It condenses very long strings of numbers while retaining the general accuracy of the figure.
Dmitry [639]3 years ago
5 0

Scientific notation comes in handy because it lets us take very big or very small numbers, get rid of all the zeroes,  and write them in a very compact and very simple way that's much easier to use. Also, big numbers aren't just a pain to deal with because of all the digits but they're also hard to quickly evaluate and compare with other numbers.

In sexual reproduction, if each chromosome in a pair has the same genes, how is genetic variety possible?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The same genes or slightly different versions of the same gene can be found on each chromosome in a pair. They form a line and split off bits of themselves, which they barter with one another. In sexual reproduction, crossing over is the first method that genes are shuffled to develop genetic variation.

Use the formation reactions below such that when added together, they match the balanced equation for the combustion of methane.
muminat

Answer:

ΔH of the reaction is -802.3kJ.

Explanation:

Using Hess's law, you can know ΔH of reaction by the sum of ΔH's of half-reactions.

Using the reactions:

<em>(1) </em>Cgraphite(s)+ 2H₂(g) → CH₄(g) ΔH₁ = −74.80kJ

<em>(2) </em>Cgraphite(s)+ O₂(g) → CO₂(g) ΔH₂ = −393.5k J

<em>(3) </em>H₂(g) + 1/2 O₂(g) → H₂O(g) ΔH₃ = −241.80kJ

The sum of (2) - (1) produce:

CH₄(g) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂(g) ΔH' = -393.5kJ - (-74.80kJ) = -318.7kJ

And the sum of this reaction with 2×(3) produce:

CH₄(g) + 2 O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g) And ΔH = -318.7kJ + 2×(-241.80kJ) =

<em>-802.3kJ</em>
