In the periodic table, elements of the same group are characterized by having the same similar properties.
So, first we will check the elements that lie within the same group as <span>beryllium and then we will attempt to choose the elements with atomic mass higher than 130.

So, elements in the same group as </span>beryllium are: magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.
Among these elements, we will find that:
radium has atomic mass of 226 amu
barium has atomic mass of 137.327 amu

Based on this, the two elements would be barium and radium.

What do atoms form when they bond chemically?

V125BC [204]

They form molecules which can be in solution form if diluted in water, but some do form solutions on exposure to the atmosphere i.e they are deliquescent like pellets of sodium hydroxide

Which electron transition represents a gain of energy?

xz_007 [3.2K]

The correct answer is (A) from 2nd to 3rd shell.

The explanation :

when a gain of energy is the shift of the electrons from a shell of low energy to the shell of high energy

and we have here 2nd shell is the shell of low energy, and 3rd shell is the shell of high energy.

∴ (A) from 2nd to 3rd shell is the correct answer.

A and b are two gases that are mixed together: 2.50 mol a is mixed with 0.850 mol b. if the final pressure of the mixture is 1.7

USPshnik [31]

Partial pressure of gas A is 1.31 atm and that of gas B is 0.44 atm.

The partial pressure of a gas in a mixture can be calculated as

Pi = Xi x P

Where Pi is the partial pressure; Xi is mole fraction and P is the total pressure of the mixture.

Therefore we have Pa = Xa x P and Pb = Xb x P

Let us find Xa and Xb

Χa = mol a/ total moles = 2.50/(2.50+0.85) = 2.50/3.35 = 0.746

Xb = mol b/total moles = 0.85/(2.50+0.85) = 0.85/3.35 = 0.254

Total pressure P is given as 1.75 atm

Pa = Xa x P = 0.746 x 1.75 = 1.31atm

Partial pressure of gas A is 1.31 atm

Pb = Xb x P = 0.254 x 1.75 = 0.44atm

Partial pressure of gas B is 0.44 atm.

What is the type of mutation represented by the amino acid sequence below?

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Substitution mutation

Explanation:

A substitution mutation is a type of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base is replaced by another in a sequence. This will result in the replacement of one or more amino acid in the amino acid sequence.

This is the case in this question where the original amino acid sequence was given as: Leucine – Alanine – Glycine – Leucine. After mutation, the following mutated sequence was produced: Leucine – Alanine – Valine – Leucine.

As illustrated above, one would notice that there is replacement of GLYCINE amino acid by VALINE in the mutated sequence, hence, it is an example of SUBSTITUTION MUTATION.
