What do molecular clocks have to do with reaction rates?

1 answer:

5 0

The atomic clock is a procedure that uses the change rate of biomolecules to reason the time in ancient times when at least two living things veered. A device utilized by developmental scientists to gauge the rate of speciation utilizing changes in DNA.
Change in DNA/time = biological rate

Activities that shows the nature and goals of anthropology,Sociology and Political Science

frez [133]

To answer the question effectively, we will talk about the key words in the question.

ANTHROPOLOGY, SOCIOLOGY AND POLITICAL SCIENCE.

ANTHROPOLOGY; This is the study of human kinds in all times and places,it also entails humanistic study which includes our prehistoric origins and contemporary human diversity as well as topics like social change,globalization,human origin and the world history.

The activities that shows the nature and goals of anthropology includes;

- Looking at ones own culture in a more objective way like an outsider.

- Discovering the things that make people more different from one another.

- Producing new theories and knowledge about human home and their behaviors.

- Discovering/finding out what all people have in common.

There are four fields of anthropology; Linguistic anthropology, Biological anthropology, Archeology and cultural anthropology.

SOCIOLOGY; This is the scientific study of human civilization.

It is systemic and studies of groups and societies that people build

and the effect these have on their behavior.

Sociology greatly focuses on various social connections,

structures, organizations, processes and institutions.

The activities that show the goals and nature of sociology includes;

- Broadening our familiarity on facts about sociology.

- Critically studying the nature of humanity.

- Exposing our minds to the diverse perspectives on attaining the truth.

- Obtaining possible theories about the society.

- Understanding and appreciating that all things in the society are interdependent with each other.

Sociology brings together inputs that are composed of frequent forms and manners,they include; view points, consolidated values, attitudes and the norms of social institutions.

The different branches of sociology are; social psychology,social organisation, applied sociology, population studies, sociological theory and research,human ecology,social change.

POLITICAL SCIENCE; This is a discipline in academics that deals with the study of political processes, institutions, governments and behaviors of people.

It studies the complex behaviors of the people in power, various political actors, such as the government administration, opposition ad the subjects which are the masses.

The standard free energy change for a reaction in an electrolytic cell is always:_________

sattari [20]

Answer: The standard free energy change for a reaction in an electrolytic cell is always positive.

Explanation:

Electrolytic cells use electric currents to drive a non-spontaneous reaction forward.

Relation of standard free energy change and emf of cell

$\Delta G^o=-nFE^0_{cell}$

where,

$\Delta G^o$ = standard free energy change

n= no of electrons gained or lost

F= faraday's constant

$E^0_{cell}$ = standard emf

$E^0_{cell}$ = standard emf = -ve , for non spontaneous reaction

Thus $\Delta G^o=(-ve)(-ve)=+ve$

Thus standard free energy change for a reaction in an electrolytic cell is always positive.

A gas sample is held at constant temperature. What happens to the pressure of the sample if the volume is doubled and the number

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

If the volume is doubled and the number of molecules is doubled, pressure is unchanged

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Temperature = constant

Volume will be doubled

Number of molecules will be doubles

Step 2:

p*V = n*R*T

⇒ gas constant and temperature are constant

Initial pressure = n*R*T / V

Initial pressure = 2*R*T/2

Initial pressure = RT

Final pressure = 4*RT / 4

Final pressure = R*T

If the volume is doubled and the number of molecules is doubled, pressure is unchanged

Someone answer the limited regent...

OleMash [197]

Answer:

20 g Ag

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Stoichiometry

Using Dimensional Analysis

Chemistry - Atomic Structure

Reading a Periodic Table

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

[RxN] Cu (s) + AgNO₃ (aq) → CuNO₃ (aq) + Ag (s)

[Given] 10 g Cu

Step 2: Identify Conversions

[RxN] 1 mol Cu = 1 mol Ag

Molar Mass of Cu - 63.55 g/mol

Molar Mass of Ag - 197.87 g/mol

Step 3: Stoichiometry

$10 \ g \ Cu(\frac{1 \ mol \ Cu}{63.55 \ g \ Cu})(\frac{1 \ mol \ Ag}{1 \ mol \ Cu} )(\frac{197.87 \ g \ Ag}{1 \ mol \ Ag} )$ = 16.974 g Ag

Step 4: Check

We are given 1 sig fig. Follow sig fig rules and round.

16.974 g Ag ≈ 20 g Ag
