Prior to the Industrial Revolution, the majority of the population in England consisted of the light colored variation. The dark

colored moth became the dominant variation by the end of the 20th century and remained so for almost 100 years. Today, the light colored variation is dominant again. What is the best explanation for this?

Dark colored moths survived better in the Industrial Revolution because their dark color helped them camouflage in soot. When the industrial revolution ended there wasn't as much soot, so the light colored moths now had a better chance of survival.

The titration of Na2CO3 with HCl has the following qualitative profile: a. Identify the major species in solution at points A-F.
exis [7]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Solution:

Note: This question is incomplete and lacks very important data to solve this question. But I have found the similar question which shows the profiles about which question discusses. Using the data from that question, I have solved the question.

a) We need to find the major species from A to F.

Major Species at A:

1. Na_{2} CO_{3}

Major Species at B:

1. Na_{2} CO_{3}

2. NaHCO_{3}

Major Species at C:

1. NaHCO_{3}

Major Species at D:

1. NaHCO_{3}

2. H_{2}CO_{3}

Major Species at E:

1. H_{2}CO_{3}

Major Species at F:

1. H_{2}CO_{3}

b) pH calculation:

At Halfway point B:

pH = pKa_{1} + log[CO_{3}.^{-2}]/[HCO_{3}.^{-1}]

pH = pKa_{1} = 6.35

Similarly, at halfway point D.  

At point D,

pH = pKa_{2} + log [HCO_{3}.^{-1}]/[H2CO_{3}]

pH = pKa_{2} = 10.33

If we put 1g samples of all four of these into a hot oven, which would absorb the most heat in order to reach 100 degrees Celsiu
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Ice

Explanation:

The Ice would absorb heat to change the temperature from anything below 1 degree celsius in order to become liquid water. After being a liquid water it'd absorb further amount of energy in order to increase it's temperature to 100 degrees. Therefore, the Ice absorb more water

A closed system initially containing 1×10^-3 hydrogen 2×10^-3M iodine at 448 degree Celsius and is allowed to reach equilibrium.
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Kc = 50.5

Explanation:

We determine the reaction:

H₂  +  I₂   ⇄   2HI

Initially we have 0.001 molesof H₂

and 0.002 moles of I₂

If we have produced 0.00187 moles of HI in the equilibrium we have to know, how many moles of I₂ and H₂, have reacted.

           H₂     +      I₂      ⇄   2HI

In:     0.001       0.002           -

R:       x                 x                2x

Eq:  0.001-x    0.002-x      0.00187  

x = 0.00187/2 = 9.35×10⁻⁴ moles that have reacted

So in the equilibrium we have:

0.001 - 9.35×10⁻⁴ = 6.5×10⁻⁵  moles of H₂

0.002 - 9.35×10⁻⁴ = 1.065×10⁻³ moles of I₂

Expression for Kc is =  (HI)² / (H₂) . (I₂)

0.00187 ² /  6.5×10⁻⁵ . 1.065×10⁻³ = 50.5

How many total atoms are in 0.680 g of P₂O5?
Ludmilka [50]

Answer: 2.88×10^{24}atoms P_{2}O_{5}

Explanation: First, using stoichiometry, we must convert this from grams to moles, then from moles to atoms.

1. For the first step, we should also look at the periodic table to find the molar mass of the compound, then use that as the denominator.

0.680g P_{2} O_{5} *\frac{1molP_{2} O_{5} }{141.948gP_{2} O_{5} } =4.79mol P_{2} O_{5}

2. Now that it is converted to moles, we must convert it to atoms by multiplying it by Avogadro's number.

4.79molP_{2} O_{5} *\frac{6.022X10^{23} }{1mol} =2.88*10^{24}

With this information, we know that there are 2.88X10^{24} total atoms in 0.680 grams P_{2} O_{5}.

I hope this helps! Pls give brainliest!! :)

Choose the correct net ionic equation for the reaction (if a reaction occurs) between CaCl2 and AgNO3: Group of answer choices
Levart [38]

Answer:

2Ag⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) -> 2AgCl(s)

Explanation:

Silver nitrate and calcium chloride will react in a double displacement reaction (which has to produce a precipitate, a gas, or water to have a reaction).

This reaction will produce a silver chloride precipitate and a solution of calcium nitrate.

The reaction will be 2AgNO3(aq) + CaCl2(aq) -> 2AgCl(s) + Ca(NO3)2(aq)

To write a net ionic equation:

1. Write the balanced molecular equation.

   2AgNO3 + CaCl2 -> 2AgCl(ppt) + Ca(NO3)2

2. Write the balanced complete ionic equation.

To write the complete ionic equation:

- Start with a balanced molecular equation.

2AgNO3(aq) + CaCl2(aq) -> 2AgCl(s) + Ca(NO3)2(aq)

- Break all soluble strong electrolytes (compounds with (aq) beside them) into their ions

       indicate the correct formula and charge of each ion

       indicate the correct number of each ion

       write (aq) after each ion

- Bring down all compounds with (s), (l), or (g) unchanged.

2Ag⁺(aq) + 2NO³⁻(aq) + Ca²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) -> 2AgCl(s) + Ca²⁺(aq) + 2NO³⁻(aq)

3. Cross out the spectator ions that are present. Spectator ions are ions that are present in the reaction mixture but do not participate in it. You can recognize spectator ions by looking for ions that are present on both sides of the equation.

4. Write the "leftovers" as the net ionic equation.

2Ag⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) -> 2AgCl(s)
