Which of the following statements correctly relates mutations and survival rates of plants?

Tasya [4]

Answer is: Mutations sometimes improve the chances of survival for a plant.
Mutations are very important because they change variability in populations and in that way enable evolutionary change.
There are three types of mutations:
1) good or advantageous mutations - improve the chances of survival for a plant.
2) bad or deleterious - decrease the chances of survival for a plant.
3) neutral - not affect he chances of survival for a plant.

Group the following electron configurations in pairs that would represent similar chemical properties at their atoms;

marishachu [46]

Answer: Pairs are: (a) and (d), (b) and (f), (c) and (e)

Explanation:

In a periodic table, elements are arranged in 18 vertical columns known as groups and 7 horizontal rows known as periods.

Elements arranged in a group show similar chemical properties because of the presence of same number of valence electrons.

Valence electrons are defined as the electrons which are present in the outermost shell of an atom. Outermost shell has the highest value of 'n' that is principal quantum number.

For the given options:

For a:

The given electronic configuration is: $1s^22s^22p^63s^2$

The number of valence electrons in the given configuration are 2

For b:

The given electronic configuration is: $1s^22s^22p^63s^3$

The number of valence electrons in the given configuration are [2 + 3] = 5

For c:

The given electronic configuration is: $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^6$

The number of valence electrons in the given configuration are [2 + 6] = 8

For d:

The given electronic configuration is: $1s^22s^2$

The number of valence electrons in the given configuration are 2

For e:

The given electronic configuration is: $1s^22s^22p^6$

The number of valence electrons in the given configuration are [2 + 6] = 8

For f:

The given electronic configuration is: $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^3$

The number of valence electrons in the given configuration are [2 + 3] = 5

Electronic configuration of (a) and (d) will form a pair, (b) and (f) will form a pair, (c) and (e) will form a pair and will have similar chemical properties.

Hence, the pairs are: (a) and (d), (b) and (f), (c) and (e)

List the spectator ions in the following reaction.

Rudik [331]

Answer:

2Na⁺ (aq) and 2OH⁻(aq)

Explanation:

Spectator ions:

Spectator ions are those ions which are same on both side of chemical reaction. These ions are same in the reactant side and product side. Their presence can not effect the chemical equilibrium that's why when we write the net ionic equation these ions are neglect or omitted.

Given ionic equation:

Ba⁺²(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq) + 2Na⁺ (aq) + CO²⁻₃(aq) → BaCO₃(s) + + 2Na⁺ (aq) + 2OH⁻(aq)

In given ionic equation by omitting the spectator ions i.e, 2Na⁺ (aq) and 2OH⁻(aq) net ionic equation can be written as,

Net ionic equation:

Ba⁺²(aq) + CO²⁻₃(aq) → BaCO₃(s)
