How many oxygen atoms are in 68.8mg Na₂S₂O₃ 5H₂O

1 answer:

5 0

It should be 8 O atoms. 3O atoms in Na2S2O3 and 5O atom in 5H2O. The reason there are 5 O atoms are because the 5 in front of H2O means you multiply each atom in the compound by that number (like the distributive property). The H2 molecule becomes 10 Hydrogen atoms (5*2) and the Oxygen becomes 5 Oxygen atoms (5*1). Then you add the 5O atoms to the 3O atoms which equals 8

Answer:

Genetic equilibrium is the state in which allele frequencies do

not change in a generation over generation.

Explanation:

Genetic equilibrium can be described as a situation which arises when a certain allele or genotype remains constant for a species generation over generations. Genetic equilibrium can be maintained if no external factors like mutations affect the population of the species. The phenomenon of natural selection and evolution need to be stopped if a genetic equilibrium is to be maintained. Hardy-Weinberg theorem is the mathematical depiction of genetic equilibrium.
