The answer is: A


C-14 is not stable and this is the reason why it goes through radioactive decay.

RSB [31]3 years ago

Answer : The false statement is, (A) It is a stable isotope.

Explanation:

Isotope : It is defined as the element that have the same number of protons but have the different number of neutrons of each of the atom.

Carbon has three isotopes which are carbon-12, carbon-13 and carbon-14.

Carbon-14 is an unstable isotope which is radioactive isotope and it is present in all the living things.

Carbon-14 is used to calculate the age of of remains.

Hence, the false statement is, (A) It is a stable isotope.

Sickle-cell anemia is a genetic disease that causes red blood cells to have an odd shape. The odd shape prevents the blood cells
vredina [299]

"Normal red blood cells are rounded and disk-shaped. In sickle cell anemia, some red blood cells become deformed, so they look like sickles used to cut wheat. These unusually shaped cells give the disease its name. Sickle cell anemia is one of a group of disorders known as sickle cell disease."

How does a multicellular organism develop?
crimeas [40]

Answer:

The cells differentiate.

Explanation:

Organism can be simply classified on the basis of the cellularity of the organism. Two main types of organism are unicellular organisms and the multi cellular organisms.

Multicellular organism contain different types of cells.  The different cells differentiate to perform a particular function. The division of labor property is well shown by the multi cellular organism. The cells of the multi cellular organism must show differentiation process.

Thus, the correct answer is option (d).

Calculate the pka of hypochlorous acid. The ph of a 0.015 m solution of hypochlorous acid has a ph of 4.64.
o-na [289]

Answer:

  • pKa = 7.46

Explanation:

<u>1) Data:</u>

a) Hypochlorous acid = HClO

b) [HClO} = 0.015

c) pH = 4.64

d) pKa = ?

<u>2) Strategy:</u>

With the pH calculate [H₃O⁺], then use the equilibrium equation to calculate the equilibrium constant, Ka, and finally calculate pKa from the definition.

<u>3) Solution:</u>

a) pH

  • pH = - log [H₃O⁺]

  • 4.64 = - log [H₃O⁺]

  • [H_3O^+]= 10^{-4.64} = 2.29.10^{-5}

b) Equilibrium equation: HClO (aq) ⇄ ClO⁻ (aq) + H₃O⁺ (aq)

c) Equilibrium constant: Ka =  [ClO⁻] [H₃O⁺] / [HClO]

d) From the stoichiometry: [CLO⁻] = [H₃O⁺] = 2.29 × 10 ⁻⁵ M

e) By substitution: Ka = (2.29 × 10 ⁻⁵ M)² / 0.015M = 3.50 × 10⁻⁸ M

f) By definition: pKa = - log Ka = - log (3.50 × 10 ⁻⁸) = 7.46
