Molecules in all organisms are composed in part of radioactive carbon-14. Which statement best explains the presence of carbon-1
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b, that is, the radioactive isotope reacts in the same way as stable isotopes in the chemical reactions in the body.

Explanation:

The carbon-14 atoms, which are created by the cosmic rays associates with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide that plants captivate naturally and comprise it into plant fibers by the process of photosynthesis. Afterward, the plants are consumed by animals and human beings, thus, they take in carbon-14 as well.  

The ratio of usual carbon-12 to carbon-14 in the air and in all the living species at a particular period is almost the same. These radioactive isotopes react in a similar manner as stable isotopes in the chemical reactions in the body.

A scientist was asked to test the effect of a new vitamin for rats. His
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

D. The data supported the hypothesis

Explanation:

The data shows that rats fed a normal diet with the addition of vitamins gained a higher average weight gain in the period of 3 months, compared to rats fed a normal diet. This supports the scientists' hypothesis of "Young rats that had vitamins added to their food would gain weight faster than young rats fed a normal diet."

Draw the alcohol that is the product of the reduction of 3-methylpentanal.
natali 33 [55]

Answer: The product from the reduction reaction is

CH3-CH2-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH2OH

IUPAC name; 3- Methylpentan-1-ol

Explanation:

Since oxidation is simply the addition of oxygen to a compound and reduction is likewise the addition of hydrogen to a compound.

Therefore, hydrogen is added onto the carbon atom adjacent to oxygen in 3- methyl pentanal

CH3 CH2 CHCH3 CH2 CHO thereby -CHO( aldehyde functional group) are reduced to CH2OH ( Primary alcohol) which gives;

3-methylpenta-1-ol .

The structure of the product is:

CH3-CH2-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH2OH

Classify the following reaction *
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

double replacement

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

       Pb(NO₃)₂  +  2KI   →   PbI₂ +   KNO₃

This reaction is a double displacement reaction.

In this form of reaction, there is an actual exchange of partners to form new compounds.

      AB + CD →  AD + CD

One of the following condition serves as driving force for the reaction:

  • formation of an insoluble compound
  • formation of water or any other non-ionizing compound
  • liberation of a gaseous product.

A cylinder with a moveable piston contains 0.552 mol of gas and has a volume of 259 mL . Part A What will its volume be if an ad
Naddik [55]

Answer:

The new volume will be 367mL

Explanation:

Using PV = nRT

V1 = 259mL = 0.000259L

n1 = 0.552moles

At constant temperature and pressure, the value is

P * 0.000259 = 0.552 * RT ------equation 1

= 0.552 / 0.000259

= 2131.274

V2 = ?

n2 = 0.552 + 0.232

n2 = 0.784mole

Using ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

P * V2 = 0.784 * RT ---------- equation 2

Combining equations 1 and 2 we have;

V2 = 0.784 / 2131.274

V2 = 0.000367L

V2 = 367mL
