Answer:

Gene mutation

Explanation:

A gene mutation is a permanent alteration in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene, such that the sequence differs from what is found in most people. Mutations range in size; they can affect anywhere from a single DNA building block base pair to a large segment of a chromosome that includes multiple genes

What volume in milliliters of 1.420 M sulfuric acid is needed to neutralize 3.209 g of aluminum hydroxide 3 H 2 SO 4 (aq)+2 Al(O

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

$V=43.46mL$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the reaction between sulfuric acid and aluminum hydroxide is:

$3H_2SO_4+2Al(OH)_3\rightarrow Al_2(SO_4)_3+6H_2O$

Whereas the ratio of sulfuric acid to aluminum hydroxide is 3:2; thus, we first compute the moles of sulfuric acid that complete react with 3.209 g of aluminum hydroxide:

$n_{H_2SO_4}=3.209gAl(OH)_3*\frac{1molAl(OH)_3}{78.00gAl(OH)_3} *\frac{3molH_2SO_4}{2molAl(OH)_3} \\\\n_{H_2SO_4}=0.0617molH_2SO_4$

Then, given the molarity, it is possible to obtain the milliliters as follows:

$V=\frac{n}{M}=\frac{0.0617mol}{1.420mol/L}*\frac{1000mL}{1L}\\\\V=43.46mL$

Best regards!

To achieve the highest return during recrystallization of a given solid, one must: Group of answer choices Add the minimum amoun

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Addition of too much of solvent will make the solution dilute due to which the crystals will not form. Hence option D is incorrect

On the other hand adding a minimum amount of boiling solvent will give a saturated solution for recrystallization. Hence, option A is incorrect

Addition of cold solvent will lower the rate of formation of crystals. Hence, both option B and C are incorrect

During a laboratory experiment, a 2.36-gram sample of NaHCO3 was thermally decomposed. In this experiment, carbon dioxide and wa

eduard

Answer:

90.7 %

Explanation:

1) Chemical equation (given)

2NaHCO₃ → Na₂CO₃ + H₂CO₃

2) Theoretical yield

a) Convert mass of NaHCO₃ to moles:

n = mass in grams / molar mass
molar mass = 84.007 g/mol
n = 2.36 g / 84.007 g/mol = 0.02809 mol

b) Mole ratio:

2 mol NaHCO₃ : 1 mol H₂CO₃

c) Proportionality:

2 mol NaHCO₃ / mol H₂CO₃ = 0.02809 mol NaHCO₃ / x

⇒ x = 0.2809 / 2 mol H₂CO₃ = 0.01405 mol H₂CO₃

3) Actual yield

a) Mass balance: 2.36 g - 1.57 g = 0.79 g

b) Convert 0.79 g of carbonic acid to number of moles:

n = mass in grams / molar mass

molar mass = 62.03 g/mol

n = 0.79 g / 62.03 g/mol = 0.01274 mol

4) Percentage yield, y (%)

y (%) = actual yield / theoretical yield × 100

y (%) = 0.1274 mol / 0.1405 mol × 100 = 90.68%

The answer must show 3 significant figures, so y(%) = 90.7%.
