It’s because the 3 only applies to the OH, and not the Al.

A sample of gas has an intial volume of 22.8 L at a pressure of 1.65 atm. If the sample is compressed to a volume of 10.7 L, wha
almond37 [142]

 The  pressure  of the  gas  is 3.52 atm


<u><em>calculation</em></u>

This is calculated using the Boyle's  law  formula

that is  P1V1= P2V2  where;

P1 = 1.65   atm

V1 =22.8 L

P2 =? atm

V2  = 10.7 L


make P2 the subject of the formula by  dividing    both side by V2

P2 = P1V1 / V2

P2 = (1.65 atm x 22.8 l) / 10.7 L  =  3.52   atm

What is the acronym for DNA??
victus00 [196]
The acronym 'DNA' stands for deoxyribonucleic acid.   

DNA is used to 'code' the genetic makeup of all living organisms, and is found inside the nucleus of the cell(Eukaryotes) or just floating in the cytoplasm of the cell(Prokaryotes).  DNA is made up of 4 different pairs of base molecules(nucleotides) that are slightly different from another.  The similar molecule structure RNA(ribonucleic acid) differs from DNA in that RNA nucleotides are just slightly different from the nucleotides of DNA.  This difference is that RNA nucleotides have a hydroxide group(OH) where the DNA nucleotides just have a hydrogen atom.  
Because the DNA nucleotide doesn't have the hydroxide group it has one less oxygen than RNA nucleotides do.  This is where DNA derives the prefix "deoxy-," meaning "without oxygen."  
The prefix "ribo-" is given to molecules with a certain configuration of a set of 3 consecutive but not necessarily contiguous CHOH(asymmetric) groups.
The combined form "nucleo-" is used to imply something that has to do with the nucleus, such as the nucleus of a cell where DNA is stored in Eukaryotes.  
And finally, the ending of the acronym: "acid." DNA is an acid because the 4 nucleotides each contain a phosphate group, which are acidic.

And thus, we get our answer: deoxyribonucleic acid, and the meaning:
deoxy-ribo-nucleic acid
(without oxygen) + (has 3 CHOH groups) + (in/of the nucleus) + (acidic)
Thus, DNA is a molecule is basically an acidic molecule residing in the nucleus with 3 CHOH groups and is missing oxygen atoms.

I know this isn't really what you're looking for, but honestly I had a great time doing a little research into the name!

Hope this explains it a little! c;

Star_____ has the greatest absolute brightness ​
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Star A would have the greater absolute brightness. This is because absolute brightness finds out the actual brightness of a star at a standard distance from Earth. If Star A is twice as far from Earth as Star B but they still both appear to have the same amount of brightness.
