Answer:

Glucose is a simple sugar with the molecular formula C₆H₁₂O₆. Glucose is the most abundant monosaccharide, a subcategory of carbohydrates.

Glucose is mainly made by plants and most algae during photosynthesis from water and carbon dioxide, using energy from sunlight, where it is used to make cellulose in cell walls, which is the most abundant carbohydrate.

Substance X is a compound containing 632mg of manganese and 368mg of oxygen. Substance X is shown
defon

The empirical formula : MnO₂.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

632mg of manganese(Mn) = 0.632 g

368mg of oxygen(O) = 0.368 g

M Mn = 55

M O = 16

Required

The empirical formula

Solution

You didn't include the pictures, but the steps for finding the empirical formula are generally the same

  • Find mol(mass : atomic mass)

Mn : 0.632 : 55 = 0.0115

O : 0.368 : 16 =0.023

  • Divide by the smallest mol(Mn=0.0115)

Mn : O =

\tt \dfrac{0.0115}{0.0115}\div \dfrac{0.023}{0.0115}=1\div 2

The empirical formula : MnO₂

Why are isotopes with short half-lives not useful for dating very old rocks?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

The radioactive isotopes within these brains typically record the ages of the grains-not the time when the sedimentary rock was formed, making it difficult to date using radiometric dating. The half-life of U-235 is 704 million years.

Explanation:

hope this helps but if i'm wrong then i'm sorry..

You discover a piece of jewelry that you think might be made of silver. You place the item on a balance and determine that it ha
Amanda [17]

No, this item is not made of pure silver because if it has been made from pure silver that it would have displaced only 1.16cm³ of water but due to the addition of some other low-density element it displaces 1.9cm³ of water.

<u>For pure silver</u>

density of pure silver is = 10.49 g/cm³

mass of silver = 12.2 gram

since, density = mass/volume

          volume = mass/density

                        = 12.2/10.49 cm³

                         = 1.16 cm³

But the actual displaced water is <u>1.9cm³</u>, which means some other element of lower density has been added.

Therefore, it is clear that the given jewelry is not made of pure silver.

How does plastic impact the environment as a result of human activities
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

As a result of human activities, plastic impacts the envionment in negative way that leads to serious environmental danger.

Explanation:

When we don't throw away plastic materials correctly, it causes littering. Well, this can also lead to piles of that, meaning that it is spreading toxins. Littering may also lead to blockages in flowing streams, lakes, river, ground water, big bodies of water, and small bodies of water. This also can contribute to global warming because plastic are made from chemicals that come from the production of fuels like oil, gas, coal and possible more.
