fspring all characteristics it had acquired in its lifetime. Which of these statements best explains why this theory is considered invalid at present? (1 point)
Modern scientists accept only new scientific theories.

Most of the scientists worldwide do not accept this theory.

All old theories change into new theories over a period of time.

Newspapers and science magazines do not publish this theory any more.

Answer:

Most of the scientists worldwide do not accept this theory.

Explanation:

Lamarck's theory states that acquired traits can be passed on from parents to offspring. This theory can not be sufficiently substantiated by indisputable scientific evidences hence it is not accepted by majority of scientists worldwide.

Since science is empirical and the theory is mostly based on vague speculations rather than concrete evidence, it was long rejected by many biologists.

This theory suggests that all life forms will gradually evolve from simple to complex organisms while the simple organisms gradually disappear. This is not the case.

A chunk of copper has a volume of 1.45 mL and a mass of 12.93 grams. What is the density of the chunk of copper?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Density = 8.92 \ g/mL

Explanation:

The equation for density is:

Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

We plug in the given values:

Density = \frac{12.93 \ g}{1.45 \ mL}

Density = 8.92 \ g/mL

levacccp [35]

Answer:

ΔS = -661.0J/mol is the entropy change for the system

ΔS = -842J/mol.K is the entropy change for the surroundings

Explanation:

From the relationship between ΔG, T, ΔH and ΔS,

Mathematically, ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

TΔS = ΔH - ΔS

ΔS = ΔH - ΔS / T

but ΔG = -54 kJ/mol, ΔH = -251 kJ/mol and T = 25 °C (298 K)

plugging into the equation,

ΔS = -251 kJ/mol - ( -54 kJ/mol) / 298

ΔS  = -0.6610KJ/mol or in J.mol

ΔS = -661.0J/mol is the entropy change for the system

  • For entropy change for the surroundings = ΔS = ΔH/T
  • ΔS  = -251 kJ/mol / 298K
  • ΔS = -0.84KJ/mol.K or -842J/mol.K is the entropy change for the surroundings

Find the number of moles of barium iodide if you have 5.23 x 1024 formula units of Bal2
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

8.68 moles of BaI₂

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of BaI₂ = ?

Number of formula units = 5.23× 10²⁴

Solution:

By using Avogadro number,

1 mole of any  substance contain 6.022× 10²³ formula units.

5.23× 10²⁴ formula units of BaI₂ × 1 mol / 6.022× 10²³ formula units

0.868 × 10¹ moles of BaI₂

8.68 moles of BaI₂

Thus, 5.23× 10²⁴ formula units of BaI₂ contain 8.68 moles of BaI₂

A chemical plant produces ammonia using the following reaction at a very high temperature and pressure. Which design issue is mo
Lorico [155]

Answer:

D. The equipment needed to accommodate the high temperature and pressure will be expensive to produce.​

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the considered reaction, it is clear it is an exothermic reaction because it produces energy; and therefore, the higher the temperature the more reactants are yielded as the reverse reaction is favored. Moreover, since the effect of pressure is verified as favoring the side with fewer moles; in this case the products side (2 moles of ammonia).

In such a way, the high pressure favors the formation of ammonia whereas the high temperature the formation of hydrogen and nitrogen and therefore, option A is ruled out. Since the high pressure shifts the reaction rightwards and the high temperature leftwards, we would not be able to know whether the reaction has ended or not because it will be a "go and come back" process, that is why B is also discarded. Now, since hydrogen and nitrogen would be the "wastes", we discard C because they are not toxic. That is why the most accurate answer would be D. because it is actually true that such equipment is quite expensive.

Best regards!
