Answer:

The answer to your question is: i have to answer correct first number three and second number one.

Explanation:

1.-regulate cell processes : Nucleic acids are located inside the nucleus and the nucleus is the brain of the cell, it says what functions must be done, then I think this option is correct.

2.- provide structure : Nucleic acids are large molecules but very weak, the couldn't be able to give structure. This option is wrong.

3.- transmit genetic information : The main function of nucleic acids is transmit genetic information, so this option is correct.

4.- fight disease: Nucleic acids are useful to transmit genetic information, and saying the functions a cell must do but fight against diseases is not one of their functions.

A softball is thrown with 145 Joules of kinetic energy. If the ball is moving at 20.0 m/s, what is the mass of the ball in kg?

Tasya [4]

Answer:

0.725 kg

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Kinetic energy of the softball (K): 145 J

Speed of the softball (v): 20.0 m/s

Mass of the softball (m): ?

Step 2: Calculate the mass of the softball

We will use the following expression.

K = 1/2 × m × v²

m = 2 K / v²

m = 2 × 145 J / (20.0 m/s)²

m = 0.725 kg

The mass of the softball is 0.725 kg.

An atom that contains 22 protons,

Westkost [7]

Answer: 45

Explanation:

Recall that mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons. Hence, the mass number of the atom

= 22 + 23

= 45

Furthermore, the atomic number is equal to the number of protons. Hence, since the number of protons is 22. the atom has an atomic number of 22

Thus, An atom that contains 22 protons,

23 neutrons, and 22 electrons would have a mass of approximately 45

There are three sets of sketches below, showing the same pure molecular compound (hydrogen chloride, molecular formula ) at thre

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

The correct answer is - option C.

Explanation:

Given: the melting point of HCl is

-114.8 °C, which suggests that below this temperature HCl will be solid.

and, since the boiling point of HCl is - 85.1 °C. It is also suggested that above this temperature HCl will be gas, Therefore.

Solid -114.8 - Ordered arrangement

Liquid -85.1c - Less orderly arranged

Gaseous - Least orderly arranged

Thus, at —90 °C, HCl will be present 'in the liquid state, At — 1 °C, HCl will be present in the gaseous state and at -129 °C, HCl will be present in the solid-state. So, the molecules will be organized in a more orderly manner .

Thus, the correct answer is - option C
