Document Summary

1pw = 1015; 1 w = 1j/s. Biomass from photosynthesis has potential to produce 90 tw of power. Glucose c6h12o6 - a most prominent sugar, Sugars can undergo chemical reactions to a variety of other compounds. The amount of biomass can be improved through use of fertilizers and pesticides. Products - newly formed compounds, right side (substance dissolved in water) = aq. Soldid = (s), liquid = (l), gaseous = (g), aqueous. Reactions that take place in water are said to take place in aqueous solution. Solution - homogeneous mixture of two or more substances. Solvent: solution component present in greatest amount. Solute: solution component present in lesser amount. For solutions, the concentration is a key piece of information. Insoluble compounds do not dissolve readily in water. Curtiss 0127 - danniel arriaga - section 2, 6, 20, 60. Are soluble compounds that conduct current (and turn on a light bulb) when dissolved in water.
