Answer: 2)Vitamin A is added to rice to combat blindness.

Explanation:

The genetic engineering is a process of manipulation of the genome of the organism by either introducing new genes in an organism's genome or by removing the defective genes. This is basically performed to introduce new traits in an organism or to remove the disease causing genes.

Vitamin A is added to rice to combat blindness is the correct option because genetic engineering will ensure the introduction of the genes which are responsible for secretion of vitamin A in the rice plant as the rice species does not naturally produce vitamin A. This will help in combating the disorder of blindness in humans.

2. Classify the following solutions as acidic, basic, or neutral at 25OC.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer: a) pH = 13.00 : basic

b) [H_3O^+]=1.0\times 10^{-12}: basic

c) pOH = 5.00 : basic

d) [OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-9}: acidic

Explanation:

pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

pH=-\log [H_3O^+]

Acids have pH ranging from 1 to 6.9 and bases have pH ranging from 7.1 to 14.Neutral substances have pH of 7.

a) pH = 13.00

As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.

b)  [H_3O^+]=1.0\times 10^{-12}

Putting in the values:

pH=-\log[1.0\times 10^{-12}]

pH=12

As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.

c) pOH = 5.00

pH+pOH=14.0

pH=14.0-5.00=9.00

As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.

d) [OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-9}

Putting in the values:

pOH=-\log[1.0\times 10^{-9}]

pOH=9.00

pH+pOH=14.0

pH=14.0-9.00=5.00

As pH is less than 7, the solution is acidic.

what are we/what has someone did to prevent/lessen the negative side effects of aluminium extraction?
kogti [31]

Aluminum is one of the main factors that reduce plant growth in acid soils. Although it is generally harmful to plants in soils with a neutral medium, the concentration of positive aluminum ions in acid soils increases and malfunctions in root and function growth.

Most acid soils are saturated with aluminum rather than hydrogen ions. Soil acidity is the result of hydrolysis of aluminum compounds. This principle (lime correction) to determine the degree of base saturation in the soil has become the basis of the methods used in soil testing laboratories to determine the lime requirements for soil. Application of lime to soil reduces the toxicity of aluminum to plants. Note This connector loads slowly.

Adaptation of wheat to allow aluminum to be carried out is due to the fact that aluminum releases organic compounds that in turn combine with harmful aluminum cations. It is believed that sorghum has the same endurance. The first genes found to withstand aluminum were found in wheat. Aluminum sulphide bearing has been found to be governed by an individual gene, such as in wheat. This is not the case in all plants.

Which of the followings is true about G0'? A. G0' can be determined using Keq' B. G0' indicates if a reaction can occur under no
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

A and D are true , while B and F statements are false.

Explanation:

A) True.  Since the standard gibbs free energy is

ΔG = ΔG⁰ + RT*ln Q

where Q= [P1]ᵃ.../([R1]ᵇ...) , representing the ratio of the product of concentration of chemical reaction products P and the product of concentration of chemical reaction reactants R

when the system reaches equilibrium ΔG=0 and Q=Keq

0 = ΔG⁰ + RT*ln Q → ΔG⁰ = (-RT*ln Keq)

therefore the first equation also can be expressed as

ΔG = RT*ln (Q/Keq)

thus the standard gibbs free energy can be determined using Keq

B) False. ΔG⁰ represents the change of free energy under standard conditions . Nevertheless , it will give us a clue about the ΔG around the standard conditions .For example if ΔG⁰>>0 then is likely that ΔG>0 ( from the first equation) if the temperature or concentration changes are not very distant from the standard conditions

C) False. From the equation presented

ΔG⁰ = (-RT*ln Keq)

ΔG⁰>0 if Keq<1 and ΔG⁰<0 if Keq>1

for example, for a reversible reaction  ΔG⁰ will be <0 for forward or reverse reaction and the ΔG⁰ will be >0 for the other one ( reverse or forward reaction)

D) True. Standard conditions refer to

T= 298 K

pH= 7

P= 1 atm

C= 1 M for all reactants

Water = 55.6 M
