Answer:

Genes are segments of DNA that are located on the chromosomes of each cell.

Explanation:

Chromosomes are basically tightly bundled thingies containing genes, DNA, whatever. Phenotype and genotype have nothing to do with chromosomes, that's just how WE describe them.

Force = 2.32 N Acceleration = 0.19 m/s2 Mass= ?

Mkey [24]

mass = 12.2 kg

Explanation:

To find the mass we use the following formula (Newton's Second Law of Motion):

force = mass × acceleration

mass = force / acceleration

mass = 2.32 N / 0.19 m/s²

mass = 12.2 kg

Answer:

6. 355.1 g of Na₂SO₄ can be formed.

7. 313 g of LiNO₃ were needed

Explanation:

Excersise 6.

The reaction is: 2 NaOH + H₂SO₄ --> 2 H₂O + Na₂SO₄

2 moles of sodium hydroxide react with 1 mol of sulfuric acid to produce 2 moles of water and 1 mol of sodium sulfate.

If we were noticed that the acid is in excess, we assume the NaOH as the limiting reactant. Let's convert the mass to moles (mass / molar mass)

200 g / 40 g/mol = 5 moles.

Now we apply a rule of three with the ratio in the reaction, 2:1

2 moles of NaOH produce 1 mol of sodium sulfate.

5 moles of NaOH would produce (5 .1)/2 = 2.5 moles

Let's convert these moles to mass (mol . molar mass)

2.5 mol . 142.06 g/mol = 355.1 g

Excersise 7.

The reaction is:

Pb(SO₄)₂+ 4 LiNO₃ → Pb(NO₃)₄ + 2Li₂SO₄

As we assume that we have an adequate amount of lead (IV) sulfate, the limiting reactant is the lithium nitrate.

Let's convert the mass to moles (mass / molar mass)

250 g / 109.94 g/mol = 2.27 moles

Let's make a rule of three. Ratio is 2:4.

2 moles of lithium sulfate were produced by 4 moles of lithium nitrate

2.27 moles of Li₂SO₄ would have been produced by ( 2.27 .4) / 2 = 4.54 moles.

Let's convert these moles to mass (mol . molar mass)

4.54 mol . 68.94 g/mol = 313 g

A second- order reaction of the type A + B -->P was carried out in a solution that was initially 0.075 mol dm^-3 in A and 0.0

andriy [413]

Answer:

a) 16.2 dm^3/mol*h

b) 6.1 × 10^3 s, 2.5 × 10^3 s (it is different to the hint)

Explanation:

We can use the integrated rate equation in order to obtain k.

For the reaction A+ B --> P the reaction rate is written as

Rate = $-\frac{dC_A}{dt} = -\frac{dC_B}{dt} = \frac{dC_P}{dt} = kC_AC_B$

If $C_{A0}$ and $C_{B0}$ are the inital concentrations and x the concentration reacted at time t, so $C_A=C_{A0} -x$ and $C_B=C_{B0} -x$ and the rate at time t is written as:

$-\frac{dx}{dt} =-k(C_{A0} -x)(C_{B0}-x)$

Separating variables and integrating

$\int\limits^x_0 {\frac{1}{(C_{A0}-x)(C_{B0}-x)} } \, dx = \int\limits^t_0 {k} \, dt$

The integral in left side is solved by partial fractions, it can be used integral tables

$\frac{1}{C_{B0}-C_{A0}}(ln\frac{C_{A0}}{C_{A0}-x}-ln\frac{C_{B0}}{C_{B0}-x}) =kt$

Using logarithm properties (ln x - ln y = ln(x/y))

$\frac{1}{C_{B0}-C_{A0}}(ln\frac{C_{A0}C_{B}}{C_{A}C_{B0}}) =kt$

Using the given values k can be calculated. But the data seems inconsistent since if the concentration of A changes from 0.075 to 0.02 mol dm^-3 it implies that 0.055 mol dm^-3 of A have reacted after 1 h, so according to the reaction given the same quantity of B should react, and we only have a $C_{B0}$ of 0.05 mol dm^-3.

Assuming that the concentration of B fall to 0.02 mol dm^-3 (and not the concentration the A). So we arrive to the answer given in the Hint.

So, the values given are t= 1, $C_{A0}=0.075$ , $C_{B0}=0.05$ , $C_{B}=0.02$ , it implies that the quantity reacted, x, is 0.03 and $C_{A}=0.075-x = 0.045$ . Then, the value of k would be

$kt = \frac{1}{0.05-0.075}(ln\frac{0.075*0.02}{0.045*0.05})$

$k = 16.21 \frac{dm^3}{mol*1h}$

b) the question b requires calculate the time when the concentration of the specie is half of the initial concentration.

For reactant A, It is solved with the same equation

$\frac{1}{C_{B0}-C_{A0}}(ln\frac{C_{A0}C_{B}}{C_{A}C_{B0}}) =kt$

but suppossing that $C_A= C_{A0}/2=0.0375$ so $C_B=C_{B0}- C_{A0}/2=0.0125$ , k=16.2 and the same initial concentrations. Replacing in the equation

$t=\frac{1}{16.2(0.05-0.075)}(ln\frac{0.075*0.0125}{0.0375*0.05})$

$t=1.71 h = 1.71*3600 s = 6.1*10^3 s$

For reactant B, $C_B= C_{B0}/2=0.025$ so $C_A=C_{A0}- C_{B0}/2=0.05$ , k=16.2 and the same initial concentrations. Replacing in the equation

$t=\frac{1}{16.2(0.05-0.075)}(ln\frac{0.075*0.025}{0.05*0.05})$

$t=0.71 h = 0.7*3600 s = 2.5*10^3 s$

Note: The procedure presented is correct, despite of the answer be something different to the given in the hint, I obtain that result if the k is 19.2... (maybe an error in calculation of given numbers)
