Which of the following BEST describes the process of evolution by natural selection?

Chemistry
1 answer:
svlad2 [7]2 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.

Which type of acetylcholine receptor is present on postganglionic neurons
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Mescarinic and Nicotinic

Explanation:

Postganglionic fibers can be present in both sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions, their main difference resides in how in the sympathetic division the postganglionic fibers are adrenergic and use norepinephrine (noradrenalin) as a neurotransmitter, in the parasympathetic division, on the other hand, fibers are cholinergic and use acetylcholine as a neurotransmitter, the<em> postganglionic neurons of sweat glands release acetylcholine for the activation of muscarinic receptors, another kind of receptor for acetylcholine are nicotinic receptors </em>that act as transmembrane sodium/potassium channels, while muscarinic receptors need to act through intracellular proteins.

I hope you find this informatiou useful and interesting! Good luck!

If 16.00 g of O₂ reacts with 80.00 g NO, how many the excess reactant are left over? (enter only the value, round to whole numbe
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

50

Explanation:

We will need a balanced equation with masses, moles, and molar masses of the compounds involved.

1. Gather all the information in one place with molar masses above the formulas and masses below them.  

Mᵣ:           30.01     32.00   46.01

               2NO   +   O₂ ⟶ 2NO₂

Mass/g:  80.00     16.00

2. Calculate the moles of each reactant  

\text{moles of NO} = \text{80.00 g NO} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol NO}}{\text{30.01 g NO}} = \text{2.666 mol NO}\\\\\text{moles of O}_{2} = \text{16.00 g O}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol O}_{2}}{\text{32.00 g O}_{2}} = \text{0.5000 mol O}_{2}

3. Calculate the moles of NO₂ we can obtain from each reactant

From NO:

The molar ratio is 2 mol NO₂:2 mol NO

\text{Moles of NO}_{2} = \text{2.333 mol NO} \times \dfrac{\text{2 mol NO}_{2}}{\text{2 mol NO}} = \text{2.333 mol NO}_{2}

From O₂:

The molar ratio is 2 mol NO₂:1 mol O₂

\text{Moles of NO}_{2} =  \text{0.5000 mol O}_{2}\times \dfrac{\text{2 mol NO}_{2}}{\text{1 mol Cl}_{2}} = \text{1.000 mol NO}_{2}

4. Identify the limiting and excess reactants

The limiting reactant is O₂ because it gives the smaller amount of NO₂.

The excess reactant is NO.

5. Mass of excess reactant

(a) Moles of NO reacted

The molar ratio is 2 mol NO:1 mol O₂

\text{Moles reacted} = \text{0.500 mol O}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{2 mol NO}}{\text{1 mol O}_{2}} = \text{1.000 mol NO}

(b) Mass of NO reacted

\text{Mass reacted} = \text{1.000 mol NO} \times \dfrac{\text{30.01 g NO}}{\text{1 mol NO}} = \text{30.01 g NO}

(c) Mass of NO remaining

Mass remaining = original mass – mass reacted = (80.00 - 30.01) g = 50 g NO

A 25.0 ml sample of 0.150 m benzoic acid is titrated with a 0.150 m naoh solution. what is the ph at the equivalence point? the
Ad libitum [116K]

Solution:

At the equivalence point, moles NaOH = moles benzoic acid  

HA + NaOH ==> NaA + H2O where HA is benzoic acid  

At the equivalence point, all the benzoic acid ==> sodium benzoate  

A^- + H2O ==> HA + OH- (again, A^- is the benzoate anion and HA is the weak acid benzoic acid)  

Kb for benzoate = 1x10^-14/4.5x10^-4 = 2.22x10^-11  

Kb = 2.22x10^-11 = [HA][OH-][A^-] = (x)(x)/0.150  

x^2 = 3.33x10^-12  

x = 1.8x10^-6 = [OH-]  

pOH = -log [OH-] = 5.74  

pH = 14 - pOH = 8.26
