According to law of conservation of mass, in a chemical reaction mass can neither be destroyed nor created thus, the total mass created here will be 224 g+28 g=252 g thus, mass of H_{2}O involved should be 252 g.

This can be experimentally proved as follows:

The balanced chemical reaction for the above process will be as follows:

2H_{2}O\rightarrow 2H_{2}+O_{2}

Considering any one of the reactant.

2 mol of H_{2} are produced from 2 mol of H_{2}O thus, 1 mol of H_{2} produced from 1 mol of H_{2}O.

Now, mass of hydrogen gas is 28.0 g, molar mass is 2 g/mol, converting mass into number of moles:

n=\frac{m}{M}=\frac{28.0 g}{2 g/mol}=14 mol

thus, 14 mol of H_{2} produced from 1×14=14 mol of H_{2}O.

Molar mass of H_{2}O is 18 g/mol. Converting number of moles into mass as follows:

m=n×M=14 mol×18 g/mol=252 g

Thus, mass of H_{2}O involved in the reaction will be 252 g.

Identify the effect of increasing acidity on the solubility of the given compounds.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

All the given compounds are basic on acidifying their solubility increases.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • C a_{3}\left(P O_{4}\right)_{2} solubility will increase, since it is basic in nature, on acidifying  solubility increases.
  • F e S being basic on acidification, the solubility increases.
  • M g C O_{3} is alkaline in nature, it gets neutralized and there is no increase in acidity.
  • M g B r_{2} is a salt and it shows no effect on acidification.
  • A g I is a salt but insoluble in water and shows no effect on acidification.
  • M g(O H)_{2} is strongly basic in nature, on acidifying the solubility increases.

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.

If you have 10,000 grams of a substance that decays with a half-life of 14 days, then how much will you have after 56 days?
Crank

Answer: 625 grams

Explanation:

14 goes into 56, 4 times.

10,000÷2=5,000 - first half life

5,000÷2=2,500 - second half life

2,500÷2=1,250 - 3rd half life

1,250÷2= 625 - 4th half life

Note: don't type "grams" after 625, just type "625".
