Answer:

Sexual reproduction uses two organisms in order to create another organism (reproduce). The organisms' offspring will have different traits than it's parent organisms. For example, if the offspring's female parent organism has green eyes and it's male parent organism has brown eyes, the offspring will have either green or brown eyes. If it has green eyes, the trait is known as the dominate trait while the brown eye trait is known as the recessive trait (or vise versa).

During asexual reproduction an organism, quite literally, splits itself in two. Thus creating a literal clone of itself. There is no difference between the original organism and it's cloned offspring.

Answer:

<u>Asexual reproduction</u> = An exact copy of the reproducer

<u>Sexual reproduction</u> = Genetic variation into the organism if a random mutation in the organism's DNA is transmitted to offspring.

Explanation:

Example of Asexual Reproduction diversity - A red apple has apple seeds. You plant the red apple seeds, and it grows up to be no different than the apple before it.

Sexual reproduction Example of diversity -Two parents are of different ethnicities. The female gets pregnant, but because of the different genetics from both of the parents, the child will inherit their genetics + some random mutation in the DNA.

This impacts the diversity of the offspring because it can be an exact copy of the reproducer (Asexual), or significantly different with some similarities if the mode of reproduction was sexual.

I really hope this helps you! Please tell me if it did or not. Good luck with your assignment/exam/quiz!

A student uses a dye to change the colour of his tee-shirt. he fills a metal bucket with water. When the bucket is heated, what

Tanya [424]

Answer:

The particles begin to vibrate faster and more.

Explanation:

Adding heat to matter increases the energy, thus creating more movement. Eventually, the bucket will melt, turning to a liquid. While it is a sold, it still has particle movement, just not enough to break volume or shape.

Will a precipitate of magnesium fluoride form when 300. mL of 1.1 × 10 –3 M MgCl 2 are added to 500. mL of 1.2 × 10 –3 M NaF? [K

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

No precipitate is formed.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the dissociation reaction of magnesium fluoride:

$MgF_2(s)\rightleftharpoons Mg^{2+}+2F^-$

And the undergoing chemical reaction:

$MgCl_2+2NaF\rightarrow MgF_2+2NaCl$

We need to compute the yielded moles of magnesium fluoride, but first we need to identify the limiting reactant for which we compute the available moles of magnesium chloride:

$n_{MgCl_2}=0.3L*1.1x10^{-3}mol/L=3.3x10^{-4}molMgCl_2$

Next, the moles of magnesium chloride consumed by the sodium fluoride:

$n_{MgCl_2}^{consumed}=0.5L*1.2x10^{-3}molNaF/L*\frac{1molCaCl_2}{2molNaF} =3x10^{-4}molMgCl_2$

Thus, less moles are consumed by the NaF, for which the moles of formed magnesium fluoride are:

$n_{MgF_2}=3x10^{-4}molMgCl_2*\frac{1molMgF_2}{1molMgCl_2}=3x10^{-4}molMgF_2$

Next, since the magnesium fluoride to magnesium and fluoride ions is in a 1:1 and 1:2 molar ratio, the concentrations of such ions are:

$[Mg^{2+}]=\frac{3x10^{-4}molMg^{+2}}{(0.3+0.5)L} =3.75x10^{-4}M$

$[F^-]=\frac{2*3x10^{-4}molMg^{+2}}{(0.3+0.5)L} =7.5x10^{-4}M$

Thereby, the reaction quotient is:

$Q=(3.75x10^{-4})(7.5x10^{-4})^2=2.11x10^{-10}$

In such a way, since Q<Ksp we say that the ions tend to be formed, so no precipitate is formed.

Regards.

When monovalent cation (X) binds to divalent anion (Y) it will form

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

When a monovalent cation X binds to a divalent anion Y, a compound with the formula $X_2Y$ would be formed.

A monovalent cation is an atom that has lost an electron. Hence, such cation has a single positive charge. A monovalent cation X will, thus, be $X^+$

A divalent anion is an atom that has gained two electrons. Such anion has 2 negative charge. Thus, divalent Y would be $Y^2^-$

Since Y is a divalent anion, it requires 2 electrons in order to successfully bind with another charged atom, a cation to be specific. Thus, two of $X^+$ would be required to successfully bind $Y^2^-$

$Y^2^-$ + $X^+$ + $X^+$ ----> $X_2Y$
