Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

Total pressure of  mixture = p = 378 kPa

Partial pressure of the oxygen gas = p^o_{O_2}=212 kPa

Partial pressure of the hydrogen gas = p^o_{H_2}=101 kPa

Partial pressure of the nitrogen gas = p^o_{N_2}=?

As we know that total pressure is sum of partial pressures exerted by all the individual gases.

p=p^o_{O_2}+p^o_{H_2}+p^o_{N_2}

378 kpa=212 kPa+101 kPa+p^o_{N_2}

p^o_{N_2}=378 kPa - 212 kPa-101 kPa=65 kPa

65 kPa the partial pressure exerted by nitrogen.

As we know that

<span>P total = pO +pH +pN</span>

<span>so</span>

P = P1 + P2 + P3

378 kPa= 212 kPa + 101 kPa + P(H2)

P(H2) = 65 kPa

partial pressure is 65

so correct option is A 

hope it helps

1. During DNA elongation, polymerase enzyme adds new, free nucleotides to the three prime end of the newly forming strand, elongating it in  five prime to three prime direction while the telomerase protects the important genes at the end of the chromosome from been deleted as the DNA strand shorten during DNA elongation.

2. During DNA elongation, helicase enzyme separates the double stranded DNA  into single strand by melting the hydrogen bond that holds the DNA molecule together thus enabling each strand to be copied while the telomerase acts by preventing the telomere from been deleted during elongation.

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

The correct answer is "a hypertonic solution".

Explanation:

Seawater is the most clear example of a hypertonic solution in nature. The concentration of ions in seawater are far more superior than the concentration of ions inside a plant or an animal cell, since seawater have an osmolarity of about 1000 mOsm/l. Therefore, at high tide a plant or animal cell will be in a hypertonic solution, and the cells must have adaptions to avoid cell shrinking and dead.
