Answer: 568g/mol

Explanation:

It should be noted that there are 40 atoms of carbon in lycopene.

Since mass of 1 carbon = 12g/mol

Mass of 40 carbon atoms = 40 × 12g/mol = 480g/mol

Let the molar mass of lycopene be represented by x.

Therefore the molar mass of carbon = x × mass percent of carbon in lycopene

x × 84.49% = 480g/mol

x × 0.8449 = 480g/mol

x = 480/0.8449

x = 568g/mol

The molar mass of lycopene is 568g/mol

How are cone bearing trees and static electricity connected
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer: Static electricity will help in seed dispersal in cone bearing seeds.

Explanation:

Static electricity is the stationary electric charge produced by the friction. The static electricity can be produced by the turbulence or air currents in the storm clouds. This is responsible for the cause of lightening phenomena.

The cone bearing seeds exhibit cones that are hard and woody in nature.  The static electricity due to the effect of lightening generate electrical shock which breaks open the cone and disperse the seeds. Thus the static electricity is important for seed dispersal in cone bearing trees.
