Explanation:
Start with a balanced equation.
2H2 + O2 → 2H2O
Assuming that H2 is in excess, multiply the given moles H2O by the mole ratio between O2 and H2O in the balanced equation so that moles H2O cancel.
5 mol H2O × (1 mol O2/2 mol H2O) = 2.5 mol O2
Answer: 2.5 mol O2 are needed to make 5 mol H2O, assuming H2 is in excess.
Answer: Darwin spent five years on his journey as the ship's naturalist on the H.M.S. Beagle. Some of the evidence he used to support his theory was based on fossils he saw in South America. In the 1800's, most people were of the belief that the world was only a few thousand years old and that organisms that existed were unchanged since the beginning. However, the fossil evidence that he found showed giant versions of modern animals that no longer existed. It pointed to the idea of an ancestor that may have changed over time to the modern life forms that exist today. He also noted that the most likely place that the life forms on the Galapagos Islands could have come from originally, was Equador which was about 600 miles away. Differences in environment, food supply, temperature, etc. would put different pressures on animals on each of the various islands. Over time, natural selection would favor those best adapted for their various environments and after two million years, you have many different species that have evolved from common ancestors in Equador. The most famous of course, are Darwin's finches. Also famous are the different giant tortoises that vary by shells, size and habits, from island to island. Other famous animals include iguanas. One is extremely unique, the marine iguana, which is the only marine iguana in the entire world.

Explanation:
Number of protons = 28
Number of neutrons = 28
Mass of each proton = 1.007277 amu
Mass of 28 protons = 28 * 1.007277 amu = 28.203756 amu
Mass of each neutron = 1.008665 amu
Mass of 28 neutrons = 28 * 1.008665 amu = 28.24262 amu
mass defect of nickel-56 = 0.4667 amu
Binding energy = Δmc^2
Binding energy = 0.4667 *(3 * 10^8)^2
Binding energy =4.2 * 10^16 J
Binding energy per nucleon = 4.2 * 10^16 J/56
Binding energy per nucleon = 7.5 * 10^14 J
