Why is asexual reproduction simpler in prokaryotes?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Paha777 [63]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

In asexual reproduction, a single parent produces genetically identical offspring. As prokaryotes do not have a nucleus, and have only one circular chromosome, they do not need to reproduce by the same mechanism as eukaryotic cells; mitosis does not exist in prokaryotic cells.

How are the molecular mass and molar mass of a compound similar and how are they different?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Similarities: both state the mass of chemical species and they have the same numerical value

Differences: molecular mass refers to one single molecule and molar mass refers to one mole of a molecule

Explanation:

The molecular mass is the value of the mass of each molecule and it is measured in mass units (u). It is calculated adding the mass of each atom of the molecule.

The molar mass is the value of the mass of one mole of molecules, which means the mass of 6.022140857 × 10²³ molecules. The unit is g/mol.

For example, we can consider the methane molecule, which has the chemical formula of CH₄:

Molecular mass CH₄ = C mass + 4 x (H mass)

Molecular mass CH₄ = 12.01 + 4 x (1.01)

Molecular mass CH₄ = 16.05 u

Now to calculate the molar mass we multiply the value of the molecular mass by the Avogadro number and convert the units to g/mol:

Molar mass CH₄: 16.05 x \frac{1}{6.022140857 x 10x^{23} } g x 6.022140857 × 10²³ mol⁻¹

Molecular mass CH₄ = 16.05 g / mol

Gallium is produced by the electrolysis of a solution made by dissolving gallium oxide in concentrated NaOH ( aq ) . Calculate t
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Approximately 6.30\times 10^{-3}\;\rm mol.

Explanation:

The gallium here is likely to be produced from a \rm NaGaO_2\, (aq) solution using electrolysis. However, the problem did not provide a chemical equation for that process. How many electrons will it take to produce one mole of gallium?

Note the Roman Numeral "\mathtt{(III)}" next to \rm Ga.  This numeral indicates that the oxidation state of the gallium in this solution is equal to +3. In other words, each gallium atom is three electrons short from being neutral. It would take three electrons to reduce one of these atoms to its neutral, metallic state in the form of \rm Ga\, (s).

As a result, it would take three moles of electrons to deposit one mole of gallium atoms from this gallium \mathtt{(III)} solution.

How many electrons are supplied? Start by finding the charge on all the electrons in the unit coulomb. Make sure all values are in their standard units.

t = \rm 80.0\; min = 80.0\; min \times 60\;s \cdot min^{-1} = 4800\; s.

Q = I \cdot t = \rm 0.380 \; A \times 4800 \; s = 1.824\times 10^3\; C.

Calculate the number of electrons in moles using the Faraday's constant. This constant gives the size of the charge (in coulombs) on each mole of electrons.

\begin{aligned} n(\text{electrons}) &= \frac{Q}{F} \cr &= \rm \dfrac{1.824\times 10^3\; C}{96485.332\; C \cdot mol^{-1}}\cr &\approx \rm 1.89\times 10^{-2}\; mol \end{aligned}.

It takes three moles of electrons to deposit one mole of gallium atoms \rm Ga\, (s). As a result, \rm 1.89\times 10^{-2}\; mol of electrons would deposit \displaystyle \rm \frac{1}{3}\times 1.89\times 10^{-2}\; mol \approx 6.30\times 10^{-3}\; mol of gallium atoms \rm Ga\, (s).

Zingerone, one of the flavor molecules in ginger,
MissTica

The molecular formula of the compound is C12H15O3 hence the molar mass of the compound is 207 g/mol.

We need to obtain the number of moles of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in the compound;

Carbon = 24.91 g/44g/mol × 1 mole of carbon = 0.566 moles

Mass of carbon =  0.566 moles × 12 g/mol = 6.792 g

Number of moles of hydrogen = 6.522 g/18 g/mol × 2 moles = 0.725 moles

Mass of hydrogen = 0.725 moles  × 1 g/mol = 0.725 g

Mass of oxygen = 10 - (6.792 g + 0.725 g) = 2.483 g

Number of moles of oxygen = 2.483 g/16 g/mol = 0.155 moles

Now we must divide through by the lowest number of moles;

C - 0.566/0.155   H - 0.725/0.155     O - 0.155/0.155

C - 4                    H - 5                        O - 1

The simplest formula is C4H5O Recall that the molar mass of the compound lies between 150.0 and 220.0 g/mol

4(12) + 5(1) + 16 = 69

Hence; n = 3 and the molecular formula of the compound is C12H15O3

The molar mass of the compound is; 12(12) + 15(1) + 3(16) = 207 g/mol

A sample of helium gas initially at 37.0°C, 785 torr and 2.00 L was heated to 58.0°C while the volume expanded to 3.24 L. What i
spayn [35]

Answer:

0.681 atm

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we make use of the General gas equation.

Given:

P1 = 785 torr

V1 = 2L

T1 = 37= 37 + 273.15 = 310.15K

P2 = ?

V2 = 3.24L

T2 = 58 = 58+273.15 = 331.15K

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Now, making P2 the subject of the formula,

P2 = P1V1T2/T1V2

P2 = [785 * 2 * 331.15]/[310.15 * 3.24]

P2 = 515.715 Torr

We convert this to atm: 1 torr = 0.00132 atm

515.715 Torr = 515.715 * 0.00132 = 0.681 atm
