Answer:

water is H2O having different structure than alcohol R-OH which means they have different properties too.

Explanation:

In water one oxygen atom is covalently bound with two hydrogen atoms while alcohol is an organic compound having Oh group attached to the carbon chain.

Other than liquid water can occur in solid form that is ice and in gaseous form that is vapors too while alcohol only present in liquid form.

heat of evaporation of alcohol is lower than water means water need more heat to evaporate than alcohol that is why we can say alcohol having more cooling effect than water.

I’m learning about heredity

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

1. (See explanation)

2. 46. 23 from the mother’s egg and 23 from the father’s sperm.

Explanation:

ok for number one I am not entirely sure, but I am pretty sure that light, chemicals and temperature can all affect which genes get turned on and off. I am not entirely sure if the question is asking about the environment influencing inherited traits in the form of natural selection tho? If that is something you’re seeing right now, it might be a possible answer. But honestly I am not completely sure.

Design an experiment to collect data that supports the claim that a 1.0M NaCl solution is a homogenous mixture.

Alika [10]

The claim is that NaCl mixture is a homogeneous mixture.
Homogeneous mixture means that the components of the mixtures cannot be determined or separated by the naked eye. However, these components can be separated using physical means, such as boiling, evaporation and condensation which will be used in this experiment.

First, we need to prepare one molar solution of NaCl. To do so, we will dilute a mass of 58.44 grams (molar mass of NaCl) in 1 liter of water.
By this, we will have NaCl solution.

We can notice that once the NaCl is diluted in water, all what you can see is a clear solution. You cannot see the separate particles of NaCl in water.
..............> observation I

Now, we will heat this solution until it boils and water starts evaporating. We will place a cold surface above the steam coming out from the boiling solution.

What we will observe is that when all the water evaporates, we can see white precipitate of NaCl in the bottom of the container. Examining the cold surface placed above the steam, we can see that the water has condensed on this surface.
.........>observation II

Based on this, we managed to use boiling, evaporation and condensation (physical methods) to restore the components of the solution separately.
.............>conclusion

Based on observation I, observation II and the conclusion. we were able to prove that NaCl solution is a homogeneous mixture.

When silver nitrate reacts with copper, copper(II) nitrate and silver are produced. The balanced equation for this reaction is:

posledela

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

When silver nitrate reacts with copper, copper(II) nitrate and silver are produced. The balanced equation for this reaction is:

$2AgNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+2Ag$

Suppose 6 moles of silver nitrate react. The reaction consumes___ moles of copper. The reaction produces __ moles of copper(II) nitrate and __ moles of silver.

Answer: The amount of copper metal reacted is 3 moles, amount of copper (II) nitrate produced is 3 moles and amount of silver metal produced is 6 moles.

Explanation:

We are given:

Moles of silver nitrate = 6 moles

For the given chemical reaction:

$2AgNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+2Ag$

For copper metal:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of silver nitrate reacts with 1 mole of copper metal

So, 6 moles of silver nitrate will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 6=3mol$ of copper metal

Moles of copper reacted = 3 moles

For copper(II) nitrate:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of silver nitrate produces 1 mole of copper(II) nitrate

So, 6 moles of silver nitrate will produce = $\frac{1}{2}\times 6=3mol$ of copper(II) nitrate

Moles of copper(II) nitrate produced = 3 moles

For silver metal:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of silver nitrate produces 2 moles of silver metal

So, 6 moles of silver nitrate will produce = $\frac{2}{2}\times 6=6mol$ of silver metal

Moles of silver metal produced = 3 moles

Hence, the amount of copper metal reacted is 3 moles, amount of copper (II) nitrate produced is 3 moles and amount of silver metal produced is 6 moles.
