#1
The correct answer is A.)

Because the animal has sperm that means that the offspring will be different. This is because at conception, the two parents sex cells combine their DNA to make a new creature.

#2
The correct answer is B.)

Genetic variation produces different offspring, and some are more adapted to others. The ones that survive pass on their genes. This is know as "Survival of the Fittest". Asexually organisms are exactly like their parents, so if they have any type of genetic defaults, then their offspring will get them too.

Hope this helps!

Why does buck ministerfullerene act as a good lubricant

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Its molecules are made up of 60 carbon atoms joined together by strong covalent bonds. Molecules of C 60 are spherical. There are weak intermolecular forces between molecules of buckminsterfullerene. These need little energy to overcome, so buckminsterfullerene is slippery and has a low melting point.

In atmospheric chemistry, the following chemical reaction converts SO2, the predominant oxide of sulfur that comes from combusti

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information;

The chemical reaction can be well presented as follows:

$\mathtt{SO_{2(g)} + \dfrac{1}{2}O_{2(g)} }$ ⇄ $\mathtt{3SO_{2(l)}}$

Now, K is known to be the equilibrium constant and it can be represented in terms of each constituent activity:

i.e

$K = \dfrac{a_{so_3}}{a_{so_2} a_{o_2}^{\frac{1}{2}}}$

However, since we are dealing with liquids solutions;

$K = \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{Pso_2}{P^0}\Big ( \dfrac{Po_2}{P^0} \Big)^{1/2}}$ since the activity of $a_{so_3}$ is equivalent to 1

Hence, under standard conditions(i.e at a pressure of 1 bar)

$K = \dfrac{1}{Pso_2Po_2^{1/2}}$

(b)

From the CRC Handbook, we are meant to determine the value of the Gibb free energy by applying the formula:

$\Delta _{rxn} G^o = \sum \Delta_f \ G^o (products) - \sum \Delta_fG^o (reactants) \\ \\ = (1) (-368 \ kJ/mol) - (\dfrac{1}{2}) (0) - ((1) (-300.13 \ kJ/mol)) \\ \\ = -368 \ kJ/mol + 300.13 \ kJ/mol \\ \\ \simeq -68 \ kJ/mol$

Thus, for this reaction; the Gibbs frree energy = -68 kJ/mol

(c)

Le's recall that:

At equilibrium, the instantaneous free energy is usually zero &

Q(reaction quotient) is equivalent to K(equilibrium constant)

So;

$\mathtt{\Delta _{rxn} G = \Delta _{rxn} G^o + RT In Q}$

$\mathtt{0- \Delta _{rxn} G^o = RTIn K } \\ \\ \mathtt{ \Delta _{rxn} G^o = -RTIn K } \\ \\ K = e^{\dfrac{\Delta_{rxn} G^o}{RT}} \\ \\ K = e^{^{\dfrac{67900 \ J/mol}{8.314 \ J/mol \times 298 \ K}} }$

$K =7.98390356\times 10^{11} \\ \\ \mathbf{K = 7.98 \times 10^{11}}$

(d)

The direction by which the reaction will proceed can be determined if we can know the value of Q(reaction quotient).

This is because;

If Q < K, then the reaction will proceed in the right direction towards the products.

However, if Q > K , then the reaction goes to the left direction. i.e to the reactants.

So;

$Q= \dfrac{1}{Pso_2Po_2^{1/2}}$

Since we are dealing with liquids;

$Q= \dfrac{1}{1 \times 1^{1/2}}$

Q = 1

Since Q < K; Then, the reaction proceeds in the right direction.

Hence, SO2 as well O2 will combine to yield SO3, then condensation will take place to form liquid.
