Answer:

Litmus paper-<em>" A tool or system to measure a substance characteristics regarding there pH. As to check whether they are acidic, basic or neutral in nature."</em>

  • A certain paper which is termed as litmus paper is stained with litmus, and then a certain substance which is under observation is stained over it. And then its properties are measured.
  • The standard provided to us shows us that pH recorded lower then 7 is acidic in nature, leveled at 7 is neutral and higher then 7 is termed as a basic substance.

Explanation:

  • Now, if the if the substance stained on a blue litmus paper is acidic then it turns in to red.
  • And if its a basic or alkaline substance then the red litmus paper is turned blue.

10 ml of a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution is added to five test tubes. As the hydrogen peroxide decomposes to produce oxygen gas,
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

D) Iron compounds are a catalyst for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.

Explanation:

The reaction of descomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) to produce oxygen (O₂) is:

2H₂O₂ → 2H₂O + O₂

Based on the data of potential catalys effects on reaction rate:

A) Iron compounds are always used as catalysts.  <em>FALSE. </em>It is possible to know that, for this reaction, iron compounds are acting as catalyst but there is no information about all reactions to know that iron compounds are always catalysy

B) Reaction rate is always increased by iron compounds.  <em>FALSE. </em>Again, for this reaction iron compounds increases reaction rate but it is not possible to know that reaction rate is always increased by iron compounds.

C) Increasing the temperature increases the rate of decomposition.  <em>FALSE. </em>There is no information about temperature of reaction.

D) Iron compounds are a catalyst for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. <em>TRUE. </em>As both iron compounds increases the rate of reaction, it is possible to say that iron compounds are a catalyst for the descomposition of hydrogen peroxide.

I hope it helps!

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option (d) "both b and c".

Explanation:

Experimental model organisms used in scientific investigations have to fulfill certain criteria in order to be useful in the laboratory. Two of the desired characteristics are being able to reproduce quickly and with enough number of offspring in order to study genetic behaviors. <em>Arabidopsis thaliana</em> characteristics of being able to reproduce in 8–10 weeks and producing thousands of offspring per plant (because it can produce thousands of seeds) makes it a model flowering plant for experimental studies.

Having multiple types of interactions within an ecosystem means that the ecosystem is __________ (less healthy/more healthy)
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

What are the interactions in an ecosystem?

Species interactions within ecological webs include four main types of two-way interactions: mutualism, commensalism, competition, and predation (which includes herbivory and parasitism). Because of the many linkages among species within a food web, changes to one species can have far-reaching effects.
