Answer:

The central dogma states that the pattern of information that occurs most frequently in our cells is: From existing DNA to make new DNA (DNA replication?) From DNA to make new RNA (transcription) From RNA to make new proteins (translation).

given that the speed of light is 2.998 x 108 m/s, what is the frequency of a wave that has a wavelength of 3.55 x 10-8 meters

Vesna [10]

Frequency, f = v / λ

f = 2.998 * 10⁸ / 3.55*10⁻⁸

f = 8.445 * 10¹⁵ Hz.

Which postulate of Dalton's atomic theory was later proven wrong?

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Option c and d

Explanation:

John Dalton. In 1808, John Dalton proposed a theory known as Dalton’s Atomic Theory. The theory was published in a paper titled “A New Chemical Philosophy”. This theory was new to that era

The 5 postulates of Daltons' atomic theory are:

1. All the matters are made of atoms.

2. Atoms of different elements combine to form compounds

3. Compounds contain atoms in small whole-number ratios

4. Atoms can neither be created nor destroyed . (This was later proven wrong )

5. All atoms of an element are identical and have the same properties (This was later proven wrong as atoms of same element may be different in case of elements having isotopes )

Therefore, options c and d are the answer.

The equilibrium constant, Kp, for the following reaction is 0.497 at 500K.PCl5(g) PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)If an equilibrium mixture of t

Anestetic [448]

<u>Answer:</u> The equilibrium partial pressure of chlorine gas is 0.360 atm

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the given chemical equation:

$PCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_3(g)+Cl2(g)$

The expression of $K_p$ for above reaction follows:

$K_p=\frac{p_{Cl_2}\times p_{PCl_3}}{p_{PCl_5}}$

We are given:

$K_p=0.497\\p_{PCl_3}=0.651atm\\p_{PCl_5}=0.471atm$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.497=\frac{p_{Cl_2}\times 0.651}{0.471}\\\\p_{Cl_2}=0.360atm$

Hence, the equilibrium partial pressure of chlorine gas is 0.360 atm

Which would exert more pressure on the floor, a 100kg man wearing snow shoes or a 60kg woman wearing high heels? PLEASE EXPLAIN

iris [78.8K]

Pressure can be defined as the force acting on a perpendicular surface per unit area.

Force exerted by a man of mass 100 kg wearing snow shoes = m.a

Where m = mass of the man = 100 kg

a = acceleration due to gravity= 9.8 $m/s^{2}$

Force exerted by the man of mass 100 kg = $100 kg(9.8 m/s^{2}) = 980 N$

Force exerted by woman of mass 60 kg = $60 kg(9.8 m/s^{2}) = 588 N$

Force exerted by 100 kg man is greater than that exerted as 60 kg woman. The area on which this force is acting determines the pressure. Pressure is inversely proportional to the area on which the force acts. Therefore, the pressure exerted by 100 kg man wearing snow shoes is less than the pressure exerted by a 60 kg woman woman wearing high heels as the force acts over a larger area when the man wears snow shoes when compared to the force exerted over a smaller area in case of the woman wearing high heels.
