In evolutionary biology, a common ancestor is allegedly a link between two varying branches or types of creatures. (Another word for these is 'missing links', since up to this point, not a single one of these common ancestors has been found in the fossil record)
Hope that helped =)

If 97.7 ml of silver nitrate solution reacts with excess potassium chloride solution to yield 0.326 g of precipitate, what is th
BlackZzzverrR [31]

The complete balanced chemical reaction is written as:

AgNO3 + KCl ---> AgCl + KNO3 

where AgCl is our precipitate

 

So calculating for moles of AgCl produced: MM AgCl = 143.5 g/mol

moles AgCl = 0.326 g / (143.5 g/mol) = 2.27 x 10^-3 mol

we see that there is 1 mole of Ag per 1 mole of AgCl so:

moles Ag = 2.27 x 10^-3 mol

 

The molarity is simply the ratio of number of moles over volume in Liters, therefore:

Molarity = 2.27 x 10^-3 mol / 0.0977 L

<span>Molarity = 0.0233 M</span>

A fusion reaction releases energy because the binding energy of the resulting nucleus:______.
KIM [24]

Answer:

a. is released in the process

Explanation:

In fusion reaction the nucleus is unstable so it releases its binding energy resulting in decreasing its mass so it becomes more stable.

A gas occupies a volume of 31.0 ml at 19.0°C. If the gas temperature rises to 38.0°C at constant pressure. Calculate the new vol
Alik [6]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.0033 L (33.0 mL)

Explanation:

We uses the Charles's law which describes the changes in the volume (V) of a gas and its temperature in Kelvin (T) at constant pressure. The mathematical expression is the following:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

We have the following data:

V₁= 31.0 mL = 0.0031 L

T₁= 19.0°C = 292 K

T₂= 38.0°C = 311 K

V₂= ?

We calculate V₂ from the mathematical expression, as follows:

V₂= V₁/T₁ x T₂ = 0.0031 L/(292 K) x 311 K = 0.0033 L

The compound trimethylamine, (CH3)3N, is a weak base when dissolved in water. Write the Kb expression for the weak base equilibr
Zina [86]

Answer:

Kb = [OH⁻] . [C₃H₉NH⁺] / [ C₃H₉N ]

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction of trimethylamine when it is dissolved in water is:

C₃H₉N  +  H₂O ⇄ C₃H₉NH⁺ + OH⁻   Kb

1 mol of trimethylamine catches a proton from the water in order to produce trimethylamonium.

It is a base, because it give OH⁻ to the medium

Expression for Kb (Molar concentration)

Kb = [OH⁻] . [C₃H₉NH⁺] / [ C₃H₉N ]

Which of the two substances would have a higher melting point: O2 or quartz (SiO2)n? Explain your answer.
sesenic [268]

Answer:

quartz (SiO2)n

Explanation:

Melting point is defined as the temperature or point at which the substances change its state from solid to liquid.

Quartz (SiO2)n has high melting point than O2 because Quartz (SiO2)n is found in the form of hard, crystalline mineral that is made up of silicon and oxygen atoms having strong covalent bonds between all the atoms. So, a lot of energy is required to break the bond between the atoms and it has a high melting point.

Hence, the correct answer is quartz (SiO2)n.
