The yeast in bread dough feeds on sugar to produce carbon dioxide. Why does the dough rise faster in a warmer area?
(a) There is a greater number of effective collisions among the reacting molecules.
(b) Atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing temperature.
(c) The yeast tends to “wake up” with warmer temperatures, which is why baker’s yeast is best stored in the refrigerator.
(d) The rate of evaporation increases with increasing temperature.

- A woman expends 95 kJ of energy walking a kilometer. The energy is supplied by the metabolic breakdown of food, which has an efficiency of 35 percent. How much energy does she save by walking the kilometer instead of driving a car that gets 8.2 km per liter of gasoline (approximately 20 mi/gal)? The density of gasoline is 0.71 g/mL, and its enthalpy of combustion is −49 kJ/g.arrow_forwardyeasts are able to produce high internal concentrations of glycerol to counteract the osmotic pressure of the surrounding media. suppose that a sample of yeast cells were placed in a 4% sodium chloride solution by weight. The density of solution is at 25 C = 1.02 g/ml, Molecular weight of solute = 58.44 g/mol, i of glycerol = 1 R=0.08205 L-atm/mol-K What is the weight of solute (in grams)? What is the moles of solute? What is the volume of the solution (in liters)? What is the molarity of the solution? What is the value of the temperature to be used to solve for the osmotic pressure of the solution? What is the osmotic pressure of solution At the same temperature, what will be the molar concentration of glycerol considering the computed osmotic pressure of the solution and the normal osmotic pressure inside a yeast cell of 7.3 atmospheres?arrow_forwardFor divers going to great depths, the composition of the air in the tank must be modified. The ideal composition is to have approximately the same number of O2 molecules per unit volume as in surface air (to avoid oxygen poisoning), and to use helium instead of nitrogen for the remainder of the gas (to avoid nitrogen narcosis, which results from nitrogen dissolving in the bloodstream). Of the molecules in dry surface air, 78.0% are N2, 21.0% are O2, and 1.00% are Ar. (Assume that the density of seawater is 1025 kg/m3 and the temperature is 20.0°C.) Density of dry air at 20.0°C is 1.20 kg/m3. Molar mass of N2 is 14.007 g/mol, O2 is 15.999 g/mol, and Ar is 39.948 g/mol. For a diver going to a depth of 141 m, what percentage of the gas molecules in the tank should be O2?arrow_forward
- Long-term space missions require reclamation of the oxygen in the carbon dioxide exhaled by the crew. In one method of reclamation, 1.00 mol of carbon dioxide produces 1.00 mol of oxygen, with 1.00 mol of methane as a by-product. The methane is stored in a tank under pressure and is available to control the attitude of the spacecraft by controlled venting. A single astronaut exhales 1,08 kg of carbon dioxide each day. If the methane generated in the recycling of three astronauts' respiration during one week of flight is stored in an originally empty 165-L tank at -45.0°C, what is the final pressure in the tank? MPa Need Help? Readarrow_forwardLet us consider a bacterial cell that depends on chemical reactions using oxygen to produce energy. The cell needs to obtain molecular oxygen from the extra-cellular medium by diffusion through the cell membrane. We model the cell as a water-filled sphere of radius 1 µm. This means that we neglect the presence of the internal structures of the cell: nucleus, nutrients, etc. The oxygen diffusion coefficient (O2) in water at 25°C is 1.0x10-5 cm².s'. Figure 1: Transmission electron microscope Reminder: The distance travelled by diffusion can be picture of a bacterium. [from Wikipedia: written as L(t) = V6Dt, where D is the diffusion coefficient and t the diffusion time. "Transmission Electron Microscopy"| 2. Diffusion as a function of time People have measured the distance travelled by the oxygen molecule in water as a function of time. The results are given in the table below. 0.1 t(s) L (x10-“m) log1o(t) log10(L) 0.001 0.005 0.01 0.05 2.45 5.4 7.7 17.3 25.5 Draw the plot of L as a…arrow_forwardThe most dangerous particles in polluted air are those with diameters less than 2.5 μm because they can penetrate deeply into the lungs. A 15-cm-tall closed container holds a sample of polluted air containing many spherical particles with a diameter of 2.5 μm and a mass of 2.6 x 10-14 kg. How long does it take for all of the particles to settle to the bottom of the container?arrow_forward
- Two large tanks, each holding 100L of liquid, are interconnected by pipes, with the liquid flowing from tank A into tank B at a rate of 3L/min and from B into A at a rate of 1L/min. The liquid inside each tank is kept well stirred. A brine solution with a concentration of 0.1kg/L of salt flows into tank A at a rate of 6L/min. The (diluted) solution flows out of the system from tank A at 4L/min and from tank B at 2L/min. If initially, tank A contains pure water and tank B contains 10kg of salt, determine the mass of salt in each tank at time t≥0. What is the solution to the system? x(t)= y(t)=arrow_forwardNitrogen, the most abundant gas in the atmosphere (78%), is not necessary in the cardiovascular system and it causes no harm under typical atmospheric conditions. For instance, at standard atmospheric pressure nitrogen can absorb into your skin. This is not an issue until you dive underwater. Henry's Law (chemistry) states that the amount of gas that dissolves in a liquid is directly proportional to the gas' partial pressure. When the partial pressure of nitrogen increases, it will be absorbed into the blood stream. This is not particularly dangerous, although it can lead to a pleasant feeling called "nitrogen narcosis" in some people. The real danger is when the diver resurfaces. When the diver begins to ascend, the partial pressure of nitrogen decreases and nitrogen comes out of solution as small bubbles of gas in the bloodstream. The buildup of nitrogen can be removed from the body by passing nitrogen through the bloodstream and into the lungs where it is exhaled. However, this…arrow_forwardThe rate at which a resting person converts food energy is called one’s basal metabolic rate (BMR). Assume that the resulting internal energy leaves a person’s body by radiation and convection of dry air. When you jog, most of the food energy you burn above your BMR becomes internalenergy that would raise your body temperature if it were not eliminated. Assume that evaporation of perspiration is the mechanism for eliminating this energy. Suppose a person is jogging for “maximum fat burning,” converting food energy at the rate 400 kcal/h above his BMR, and putting out energy by work at the rate 60.0 W. Assume that the heat of evaporation of water at body temperature is equal to its heat of vaporization at 100°C. (a) Determine the hourly rate at which water must evaporate from his skin. (b) When you metabolize fat, the hydrogen atoms in the fat molecule are transferred to oxygen to form water. Assume that metabolism of 1.00 g of fat generates 9.00 kcal of energy and produces 1.00 g of…arrow_forward
- Calculate the osmotic pressure of a 5% urea solution at a temperature of 273 K. Note that the molecular weight of urea (/60g) is the osmotic pressure of a solution obtained by mixing 100ml of a 4.5% solution of urea and 100ml of a 3.42% solution of sugar solution at a temperature of 300K. Suppose that 1 = 0arrow_forwardYou toss two six-sided dice. What is the total number of ways in which you can obtain the following? (a) a 6 (b) an 11 What If?

(a) so that the owner can determent whether there is enough air in the container (b) so that plants know when it is day or night, because they prefer to grow during the day (c) because plants need access to an energy source in order to produce sugars and oxygen (d) Because you wouldn’t able to look at your plants if the container wasn’t cleararrow_forward
