<span>The answer is: more protons than neutrons The stability of the nucleus is based on the ratio of neutrons and protons present in the nucleus. if the number of protons is equal to the number neutrons then the nucleus is stable but in case the number of protons is more than the number neutrons or the other way round the nucleus to gain stability starts interconversion of neutron to proton or electron or decreases proton numbers. In case of nucleus containing high energy, the nucleus releases it. Such nuclei which release energy to gain stability are called radioactive nuclei and the phenomenon is called radioactivity.</span>

When a solution containing 1.4000 g of Ba(NO3)2 and 2.4000 g of HSO3NH2 is boiled, a precipitate forms. One possible identity fo
Georgia [21]

Answer:

See explanation for detailed solution

Explanation:

The balanced reaction equation is Ba(NO3)2 + 2HSO3NH2 → Ba(SO3NH2)2 + 2HNO3

Number of moles of Ba(NO3)2 = 1.4 g/ 261.337 g/mol = 5.36 × 10^-3 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of Ba(NO3)2 yields 1 mole of Ba(SO3NH2)2

5.36 × 10^-3 moles of Ba(NO3)2 yields 5.36 × 10^-3 moles of Ba(SO3NH2)2

For HSO3NH2

Number of moles = 2.4g/97.10 g/mol =0.0247 moles

2 moles of HSO3NH2 yields 1 mole of Ba(SO3NH2)2

0.0247 moles of HSO3NH2 yields 0.0247 ×1/2 = 0.0137 moles

Hence, Ba(NO3)2 is the limiting reactant

The theoretical yield of Ba(SO3NH2)2 is 5.36 × 10^-3 moles × 329.4986 g/mol = 1.766 g

b)

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Molar mass = mass/ number of moles

Molar mass = 1.6925 g/5.36 × 10^-3 moles = 315.76 g

<h2>Question no 1:</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option A which is Sarah is correct because genetic diversity occurs over a long period of time.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Genetic diversity is a large number of allelic combinations for a trait in specie in a population.
  • Genetic diversity is caused due to mutations or random breeding in a specie.
  • It is good for the adaptation of specie in an environment, due to diverse in genotypes and phenotype of a trait.
<h2>Question number 2:</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is the species will adapt to the changes.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Adaptation to an environment means changing your body in such a way to reduce the harmful affects of changing the environment on the body.
  • For example, the long and thick fur of sheeps in a snowy area will protect them from cold.
  • If the environment changes, the first thing a specie do is an adaptation to that change in the environment.
<h2>Question 3.</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option D which is, "The spines of a cactus protect it from animals".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Adaptation to an environment means changing your body in such a way to reduce the harmful affects of changing the environment on the body.
  • For example, the long and thick fur of sheeps in a snowy area will protect them from cold.
  • So the plant of cactus was in danger due to animals. So the start growing spines in response to animals.
  • Hence the correct answer is option D.
<h2>Question 4.</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is, "Marie's plant will lean toward the sun so that it can get the most sunlight".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The plant will lean towards the sun light by the mechanism of phototropism.
  • Phototropism is the mechanism of growth of the plant in a specific direction in the response of light.
  • There are two types of phototropism.
  • One is a positive phototropism in which plant grows towards the light.
  • The other is negative phototropism in which plant grows away from the light.
  • In this question,the plant will do positive tropism.
<h2>Question no. 5</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is, "The dodo bird could not adapt quickly to the challenges of the environment".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Adaptation to an environment means changing your body in such a way to reduce the harmful affects of changing the environment on the body.
  • For example, the long and thick fur of sheeps in a snowy area will protect them from cold.
  • So the dodo could not adopt to the environment. For the positive adaption of survival, they should be afraid of sailors but the would not afraid of a sailor.
  • Due to which they went extinct.
