How many aluminum atoms are there in a 15.1 gram soda can?

MariettaO [177]2 years ago

A soda can is made from aluminum metal. To determine how many atoms of this element is present in a certain mass of the can, we need to convert the mass into units of moles by using the atomic mass of aluminum which is 26.98 g per mol. Then, we use the Avogadro's number. It represents the number of units in one mole of any substance. This has the value of 6.022 x 10^23 units / mole. This number can be used to convert the number of atoms or molecules into number of moles or vice versa.

moles Al = 15.1 g Al ( 1 mol / 26.98 g ) = 0.56 mol Al
atoms Al = 0.56 mol Al ( 6.022x10^23 atoms / 1 mol ) = 3.32x10^23 atoms

OPTION A would be the closest.

Answer:

B) rough ER → Golgi complex → Golgi vesicle → extracellular fluid

Explanation:

  • Insulin is synhtesized by beta cells of pancereas (preproinsulin).
  • Insulin enters the rough endoplasmic reticulumn in its inactive form (proinsulin).
  • The rough endoplasmic reticulumn converts it to active form (insulin).
  • The rough endoplasmic reticulumn transfer the insulin to glogi comlpex
  • The Golgi complex secrete it in golgi vesicles to cytoplasm.
  • On the stimulation of beta cells insulin is secreted to extracellular fluid..

xeze [42]
The word "cycle" in cell cycle refers to the regular pattern of growth, DNA duplication, and cell division that occurs in eukaryotic cells.
The cell cycle is the term that describes the development and growth of a cell, after its formation and until its reproduction (division into two daughter cells). In eukaryotic cells (cells that include a nucleus) the cell cycle is comprised of two major phases, the interphase and the mitosis. During interphase, the cell grows larger and duplicates its genetic material. During mitosis, the cell divides its genetic material and cytoplasm, creating two daughter cells.

How do cells such as algae and protists avoid lysis in fresh water?
charle [14.2K]

The protists were able to avoid lysis by having its function of the contractile vacuole in which it helps in pumping the water which are enough or excess to get it out of the cell. While the algae avoids lysis was because of its cell wall that is rigid in nature.
