Describe how species on the Galapagos islands have changed over time

Chemistry
1 answer:
GarryVolchara [31]3 years ago
6 0
Five to ten million years ago, the tops of underwater Galapagos volcanoes appeared above water for the first time about 600 km from mainland Ecuador in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Those volcanic peaks were completely devoid of plant and animal life. All plants and animals that are now native to the islands must have arrived to the islands originally through some form of long-distance dispersal.There are two main ways for species to make their way to remote islands. The first method is by air in the form of flying or being blown by wind, and the second method is by sea while swimming or floating, sometimes with the aid of rafts of tangled vegetation.

How many oxygen atoms are there in 582 grams of caffeine (CH10N402, 194 g/mol)? Avogadro's Number: 1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 species
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

3.61 * 10 ²⁴atoms.

Explanation:

Moles is denoted by given mass divided by the molecular mass ,

Hence ,

n = w / m

n = moles ,

w = given mass ,

m = molecular mass .

From the question ,

w = 582 g

m = 194 g/mol

The number of moles can be calculated from the above formula , and substituting the respective values ,

n = w / m  = 582 g / 194 g/mol  =  3 mol

In the molecular formula of caffeine ,

<u>In 1 mole of caffeine their are - 2 moles of Oxygen. </u>

Therefore , in  3 moles of Caffeine there will be 6 moles of oxygen.

As well know ,

one mole of any substance contains 6.023*10²³ atoms,

Therefore , in  6 mol of oxygen =  6 * 6.023*10²³ atoms  = 3.61 * 10 ²⁴atoms.

How many moles of SnF₂ will be produced along with 48 grams of H₂? *
KIM [24]

Answer: 24 moles of SnF_2 are produced.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

{\text{Moles of}  H_2}=\frac{48g}{2g/mol}=24moles

Sn+2HF\rightarrow SnF_2+H_2

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of H_2 is accompanied with = 1 mole of SnF_2

Thus 24 moles of H_2  is accompanied with =\frac{1}{1}\times 24=24moles  of SnF_2

Thus 24 moles of SnF_2 are produced.

Convert 7.1x10^25 molecules of water to moles
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

<h2>117.94 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{7.1 \times  {10}^{25} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\  = 117.940199...

We have the final answer as

<h3>117.94 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you
