marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

0.062 moles of hydrogen gas

Explanation:

We must first out down the reaction equation before we can attempt to solve the problem.

Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) ----> MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)

Next we obtain the number of moles in 1.5 g of magnesium metal from;

Molar mass of magnesium = 24.3 gmol-1

Number of moles of magnesium= mass/molar mass = 1.5g/24.3gmol-1 = 0.062 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of magnesium metal yields 1 mole of hydrogen gas

0.062 moles of magnesium metal will yield 0.062 moles of hydrogen gas

Therefore, reaction of 1.5g of magnesium metal with excess hydrochloric acid will yield 0.062 moles of hydrogen gas.

Answer:

glucocerebroside

Explanation:

The substrate is the substance being acted upon by the enzyme. The enzyme glucocerebrosidase breaks down glucocerebroside. Therefore, glucocerebroside is the substrate in this example.

1. In pea plants, tall (T) is dominant to dwarf (t). Show the cross
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Tt - 2/4 = 1/2 or 50%            Heterozygous TALL

tt - 2/4 = 1/2 or 50%             Homozygous Dwarf

Explanation:

So let's make a Punnett for this so you can see what the outcome is yourself:

Tall is <u>dominant</u> - T

Dwarf is <u>recessive</u> - t

Heterozygous means that they have one of each allele. The genotype of one parent would be then Tt.

***It is heterozygous tall because Tall is a dominant trait so if it is accompanied by the recessive trait dwarf, then the Tall allele would mask it.

The other parent is a dwarf plant. The genotype would then be tt.

*** Now for a recessive trait to appear, it should not have a dominant trait mixed with it, which could mask it. The result then is homozygous recessive or homozygous Dwarf.

So now that we know the genotypes of the parent plants, we can put it into a Punnet:

    t      t

T  Tt   Tt

t   tt    tt

As you can see, out of the 4 outcomes we have:

Tt - 2/4 = 1/2 or 50%            Heterozygous TALL

tt - 2/4 = 1/2 or 50%             Homozygous Dwarf

The arrows in a food chain point from the organism ____________ the energy to the organism ___________ the energy
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

1. Supplying

2. Taking

Explanation:

Food chain is a linear relationship between organisms that depicts the flow of energy from one organism to another. In a food chain, organisms are arranged in trophic levels where arrows pointing to the right direction (➡) are used to show that the organim the arrow is pointing to eats the organism behind it.

Hence, according to this question, arrows in a food chain point from the organism SUPPLYING the energy to the organism TAKING the energy.
