Answer:

6.074 X 10¹⁸ molecules.

Explanation:

Molecular mass(MM) of this compound C₂₇H₄₆O

= 27*(MM of C) + 46*(MM of H) + (MM of O)

= 27*(12.0107) + 46* (1.00784) + (15.999)

= 324.2889 + 46.36064 + 15.999

=386.64854 g

The mass of a mole of any compound is called it's molar mass. 1 molar mass has 6.022 X 10²³, or Avogadro's number, C₂₇H₄₆O molecules.

If 386.64854 g of C₂₇H₄₆O has 6.022 X 10²³ molecules of  cholesterol, then

3.9mg or 0.0039g of C₂₇H₄₆O will have how many molecules?..

Using unitary method:

Number of molecules = \frac{0.0039 * 6.022 *10^{23} }{386.64854}

= 6.074 X 10¹⁸ molecules.

Which of the following is a correctly written chemical equation that demonstrates the conservation of mass?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Option D is correct.

H₂O + CO₂      →    H₂CO₃

Explanation:

First of all we will get to know what law of conservation of mass states.

According to this law, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

This law was given by French chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Example:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.

Now we will apply this law to given chemical equations:

A) H₂ + O₂   →    H₂O

There are two hydrogen and two oxygen atoms present on left side while on right side only one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms are present so mass in not conserved. This equation not follow the law of conservation of mass.

B) Mg + HCl   →   H₂ + MgCl₂

In this equation one Mg, one H and one Cl atoms are present on left side while on right side two hydrogen, one Mg and two chlorine atoms are present. This equation also not follow the law of conservation of mass.

C) KClO₃      →     KCl + O₂

There are one K, one Cl and three O atoms are present on left side of chemical equation while on right side one K one Cl and two oxygen atoms are present. This equation also not following the law of conservation of mass.

D)  H₂O + CO₂      →    H₂CO₃

There are two hydrogen, one carbon and three oxygen atoms are present on both side of equation thus, mass remain conserved. Thus is correct option.

Mr. Smith is hyperglycemic with a blood glucose level of 300mg/ml of blood. Explain how homeostasis would regulate his glucose l
aleksley [76]

Answer:

When the animal has eaten food and the blood glucose level in the body increases. The pancreas cells in the body detects the increase in the blood glucose which leads to increase the insulin hormone.

This decreases the blood glucose level in the level. This is how the negative feedback works in the body if the level of glucose increases.

Negative feedback is the way by which the body maintains homeostasis and maintains equilibrium in the body.

What is the amount of heat released by 1.00 gram of liquid water at 0°C when it changes to 1.00 gram of ice at 0°C?
QveST [7]

Answer:

334J/g

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Mass (m) = 1g

Specific heat of Fusion (Hf) = 334 J/g

Heat (Q) =?

Using the equation Q = m·Hf, we can obtain the heat released as follow:

Q = m·Hf

Q = 1 x 334

Q = 334J

Therefore, the amount of heat released is 334J
