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.

Answer:

2py and 2pz orbitals

Explanation:

Each carbon atom still has two half-filled 2py and 2pz orbitals, which are perpendicular both to each other and to the line formed by the sigma bonds. These two perpendicular pairs of p orbitals form two pi bonds between the carbons, resulting in a triple bond overall (one sigma bond plus two pi bonds).

Answer:

The answer to your question is molality = 0.61

Explanation:

Freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid turns into a solid if a solute is added to a solution, the freezing point changes.

Data

Kf = 1.86 °C/m

molality = ?

ΔTc = 1.13°C

Formula

ΔTc = kcm

Solve for m

m = ΔTc/kc

Substitution

m = 1.13 / 1.86

Simplification and result

m = 0.61

Calculate the following quantity: volume of 1.403 M copper(II) nitrate that must be diluted with water to prepare 575.2 mL of a

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

328 ml

Explanation:

We have given final volume =575.2 ml=0.575 L

Final concentration = 0.8012 M

We know that moles of copper(II) nitrate = final volume ×final concentration =0.8012×.0575=0.4606 moles

We have to find initial volume

So initial volume $=\frac{moles\ of \ copper(II)\ nitrate}{initial\ concentration}=\frac{0.4606}{1.403}=0.328L=328ml$
