Let's note that 1 pint = 473.1765 mL, so 11 pints should be 5204.9415 mL.

We make a proportion out of the word problem

(85 mg glucose/ 100 mL) times (1 g/ 1000 mg) = 4.4242 grams of glucose

frosja888 [35]
Specific heat means the amount heat needed when unit mass of a substrate increase one degree of temperature. So the specific heat = the heat absorbed/(the mass of the substrate * change in temperature) = 264.4/(16*35)=0.472 J/(g*℃)

The Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) sets a limit for mercury-a toxin to the central nervous system-at 0.002 mg/L. Water suppliers
posledela

Answer:

The volume of mercury-contaminated water that has to be consumed to ingest 0.100 g mercury is 2.50 × 10⁴ l

Explanation:

Hi there!

First, let´s convert 0.100 g to mg:

0.100 g · (1000 mg/1 g) = 100 mg

The contaminated water has 0.004 mg per liter, then, we have to find the volume of water that contains 100 mg of mercury:

100 mg · (1 l / 0.004 mg) = 2.50 × 10⁴ l

Then, the volume of mercury-contaminated water ( at a concentration of 0.004 mg/l) that has to be consumed to ingest 0.100 g mercury is 2.50 × 10⁴ l

Have a nice day!

In a voltaic cell made of a Ag strip and an Al strip immersed in 1.0 M aqueous AgNO_3 and Al(NO_3)_3 solutions, respectively, wi
Tema [17]

Answer:

When the operation of the voltaic cell, which is formed of an aluminum and silver strip takes place, the atom of aluminum loses three of its electrons and the Al3+ formed moves within the solution. The Al3+ ion gets dissolved within the solution and the electrons lost in the process moves through the wire and get acquired by the ions of silver, which then get reduced to solid Ag resulting in the mass gain of silver strip.

alexdok [17]

Answer:

1) Conversion of glucose to glucose 6-phosphate by hexokinase

2) Conversion of fructose 6-phosphate to fructose 1,6-biphosphate by phosphofructokinase

3) Conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate by pyruvate kinase

Explanation:

There are 10 steps in the glycolysis pathway, three of which are irreversible. The enzymes controlling these reactions have not only catalytic properties but the irreversibility of the reaction gives them regulatory properties as well.  These reactions serve as control points in the pathway.
