In this Punnett square, what is the probability of the offspring being a heterozygous purple flower
olya-2409 [2.1K]
Heterozygous means A capital P with a lowercase p. There are two purple flowers in the Punnett square with Pp out of 4 possible options. 2/4 is 1/2 which is 50%. So there is a 50% chance of a purple heterozygous flower.

You are starting with 2 pounds of 30% acetic acid solution. You want to dilute
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The mass of water to be added is 2 pounds

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the given solution = 2 pounds

The concentration of the given solution = 30%

The desired concentration of the solution = 15%

The mass, m of the acetic acid in the given solution = 30% × 2 pounds

m = 30/100 × 2 pounds = 0.6 pounds

To make a 15% acetic acid solution of acetic acid, the mass X of the required volume, is given as follows;

15% of X = 0.6 pounds

15/100 × X = 3/20 × 0.6 pounds

∴ The mass of the solution required  X = 0.6 × 20/3 = 4 pounds

The mass of the solution that will contain 0.6 pounds of acetic acid giving a 15% acetic acid solution is 4 pounds

Therefore, the mass of water to be added to the original solution to make the a 15% acetic acid solution is 2 pounds.

Below are the reduction half reactions for chemolithoautotrophic nitrification, where ammonia is a source of electrons and energ
SSSSS [86.1K]

<u>Answer:</u> The molecules of oxygen gas that will be reduced to water are 42 molecules

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

E^o_{(NO_2^-/NH_4)}=-0.41V\\E^o_{(O_2/H_2O)}=0.82V

The substance having highest positive E^o potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction. Here, oxygen will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced.

NH_4 will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.

The half reactions follows:

<u>Oxidation half reaction:</u>  NH_4\rightarrow NO_2^-+6e^-     ( × 4)

<u>Reduction half reaction:</u>  O_2+4e^-\rightarrow 2H_2O   ( × 6)

<u>Overall reaction:</u> 4NH_4+6O_2\rightarrow 4NO_2^-+12H_2O

We are given:

Molecules of NH_4 = 28

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 molecules of NH_4 reacts with 6 molecules of oxygen gas

So, 28 molecules of NH_4 will react with = \frac{6}{4}\times 28=42 molecules of oxygen gas

Hence, the molecules of oxygen gas that will be reduced to water are 42 molecules

monitta

Answer:

\large \boxed{9.780 \times 10^{4}\text{ u}}

Explanation:

The molecular mass of a monomer unit is:

C₂H₃Cl = 2×12.01 + 3×1.008 + 35.45 = 24.02 + 3.024 + 35.45 = 62.494 u

For 1565 units,

\text{Molecular mass} = \text{1565 units} \times \dfrac{\text{62.494 u}}{\text{1 unit }} = \mathbf{9.780 \times 10^{4}}\textbf{ u}\\\\\text{The molecular mass of the chain is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{9.780 \times 10^{4}}\textbf{ u}}$}
