One hour of bicycle racing can require 500-900 kcal of energy, depending on the speed of the race, the terrain, and the weight o

f the racer. Tour de France riders must consume abnormal amounts of food to supply this energy. Food in the form of protein or carbohydrates produces 17 kJ of energy per gram consumed. How many kilograms of protein or carbohydrate must be consumed to provide the energy for 170 minutes of racing that requires 650 kcal/hr.1 kcal = 4.184 kJ

Answer:

0.45 kg of protein of carbohydrates are required.

Explanation:

<em>How many kilograms of protein or carbohydrate must be consumed to provide the energy for 170 minutes of racing that requires 650 kcal/hr?</em>

Let's consider the following relations:

  • 17 kJ of energy are provided per gram of protein or carbohydrate (nutrient)
  • The required supply is 650 kcal per hour of ride.
  • 1 kcal is equal to 4.184 kJ
  • 1 hour is equal to 60 minutes.
  • 1 kg is equal to 10³ g

Then, for 170 minutes:

170min.\frac{1h}{60min} .\frac{650kcal}{1h} .\frac{4.184kJ}{1kcal} .\frac{1g(nutrient)}{17kJ} .\frac{1kg(nutrient)}{10^{3}g(nutrient) } =0.45kg(nutrient)

0.45 kg of protein of carbohydrates are required.

Phosphorous acid, H3PO3(aq), is a diprotic oxyacid that is an important compound in industry and agriculture. K pKa1 K pKa2 1.30
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

* Before addition of any KOH:

pH = 0,0301

*After addition of 25.0 mL KOH:

pH = 1,30

*After addition of 50.0 mL KOH:

pH = 2,87

*After addition of 75.0 mL KOH:

pH = 6,70

*After addition of 100.0 mL KOH:

pH = 10,7

Explanation:

H₃PO₃ has the following equilibriums:

H₃PO₃ ⇄ H₂PO₃⁻ H⁺

k = [H₂PO₃⁻] [H⁺] / [H₃PO₃] k = 10^-(1,30) <em>(1)</em>

H₂PO₃⁻ ⇄ HPO₃²⁻ + H⁺

k = [HPO₃²⁻] [H⁺] / [H₂PO₃⁻] k = 10^-(6,70) <em>(2)</em>

Moles of H₃PO₃ are:

0,0500L×(1,8mol/L) = 0,09 moles of H₃PO₃

* Before addition of any KOH:

Using (1), moles in equilibrium are:

H₃PO₃: 0,09-x

H₂PO₃⁻: x

H⁺: x

Replacing:

10^{-1.30} = \frac{x^2}{0.09-x}

4.51x10⁻³ - 0.050x -x² = 0

The right solution of x is:

x = 0.0466589

As volume is 0,050L

[H⁺] = 0.0466589moles / 0,050L = 0,933M

As pH = -log [H⁺]

<em>pH = 0,0301</em>

*After addition of 25.0 mL KOH:

0,025L×1,8M = 0,045 moles of KOH that reacts with H₃PO₃ thus:

KOH + H₃PO₃ → H₂PO₃⁻ + H₂O

That means moles of KOH will be the same of H₂PO₃⁻ and moles of H₃PO₃ are 0,09moles - 0,045moles = 0,045moles

Henderson-Hasselbalch formula is:

pH = pka + log₁₀ [A⁻] /[HA]

Where A⁻ is H₂PO₃⁻ and HA is H₃PO₃.

Replacing:

pH = 1,30 + log₁₀ [0,045mol] / [0,045mol]

<em>pH = 1,30</em>

*After addition of 50.0 mL KOH:

The addition of 50.0 mL KOH consume all H₃PO₃. Thus, in the solution you will have just H₂PO₃⁻. Thus, moles in solution for the equilibrium will be:

H₂PO₃⁻: 0,09-x

HPO₃²⁻: x

H⁺: x

Replacing:

10^{-6.70} = \frac{x^2}{0.09-x}

1.8x10⁻⁸ - 2x10⁻⁷x - x² = 0

The right solution of x is:

x = 0.000134064

As volume is 50,0mL + 50,0mL = 100,0mL

[H⁺] = 0.000134064moles / 0,100L = 1.34x10⁻³M

As pH = -log [H⁺]

<em>pH = 2,87</em>

*After addition of 75.0 mL KOH:

Applying Henderson-Hasselbalch formula you will have 0,045 moles of both H₂PO₃⁻ HPO₃²⁻ and pka: 6,70:

pH = 6,70 + log₁₀ [0,045mol] / [0,045mol]

<em>pH = 6,70</em>

*After addition of 100.0 mL KOH:

You will have just 0,09moles of HPO₃²⁻, the equilibrium will be:

HPO₃²⁻ + H₂O ⇄ H₂PO₃⁻ + OH⁻ with kb = kw/ka = 1x10⁻¹⁴/10^-(6,70) = 5,01x10⁻⁸

kb = [H₂PO₃⁻] [OH⁻] / [HPO₃²⁻]

Moles are:

H₂PO₃⁻: x

OH⁻: x

HPO₃²⁻: 0,09-x

Replacing:

5.01x10^{-8} = \frac{x^2}{0.09-x}

4.5x10⁻⁹ - 5.01x10⁻⁸x - x² = 0

The right solution of x is:

x = 0.000067057

As volume is 50,0mL + 100,0mL = 150,0mL

[OH⁻] = 0.000067057moles / 0,150L = 4.47x10⁻⁴M

As pH = 14-pOH; pOH = -log [OH⁻]

<em>pH = 10,7</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

A solution is prepared by mixing 50.0 mL of 0.50 M Cu(NO3)2 with 50.0 mL of 0.50 M Co(NO3)2. Sodium hydroxide is added to the mi
vekshin1

Answer:

Cu(OH)₂ will precipitate first, with [OH⁻] = 2.97x10⁻¹⁰ M

Explanation:

The equilibriums that take place are:

Cu⁺² + 2OH⁻ ↔ Cu(OH)₂(s)   ksp = 2.2x10⁻²⁰ = [Cu⁺²]*[OH⁻]²

Co⁺² + 2OH⁻ ↔ Co(OH)₂(s)   ksp = 1.3x10⁻¹⁵ = [Co⁺²]*[OH⁻]²

Keep in mind that <em>the concentration of each ion is halved </em>because of the dilution when mixing the solutions.

For Cu⁺²:

2.2x10⁻²⁰ = [Cu⁺²]*[OH⁻]²

2.2x10⁻²⁰ = 0.25 M*[OH⁻]²

[OH⁻] = 2.97x10⁻¹⁰ M

For Co⁺²:

1.3x10⁻¹⁵ = [Co⁺²]*[OH⁻]²

1.3x10⁻¹⁵ = 0.25 M*[OH⁻]²

[OH⁻] = 7.21x10⁻⁸ M

<u>Because Copper requires less concentration of OH⁻ than Cobalt</u>, Cu(OH)₂ will precipitate first, with [OH⁻] = 2.97x10⁻¹⁰ M

Respirometers were set up that contained yeast and 2% glucose solution. Each respirometer was placed at a different temperature.
Kitty [74]

Temperature is the independent variable in this experiment

Explanation:

A respirometer is a tool used to calculate the rate of breathing of a living organism by calculating the amount of exchange of oxygen and/or carbon dioxide.

When the yeast cells are given sugar in an aerobic (oxygen-containing) environment, then the yeast.

There would be an air bubble at the tip of the respirometer, and our dependent variable is the difference in the duration of the bubble, i.e. incubate in a warm water bath at body temperature (37 ° C) for about 20 minutes.
