Why does it seem to us as if rocks remain the same and don't change

1 answer:

3 0

Most rocks that we encounter in our normal everyday lives are sedimentary rocks. Sedimentary rocks are rocks that have been worn down gradually over long periods of time. Because it takes very long periods of time (couple decades) for these rocks to change, it often seems as if they don't change at all, when in reality the change is too small for us to realize it!

A 32.2 g iron rod, initially at 21.9 C, is submerged into an unknown mass of water at 63.5 C. in an insulated container. The fin

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer : The mass of the water in two significant figures is, $3.0\times 10^1g$

Explanation :

In this case the heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

$q_1=-q_2$

$m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)$

where,

$c_1$ = specific heat of iron metal = $0.45J/g^oC$

$c_2$ = specific heat of water = $4.18J/g^oC$

$m_1$ = mass of iron metal = 32.3 g

$m_2$ = mass of water = ?

$T_f$ = final temperature of mixture = $59.2^oC$

$T_1$ = initial temperature of iron metal = $21.9^oC$

$T_2$ = initial temperature of water = $63.5^oC$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

$32.3g\times 0.45J/g^oC\times (59.2-21.9)^oC=-m_2\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (59.2-63.5)^oC$

$m_2=30.16g\approx 3.0\times 10^1g$

Therefore, the mass of the water in two significant figures is, $3.0\times 10^1g$

Part B

sashaice [31]

The anticodons corresponding to the codons on the mRNA (from part A) is 5' CGA - AAA - GUU 3'.

<h3>What are anticodons?</h3>

Anticodons are nucleotide sequences on tRNA molecules that are complementary to the codons found on mRNA molecules.

The anticodons on tRNA molecules determine the amino acid that is carried by the tRNA.

Just like codons, anticodons occur in triplets of nucleotide sequences.

Considering the codons on the mRNA molecule:

3’ GCT | TTT | CAA | AAA ’5

The complementary anticodon will be:

5' CGA - AAA - GUU 3'

Determine the oxidation number of sodium in Na202

Olegator [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

Na₂O₂

NOTE: the oxidation number of oxygen is always –2 except in peroxides where it is –1.

Thus, we can obtain the oxidation number of sodium (Na) in Na₂O₂ as illustrated below:

Na₂O₂ = 0 (oxidation number of ground state compound is zero)

2Na + 2O = 0

O = –1

2Na + 2(–1) = 0

2Na – 2 = 0

Collect like terms

2Na = 0 + 2

2Na = 2

Divide both side by 2

Na = 2/2

Na = +1

Thus, the oxidation number of sodium (Na) in Na₂O₂ is +1
