How did seed availability affect traits of individuals in the medium ground finch population of the galapagos islands

Chemistry

vodomira [7]3 years ago

A little background may help understand this question better: The Galapagos Islands is home to a lot of species but particular interest here is only the finches and their beak sizes. We have the cactus finch that has a long beak well suited for accessing blossoms; the tree finch with parrot-shaped beaks suited for finding insects underneath the barks of trees; and, the ground finch with beaks suited for eating seeds.

Grant and colleagues studied the medium ground finch in order to observe natural selection at work. Medium ground finch were perfect to study because the only major factor that affected their hypothesized evolution was the climate, which <em>affected food availability. </em>The researchers observed that when food became scarce and only <em>large seeds were present</em><em>, </em>only the finch with bigger beaks were able to survive. Those with smaller beaks died of starvation because they could not eat the big seeds. Time went on, and when the researchers measure beak size, they found a significant change in size compared to previous generations.

With the Haber process, how many grams of hydrogen will be needed to make 0.3820 pounds of ammonia? Needed to 3 decimal places f
masya89 [10]

30.576 g of hydrogen

Explanation:

First we need to covert the pound in grams.

if        1 pound is equal to 453.592 grams

then  0.3820 pounds is equal to X grams

X = (0.3820 ×  453.592) / 1 = 173.272 grams

So we have 173.272 grams of ammonia.

Now we look at the chemical reaction where hydrogen (H₂) reacts with nitrogen (N₂) to produce ammonia (NH₃):

3 H₂ + N₂ → 2 NH₃

number of moles = mass / molar weight

number of moles of ammonia = 173.272 / 17 = 10.192 moles

Now taking in account the chemical reaction, we formulate the following reasoning:

if         3 moles of hydrogen produce 2 moles of ammonia

then    Y moles of hydrogen produce 10.192 moles of ammonia

Y = (3 × 10.192) / 2 = 15.288 moles of hydrogen

mass = number of moles × molar weight

mass of hydrogen = 15.288 × 2 = 30.576 g
