Answer:

The dominant gene - such as brown hair or brown hair

Explanation:

Dominant refers to the relationship between two versions of a gene. Individuals receive two versions of each gene, known as alleles, from each parent. If the alleles of a gene are different, one allele will be expressed; it is the dominant gene. The effect of the other allele, called recessive, is masked. A person with two dominant or two recessive alleles for a trait is "homozygous." A person with one dominant and one recessive allele for a trait is "heterozygous." Because a boy inherits only one X-chromosome, if there is a recessive gene on that X-chromosome, the gene is expressed.

Answer: dominant

explanation: The dominant Gene wins because it overpowers the recessive gene.

A certain substance X has a normal freezing point of -6.4 C and a molal freezing point depression constant Kf= 3.96 degrees C.kg

Brut [27]

Answer: $1.0\times 10^2g$

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point is given by:

$\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m$

$\Delta T_f=T_f^0-T_f=(-6.4-(13.6))^0C=7.2^0C$ = Depression in freezing point

i= vant hoff factor = 1 (for non electrolyte like urea)

$K_f$ = freezing point constant = $3.96^0C/m$

m= molality

$\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times \frac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{molar mass of solute}}\times \text{weight of solvent in kg}}$

Weight of solvent (X)= 950 g = 0.95 kg

Molar mass of non electrolyte (urea) = 60.06 g/mol

Mass of non electrolyte (urea) added = ?

$7.2=1\times 3.96\times \frac{xg}{60.06 g/mol\times 0.95kg}$

$x=1.0\times 10^2g$

Thus $1.0\times 10^2g$ urea was dissolved.

A. Explain, in terms of particles, why NaCl(s) does not conduct electricity.

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Ionic bonds hold charged particles in solid NaCl together, such that they are unable to move or conduct electricity.

Explanation:

Consider an electric current that flows through a conductor: charge moves in a uniform direction from one end of the conductor towards the other.

Thus, there are two conditions for a substance to conduct electricity:

The substance shall contain charged particles, and
These charged particles shall be free to move across the substance.

A conductor of electricity shall meet both requirements.

Now, consider the structure of solid NaCl $\rm NaCl\;(s)$ . NaCl is an ionic compound. It contains an ocean of oppositely charged ions:

Positive $\rm Na^{+}$ ions, and
Negative $\rm Cl^{-}$ ions.

Ions carry charge. Thus, solid NaCl contains charged particles and satisfies the first condition.

Inside solid NaCl $\rm NaCl\;(s)$ , electrostatic attractions ("ionic bonds") between the oppositely charged ions hold these ions in rigid ionic lattices. These ions are unable to move relative to each other. As a result, they cannot flow through the solid to conduct electricity. Under solid state, NaCl is unable to satisfy the second condition.

As a side note, melting NaCl into a liquid breaks the ionic bonds and free the ions from the lattice. Liquid NaCl is a conductor of electricity.

4. Which of these are environmental costs of using

Vinvika [58]

Answer: b. The waste generated is hazardous and must be disposed of.

c. Nuclear material can be spilled into the ocean if reactors are near the coast.

d. A large amount of cold water is generated, which must be stored somewhere.

Explanation:

The main environmental costs for produced during the nuclear power plant consists of procurement of fuel and the thermal load is also produced with cold water discharge in the sea. This can contaminate the sea, hence, must be stored somewhere. The nuclear waste consists of radioactive substances which are hazardous for the environment. The nuclear based electricity does not produce carbon dioxide.

Using the van der Waals equation, determine the pressure exerted by 4.30 mol Ar in 3.6 L at 325K.

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

37.7 atm

Explanation:

Using the relation;

(P + an^2/V^2) (V - nb) = nRT

(P + an^2/V^2) = nRT/(V - nb)

a = 0.0341 atm dm^2 Mol^2

b = 0.0237 dm/mol

P = nRT/(V - nb) - an^2/V^2

P = [4.3 * 0.082 * 325 / (3.6 - (4.3 * 0.0237))] - (0.0341 * (4.3^2))/(3.6^2)

P = 114.595/(3.498) - 0.0487

P = 37.7 atm
