Answer:

D 4P +3O₂ → 2 P₂O₃

Explanation:

In this problem, we need to convert the mass of phosphorus and oxygen to moles trying to find the ratio of reaction (The moles of P that reacts per mole of O₂):

<em>Moles P:</em>

12.4g P * (1mol P / 31g) = 0.4 moles

<em>Moles O₂:</em>

9.6g * (1mol / 32g) = 0.3 moles

The ratio of reaction is:

0.4 mol / 0.3 mol = 1.33 = 4 moles of P / 3 moles of O₂

That means 4 moles of P react with 3 moles of O₂ and the reaction that represents this ratio is:

<h3>D 4P +3O₂ → 2 P₂O₃</h3>

Why is asexual reproduction simpler in prokaryotes?
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

In asexual reproduction, a single parent produces genetically identical offspring. As prokaryotes do not have a nucleus, and have only one circular chromosome, they do not need to reproduce by the same mechanism as eukaryotic cells; mitosis does not exist in prokaryotic cells.

Copper atoms are used to produce pennies. The copper atoms in pennies share many electrons. Pennies contain
kaheart [24]

Answer:

Metallic bonds

Explanation:

Metallic bonds joins atoms of metals and atoms of alloys together. The copper used in making pennies is a metallic substance so it contains metallic bonds.

  • The formation of this bond type is predicated on the large atomic radius, low ionization energy and large number of electrons in the valence shell.
  • The bond is an attraction between the positive nuclei of all closely packed atoms in the lattice and the electron cloud.
  • The electron cloud is jointly formed by all the atoms by losing their outermost shell electrons.

This way the bond in pennies are metallic in nature.

Read the descriptions below of two substances and an experiment on each. Decide whether the result of the experiment tells you t
muminat

Answer:

Sample A is  a pure substance

Sample B is a mixture

Explanation:

We are told that the when the yellow solid, sample A is ground it turned to orange colour  and was then dissolved. Some part of the solid settled out at the bottom of the beaker while some part floated on top of the water. 50g of the solid was dissolved and 50.1g of the solid was recovered.

This implies that the substance is pure since the mass dissolved was almost the same mass recovered. The 0.1g addition in mass may result from incomplete drying of the solid.

For sample B, the distillation of the sample of density 0.77 g/ml left a fraction in the beaker with density 1.04 g/ml indicating that the substance is a mixture. Different components of a mixture possess different densities.
