Which part of the chemical equation is incorrect?

Biology
1 answer:
aleksandr82 [10.1K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: Thus the coefficient of oxygen is incorrect.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The given chemical equation for combustion of butane is

2C_4H_{10}+10O_2\rightarrow 8CO_2+10H_2O

The balanced chemical equation for combustion of butane is :

2C_4H_{10}+13O_2\rightarrow 8CO_2+10H_2O

Thus the coefficient of oxygen is incorrect.

Which best describes a gene?​
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Asegment of chromosomal DNA

Explanation:

A gene is a hereditary unit consisting of a sequence of DNA that occupies a specific location on a chromosome and determines a particular characteristic in an organism. Genes undergo mutation when their DNA sequence changes. It is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Genes are made up of DNA. Some genes act as instructions to make molecules called proteins. However, many genes do not code for proteins. Alleles are forms of the same gene with small differences in their sequence of DNA bases. These small differences contribute to each person's unique physical features.

Glucokinase and hexokinase in glycolysis
Delicious77 [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Glucokinase or Hexokinase is a enzyme used at the first step of glycolysis.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>
  • Glucokinase is a Isoenzyme(enzymes which differs in the sequence of amino acids but catalyses the same reaction) of Hexokinase .
  • Glucokinase (hexokinase D) is present only in liver and pancreas whereas hexokinase is present in all cells.
  • In first step of glycolysis i.e formation of glucose-6-phosphate from glucose is completed with the help of hexokinase. In this step a ATP molecule is consumed i.e ATP is converted to ADP

Result: Glucokinase and hexokinase are used in the first step of glycolysis.

How can recycling impact the environment? A) It uses less energy to make something from recycled materials than from new materia
o-na [289]

Answer:

A) It uses less energy to make something from recycled materials than from new materials.

Explanation:

When a recycled material is used to make a new product, it conserves energy because the recycled materials have already been processed once; so making something from it for the second time uses less energy-intensive than the first. For example: Making new aluminium from old products uses 95% less energy than making it from scratch.

Hence, the correct answer is "A)"

If a scientist wanted to follow mendel’s experiment with a different kind of plant, which type of plant would she examine? a pla
Dovator [93]

The correct answer is option a plant that has only two alleles for a trait.

In order to perform the Mendel's experiment, the conditions should be similar to the Mendel's actual experiment. The Mendel experiments shows the presence of two alleles controlling a single trait. So, in order to study the plant as the Mendel did, the person should choose a plant which have two alleles for a particular trait.

The plant must be able to self and cross pollinate in order to study the Mendelian characteristics accurately. IF a plant carry only recessive allele, then the effect of the dominant allele cannot be studied, so, the plant carrying only recessive allele should not be studied. Studying three allele coding for the same trait would be difficult to study the Mendelian characters, so, this plants should not be examined to study Mendel's experiment.
