Answer: Dichotomous
Using a Dichotomous Key to Identify Organisms
A dichotomous key is a tool used by biologists to identify organisms in a group through a process of answering yes or no questions about the organism. Dichotomous means 'divided into two parts', as each question about an organism has two choices.
Answer:
Explanation:
Your strategy here will be to
use the chemical formula of carbon dioxide to find the number of molecules of
CO
2
that would contain that many atoms of oxygen
use Avogadro's constant to convert the number of molecules to moles of carbon dioxide
use the molar mass of carbon dioxide to convert the moles to grams
So, you know that one molecule of carbon dioxide contains
one atom of carbon,
1
×
C
two atoms of oxygen,
2
×
O
This means that the given number of atoms of oxygen would correspond to
4.8

22
atoms O

1 molecule CO

Now, one mole of any molecular substance contains exactly
6.022
⋅
10
22
molecules of that substance -- this is known as Avogadro's constant.
In your case, the sample of carbon dioxide molecules contains
2.4

⋅
1 mole CO

6.022

=
0.03985 moles CO

Finally, carbon dioxide has a molar mass of
44.01 g mol
−

, which means that your sample will have a mass of
0.03985
moles CO

The answer is rounded to two sig figs, the number of sig figs you have for the number of atoms of oxygen present in the sample.
There are 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms, and 11 oxygen atoms in one molecule of C12H22O11.
In five molecules there are 60 carbon atoms, 110 hydrogen atoms, and 55 oxygen atoms.
I literally hate chem but I think it’s ionic, I’m not not completely sure but it kinda sounds about right . Not the best anwser haha hope it kinda helps lol
