Consider 80.0-g samples of two different compounds consisting of only carbon and oxygen. One of the compounds consists of 21.8 g

of carbon, and the other has 34.3 g of carbon. Determine the ratio in whole numbers of the masses of carbon that combine with 1.00 g of oxygen between the two compounds.

Answer:

  • <u><em>Ratio of the  mass carbon that combines with 1.00 g of oxygen in compound 2 to the mass of carbon that combines with 1.00 g of oxygen in compound 1 = 2</em></u>

Explanation:

First, detemine the mass of oxygen in the two samples by difference:

  • mass of oxygen = mass of sample - mass of carbon

Item                     Compound 1                        Compound 2

Sample                80.0 g                                    80.0 g

Carbon                 21.8 g                                    34.3 g

Oxygen:               80.0 g - 21.8g = 58.2 g         80.0 g - 34.3 g = 45.7 g

Second, determine the ratios of the masses of carbon that combine with 1.00 g of oxygen:

  • For each sample, divide the mass of carbon by the mass of oxygen determined above:

Sample              Mass of carbon that combines with 1.00 g of oxygen            

Compound 1      21.8 g / 58.2 g =  0.375

Compound 2     34.3 g / 45.7 g = 0.751

Third, determine the ratio of the masses of carbon between the two compounds.

  • Divide the greater number by the smaller number:

  • Ratio = 0.751 / 0.375 = 2.00 which in whole numbers is 2

An example of competition between members of two different species is
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

B) purple loosestrife plants growing in the same wet areas as cattail plants

Explanation:

Competition between members of two species means that two <em>different </em>species are "fighting for" or desire the same resource. This resource could be shelter, food, territory, etc.

An organism cannot compete if it is already dead, so that eliminates answer choices A and C. Answer choice D is wrong because these are two organisms of the <em>same </em>species.

Answer choice B is correct because there are two different species competing for one area of land.
