Quartz is a substance because the material has uniform properties throughout and is held together via chemical bonds.
The volume of hydrogen gas that evolved is calculated as follows
by use of ideal gas equation
that is PV = nRT
P=745 mm hg
V= ?
R(gas constant)= 62.36 L.mm hg/mol.k
T= 20 + 273 = 293 k
n=number of moles which is calculated as follows
find the moles of Na used
= 0.52/23=0.023 moles
write the reacting equation
2Na +2H2O =2NaOH +H2
by use of reacting ratio between Na : H2 which is 2:1 therefore the mole of H2 = 0.023/2 =0.0115 moles
by making the volume the subject of the formula
v=nRT/P
V= (0.0115 x 62.36 x 293) / 745 = 0.283 L
This is the definition of a DNA mutation.
Depending on which part of the genome is affected, the consequences of a mutation may vary. A mutation is said to be hereditary if the mutated genetic sequence is transmitted to the next generation (see germinal mutations). It is one of the elements of biodiversity and one of the many factors that may be involved in the evolution of the species.
