1 nickle = 5 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

$4.45 = 445 cents

let

n = the number of nickles, n>=0

d = the number of dimes, d>=0

a jar containing only nickels and dimes contain a total of 60 coins:

n + d = 60

the value of all the coins in the jar is $4.45:

5n + 10d = 445

by solving the system of equations:

n + d = 60

5n + 10d = 445

we find:

n = 31 nickels

d = 29 dimes

Which statements correctly describe the decay rates of radioactive isotopes?
storchak [24]

Answer: b} The exact time when an individual atom will decay can be accurately predicted.

c} After each half-life, the amount of radioactive material is reduced by half.

Explanation:

All radioactive decay  follows first order kinetics.

Rate law expression for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant

t = time taken for decay process

a = initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process

Expression for calculating half life, which is the time taken by the half of the reactants to decompose is:

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

In the reaction BaCO3 + 2HNO3 + Ba(NO3)2 + CO2 + H2O, what mass of Ba(NO3)2 can be formed by combining 55 g BaCO3 and 26 g HNO3
Nataliya [291]

From the stoichiometry of the reaction, the mass of barium nitrate produced is 54.9 g.

<h3>Stoichiometry</h3>

The term stoichiometry refers to mass - volume relationships. Stoichiometry can be used to calculate the amount, mass or volume of reactants and products from the balanced reaction equation.

The equation of the reaction is written as follows;

BaCO3 + 2HNO3 ------>  Ba(NO3)2 + CO2 + H2O

Number of moles of BaCO3  = 55 g/197.34 g/mol = 0.28 moles

Number of moles of HNO3 = 26 g/63.01 g/mol = 0.41 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of BaCO3 reacts with 2 moles of HNO3

0.28 moles of BaCO3 reacts with 0.28 moles ×  2 moles/1 mole = 0.56 moles

There is not enough HNO3 hence it is the limiting reactant.

Number of moles of Ba(NO3)2 produced  is obtained from;

2 moles of HNO3  yields 1 mole of Ba(NO3)2

0.41 moles of HNO3  yields 0.41 moles × 1 mole/2 moles

= 0.21 moles of Ba(NO3)2

Mass of  Ba(NO3)2  = 0.21 moles  × 261.337 g/mol = 54.9 g

Mitosis and Meiosis Lab Report
poizon [28]

Answer:

Mitosis and Meiosis Lab Report

Instructions: In the Mitosis and Meiosis lab, you investigated sexual and asexual reproduction as well as the processes of cellular division by mitosis and meiosis. Record your observations in the lab report below. You will submit your completed report.

________________________________________

Name and Title:  

Mitosis and Meiosis Lab Report.  

Objective(s):  

To learn and explore what mitosis and meiosis is and what they do.  

Hypothesis:

Record your predictions during the zoo tour section of the lab in the data chart.

Procedure:

First, go into the mitosis and meiosis cycles. Then look at what happens when a sex cell from a female tiger is combined with a sex cell from a male tiger. Then investigate what happens when two starfish reproduce asexually. Then write down the predictions about how each organism will replicate. Then, keep track on whether or not the forecast was right.

Data:  

Record your data from the zoo tour in the data chart below. Be sure to fill in the chart completely.

Zoo Organism Reproduction Prediction

(sexual, asexual, or both) Reproduction Result

(sexual, asexual, or both)

Elephant Sexual Sexual

Whiptail lizard Asexual Asexual

Parrot Sexual Sexual

Redwood tree  Both Both

Amoeba Asexual Asexual

Jellyfish Asexual Both

Conclusion:  

Your conclusion will include a summary of your lab results and an interpretation of the results. Please write in complete sentences.

1. List one-way mitosis and meiosis are the same and one way they are different.

Meiosis has 2 cell divisions, but mitosis has just one cell division. Since the parent cell develops diploid cells, meiosis I is the same as mitosis. The distinction between meiosis and mitosis is that after the whole process, meiosis produces genetically distinct haploid daughter cells, while mitosis produces genetically identical diploid daughter cells.

2. What is one advantage and one disadvantage of sexual reproduction?

The greatest benefit of sexual reproduction is that it aids in the development of offspring that are well suited to environmental environments due to genetic differentiation. As a result, the nation has a diverse range of descendants. The downside is that it needs two parents and takes longer than asexual reproduction.

3. What is one advantage and one disadvantage of asexual reproduction?

Asexual reproduction has the advantage of requiring only one parent, taking a short amount of time, and producing genetically identical offspring. The only drawback is that when there is a catastrophe, the mortality rate is poor due to the generation of genetically identical offspring.

4. Some living organisms are capable of both asexual and sexual reproduction. Explain how this can be an advantage.

To produce offspring, the organism may use either sexual or asexual reproduction. If it is difficult to find a mate, the living being will use asexual reproduction to produce offspring quickly. Sexual reproduction is possible because the individual requires genetically distinct offspring for survival.

Try to paraphrase evrything. I already paraphrased the procedure but i reccomend using the website "quillbot" to paraphrase evrything else so you dont get in trouble! If you have any qustions im here to answer ;)
