what evidence from today's experiment supports the idea that exhaled air contains more co2 than room air

Why is the symbol for a piece of aluminum foil written as AI, when it actually contains billions of aluminum atoms?

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Read Explanation

Explanation:

Aluminum foil does contain billions of atoms, but we write them just as Al because aluminum does not exist in single atom forms in normal circumstances but as billions in metallic bonds.

Which of the following will increase the number of collisions without changing the energy of reactant molecules?

natulia [17]

Answer:increasing the concentration of reactants

Explanation:

Collision is the phenomenon in which the reactant molecules come to nearest closness,as a result the reactants are converted into products.

Now the number of effective collision is directly proportional to the number of reactants added..

Write the empirical formula of at least four binary ionic compounds that could be formed from the following ions: Zn2+, Ni4+, F-

hram777 [196]

Ionic compounds are formed between oppositely charged ions.

A binary ionic compound is composed of ions of two different elements - one of which is a positive ion(metal), and the other is negative ion (nonmetal).

To write the empirical formula of binary ionic compound we must remember that one ion should be positive and other ion should be negative, then only the correct formula should be written. To write the empirical formula the charges of opposite ions should be criss-crossed.

First empirical formula of binary ionic compound is written between $Zn^{2+} (Positive ion)and F^{-} (Negative ion)$

First Formula would be $ZnF_{2}$

Second empirical formula is between $Zn^{2+}(Positive ion) and O^{2-}(Negative ion)$

Second Formula would be $Zn_{2}O_{2}$

Note : When the subscript are same they get cancel out, so $Zn_{2}O_{2}$ would be written as $ZnO$

Third empirical formula is between $Ni^{4+}(Positive ion) and F^{-}(Negative ion)$

Third Formula would be : $NiF_{4}$

Forth empirical formula is between $Ni^{4+}(Positive ion)and O^{2-}(negative ion)$

Forth Formula would be : $Ni_{2}O_{4}$ or $NiO_{2}$

Note- The subscript will be simplified and the formula will be written as $NiO_{2}$ .

The empirical formula of four binary ionic compounds are : $ZnF_{2}, ZnO, NiF_{4},NiO_{2}$

The average propane cylinder for a residential grill holds approximately 18 kg of propane. How much energy (in kJ) is released b

brilliants [131]

Combustion is a chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidant, oxygen, to give off combustion products and heat. Complete combustion results when all of the fuel is consumed to form carbon dioxide and water, as in the case of a hydrocarbon fuel. Incomplete combustion results when insufficient oxygen reacts with the fuel, forming soot and carbon monoxide.

The complete combustion of propane proceeds through the following reaction:
$C_{3} H_{8}$ + $5O_{2}$ --> $3CO_{2}$ + $4H_{2}O$

Combustion is an exothermic reaction, which means that it gives off heat as the reaction proceeds. For the complete combustion of propane, the heat of combustion is (-)2220 kJ/mole, where the minus sign indicates that the reaction is exothermic.

The molar mass of propane is 44.1 grams/mole. Using this value, the number of moles propane to be burned can be determined from the mass of propane given. Afterwards, this number of moles is multiplied by the heat of combustion to give the total heat produced from the reaction of the given mass of propane.

14.50 kg propane x 1000 g x 1 mole propane x 2220 kJ 
1 kg 44.1 g 1 mole

= 729,931.97 kJ

What is the type of mutation represented by the amino acid sequence below?

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Substitution mutation

Explanation:

A substitution mutation is a type of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base is replaced by another in a sequence. This will result in the replacement of one or more amino acid in the amino acid sequence.

This is the case in this question where the original amino acid sequence was given as: Leucine – Alanine – Glycine – Leucine. After mutation, the following mutated sequence was produced: Leucine – Alanine – Valine – Leucine.

As illustrated above, one would notice that there is replacement of GLYCINE amino acid by VALINE in the mutated sequence, hence, it is an example of SUBSTITUTION MUTATION.
