For a reaction, Delta H is negative and Delta S is positive. Is this reaction spontaneous? Explain. For the reaction C(s) + CO_2(g) \to 2CO(g), would you expect \Delta S to be positive or negative? Explain why. Which of the reactions have a positive \Delta S_{r...
Explain how a voltaic cell works. Be sure to mention the various parts of the voltaic cell and what they have to do with how it works. What is nuclear resonance? Explain in brief. Explain why the production of gas does not always mean a chemical reaction has occurred. ...
Answer to: Explain why it is important for a bacterial cell to be able to turn on the synthesis of a substance it needs only under some...

Fisher4 and Kolmogorov et al.5 simultaneously derived the following reaction-diffusion equation $$\frac{\partial N}{\partial t}=D\,{\nabla }^{2}N+F(N),$$ (1) where t is the time, \(N\) the population density (of Neolithic individuals in our case), \(D\) its diffusion coeffic...
Illustrate how monosaccharides form disaccharides by dehydration synthesis, by creating a diagram of the reaction between glucose and fructose, which yields sucrose. Be sure to show how water is formed. Illustrate how disaccharides decompose form monosaccharid...
is not substantial O2in the atmosphere of Venus, we assume that hypothetical Venusian life would have evolved to utilise the abundant SO2in the atmosphere in an analogous fashion to terrestrial oxygenic life’s respiration of atmospheric O2. The net metabolic reaction for metabolism A is therefore:...
That might sound likeonequestion, but it's really several. First, there's the matter of whether it'stechnically possibleto build a robot that compares with a human. But there's also a much bigger question ofwhyyou'd want to do that and whether it's even a useful thing to do. When...
We know that air pollution is linked to wellbeing, but we do not understand to any great extent why. In contrast, it is common within epidemiological research to investigate the pathways from EQ to health outcomes. In particular, a number of studies have explored behavioural mediators of the ...
Acidity is a property of a given atom or functional group that determines how well the group can stabilize a charge that will be present upon the donation of electrons from a Lewis base. The more stable the conjugate base of the acid is, the more acidic the compound....
