During photosynthesis, sunlight shining on a plant is absorbed. Through several chemical reactions, the plant produces sugar, a

high-energy compound, from simpler substances.
What energy transformation occurs during this process?

The change is thermal energy to chemical energy.  Sugar contains a lot of chemical potential energy which is why living things use it as a source of energy.  The process of photo synthesis takes light from the sun to convert carbon dioxide and water into sugar and oxygen.  That process is basically turning the thermal energy from the light into chemical energy in the sugar.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

In the first step of glycolysis, the given two reactions are coupled. reaction 1:reaction 2:glucose+Pi⟶glucose-6-phosphate+H2OAT
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: Reaction 1 is non spontaneous.

Explanation:

According to Gibb's equation:

\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S

\Delta G = Gibbs free energy  

\Delta H = enthalpy change

\Delta S = entropy change  

T = temperature in Kelvin

When \Delta G = +ve, reaction is non spontaneous

\Delta G= -ve, reaction is spontaneous

\Delta G= 0, reaction is in equilibrium

For the given reaction 1: glucose+Pi\rightarrow glucose-6-phosphate+H_2O \Delta G=+13.8kJ/mol

As for the reaction 1 , the value of Gibbs free energy is positive and thus the reaction 1 is non spontaneous.

. Calculate the mass of O2 produced if 3.450 g potassium chlorate is completely decomposed by heating in presence of a catalyst
Vesnalui [34]
 <span>2 KClO3(s) → 3 O2(g) + 2 KCl(s) 

</span><span>Note: MnO2 (Manganese Dioxide) is not part of the reaction. A catalyst lowers the activation energy and increases both forward and reverse reactions at equal rates. 
</span>
molar mass of KClO3 = 122.5
Moles of KClO3 =  3.45 / 122.55 = 0.028

Moles of O2 produce = \frac{3}{2} \times 0.028

= 0.042 moles

molar mass of O2 = 32

so, mass of O2 = 32 x 0.042  = 1.35 g

A sample of element X contains 90% X-35 atoms, 8.0% X-37 atoms, and 2.0% X-38 atoms. The average atomic mass will be closest to
Ne4ueva [31]

To find average atomic mass you multiply the mass of each isotope by its percentage, and then add the values up.

35 * 0.90 + 37 * 0.08 + 38 * 0.02 = 35.22

Average atomic mass closest to 35.22 amu.

During a combustion reaction, 9.00 grams of oxygen reacted with 3.00 grams of CH4.
Monica [59]

Answer:

0.74 grams of methane

Explanation:

The balanced equation of the combustion reaction of methane with oxygen is:

  • CH₄ + 2 O₂ → CO₂ + 2 H₂O

it is clear that 1 mol of CH₄ reacts with 2 mol of O₂.

firstly, we need to calculate the number of moles of both

for CH₄:

number of moles = mass / molar mass = (3.00 g) /  (16.00 g/mol) = 0.1875 mol.

for O₂:

number of moles = mass / molar mass = (9.00 g) /  (32.00 g/mol) = 0.2812 mol.

  • it is clear that O₂ is the limiting reactant and methane will leftover.

using cross multiplication

1 mol of  CH₄ needs → 2 mol of O₂

???  mol of  CH₄  needs → 0.2812 mol of O₂

∴ the number of mol of CH₄ needed = (0.2812 * 1) / 2 = 0.1406 mol

so 0.14 mol will react and the remaining CH₄

mol of CH₄ left over = 0.1875 -0.1406 = 0.0469 mol

now we convert moles into grams

mass of CH₄ left over = no. of mol of CH₄ left over *  molar mass

                                    = 0.0469 mol * 16 g/mol = 0.7504 g

So, the right choice is 0.74 grams of methane

Complete the equation for the dissociation of cdcl2(aq). omit water from the equation because it is understood to be present.
mixas84 [53]
Cadmium chloride is a highly soluble compound. The equation for its dissolution is:

CdCl₂(s) → Cd⁺²(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq)

This dissociation in water allows for the cadmium and chlorine ions to take part in reactions. This is the reason that solutions of chemicals are prepared when a reaction needs to take place.
