Chemistry
1 answer:
svlad2 [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<em>The correct option is B)  a gradual change of the traits of a species over time</em>

Explanation:

The theory of natural selection explains the gradual changes which occur in the population of a species over time. According to natural selection, those organisms which are better adapted to live in an environment survive and pass on their traits to their offsprings. As a result, the traits of a species tend to change over time through the process of evolution. Evolutionary changes do not occur rapidly, instead, they can take many years to occur.

Are the following statements true or false? (a) Formal charges represent an actual separation of charges. true false (b) ΔH o rx
katrin [286]

Answer:

Explanation:

A) Formal charges represent an actual separation of charges.(FALSE)

(B) ΔHo rxn can be estimated from the bond enthalpies of reactants and products.(TRUE)

C)All second-period elements obey the octet rule in their compounds(FALSE).

(D)The resonance structures of a molecule can be separated from one another in the laboratory.(FALSE)

Bond enthalpy which is also reffered to as bond energy is the amount of energy that is required to break one mole of a bond.

taking the single bond between Oxygen and Hydrogen into considerationthe bond energy between their single bond is 463 kJ/mol.

formal charge is used for the comparison of the number of electrons present around an atom in a particular molecule with the number of electrons present around a neutral

Identify the main purpose of the Periodic Table. *
saw5 [17]

The periodic table is one of the most important tools in the history of chemistry. It describes the atomic properties of every known chemical element in a concise format, including the atomic number, atomic mass and relationships between the elements. Elements with similar chemical properties are arranged in columns in the periodic table.

The table thus is a quick reference as to what elements may behave the same chemically or which may have similar weights or atomic structures.

Hope this answer helps you
