The atmospheric gas that forms a mild acid when dissolved in water is carbon dioxide. <span> The inscription on a marble gravestone to become harder and harder to read over time is caused by chemical weathering. Biological evolution is NOT a factor that affects the rate of weathering in rocks.</span>

The answers are;

  1. Carbon dioxide
  2. Chemical weathering
  3. Biological Evolution


1. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere mixes with rainwater for form carbonic acid;

CO2 + H2O  H2CO3 (a reversible reaction)

It is a weak acid because it dissociates partly in water with a pH of about 5.



2. Chemical weathering on the marble gravestone is due to rain. The rain is slightly acid because it has to dissolve carbon dioxide to form carbonic acid. The carbonic acid dissolves marble  (composed of largely calcium carbonate);

H2CO3 + CaCO3  Ca(HCO3)2 aq (CaHCO2 is soluble)



3. Biological evolution does not affect weathering of rock. Climate does. The higher the temperatures the rainfall, the higher the rate of weathering. Soft rocks like limestone are easily eroded by rainwater that rocks like quartz. The higher the surface area of rock exposed to these elements the higher their rate of weathering.

In the reaction glucose + fructose → sucrose + water, _____ is a reactant and _____ is a product. View Available Hint(s) Hint 1.
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The correct answers are: Glucose, Sucrose.

Explanation:

  • The given question is an example of a Chemical Reaction.
  • A Chemical Reaction can be defined as the process by which two or more substances interact with each other in such a way that a rearrangement of chemical bonds and molecular position occurs in them. This alteration in bonds and molecular position results in the formation of a new substance.
  • In a chemical reaction, the substances which are responsible for interacting with each other are called the Reactants.
  • In a chemical reaction, the new substances those are formed are called the Products.
  • A Chemical Reaction can be represented as follows:

                                W  +   X   →   Y +  Z.

  • Here, W and X are reacting to form Y and Z.
  • So, W and X are the Reactants.
  • Y and Z are the Products.
  • As the Reactants react to form the Products, so the arrow → is represented from the Reactant to the Product.
  • In the given question,

                           glucose + fructose → sucrose + water

  • As arrow → always direct from Reactants to the Products, so the left side of the arrow will be the reactants and the right side of the arrow will be the products.
  • Hence, the Reactants are Glucose and Fructose.
  • The Products are Sucrose and Water.
  • So, Glucose and Fructose undergo chemical reaction to form Sucrose and Water.

In samples of DNA isolated from two unidentified species in bacteria, X and Y adenine makes up 32% and 17%, respectively, of the
Vikki [24]

Answer:

On the basis of Chargaff's rule, in a double-helical DNA, A = T and G = C (Here A means adenine, T means thymine, G means guanine, and C means cytosine. For X, A is given 32%, therefore, T must be 32%, and the leftover 36% is to be distributed equally between G and C. Thus, G = C = 18% each.  

The assumption formed is that the DNA is a double-stranded structure. The species that exhibits higher G + C content in the molecule of a DNA is steadier at higher temperatures as it melts at high temperature. The species Y, which exhibits G + C in total as 66% is the thermophilic bacterium between the two.
