Answer:

True

Explanation:

Fossil age can determine organism changes related to the time scale. Fossils provide scientists with evidence that allows them to hypothesize how living organisms have evolved over time.

fossil can be studied to determine what kind of organism it represents, how the organism lived, and how it was preserved. However, by itself a fossil has little meaning unless it is placed within some context. The age of the fossil must be determined so it can be compared to other fossil species from the same time period. Understanding the ages of related fossil species helps scientists piece together the evolutionary history of a group of organisms.

The fermentation of glucose (C6H12O6) produces ethyl alcohol (C2H5OH) and CO2:

Jlenok [28]

To answer your question I will use dimensional analysis, which is used by cancelling out the units. I will also use the balanced equation provided as a conversion factor.

A) First start out with the 0.300 mol of C6H12O6...
0.300 mol C6H12O6 * (2 mol CO2 / 1 mol C6H12O6) = 0.600 mol CO2

*The significant figures (sig figs) at still three, the 2 is a conversion counting number and does not count*

B) First change 2.00 g of C2H5OH to moles of C2H5OH...
The molecular mass of C2H5OH is...
2(12.01 g/mol) + 5(1.008 g/mol) + 16.00 g/mol + 1.008 g/mol = 46.07 g/mol
This can be used as a conversion factor to change grams to moles.
2.00 g C2H5OH * (1 mol C2H5OH / 46.07 g C2H5OH) = 0.0434 mol C2H5OH

Second, you can change the moles of C2H5OH to moles of C6H12O6..
0.0434 mol C2H5OH * (1 mol C6H12O6 / 2 mol C6H12O6) = 0.0217 mol C6H12O6

Third, change moles of C6H12O6 to grams...
MM = 6(12.01 g/mol) + 12(1.008 g/mol) + 6(16.00 g/mol) = 180.16 g/mol
0.0217 mol C6H12O6 * (180.16 g C6H12O6 / 1 mol C6H12O6) = 3.91 g C6H12O6

C) Now I am going to put it all into one long dimensional analysis problem.
MM of CO2 = 44.01 g/mol
MM of C2H5OH = 46.07 g/mol

2.00 g C2H5OH * (1 mol C2H5OH / 46.07 g C2H5OH) * (2 mol CO2 / 2 mol C2H5OH) * (44.01 g CO2 / 1 mol CO2) = 1.91 g CO2

I hope this helped and I am sorry that I talked to much, I just didn't want to miss anything!

Answer:

CrO₂ --------------------> Cr⁴⁺ and O²⁻

VCO₃ -------------------> V²⁺ and CO₃²⁻

Cr₂(SO₄)₃ -------------> Cr³⁺ and SO₄²⁻

(NH₄)₂S ----------------> NH₄⁺ and S²⁻

Explanation:

Within ionic compounds, the cation is listed first, followed by the anion. Some of the ions are polyatomic, meaning they are covalently bonded to other elements. Polyatomic ions always have a specific charge.

All of these ionic compounds have an overall charge of 0. As such, the charges of the cations and anions must balance out. In order to do so, there are some compounds which have more than one atom of each ion.

2.) CrO₂

------> Oxygen (O) always forms the anion, O²⁻.

------> Therefore, if there are 2 oxygen anions, the chromium (Cr) must have the cationic form of Cr⁴⁺.

------> +4 + (-2) + (-2) = 0

3.) VCO₃

------> Carbonate (CO₃), a polyatomic ion, always has the state CO₃²⁻.

------> If there is only one atom of each ion, the charges must perfectly balance, making vanadium (V) be the cation V²⁺.

------> +2 + (-2) = 0

4.) Cr₂(SO₄)₃

------> Sulfate (SO₄), a polyatomic ion, always has the state SO₄²⁻.

-------> The only way the charges could balance out is if the chromium (Cr) is in the cationic form Cr³⁺.

------> +3 + 3 + (-2) + (-2) + (-2) = 0

5.) (NH₄)₂S

------> Ammonium (NH₄), a polyatomic ion, always has the state NH₄⁺.

------> Sulfur (S) always forms the anion S²⁻.

------> +1 + 1 + (-2) = 0
