True or false: The SI base unit for mass is the gram.

At constant pressure, which of these systems do work on the surroundings? A ( s ) + B ( s ) ⟶ C ( g ) A(s)+B(s)⟶C(g) 2 A ( g ) +

Tju [1.3M]

Correct question:

At constant pressure, which of these systems do work on the surroundings?

(a) A ( s ) + B ( s ) ⟶ C ( g )

(b) 2 A ( g ) + 2 B ( g ) ⟶ 5 C ( g )

(c) A ( g ) + B ( g ) ⟶ C ( g )

(d) 2 A ( g ) + 2 B ( g ) ⟶ 3 C ( g )

Answer:

(a) A ( s ) + B ( s ) ⟶ C ( g )

(b) 2 A ( g ) + 2 B ( g ) ⟶ 5 C ( g )

Explanation:

Work done by a system on the surroundings at a constant pressure is given as;

W = -PΔV

Where;

ΔV is gas expansion, that is final volume of the gas minus initial volume of the gas must be greater than zero.

Part (a)

A ( s ) + B ( s ) ⟶ C ( g )

ΔV = 1 - (0) = 1 (expansion)

Part (b)

2 A ( g ) + 2 B ( g ) ⟶ 5 C ( g )

ΔV = 5 - ( 2+ 2) = 1 (expansion)

Part (c)

A ( g ) + B ( g ) ⟶ C ( g )

ΔV = 1 - ( 1 + 1) = -1 (compression)

Part (d)

2 A ( g ) + 2 B ( g ) ⟶ 3 C ( g )

ΔV = 3 - ( 4) = -1 (compression)

Thus, systems where there is gas expansion are in part (a) and part (b). The correct answers are:

(a) A ( s ) + B ( s ) ⟶ C ( g )

(b) 2 A ( g ) + 2 B ( g ) ⟶ 5 C ( g )

The backbone in a nucleic acids strand is called:

Nina [5.8K]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Backbone in a nucleic acids strand is made up of sugar molecules attached with phosphodiester bond.

This sugar-phosphate linkage helps in joining of nucleotides in a DNA sequence. Due to this backbone structural framework of nucleotides is formed. In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose.

Thus, we can conclude that the backbone in a nucleic acids strand is called sugar backbone.

The potential in an electrochemical cell, E, is related to the Gibb's free energy change (ΔG) for the overall cell redox reactio

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Explanation:

As an example, the following cell reaction: Zn(s) + Cu2+(aq) → Zn2+(aq) + Cu(m) generates a cell voltage of +1.10 V under standard conditions. Calculate and enter delta G degree (with 3 sig figs) for this reaction in kJ/mol.

Zn(s) + Cu2+(aq) → Zn2+(aq) + Cu(m)

ΔG = ΔG° + RTInQ

Q = 1

ΔG = ΔG°

ΔG = =nFE°

n=no of electrons transfered.

E° = 1.1v

ΔG° = -2 * 96500 * 1.10

= -212300J

ΔG° =-212.3kJ/mol

<h3>Therefore, the ΔG° = -212.3kJ/mol</h3>

Which agent would most likely

fredd [130]

Answer:

Wind

Explanation:

Most conifers and about 12% of the world's flowering plants are wind-pollinated. Wind pollinated plants include grasses and their cultivated cousins, the cereal crops, many trees, the infamous allergenic ragweeds, and others. All release billions of pollen grains into the air so that a lucky few will hit their targets.
