Answer:

Complementary base pairing rules

Thymine 23

Guanine 27

Explanation:

Complementary base pairing rules state that adenine always pairs with thymine, and cytosine always pairs with guanine in a double stranded DNA helix This means that in a double stranded DNA molecule, there will be exactly the same amount of thymine as adenine, and exactly the same amount of guanine as cytosine. Therefore, there is 23% of thymine, and 27% of guanine

given the mass lost during the reaction when the alka seltzer is the limiting reagent and that the molar mass of carbon dioxide
Vadim26 [7]
Alka-seltzer is an effervescent antacid which neutralizes the acid of the stomach by generating CO2. The chemical formula of alka-seltzer is C16H17NaO14. In this case, if we are given the mass of the antacid used, then by stoichiometry, mass alka-seltzer * (1/ molar mass of alk-selz) * (1 mol Co2 / 1 mol alk-seltz) * (44 g/molCo2). That is how you get the mass of Co2 produced.

How many carbon atoms are there in a diamond (pure carbon) with a mass of 55 mg ?
kari74 [83]
1 mol of Carbon = 12 grams.
x mol of Carbon = 55 grams

12*x = 1 * 55
x = 55/12
x = 4.583333 mols of carbon

1 mol of anything is 6.02 * 10^23 atoms
4.58333333 mol = x

1/4.5833333 = 6.02 * 10^23/x
x = 4.58333* 6.02*10^23
x = 2.7591 * 10^23 Carbon atoms

100 points!! Brainliest if correct!!
Misha Larkins [42]

D has the fastest reaction rate because dynamite explodes almost immediately.

A isn't correct because rusting nails take forever to completely rust.

B isn't correct because logs burning can take around 10 to 20 minutes.

C isn't correct because food digestions takes anywhere between 10 minutes to an hour.

Match each chemical reaction with the type of reaction that best describes it.
r-ruslan [8.4K]

2 Al + 6 HCl → 2 AlCl₃ + 3 H₂ (single displacement)

Ca + Br₂  → CaBr₂ (synthesis)

4 NH₃ + 5 O₂  → 4 NO + 6 H₂O (combustion)

2 NaCl → 2 Na + Cl₂ (decomposition)

FeS + 2 HCl → FeCl₂ + H₂S (double displacement)

single displacement - is a chemical reaction of the following type: A + BC → AC + B

double displacement - is a chemical reaction of the following type: AB + CD → AC + BD

synthesis - the chemical product is obtained by combining in a synthesis the constituent elements

combustion - usually a exothermic reaction of a particular compound with oxygen

decomposition - degradation of a compound in simpler elements
