Answer:

d. Ca_5Br_2

Explanation:

Mass of calcium = 4.00 g

Molar mass of calcium = 40.078 g/mol

<u>Moles of calcium = 4.00 / 40.078 moles = 0.9981 moles</u>

Given that the compound only contains calcium and bromine. So,

Mass of bromine in the sample = Total mass - Mass of calcium

Mass of the sample = 20.0 g

<u>Mass of bromine in sample = 20.0 - 4.00 g = 16.0 g</u>

Molar mass of bromine = 79.904 g/mol

<u>Moles of Bromine  = 16.0 / 79.904  = 0.2002 moles </u>

Taking the simplest ratio for Ca and Br as:

0.9981 : 0.2002  = 5 : 1

The empirical formula is = Ca_5Br_2

Column A 1. Reproduction: Reproduction 2. offspring: offspring 3. gamete: gamete 4. Budding: Budding 5. Binary fission: Binary f
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

1. Reproduction: One or two parents, organisms make new offspring

2. Offspring: A new living organism

3. Gamete: female and male create mini-me by cell division

4. Budding: Hydra

5. Binary fission: Bacteria

6. Zygote: The original cell after egg cell and sperm cell join

7. Fragmentation/Regeneration: Sea star / Planarian

8. Mitosis: Healling and growth occurs in budding

9. Meiosis: Egg or sperm cell/ specialized cells

Explanation:

1. Reproduction is the process by which organisms make new offspring either sexually (involving two parents) or asexually (involving one parent only).

2. An Offspring is a new living organism

3. A gamete is a mature sexual reproductive cell, as a sperm or egg, that unites with another cell to form a new organism. It formed from female and male parents by cell division known as meiosis

4. Budding is a form of asexual reproduction in which a new offspring grows out from a part of the parent. It occurs in Hydra.

5. Biinary fission is a form of asexual reproduction which involves a separation of the parent into two new offspring. It commonly occurs in Bacteria

6. Zygote is the original cell formed after egg cell and sperm cell fuse.

7. Fragmentation/Regeneration: this is a form of reproduction in which a parent splits into fragments which are then able to develop into new organisms. It occurs in Sea star and Planarians

8. Mitosis is a form of cell division which a cell divides into two identical daughter cells with the same genetic components as the parent cell. It functions in healing and growth as well as in budding

9. Meiosis is a type of cell division that results in the production of sex cells or gametes. The number of chromosomes in the parent cell is halved and four gamete cells are produced. Egg or sperm cell/ specialized cells are produced by meiosis.
