Response:
How can you differentiate a physical change from a chemical change?
Clarification:
Answer:
Mitochondria are plentiful in mammalian cells, with their proportions varying across different tissues, from less than 1% in white blood cells to as high as 35% in heart muscle cells. It is essential to understand that mitochondria are not static structures but instead form a dynamic network that frequently undergoes processes of fission and fusion. In skeletal muscle, they exist as part of a reticular membrane network. The two subpopulations, subsarcolemmal (SS) and intermyofibrillar (IMF) mitochondria, occupy different subcellular regions and exhibit slight differences in their biochemical and functional characteristics tied to their anatomical context. The SS mitochondria are positioned just beneath the sarcolemma, while IMF mitochondria are found closely associated with myofibrils. Their distinct properties likely play a role in their adaptability. SS mitochondria make up about 10-15% of the total mitochondrial volume and are believed to be more adaptable than their IMF counterparts, despite the latter displaying higher levels of protein synthesis, enzyme activity, and respiration (1).
Explanation:
At standard temperature and pressure, it is established that 1 mole of gas has a volume of 22.4 liters.
According to the periodic table:
the molar mass of oxygen is 16 g
and the molar mass of hydrogen is 1 g
Hence, the molar mass of water vapor is calculated as 2(1) + 16 = 18 g
Thus, 18 g of water occupies 22.4 liters, therefore:
the volume for 32.7 g is (32.7 x 22.4) / 18 = 40.6933 liters
Answer:
The heat capacity of the calorimeter is
= 54.4 
Explanation:
Given the data
Heat supplied Q = 4.168 KJ = 4168 J
Mass of water
= 75.40 gm
Change in temperature = ΔT = 35.82 - 24.58 = 11.24 °C
From the conditions provided
Q =
ΔT +
ΔT
Plugging all values into the above equation yields
4168 = 75.70 × 4.18 × 11.24 +
× 11.24
611.37 =
× 11.24
= 54.4 
This represents the heat capacity of the calorimeter.
