Answer:

Molarity is halved when the volume of solvent is doubled.

Explanation:

Using the dilution equation (volume 1)(molarity 1)=(volume 2)(molarity 2), we can demonstrate the effects of doubling volume.

Suppose the starting volume is 1 L and the starting molarity is 1 M, and doubling the volume would make the final volume 2 L.

Plugging these numbers into the equation, we can figure out the final molarity.

(1 L)(1 M)=(2 L)(X M)

X M= (1 L x 1 M)/(2 L)

X M= 1/2 M

This shows that the molarity is halved when the volume of solvent is doubled.

Answer:

Organisms become more complex over time.

Explanation:

We all evolved from the first bacteria, which was relatively simple. We see over time that things become more adapted, slowly adding eyes, lungs, behavioral patterns, and consciousness.

It took 380,000 years for electrons to be trapped in orbits around nuclei, forming the first atoms.

These were mainly helium and hydrogen, which are still by far the most abundant elements in the universe. Present observations suggest that the first stars formed from clouds of gas around 150–200 million years after the Big Bang. Heavier atoms such as carbon, oxygen and iron, have since been continuously produced in the hearts of stars and catapulted throughout the universe in spectacular stellar explosions called supernovae.
