They have the same amount but if you count the wrist it was more then the leg and ankle.

There's the same amount of bones in both the arm and the leg. But if you start talking about the arm with the hand included and the leg with the foot included, it will get more complicated because there's more bones in the wrist than the ankle.

The prefix 'kilo-' means a thousand. So a kilo-gram is a thousand grams. 1 kilogram=1,000 grams How many kilograms is 1,008 gram

lesantik [10]

<u>Answer:</u> 1.0 kilograms.

<u>Explanation:</u>

One kilogram is equal to a thousand grams.

Supposing x to be the number of kilograms equal to one thousand and eight grams, we can write it as:

1 kg = 1000 grams

x kg = 1008 grams

To solve for x, we can simply divide 1008 grams by 1000 thousand grams to get the answer.

x = 1008 / 1000

x = 1.008

Rounding this value to the nearest tenth, it will become 1.0 kilograms.

What property of water molecules allows water to dissolve many substances

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Its high polarity

Explanation:

Solvent is the that part of solution which is present in large proportion and have ability to dissolve the solute. In simplest form it is something in which other substance get dissolve. The most widely used solvent is water, other examples are toluene, acetone, ethanol, chloroform etc.

Water is called universal solvent because of high polarity all polar substance are dissolve in it. Hydrogen is less electronegative while oxygen is more electronegative and because of difference in electronegativity hydrogen carry the partial positive charge while oxygen carry partial negative charge.

Water create electrostatic interaction with other polar molecules. The negative end of water attract the positive end of polar molecules and positive end of water attract negative end of polar substance and in this way polar substance get dissolve in it.

Example:

when we stir the sodium chloride into water the cation Na⁺ ions are surrounded by the negative end of water i.e oxygen and anion Cl⁻ is surrounded by the positive end of water i.e hydrogen and in this way all salt is get dissolved.

Identify the species oxidized, the species reduced, the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent in the following electron transfe

babunello [35]

Answer:

Oxidized and reducing agent: manganese.

Reduced and oxidizing agent: mercury.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the reaction:

$Hg^{2+}(aq) + Mn^0(s)\rightarrow Hg(s) + Mn^{2+}(aq)$

We keep in mind that the species that increase the oxidation state is the oxidized one whereas the one that decrease the oxidation state is the reduced one; therefore manganese is the oxidized one as well as the reducing agent because it goes from 0 to +2 and mercury the reduced one as well as the oxidizing agent because it goes from 2+ to 0.

Epinephrine (adrenaline) is a hormone secreted into the bloodstream in times of stress. It contains 59.0% C, 7.15% H, 26.20% O,

vichka [17]

Answer:

C9H13O3N

Explanation:

Take the atomic mass of C=12.0, H=1.0, O=16.0 and N=14.0.

We can draw a chart (please view this on desktop so to avoid spacing errors):

Let the mass of Epinephrine be 100g.

C H O N

mass(g) : 59 7.15 26.2 7.65

no. of moles : 59/12 =4.9167 7.15/1 = 7.15 26.2/16=1.6375 7.65/14=0.5464

(n.o.m. = mass/molar mass)

Ratio: 4.9167/0.5464 =9 7.15/0.5464=13 1.6375= 3 0.5464/0.5464 =1

(divide the n.o.m. by the smallest n.o.m., which is 0.5464 in this case, take the whole numbers)

So, the empirical formula will be: C9H13O3N

But this is still not yet the molecular formula. We have to ensure the molar mass is 183g/mol. Multiply the empirical formula by n.

So, let the molecular formula of Epinephrine be (C9H13O3N)n.

12x9n + 1x13n + 16x3n + 14n = 183

108n + 13n + 48n + 14n = 183

183 n = 183.

n = 1

Hence, the molecular formula is C9H13O3N.
