Answer:

The adaptive (also called humoral or specific) immune system is typically only involved in immune responses to bacteria, bacterial toxins and virus antigens. It involves the production of antibodies (also called immunoglobulins) against a specific target. The target of an antibody is called an antigen.

Answer:

They have the same number of atoms

Explanation:

The mole (symbol: mol) is the base unit of amount of substance.

Think of mole meaning like inch. An inch of grass is the same as an inch of a flower. Mole is the standard measuring unit of atoms.

Vitamin K is involved in normal blood clotting. When 0.802 g of vitamin K is dissolved in 25.0 g of camphor, the freezing point

xenn [34]

Answer:

Molar mass of vitamin K = 450.56\frac{g}{mol}[/tex]

Explanation:

The freezing point of camphor = 178.4 ⁰C

the Kf of camphor = 37.7°C/m

where : m = molality

the relation between freezing point depression and molality is

Depression in freezing point = Kf X molality

Where

Kf = cryoscopic constant of camphor

molality = moles of solute dissolved per kg of solvent.

putting values

2.69°C = 37.7°C/m X molality

molality = 0.0714 mol /kg

$molality=\frac{molesofvitaminK}{massofcamphor(kg)}=\frac{moles}{0.025}$

moles of vitamin K = 0.0714X0.025 = 0.00178 mol

we know that moles are related to mass and molar mass of a substance as:

$moles=\frac{mass}{molarmass}$

For vitamin K the mass is given = 0.802 grams

therefore molar mass = $\frac{mass}{moles}=\frac{0.802}{0.00178}=450.56\frac{g}{mol}$

How many moles of oxygen would be required to produce 5 mol of water? (Remember sig figs)

Vikki [24]

Answer:

Since moles are just "some number of particles", and since one O2 molecule contains enough oxygen for two H2O molecules, you need 2.5 moles of O2 for 5 moles of H2O.

A sample of oxygen occupies 20.1 liters under a pressure of 1520 torr at 25.0o What volume would it occupy at 25.0oC if the pres

Zolol [24]

Answer:

The volume that the sample of oxygen would occupy at 25 ° C if the pressure were reduced to 760.0 torr is 40.2 L

Explanation:

Boyle's law establishes the relationship between the pressure and the volume of a gas when the temperature is constant, so that the pressure of a gas in a closed container is inversely proportional to the volume of the container. That is, if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, while if the pressure decreases, the volume increases.

Boyle's law is expressed mathematically as:

Pressure * Volume = constant

or P * V = k

Considering an initial state 1 and a final state 2, it is true:

P1* V1= P2*V2

In this case:

P1= 20.1 L
V1= 1520 torr
P2= 760 torr
V2= ?

Replacing:

20.1 L* 1520 torr= 760 torr* V2

Solving:

$V2=\frac{20.1 L* 1520 torr}{760 torr}$

V2= 40.2 L

The volume that the sample of oxygen would occupy at 25 ° C if the pressure were reduced to 760.0 torr is 40.2 L
