Describe Dr. Vellend's unifying theory of ecological communities (the factors that determine community structure). Where do conc

Answer and Explanation:

Community ecology is a discipline that studies the organism's communities and the manner in which populations of species interact with each other within a particular habitat. Mark Vellend is an eco-evolutionist that developed a theoretical framework of ecological communities from a unified functional perspective. This theory is based on four forces of evolutionary biology: selection, drift, dispersal and speciation. This theory is used to explain how species interactions including parasitism, competition and predation may influence population fluctuations. On the other hand, this theoretical framework can also be used to understand how colonization, disturbance and habitat suitability components alter the dynamics of interacting species.

How many grams of solute are needed to make 250 mL of a 2.055 M NaCl solution?
Veronika [31]

Answer:

30grams

Explanation:

To calculate the mass (number of grams of the solute) in the solution, we need to calculate the number of moles it contains first. We use the formula;

M = n÷ V

Where; M= Molarity or Molar concentration = 2.055M

n= number of moles= ?

V= Volume = 250mL

Volume in L is 250/1000 = 0.250L

n= M × V

n= 2.055 × 0.250

n= 0.51375moles

The mass is calculated using :

Mole (n) = mass (m) / molar mass (MM)

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5

= 58.5g/mol

Mass = molar mass × mole

Mass = 58.5 × 0.51375

Mass = 30.0543

Therefore, the mass is 30grams
