The correct answer is letter B. Genetic engineering has shown a great leap in Science because we can now harness the ability of mutations of cells in crops and in other aspects. Flour is a commodity that is greatly needed by the masses and learning how to genetically modify its components to help it breed better is a great advantage for any society.

In order to derive a simplified version of the Nernst equation by assuming standard temperature we can substitute which of the f
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

c. 298 K

Explanation:

Nernst equation is an equation used in electrochemistry that relates the reduction potential of a reaction with the standard potential, temperature and concentrations of the reactants in that are been reducted and oxidized. The formula is:

E = E° - RT / nF ln [Red] / [Ox]

<em>Where R is gas constant (8.314J/molK), T is absolute temperature (In Kelvin), n are moles of electrons and F is faraday constant (K/Volt*mol)</em>

<em />

In electrochemistry, standard temperature is taken as 298K. That means by assuming standard temperature we can substitute T as:

How do core electrons relate to the ionization energy of the atom?
Archy [21]

Answer:

For any given element, ionization energy increases as subsequent electrons are removed. For example, the energy required to remove an electron from neutral chlorine is 1251 kJ/mol. ... An even sharper increase in ionization energy is witnessed when inner-shell, or core, electrons are removed.

Hope it helps :)

Rank the following fertilizers in decreasing order of mass percentage of nitrogen:
charle [14.2K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

        NH₃ > NH₄NO₃ > (NH₄)₂HPO₄ > (NH₄)₂SO₄ > KNO₃ > (NH₄)H₂PO₄

<h3>Soution:</h3>

In (NH₄)₂HPO₄:

Mass of Nitrogen  =  N × 2  =  14 × 2  =  28 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of (NH₄)₂HPO₄  =  132.06 g.mol⁻¹

Mass %age  =  Mass of N / M.Mass of (NH₄)₂HPO₄ × 100

Mass %age  =  28 g.mol⁻¹ / 132.06 g.mol⁻¹ × 100

Mass %age  =  21.20 %

In (NH₄)₂SO₄:

Mass of Nitrogen  =  N × 2  =  14 × 2  =  28 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄  =  132.14 g.mol⁻¹

Mass %age  =  Mass of N / M.Mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ × 100

Mass %age  =  28 g.mol⁻¹ / 132.14 g.mol⁻¹ × 100

Mass %age  =  21.18 %

In KNO₃:

Mass of Nitrogen  =  N × 1  =  14 × 1  =  14 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of KNO₃  =  101.10 g.mol⁻¹

Mass %age  =  Mass of N / M.Mass of KNO₃ × 100

Mass %age  =  14 g.mol⁻¹ / 101.10 g.mol⁻¹ × 100

Mass %age  =  13.84 %

In (NH₄)H₂PO₄:

Mass of Nitrogen  =  N × 1  =  14 × 1  =  14 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of (NH₄)H₂PO₄  =  115.03 g.mol⁻¹

Mass %age  =  Mass of N / M.Mass of (NH₄)H₂PO₄ × 100

Mass %age  =  14 g.mol⁻¹ / 115.03 g.mol⁻¹ × 100

Mass %age  =  12.17 %

In NH₃:

Mass of Nitrogen  =  N × 1  =  14 × 1  =  14 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of NH₃  =  132.14 g.mol⁻¹

Mass %age  =  Mass of N / M.Mass of NH₃ × 100

Mass %age  =  14 g.mol⁻¹ / 17.03 g.mol⁻¹ × 100

Mass %age  =  82.20 %

In NH₄NO₃:

Mass of Nitrogen  =  N × 2  =  14 × 2  =  28 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of NH₄NO₃  =  80.04 g.mol⁻¹

Mass %age  =  Mass of N / M.Mass of NH₄NO₃ × 100

Mass %age  =  28 g.mol⁻¹ / 80.04 g.mol⁻¹ × 100

Mass %age  =  34.98 %

Andrew [12]

The structure of tofacitinib with explicit carbon and hydrogen is the first attached picture.

The number of carbon atoms in tofacitinib are 16.

The molecular formula of tofacitinib is C_{16}H_{20}N_{6}O.

The structure of tofacitinib with all the filled hydrogen atoms is the second attached picture.

A 0.529-g sample of gas occupies 125 ml at 60. cm of hg and 25°c. what is the molar mass of the gas?
Llana [10]

<span>Let's </span>assume that the gas has ideal gas behavior. <span>
Then we can use ideal gas formula,
PV = nRT<span>

</span><span>Where, P is the pressure of the gas (Pa), V is the volume of the gas (m³), n is the number of moles of gas (mol), R is the universal gas constant ( 8.314 J mol</span></span>⁻¹ K⁻¹) and T is temperature in Kelvin.<span>
<span>
</span>P = 60 cm Hg = 79993.4 Pa
V = </span>125  mL = 125 x 10⁻⁶ m³

n = ?

<span> R = 8.314 J mol</span>⁻¹ K⁻¹<span>
T = 25 °C = 298 K
<span>
By substitution,
</span></span>79993.4 Pa<span> x </span>125 x 10⁻⁶ m³ = n x 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ x 298 K<span>
                                          n = 4.0359 x 10</span>⁻³ mol

<span>
Hence, moles of the gas</span> = 4.0359 x 10⁻³ mol<span>

Moles = mass / molar mass

</span>Mass of the gas  = 0.529 g 

<span>Molar mass of the gas</span> = mass / number of moles<span>
                                    = </span>0.529 g / 4.0359 x 10⁻³ mol<span>
<span>                                    = </span>131.07 g mol</span>⁻¹<span>

Hence, the molar mass of the given gas is </span>131.07 g mol⁻¹
