Answer:

Polymerase Chain reaction is a method used by scientists to making A LOT (millions to billions) of copies of a DNA sample which then allows scientists to take a small of that DNA and increase the amount to a very large amount to study the DNA into further detail.

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)

   Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a technique for replicating or copying a specific portion of a DNA strand; leads to millions of copies of the DNA segment technique for replicating or copying a specific portion of a DNA strand; leads to millions of copies of the DNA segment.

2.00g of Copper wire was added to 50.0 mL of a 0.050M solution of Silver Nitrate. The reaction
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Now, the equation of the reaction is;

Cu(s) + 2AgNO3(aq) --------> Cu(NO3)3 (aq) + 2Ag(s)

Number of moles of silver precipitate = 0.24/108 g/mol= 0.0022 moles

Number of moles of AgNO3 = 50/1000 * 0.050 = 0.0025 Moles

If 2 moles of AgNO3 yields 2 moles of Ag

Then  0.0025 moles of AgNO3 yields  0.0025 * 2/2 = 0.0025 moles of Ag

Number of moles of Cu = 2.00g/63.5 g/mol = 0.03 moles

If 1 mole of Cu yields 2 moles of Ag

0.03 moles of Cu yields  0.03 moles * 2/1 = 0.06 moles of Ag

Hence AgNO3 is the limiting reactant

Theoretical yield of Ag = 0.0025 moles of Ag * 108 = 0.27 g

Actual yield of Ag = 0.24 g

Percent yield = actual yield/theoretical yield * 100

Percent yield = 0.24/0.27 * 100

Percent yield = 88.8%

Nickel(ii) chloride dissolves in water to form a light green solution. what ions are present in solution—that is, what is "swimm
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Hello!

The ions that are present in solution are Ni⁺²(aq) and Cl⁻(aq)

Why?

When an ionic substance like Nickel Chloride (NiCl₂) dissolves in water, it dissociates into the individual ions that form the substance. Water molecules surround then the individual ions in a process called solvation.

It can be represented in the following chemical equation:

NiCl₂(s) → Ni⁺²(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq)

Have a nice day!
