produce large-sized colonies, while the colonies closest to the fungus were tiny. He determined that mold made a substance that could dissolve bacteria. The fungus was penicilium chrysogenum and thus Fleming called this substance penicillin, by the name of the mold that produces it. Thus, after several years of experiments in 1930, Howard Florey and Ernest Chain developed at Oxford University the procedures to produce pure penicillin from the fungus that Fleming isolated. Thus penicillin could be concentrated by Florey and Chain, and in 1945 they shared with Fleming the Nobel Prize in Medicine.

Then, the correct answer is the option c)He thought the mold had released a chemical that prevented the bacteria’s growth.
