In summary, a heritable characteristic that helps an animal or plant to have more offspring which survive to reproduce will tend

to become more common in a population as a result of evolution by natural selection. PROMPT: Explain why a characteristic which helps an animal to live longer will generally tend to become more common in the population as a result of evolution by natural selection.

A characteristic which helps an animal to live longer will generally tend to become more common in the population because as the animal produces more offspring those traits are passed down to them. Eventually it will be a common characteristic in the population.

Hope that helped :)

Describe the physical and chemical weathering​
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Physical weathering is caused by purely mechanical changes to the rock, while chemical weathering is caused by chemical reactions.

Explanation:

Chemical weathering happens when the chemicals get diluted and dissolved in water and seep and percolate down the rock surfaces.

Physical weathering happens when rocks are fragmented into minor fragments while ensuring no alterations in their chemical makeup. The main causes behind physical weathering include spontaneous fluctuations in temperature like too high or too low heat or cold

in a given homologous series of hydrocarbons, the boiling point generally increases as the size of the molecules increases. the
vitfil [10]

The boiling point of hydrocarbons generally increases as the size of the molecules increases because more bonds are needs to be broken in larger organic molecules.

<h3>What are hydrocarbons?</h3>

Hydrocarbons are organic compounds which here composed of hydrogen and carbon alone.

Hydrocarbons are grouped into families or homologous series based on a reactive group known as the gincyiial group

The homologous series include

  • alkanes
  • alkenes
  • alkynes

The boiling point generally increases as the size of the molecules increases because more bonds are needs to be broken in larger organic molecules.

Julie takes a cold glass of clear, colorless liquid out of the refrigerator and puts it on the table. As the liquid warms up to
marysya [2.9K]
The bubbles indicate that there is a gas dissolved in the liquid, which may remain dissolved when the liquid is very cold, inside the refrigerator.


When the temperature of the liquid increases, it reduces its ability to dissolve the gas and the gas escapes (bubbles) from the liquid.


At the end, the behavior of the liquid permits  you to conclude that the  liquid is a mixture because it has a gas dissolved in it.

Iron has a density of 7.86 g/cm3. Calculate the volume (in dL) of a piece of iron having a mass of 4.07 kg . Note that the densi
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The volume of the piece of iron is 5.18dL.

Explanation:

The density (ρ) is equal to the mass (m) divided the volume (V).

\rho = \frac{m}{V}

If we rearrange it, we have:

V=\frac{m}{\rho }

To express the volume in dL we will need the following relations:

  • 1 dL = 0.1 L
  • 1 kg = 10³ g
  • 1 cm³ = 1 mL
  • 1mL = 10⁻³L

Then,

\rho = \frac{7.86g}{cm^{3} } .\frac{1cm^{3} }{1mL} .\frac{1mL}{10^{-3}L } .\frac{1kg}{10^{3}g } =7.86kg/L

Finally,

V=\frac{m}{\rho }=\frac{4.07kg}{7.86 kg/L} =0.518L.\frac{1dL}{0.1L} =5.18dL

A student preforms a chemical reaction in which 35 grams of hydrogen and 65 grams of oxygen reacted to form water. What is the m
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Mass of water = 73.08 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of hydrogen = 35 g

Mass of oxygen = 65 g

Mass of water = ?

Solution:

First of all we will write the balanced chemical equation:

2H₂  + O₂   →    2H₂O

Number of moles of hydrogen = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles of hydrogen =  35 g/ 2 g/mol

Number of moles of hydrogen = 17.5 mol

Number of moles of oxygen = 65 g / 32 g/mol

Number of moles of oxygen = 2.03 moles

Now we compare the moles of water with moles hydrogen and oxygen.

                                     H₂               :              H₂O

                                      2                :                2

                                    17.5              :              17.5

                                       O₂             :            H₂O

                                      1                :               2

                                      2.03         :             2× 2.03 =4.06 mol

Number of moles of water produced by oxygen are less so oxygen is limitting reactant.

Mass of water:

           Mass of water = number of moles × molar mass

          Mass of water = 4.06 mol × 18 g/mol

           Mass of water = 73.08 g
