State whether the following statement is true.justify the answer with examples
Ilya [14]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Atoms only achieve complete outer electron shells if they contain an outer shell with 7 electrons before gaining another electron or an outer shell with 1 electron before losing an electron. This is assuming that the octet-rule can be applied to said atom. In addition, the number of valence electrons varies from atom to atom which is why not ALL atoms achieve complete outer electron shells after gaining or losing just ONE electron.

Calculate the theoretical yield of ammonia produced by the reaction of 100 g of H2 gas and 200g of N2 gas? 3H2(g) + N2(g)-----&g
Alex787 [66]
Moles of Hydrogen present: 100 / 2 = 50 moles

Moles of Nitrogen present: 200 / 28 = 7.14 moles

Hydrogen required by given amount of nitrogen = 7.14 x 3 = 21.42 moles

Hydrogen is excess so we will calculate the Ammonia produced using Nitrogen.

Molar ratio of Nitrogen : Ammonia = 1 : 2

Moles of ammonia = 7.14 x 2 = 14.28 moles

Explain with examples following characteristics of chemical reactions: a. Change of colour b. Evolution of gas c. Change of smel
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. change of colour:

A chemical reaction rearranges the constituent atoms of the reactants to create different substances as products. The products have different molecular structures than the reactants. Different atoms and molecules radiate different colours of light. Hence, there usually is a change in colour during a chemical reaction.

Eg: copper reactions with the elements

b. Evolution of gas:

A gas evolution reaction is a chemical reaction in which one of the end products is a gas such as oxygen or carbon dioxide.

Eg: ammonium hydroxide breaks down to water and ammonia gas.

c. Change of smell :

Production of an Odor Some chemical changes produce new smells.  ... The formation of gas bubbles is another indicator that a chemical change may have occured.

Eg: The chemical change that occurs when an egg is rotting produces the smell of sulfur.

d. Change of state:

A chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances, also called reactants, are converted to one or more different substances, known as products.

Eg: candle wax (solid) melts initially to produce molten wax (liquid)

Leya [2.2K]
Found the choices. Pls see attachment. 

The statements that explains this phenomenon are:
1) DNA contains adenine as one of its nitrogenous bases.
2) DNA has a double-stranded structure that ensures an accurate mechanism of duplication.
