You feed a canned dog food that is 75% moisture. When analyzed, it contained 30% crude protein and 1.20% calcium on a dry matter

basis. If you feed 681 grams (1.5 pounds) of this dog food per day to your Collie pup, how many grams of calcium is your dog consuming each day?

To solve the problem, let us note that the calcium percentage no longer considers the moisture content of the canned dog food. Taking the 75% of the sample 681 grams results in a moisture content of 510.75. This is "removed" from consideration and we're left with 170.25 grams which we multiply with the given (dry basis) percentage of calcium to get 2.043 grams of Calcium.

Chickens as Drug Factories
PolarNik [594]
Well to begin with this process is called genetic engineering, the scientists altered the DNA of the chickens instead of altering a protein already in the chickens because when you alter the DNA the offsprings  of the chicken will will have the same qualities while if you only alter the protein already in that chicken only that chicken will be able to do the job

When an ionic compound such as sodium chloride (NaCl) is placed in water, the component atoms of the NaCl crystal dissociate int
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is C) 1 L of 1.0 M NaCl

Explanation:

NaCl is a ionic compound so it dissociates in water into Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions. Glucose is a covalent solute so it does not dissociates into ions. So, when we dissolve NaCl we have twice the amount of particles in solution in comparison with glucose. According to this:

A) and B) are solutions with the same concentration (0.5 M) but NaCl solution will have more solute particles than glucose.

C) and D) are solutions with more solute amount because they are more concentrated (1 M), but NaCl solution will have more solute particles than glucose solution ( 1 mol of Na⁺ ions + 1 mol of Cl⁻ ions).

The solution with the greatest solute particle number is C).
