<u>Answer:</u> The half life of the decomposition reaction is 0.204 s

<u>Explanation:</u>

The equation used to calculate half life for first order kinetics:

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

where,

k = rate constant of the reaction = 3.40s^{-1}

t_{1/2} = half life of the reaction = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{3.40s^{-1}}\\\\t_{1/2}=0.204s

Hence, the half life of the decomposition reaction is 0.204 s

Hey There:

First order  half life equation :

T 1/2  = ln ( 2 ) /K

T 1/2 = 0.693 / 3.40

T 1/2 = 0.204 s

Answer B

On the electromagnetic spectrum what two types of waves are microwaves between?
boyakko [2]

Microwaves are defined as electromagnetic radiations with a frequency ranging between 300 MHz to 300 GHz while the wavelength ranges from 1 mm to around 30 cm. The microwave radiation is commonly referred to as microwaves. They fall between the infrared radiation and radio waves in the electromagnetic spectrum. radio waves in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Create a graphic representation that illustrates the steps from gene to protein. Label and describe each step.
Vesna [10]

Okay so,

1) Translation- show the RNA strand attatching to a DNA strand with the complimentary base pairs. introns are spliced

2) mRNA leaves the cell and joins with a ribosome

3) Transcription - tRNA (clover shaped) reads each codon (triplets) which each code for an amino acid. The stop codons on the end tell the tRNA that the chain is finished

4) the sequence forms the primary structure (all peptide bonds) which determines the shape of the secondary (hyrdogen and peptide) and hence determines the shape of the tertiary structure of a protein (ionic, hydrogen, disulfide bridges and hydrophibic interactions)


Hope this helps :)

Identify the compounds that are soluble in both water and hexane.
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The compound which are boh soluble in water and hexane is

B. Ethanol and 1-propanol  

Explanation:

The compounds ethanol and 1-propanol are soluble in both hexane and water.

It is soluble in water as both  consists of polar end due to hydrogen bonding present in the  -OH functional group.

and both are soluble in hexane as they contain a non polar end and the alliphatic hydrocarbon chain in them.

The solubility of alcohols varies in increasing order as the hydrocarbon chain increases. And becaue of this it becomes more non polar.

Non polar properties decreases for branched molecules.

so, the correct option is ethanol and 1-propanol.

Which term best describes this reaction? 2 carbons double bonded to each other, with CH 3 above the left C and H above the right
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

addition polymerization

Explanation:

In addition polymerization, the monomers are simply joined to each other to form a polymer having the same empirical formula as the monomer but of higher relative molecular mass. The monomers in addition polymerization are usually simple unsaturated molecules such as alkenes.

We can deduce the reaction to be an addition polymerization because of the the attachment of n to both the unsaturated monomer and the saturated polymer without the loss of any small molecule. If it was a condensation polymerization, there would have been an accompanying loss of a small molecule such as water.
