Answer: d. have the silicon-oxygen tetrahedron as their structural unit.

Explanation:

Silicates are anions that have both Oxygen and Silicon as the basis of their structure. These two form a tetrahedron type structure that enable them to be useful for a whole lot of things.

Silicates are very abundant on Earth as they comprise around 95% of the Earth's crust as well as the upper mantle which explains why they are mostly found in igneous rocks.

Phosphorus trichloride gas and chlorine gas react to form phosphorus pentachloride gas: PCl3(g)+Cl2(g)⇌PCl5(g). A 7.5-L gas vess
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The equilibrium constant in terms of concentration that is, K_c=3.6243\times 10^{3} .

Explanation:

PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_5(g)

The relation of K_c\& K_p is given by:

K_p=K_c(RT)^{\Delta n_g}

K_p= Equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure.=98.1

K_c= Equilibrium constant in terms of concentration  =?

T = temperature at which the equilibrium reaction is taking place.

R = universal gas constant

\Delta n_g = Difference between gaseous moles on product side and reactant side=n_{g,p}-n_{g.r}=1-2=-1

98.1=K_c(RT)^{-1}

98.1 =\frac{K_c}{RT}

K_c=98.1\times 0.0821 L atm/mol K\times 450 K=3,624.30=3.6243\times 10^{3}

The equilibrium constant in terms of concentration that is, K_c=3.6243\times 10^{3} .

Do plasmids have an importance beyond the practice of genetic engineering?
kozerog [31]
Answer: Yes

Explanation: Plasmids offer a number of unique characteristics that make genetic engineering much more efficient. Plasmids are a type of non-chromosomal DNA. Integrating DNA into a bacterial or other chromosome is far more complex than simply putting DNA into a cell; plasmids make it easier to transport DNA into a cell by eliminating this step.

If you performed this experiment using mgcl2 as the solute would the molar concentration of mgcl2 that is isotonic to the potato
Mama L [17]
The answer to this question would be: lower molar concentration

Osmotic pressure is influenced by the number of ions and the concentration of the molecule in the solution. In NaCl, the molecule will split into 1 Na+ ion and 1 Cl- ion which results in 2 ions per compound. In MgCl2, the compound will split into 1 Mg2+ ion and 2 Cl- ion which results in 3 ions. Therefore, the osmotic pressure of MgCl2 will be 3/2 times of NaCl.
MgCl2 will need less concentration to achieve same osmotic pressure as NaCl. If the MgCl2 solution is isotonic with NaCl, the concentration of MgCl2 would be lower than NaCl

I neeeedddd hhheeelppppppllsssss​
padilas [110]

Answer:

I believe that it is the 2nd option.

Explanation:

My reasonings are because C4H10O has 7 isomers. In which 4 are alcohol and the other 3 are ether.

The first option is ethers, specifically ethoxyethane.

The third option is ethers, specifically 1-methoxypropane.

The fourth option is an alcohol, specifically 1- butanol.

Therefore, leads us to the 2nd option that it is NOT an isomer of C4H10O
