Answer: The correct answer is Option C.

Explanation:

An offspring gets the gene which is formed by the intermixing of the two parents.

It is given that the two parents have the same gene which is "GG". As, we can see there is no dominant trait in the parents gene.

Hence, the offspring will also inherit the same gene type which is "GG".

Therefore, the correct answer is option C.

The option would be C, as there is no way for a recessive gene to happen, if both parents are dominant.

Explain how the atom is electrically neutral, having an equal number of protons and electrons.

lord [1]

Answer:

A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other and atom become neutral.

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other and atom become neutral. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

For example

The carbon have six protons and six neutrons so its atomic mass is 12 amu and atomic number is six.

faltersainse [42]

The reaction for what was describe in the problem is:

N₂ + 3 O₂ --> 2 NO₃

The reactants involved are nitrogen and oxygen gas. From the word itself, oxygen is an oxidizing agent. Therefore, this reaction is an oxidation reaction due to the presence of the oxidizing agent.

Calculate the solubility of CaF2 in g/L (Ksp = 4.0 x 10-8). 2. What is the pH of a solution containing a hydrogen ion concentrat

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{1. \text{ 0.17 g/L; 2. 3.52; 3. Cl; 4. (a) +3; (b) +4; (c) +6}}$

Explanation:

1. Solubility of CaF_2

(a) Molar solubility

CaF₂ ⇌ Ca²⁺ + 2F⁻

$K_{\text{sp }} = \text{[Ca$^{2+}$]}\text{[F$^{-}$]}^{2}= 4.0 \times 10^{-8}\\s(2s)^{2}=4.0 \times 10^{-8}\\4s^{3} = 4.0 \times 10^{-8}\\s^{3} = 1.0 \times 10^{-8}\\s =2.2 \times 10^{-3}\text{ mol/L}$

(b) Mass solubility

$\text{Solubility} = 2.2 \times 10^{-3} \text{ mol/L} \times \dfrac{\text{78.07 g}}{\text{1 L }} = \text{0.17 g/L}\\\\\text{The solubility of CaF$_{2}$ is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.17 g/L}}$}$

2. pH

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log(3.0 × 10⁻⁴) = 3.52
