A science teacher brings a portable instant heating pad to show the class. The device is a vinyl bag containing a liquid solutio

n of sodium acetate
and a small steel disc. When the teacher flexes the disc, the liquid in the bag crystallizes and the bag feels warm to the touch.
Steel disc-
Before: Vinyl bag contains
a liquid solution of sodium
acetate.
After: Flexing the steel
disc causes the sodium
acetate to crystallize.
How can students find out how much heat energy is released as the sodium acetate solution in the bag crystallizes?
A. Weigh the bag before and after it is activated.
B. Time how long it takes for the solution to completely crystallize after the bag is activated.
C. Use water displacement to measure the volume of the bag before and after it is activated.
D. Place the activated bag in 1000 mL of water and measure the change in the temperature of the water.

The solution of sodium acetate trihydrate energy released is 19.7 kJ/mole which is an endothermic process. The crystallization is exothermic.

<h3>What is crystallization?</h3>

Crystallization can be defined as the solidification of a liquid substance into a highly structured solid whose molecules are placed in a well-defined three dimensional crystal lattice.

A. Before weight: 280gm and after heating of pad, weight increases by 10-20gm approx (300gm).

B. It takes 12-20 minutes for the solution to completely crystallize after the bag is activated.

1. Natural selection is the best of the organisms to live past hardships and survive, leaving the weakest to die. Survival of the fittest.

2. Adaptation is an organism changing to better themselves in a certain environment.

3. These moths were adapted to blend into their surroundings, so as to not be seen by predators.

4. Because of the pollution from the city, the tree’s bark turned from a lighter shade brown to a darker shade brown.

5. A majority of the moths were a lighter gray. With the changing color bark they were seen more by predators.

6. Adaption caused the first darker moths to appear because they learned they needed to blend into the new tree bark color.

7. The change from light to dark gray was very needed for moths. It explains natural selection for those moths who did not adapt to different color gray. Adapting the new tree bark color helped moths been less seen by predators therefor keeping their species more alive.

If bicoid mRNA is injected at the anterior end of an egg from a bicoid mutant mother, what would the phenotype of the resulting
JulijaS [17]

If the larva had one head at the posterior pole, it would be normal. The larva would have two heads, one at the front of its body and the other in the center.

What is bicoid mRNA?

When translated, bicoid protein forms a morphogen gradient that shapes the embryo's head and thorax if bicoid mRNA localizes to the anterior of the Drosophila egg.

How does the egg's bicoid RNA influence development?

According to recent research, Bicoid specifies the anterior of the Drosophila embryo in two different ways. It initially suppresses posterior development. It accomplishes this by attaching to and preventing caudal RNA, which is distributed throughout the egg and early embryo, from being translated.

In two or more complete sentences explain how to balance the chemical equation, KClO3 ⟶ KCl + O2 and include all steps.
Basile [38]
First of all you have to make both sides of the equation equal

KClO3 -------- KCL + O2

this is the way i would do it first

K - 1                K - 1
Cl - 1               Cl - 1
O - 3                O-2   From this we can see that the oxygen of both don't equal

So than from this we would need to find the common factor of the oxygen which is 6. So we would multiply 3 by 2 to get 6 as well as 2 by 3 to get 6.
The equation will now look like
K - 1                         K - 1
Cl - 1                        Cl - 1
O - 3 (2) = 6             O - 2 (3) = 6

so the final answere:

KCl2O3 --------- KCl + 3O2
