If you place a strong acid in water it will likely ionize. If you put the same acid in oil it will not. Why the difference?

Biology

Answer

An acid that breaks down completely and gives off many ions, or protons, is considered to be a strong acid. ex H₂SO₄

If you place strong acid into water it dissociate acid into H⁺ ions

Water is polar solvent(H⁺ and OH⁻), which has partial positive charge on one side and partial negative charge on the other side.

Strong acids readily dissociate in polar solvents to give H+ ions.

Where as Oil is a non polar solvent it has same charge all over so no dissociation of strong acid will take place.

Answer:

F1: Aa Bb Cc: 4.5 lbs

F2: Too many to list: Between 3 lbs and 6 lbs

Explanation:

F1: Aa Bb Cc, will be the genotypes and will weigh 4.5 lbs, the reason for that is because each capital letter allele adds half a pound to the base weight of 3 lbs.

F2: There are many different genotypes that can be present in the second generation, for example (AA BB CC, AA BB Cc, AA BB cc, etc.) each of which will allow the plant to grow to a certain height. The majority of phenotypes will be 4.5 lbs. There will be one who is AA BB CC, and another one person who has the code, aa bb cc.
