Answer:
Nucleic acid is an important class of macromolecules found in all cells and viruses. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) encodes the information the cell needs to make proteins.
A related type of nucleic acid, called ribonucleic acid (RNA), comes in different molecular forms that participate in protein synthesis.
Answer:
The answer is 6.25g.
Explanation:
First create your balanced equation. This will give you the stoich ratios needed to answer the question:
2C8H18 + 25O2 → 16CO2 + 18H2O
Remember, we need to work in terms of NUMBERS, but the question gives us MASS. Therefore the next step is to convert the mass of O2 into moles of O2 by dividing by the molar mass:
7.72 g / 16 g/mol = 0.482 mol
Now we can use the stoich ratio from the equation to determine how many moles of H2O are produced:
x mol H2O / 0.482 mol O2 = 18 H2O / 25 O2
x = 0.347 mol H2O
The question wants the mass of water, so convert moles back into mass by multiplying by the molar mass of water:
0.347 mol x 18 g/mol = 6.25g
Answer:
1
Explanation:
For non metals to attain a noble gas configuration, they gain the number of electrons needed to attain the noble gas configuration of the noble gas at the end of their periods. This means that these non metals would only take up the configuration of the last element on their periods which of course is always a noble gas.
The last element on the hydrogen period or more conservatively the only other element on the hydrogen period is helium, with an atomic number of 2. The atomic number is the number of protons in he nucleus of an atom. For an electrically neutral atom, the number of electrons equal the number of protons.
Hence we can deduce that helium has 2 electrons while hydrogen has one electron. Thus for it to attain the configuration of helium, it just needs to gain one more electron
The answer is D! This adaptation helps the eel fend off potential threats! Hope this helps, have a great day!
