Answer:

A chemical formula is an expression that shows the elements in a compound and the relative proportions of those elements.

Explanation:

If only one atom of a specific type is present, no subscript is used. For atoms that have two or more of a specific type of atom present, a subscript is written after the symbol for that atom

aksik [14]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

1. Mary and her siblings share similar hair color. Which of these cell components are most involved in determining the hair color of each sibling?

Gene, Chromosome, Nucleus

Cytoplasm, Chloroplasts,Genes

Vacuoles, Nucleus, Chromosomes

Chromosomes, Chloroplasts, Vacuoles

Answer:

Gene, Chromosome, Nucleus

Explanation:

Gene is defined in biology as "a unit of heredity which is transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristic of the offspring" (Oxford Dictionary).

The gene is located in the chromosomes in the nucleus of cells. The sum total of the genes that an organism inherits from its parents is called the organisms' genotype and determines certain features of the organism.

The hair colour of Mary and each of her siblings depends on the genes they received from their parents.

PLEASE HELPP ______ consist of one large main root with smaller roots branching off, while _____ consist of several main roots t
Kay [80]

fibrous roots; taproots

Explanation:

A taproot root consists of one large main root with smaller roots that branches off into the soil, while the fibrous roots consists of several main roots that branches off to form one mass of roots.

  • The root system in plants helps them to absorb water and other nutrients from the soil.
  • A taproot is much more like extension of stem that penetrates into the ground.
  • It tapers at the end with many other smaller roots branching and networking from it.
  • The fibrous root is a series of roots directly from the stem that independent of one another.
  • Roots are used by plants for anchorage into the soil.

Aspirin (C9H8O4) is synthesized by reacting salicylic acid (C7H6O3) with acetic anhydride (C4H6O3). The balanced equation isC7H6
prisoha [69]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For a:</u> The mass of acetic anhydride needed is 73.91 grams.

<u>For b:</u> The theoretical yield of aspirin is 130.43 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}   .....(1)

  • <u>For a:</u>

Given mass of salicylic acid = 1.00\times 10^2g=100g

Molar mass of salicylic acid = 138.121 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of salicylic acid}=\frac{100g}{138.121g/mol}=0.724mol

For the given chemical reaction:

C_7H_6O_3+C_4H_6O_3\rightarrow C_9H_8O_4+CH_3COOH

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of salicylic acid reacts with 1 mole of acetic anhydride.

So, 0.724 moles of salicylic acid will react with = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.724=0.724mol of acetic anhydride.

Now, to calculate the mass of acetic anhydride, we use equation 1:

Moles of acetic anhydride = 0.724 moles

Molar mass of acetic anhydride = 102.09 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.724mol=\frac{\text{Mass of acetic anhydride}}{102.09g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of acetic anhydride}=73.91g

Hence, the mass of acetic anhydride needed is 73.91 grams.

  • <u>For b:</u>

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of salicylic acid is producing 1 mole of aspirin.

So, 0.724 moles of salicylic acid will produce = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.724=0.724mol of aspirin.

Now, to calculate the mass of aspirin, we use equation 1:

Moles of aspirin = 0.724 moles

Molar mass of aspirin = 180.158 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.724mol=\frac{\text{Mass of aspirin}}{180.158g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of aspirin}=130.43g

Hence, the theoretical yield of aspirin is 130.43 grams.
