Answer:

B. Thicker layer of blubber

Explanation:

For the leopard seals to survives this harsh environment, it must have a thicker layer of blubber

Blubber is a thick layer of fat. It is called the adipose tissues and found in most marine organisms.

  • This layer helps in insulating the body against heat loss.
  • By so doing, the animal is able to conserve internal heat.
  • They have low thermal conductivity and do not easily lose heat or gain heat as such.

How many moles are present in 3.4 x 1023 atoms of Na?
Andrej [43]
<h3><u>moles of H2SO4</u></h3>

Avogadro's number (6.022 × 1023) is defined as the number of atoms, molecules, or "units of anything" that are in a mole of that thing. So to find the number of moles in 3.4 x 1023 molecules of H2SO4, divide by 6.022 × 1023 molecules/mole and you get 0.5646 moles but there are only 2 sig figs in the given so we need to round to 2 sig figs. There are 0.56 moles in 3.4 x 1023 molecules of H2SO4

Note the way this works is to make sure the units are going to give us moles. To check, we do division of the units just like we were dividing two fractions:

(molecules of H2SO4) = (molecules of H2SO4)/1 and so we have 3.4 x 1023/6.022 × 1023 [(molecules of H2SO4)/1]/[(molecules of H2SO4)/(moles of H2SO4)]. Now, invert the denominator and multiply:
