1) We need to convert 12.0 g of H2 into moles of H2, and <span> 74.5 grams of CO into moles of CO
</span><span>Molar mass of H2:    M(H2) = 2*1.0= 2.0 g/mol
Molar mass of CO:   M(CO) = 12.0 +16.0 = 28.0 g/mol

</span>12.0 g  H2 * 1 mol/2.0 g = 6.0 mol H2
74.5 g CO * 1 mol/28.0 g = 2.66 mol CO

<span>2) Now we can use reaction to find out what substance will react completely, and what will be leftover. 

                                  CO       +         2H2   ------->      CH3OH  
                                 1 mol              2 mol
given                        2.66 mol          6 mol (excess)

How much
we need  CO?           3 mol              6 mol

We see that H2 will be leftover, because for 6 moles H2  we need 3 moles CO, but we have only 2.66 mol  CO.
So, CO will react completely, and we are going to use CO to find  the mass of CH3OH.

3)                              </span>CO       +         2H2   ------->      CH3OH  
                                 1 mol                                        1 mol
                                2.66 mol                                    2.66 mol

4) We have 2.66 mol CH3OH
Molar mass CH3OH : M(CH3OH) = 12.0 +  4*1.0 + 16.0 = 32.0 g/mol

2.66 mol CH3OH * 32.0 g CH3OH/ 1 mol CH3OH =  85.12 g CH3OH
<span>
Answer is </span>D) 85.12 grams.

Answer: D. Mutation in coding sequences are more likely to be deleterious to the organism than mutations in noncoding sequences.

Explanation: It was not likely to be that the coding sequences are replicated more often. The only possible explanation is that the mutations in coding is more likely to be deleterious to the organism than mutations because it is in a non coding sequence.

How many grams of oxygen are required to burn 60 grams of ethane gas, C2H6? 2 C2H6 (g) + 7 O2(g) → 4 CO2 (g) + 6 H2O (g)
timofeeve [1]
60 g C2H6 × 1 mol C2H6 x   7 mol O2     x     32 g O2   =      ~223.5 g O2
                        30.068 g      2 mol C2H6        1 mol O2
