“Hydrogen bonding is important in many chemical processes. Hydrogen bonding is responsible for water's unique solvent capabilities. Hydrogen bonds hold complementary strands of DNA together, and they are responsible for determining the three-dimensional structure of folded proteins including enzymes and antibodies.”

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

C.) 35

Explanation:

The mass is made up of the total protons and neutrons in an atom. Protons and neutrons both have a mass of 1 amu. Electrons are not included in this measurement because they have an insignificant mass (practically 0).

(17 protons x 1 amu) + (18 neutrons x 1 amu) = 35 amu

Therefore, if an atom contains 17 protons and 18 neutrons, the mass should be 35 amu.

The pKa of chloroacetic acid is 2.9. If an organic chemist has a 0.10 M aqueous solution of chloroacetic acid at pH 2.4, what pe
Trava [24]

Answer:

The answer is given below.

Explanation:

We will consider the acid as HA and will set up an ICE table with the equilibrium dissociation of α.

AT pH 2.4 the initial H+ concentration will be 3.98^10-3 M

                      HA →              H+         +      A-

Initial concentration:  0.1    →  3.98 ^10-3       +      0

equilibrium concentration:  0.1(1-α) →   3.98 * 10-3 + 0.1α              0.1α

pKa of chloroacetic acid is 2.9

-log(Ka) = 2.9

Ka = 1.26 * 10-3

From the equation, Ka = [H+] * [A-] / [HA]

1.26 * 10-3 = (3.98 * 10-3 + 0.1α )* 0.1α / 0.1(1-α)      

Since α<<1, we assume 1-α = 1

Solving the equation, we have: α = 0.094

Since this is the fraction of acid that has dissociated, we can say that % of base form = 100 * α= 9.4%

Animals inherit traits from their parents. They pass some of these same traits on to their children. Suppose a pair of animals h
Fantom [35]

Answer:

A. The children will be more likely to survive than if they did not have the trait.

Explanation:

Process of elimination

B. It will not affect the children.

Cannot be true, if it didn't impact the children then how would survival of the fittest work?

D. The children will be able to adapt if the environment changes.

That just... not how adapting works when it comes to evolution.

C. The children will be more likely to survive than their parents were

Everyone has the same trait, everyone is equal in that regard.

A. The children will be more likely to survive than if they did not have the trait.

"Suppose a pair of animals has a trait that helps them survive in their environment." The trait helps them survive. Not having the trait makes them less likely to survive. A is correct
