Answer:

When sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is added to water (H2O), heat will be released.

Explanation:

NaOH+H2O= Na+ and OH- ions.

Sodium hydroxide is a base and can disassociate in water.

The heat released is due to the OH- ions stability. Is the result of the chemical species being brought to a lower energy state. Also as it is a very strong phenomenon, it can be used as a moisture absorber.

I hope it helps!

1. NaOH dissociates in water.
2. NaOH is a base.

That's what I get from that. NaOH must dissociate in water to raise the concentration of anything, and it must be basic, otherwise it would raise the hydronium concentration or nothing at all.

How would you describe the relationship that gravity has with mass and distance.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Mass does not affect gravity and distance has an indirect relationship.

Explanation:

The equation for gravity is, g = $\frac{GM}{R^{2} }$

where, G = gravitational constant

M = mass of the planet

R = distance between the bodies (object and center of planet)

so, gravity depends on the mass of planet, not on mass of object

and is inversely proportional to sqaure of distance.

Explain Mendel's law of independent assortment and how the 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio among the F2 of a dihybrid cross provides ev

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mendel's law of independent assortment state that two different genes assort independently in gamete formation.

To reach this conclusion, one has to do a dihybrid cross. This means that two genes responsible for different traits need to be analyzed at the same time.

1) Starting with a parental generation of a cross between two pure lines (homozygous for both genes) with different traits, a plant with yellow and round seeds (YYRR) and another with green and wrinkled seeds (yyrr). The F1 will be phenotypically homogeneous (yellow and round), and genotypically heterozygous (YyRr).

2) If the individuals from the F1 are crossed with one another, we have to do a Punnett Square to determine the phenotypic ratio of the F2.

If the genes assort independently, the F1 individuals will produce their different gametes with the same probability. Each possible gamete will appear in a 1/4 proportion: YR, Yr, yR, yr.
The 9:3:3:1 ratio is a result of analyzing the possible phenotypes that result from the dihybrid cross.

See the attached image for an illustration of the crosses in each generation and the Punnett Square.
