Answer:

B. Distributed over a very wide range

D. Limited life existence in geologic time.

Explanation:

Index fossils are very unique fossils that helps in determining the relative ages of rocks and biostratigraphic correlation. They are usually called guide fossils.

Fossils are the preserved remains of dead organisms found in rocks.
Index fossils are a special class of fossils with the following properties;

They are widely distributed.
They have a short stratigraphic range.
They show rapid evolution trends

How much time would it take to distribute one avagadro's number of wheat grains if 10^10 grains are A)1.9*10^2 years B)1.9*10^10

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

It takes 1.9 $\times 10^{6}$ years to distribute all the grains.

Explanation:

In one second, $10^{10}$ grains of wheat are distributed.

We are supposed to find the time it would take to Distribute Avogadro number of grains.

1 avogadro number = 6.022 $\times 10^{23}$

Number of grains distributed in 1 day = 86400 $\times 10^{10}$

= 8.64 $\times 10^{14}$

Number of grains distributed in 1 year= 8.64 $\times 10^{14} \times 365$

= 3.1536 $\times 10^{17}$

Time taken = $\frac{Number of grains to be distributed}{grains distributed in 1 year}$

= $\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23}}{3.1536\times 10^{17}}$

= 1.9 $\times 10^{6}$

Which one of the following compounds will be least soluble in water?

algol [13]

Water is a polar solvent. Since, 'Like dissolves like' a polar compound will be most soluble in water whereas a non-polar compound will be the least soluble.

The increasing order of polarity for the given organic compounds is:-

CH3OCH3 < CH3NH2 < CH3CHO < CH3CH2OH

Ether is the least polar and hence least soluble in water.

Determine the oxidation number of each element in these compounds or ions. (a) au2(seo4)3 (gold(iii) selenate) au = se = o = (b)

Stels [109]

<span> Au</span>₂(SeO₄)₃

O = -2 × 4 = -8
Se = + 6
So,
(+6 - 8) = -2

Means (SeO₄) contains -2 charge, Now multiply -2 by 3

-2 ₓ 3 = -6
Means,
Au₂ + (-6) = 0

Au₂ = +6
Or,
Au = 6 / 2

Au = +3
Result:
Au = +3
Se = +6
O = -2

Ni(CN)₂

Cyanide (CN⁻) contains -1 charge,
So,
N = -3
C = +2
Then,
Ni + (-1)₂ = 0

Ni - 2 = 0
Or,
Ni = +2
Result:
N = -3
C = +2
Ni = +2
