Answer:

Explanation:

There are three types of interactions involved between the particles when solution are formed.

1 : Solute - solute interaction:

2 : Solute - solvent interaction:

3 : Solvent - solvent interaction:

1 : Solute - solute interaction:

It is the inter-molecular attraction between the solute particles.

2 : Solute - solvent interaction:

It involve the inter-molecular attraction between solvent and solute particles.

3 : Solvent - solvent interaction:

It involve the intermolecular attraction between solvent particles.

Solutions are formed if the intermolecular attraction between solute particles are similar to the attraction between solvent particles.

Exothermic process:

The process will exothermic when solute solvent bonds are formed with the release of energy and energy required to brake the solute-solute particles and solvent solvent particles are less.

Endothermic process:

The process will be endothermic when energy required to break the solute-solute particles and solvent solvent particles are higher than energy released when solute solvent bonds are formed .

What does it mean to say B is representing the dominant gene

Degger [83]

Answer:

Dominant genes are always represented by a capital letter which in this case is the letter B whereas recessive genes will be represented by a lower case letter like b.

You only need one copy of a dominant gene or allele to inherit it. A dominant allele is always expressed even if only one copy is present.

But you need two copies of genes or alleles to inherit the recessive gene. There also can't be a dominant allele of the gene if you are to inherit this.

Differentiate between elements and mixtures

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

ELEMENTS MIXTURE

Elements are made up of one kind of atoms. Mixtures are made up of two or more kinds of Compounds .

Elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by any physical or chemical method. The various constituents are seperated by simple physical means
