Answer:

The correct answer is A)

Overtime, the finches on the island adapted as a result of competition for resources.

Explanation:

The finches beaks adapted to the food source which was favored by natural selection. The successful finches that had the most useful beak for their island survived and therefore reproduced.

Cheers!

A sample of glucose contains 1.250x10^21 carbon atoms, how many atoms of hydrogen does it contain?
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Hydrogen = 2.5 * 10^21

Explanation:

Chemical Formula Glucose: C₆H₁₂O₆

One of the ways you could do  this is to notice that for every carbon atom there are two Hydrogen atoms. You can state this more formally by using the formula to set up a ratio: 12/6 = hydrogen to Carbon

So if there are 1.250 * 10^21 Carbon atoms in the Glucose sample, then there will be twice as many hydrogen atoms.

H = 2 * 1.25 * 10^21 = 2.5 * 10^21 atoms

You could do this more formally by setting up a proportion.

6 Carbon / 12 Hydrogen = 1.25*10^21 /  x         Cross Multiply

6*x = 12 * 1.25*10^21                                           Combine the right

6x = 1.5 * 10^22                                                  Divide by 6

x = 2.5 * 10^21

According to VSEPR theory , in which fashion will the bonds and lone pairs of electrons be arranged about the central atom in th
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Tetrahedral, trigonal pyramidal, trigonal bipyramidal.

Explanation:

The VSPER theory states that the bonds of sharing electrons and the lone pairs of electrons will repulse as much as possible. So, by the repulsion, the molecule will have some shape.

In the ion PO₄³⁻, the central atom P has 5 electrons in its valence shell, so it needs 3 electrons to be stable. Oxygen has 6 electrons at the valence shell and needs 2 to be stable. 3 oxygens share 1 pair of electrons with P, and the two lone pair remaining in P is shared with the other O, then the central atom makes 4 bonds and has no lone pairs, the shape is tetrahedral.

In the ion H₃O⁺, the central atom O has 6 electrons in its valence shell and needs 2 electrons to be stable. The hydrogen has 1 electron, and need 1 more to be stable. The hydrogens share 1 pair of electrons with the oxygen, then it remains 3 electrons at the central atom, and the VSPER theory states that the shape will be a trigonal pyramidal.

In the AsF₅, the central atom As has 5 valence electrons, and F has 1 electron in its valence shell, so each F shares one pair of electrons with As, and there are no lone pairs in the central atom. For 5 bonds without lone pairs, the shape is trigonal bipyramidal.
