You have run an experiment studying the effects of the molecular weight of a compound on the rate of diffusion in agar. Compound

X has a molecular weight of 25.3 g/mol and compound Y has a molecular mass of 156.2 g/mol. On two separate agar plates, 0.1 g of each substance were transferred and allowed to diffuse for 2 hours. The results below were obtained. Use this information about this situation to answer the following three questions.
a. What was the independent variable in this experiment?
b. What was the independent variable in this experiment?
c. List two controls that were held constant for this experiment or that you would hold constant for this experiment

Answer:

A) Molecular weight

B) Rate of diffusion

C) Agar plates

Time of diffusion

Explanation:

A) The independent variable is the molecular weight because it is the variable that the researcher changes at will to aid his research. It doesn't depend on other variables.

B) The dependent variable is "Rate of diffusion because it depends on the molecular weight of the compound.

C) A control variable is one that would be held constant throughout the research.

In this case, the agar plates and the time of 2 hours diffusion remain the same throughout.

Which substance in the reaction serves as the electrophile?'?
jok3333 [9.3K]

Electrophiles are reagents attracted to electrons.

Electrophiles tend to be electron-deficient and carry partial positive charges. They are attracted to species with lone pairs of electrons. For example, protons \text{H}^+ have no electrons and tend to share ones with other species, hence behaving as electrophiles in aqueous reactions. In the reaction between \text{H}^+ and ammonia \text{NH}_3, protons would be attracted to lone electron pairs on nitrogen atoms in ammonia molecules, which carry partial positive charges.

The Lewis Acid-base theory define Acids as species that accept electron pairs in a particular acid-base reaction. Electrophiles, by definition, tend to accept electrons. Lewis acids thus behaves as electrophiles in acid-base reactions. In the previous example, \text{H}^+ demonstrates acidic behavior and can be inferred as an electrophile.

sugar taken in a boiling tube is strongly heated. a) write the procedure of this experiment . b) which are the products obtained
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

chemical changes

Explanation:

A chemical change is one in which a new kind of matter is formed. It is always accompanied by energy changes. The process is not easily reversible and hence, it is a permanent procedure.

Burning of charcoal produces a new kind of produces in the combustion process.

Both heating of copper(ii)carbonate strongly and zinc oxide will lead to a decomposition reaction in which new compounds are formed.

A tiger cub has a pattern of stripes on its fur that is similar to that of its parents. Where are the instructions stored that p
madreJ [45]

Answer:

On genes within chromosomes

Explanation:

-The fur pattern is a genetic trait whose instruction is carried in the DNA's base sequence.

-These instructions are organized into genes and each gene is only responsble for the making of a functional product.

-Hence, the instructions are stored on genes within chromosomes.
