Softa [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Cellular division has three main functions: (1) the reproduction of an entire unicellular organism, (2) the growth and repair of tissues in multicellular animals, and (3) the formation of gametes (eggs and sperm) for sexual reproduction in multicellular animals.

Tissue repair / replacement.

Organismal growth.

Asexual reproduction.

Development (of embryos)

The substance water always has a mass ratio of 11% H to 89% O. If 5.00g of a substance containing H and O was decomposed into .2
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

                    No the substance is not water.

Explanation:

                   The balance chemical equation for the decomposition of water is as follow;

                                           2 H₂O = 2 H₂ + O₂

Step 1: <u>Calculate moles of H₂O;</u>

               Moles  =  Mass / M.Mass

               Moles  =  5.0 g / 18.01 g/mol

               Moles  =  0.277 moles of H₂O

Step 2: <u>Calculate Moles of O₂ and H₂ produced by 0.277 moles of H₂O:</u>

According to equation,

                        2 moles of H₂O produced  =  1 mole of O₂

So,

                  0.277 moles of H₂O will produce  =  X moles of O₂

Solving for X,

                     X =  0.277 mol × 1 mol / 2 mol

                     X =  0.138 moles of O₂

Also,

According to equation,

                        2 moles of H₂O produced  =  2 mole of H₂

So,

                  0.277 moles of H₂O will produce  =  X moles of H₂

Solving for X,

                     X =  0.277 mol × 2 mol / 2 mol

                     X =  0.227 moles of H₂

Step 3: <u>Calculate Mass of O₂ and H₂ as;</u>

For O₂:

                 Mass  =  Moles × M.Mass

                 Mass  =  0.138 mol × 31.99 g/mol

                 Mass  =  4.44 g of O₂

For H₂:

                 Mass  =  Moles × M.Mass

                 Mass  =  0.227 mol × 2.01 g/mol

                 Mass  =  0.559 g of H₂

Conclusion:

                   From conclusion it is proved that the amount of H₂ produced by decomposition of 5 g of water should be 0.559 g while in statement it is less i.e. 0.290 g.

4.50 g of a certain Compound X, known to be made of carbon, hydrogen and perhaps oxygen, and to have a molecular molar mass of 1
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

\mathbf{C_{10}H_8}   ( Naphthalene )

Explanation:

Given that:

4.50 g of a Compound X is made up of Carbon , Hydron and Oxygen

It's molecular molar mass = 128 g/mol

Compound X undergoes combustion reaction and the product yield :

CO_2 with mass 15.47g and :

H_2O with mass 2.53 g

The objective is to use this information to determine the molecular formula of X.

We all know that ; number of moles = mass/molar mass

where the molar mass of H_2O is 18 g/mol

number of moles of H_2O product = 2.53 g/18 g/mol

number of moles of H_2O product = 0.1406 moles

Also; the molar mass of CO_2 product = 44 g/mol

number of moles of CO_2 product = 15.47g/ 44 g/mol

number of moles of CO_2 product =  0.3516 moles

number of moles of Compound X in the reactant side= 4.50 g /128 g/mol

number of moles of Compound X n the reactant side= 0.03516 moles

Now; number number of moles of CO_2 in reactant = 0.3516 moles/0.03516 moles

Now; number number of moles of CO_2 in reactant = 10

number of moles of H_2O reactant = 0.1406 moles × 2/0.03516

number of moles of H_2O reactant = 7.997 ≅ 8

Since we said the Compound X is known to be made of Carbon C , Hydrogen H and Oxygen O

Then the molecular formula can be written as :

\mathbf{C_{10}H_8O_{x}}

In order to find the x; we have

128  = (12 × 10 + 1 × 8 + 16 × x)

128 = 120 + 8 + 16x)

128  =  128 + 16 x

128 - 128 = 16 x

0 = 16 x

x = 0/16

x = 0

As x = 0 ; hence there are no oxygen present in the reaction

Thus; the molecular formula of Compound X = \mathbf{C_{10}H_8} which is also known as Naphthalene
