Why do single cell organisms divide?

1 answer:

7 0

Single-celled organisms which use asexual reproduction can do so very rapidly simply by dividing into two equal halves. This is called binary fission. In yeasts the cell does not divide equally in two halves; instead, there is a large mother cell and a smaller daughter cell. This is called budding.

Gold has a molar (atomic) mass of 197 g/mol. consider a 2.47 g sample of pure gold vapor. (a) calculate the number of moles of g

adell [148]

N = given mass/ molar mass.
n = number of moles
given mass = 2.47 g
molar mass = 197 g/mol

n = 2.47 / 197
n = 0.01253 moles.
I'm sure you wanted to ask more than this. Just put some comments in. I can do the same.

nswer the following questions relating to HCl, CH3Cl, and CH3Br.HCl(g), can be prepared by the reaction of concentrated H2SO4(ag

alexdok [17]

Answer:

It is an example of double displacement reaction.

4.8 g of NaCl is needed to react.

Explanation:

Balanced reaction: $H_{2}SO_{4}(aq.)+2NaCl(s)\rightarrow 2HCl(g)+Na_{2}SO_{4}(aq.)$

Here, oxidation states of H, S, O, Na and Cl do not change during reaction. Hence it is not a redox reaction.

In this reaction, cations and anions of the reactants interchange their partners during reaction. Hence, it is an example of double displacement reaction.

As $H_{2}SO_{4}(aq.)$ remain in excess amount therefore NaCl (s) is the limiting reagent. Hence production of HCl entirely depends on amount of NaCl used.

Molar mass of HCl = 36.46 g/mol

So, 3.0 g of HCl = $\frac{3.0}{36.46}$ mol of HCl = 0.082 mol of HCl

According to balanced equation-

2 moles of HCl are produced from 2 moles of NaCl

So, 0.082 moles of HCl are produced from 0.082 moles of NaCl

Molar mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol

So, mass of 0.082 moles of NaCl = $(0.082\times 58.44)$ g = 4.8 g

Hence 4.8 g of NaCl is needed to react.

How would a flood be a limitation for synthetic polymers that rely on natural rubber in its production?

Zepler [3.9K]

A flood, if it hits the environment of the natural rubbers, would destroy how the rubber is being produced. to have a large amount of limitation, the flood would destroy a large percentage of rubber trees. This natural rubber is needed to make synthetic polymers. Without the rubber (because of damages to it's ecosystem through the flood), there would be a limited supply, and a substancial drop on synthetic polymers.

hope this helps

Sometimes a nuclide is referenced by the name of the element followed by the:

pentagon [3]

Answer:

electric charge

Explanation:

A nuclide is represented by the name of the element, preceded by the mass number (A) as a superscript on the left and the atomic number (Z) as subscript.

On the right, as a superscript is the electrical charge (e.g. +2) and is following the element name.
