Answer:

95 %

99.7 %

Explanation:

\mu = 166 cm = Mean

\sigma = 5 cm =  Standard deviation

a) 156 cm and 176 cm

166-5\times 2=156

166+5\times 2=176

From the empirical rule 95% of all values are within 2 standard deviation of the mean, so about 95% of men are between 156 cm and 176 cm.

b) 151 cm and 181 cm

166-5\times 3 =151

166+5\times 3=181

The empirical rule tells us that about 99.7% of all values are within 3 standard deviations of the mean, so about 99.7% of men are between 151 cm and 181 cm.

Why is Darwin criticized for his theory? and who were they
kondaur [170]

A few people criticized Darwin for his theory, such as the left-leaning biologists Stephen Jay Gould and Richard Lewontin, who fear the political implications of Darwinian theory. They fear that evolutionary theory, even when bolstered by modern genetics, and molecular biology, does not make reality probable enough.

______ is the percent ionization of a weak acid in water increases as the concentration of acid decreases.
Nuetrik [128]

The ratio of concentration of ionized acid to the initial concentration of acid multiplied by 100 will give the percent ionization of a weak acid in water increases as the concentration of acid decreases.

Explanation:

Percent ionization is used for quantifying the number of ions present in the weak acid when dissolved in a solution. So it is similar to the pKa value. The percent ionization value can be determined as negative log of dissociation constant. Also the as the number of ions increases in weak acid, the concentration of acid will be decreasing . It can be calculated using the formula for percent ionization as follows:

Percent ionization = \frac{Ionized acid concentration}{Initial concentration of acid} * 100

As the water volume or concentration increases, the acid will get diluted much more thus leading to decrease in the concentration of acid.

So the ratio of concentration of ionized acid to the initial concentration of acid multiplied by 100 will give the percent ionization of a weak acid in water increases as the concentration of acid decreases.
