Answer:

So... yes :)

Explanation:

Viruses are nonliving agents that depend on the host cell that they are infecting to reproduce. They are bundles of genetic material enclosed in a capsid (some viruses have an additional layer called the viral envelop). Viruses can only thrive and replicate inside the environment of a living cell of other organisms. Viruses adapt to the environment (the cell) they are in by infecting the entire cell. Viruses can infect other nearby cells by infecting its genetic code (either DNA or RNA) and spread. Viruses develop and spread by attaching its protein tail to a receptor site on the host cell wall and injecting its genetic material into the host cell. The virus can then take over the cell and spread to infect other cells in a similar way. This is how viruses replicate. Outside of the host cell, most viruses are inert.

Yes, I do think it’s possible because if viruses spread, (like corona), then it could definitley evolve into something worse than a sickness.

.Which best describes the structure of 2-butene?

yan [13]

Answer:

Explanation:

The 2 - butene is an alkene with the formula C4H8, which can be used as the polybutene monomer or co-polymer. It is a compressed liquefied gas colorless, highly flammable characteristic odor. Prolonged exposure to this gas can cause frostbite causing a lowering of consciousness. Its formula is C4H8 and it is made up of 4 carbon atoms.

The best structure that describes 2-butene is that of Option A.

When 6.0 mol Al react with 13 mol HCl, what is the limiting reactant, and how many moles of H2 can be formed? 2Al + 6HCl → 2AlCl

4vir4ik [10]

Well, we need to find the ratio of Al to the other reactant.

Al:HCl = 1:3

--> this means that for every 1 Al used, you have to use 3 HCl.

6*3 = 18 moles of HCl needed to fully react with 6 moles of Al. Since 13<18, HCL is the limiting reactant.

The ratio of HCl:AlCl = 3:1

13/3 = 4.3333...

The final answer is HCl is the limiting reactant with 4.3 moles of AlCl3 able to be produced.

Hope this helps!!! :)

Explain why the standard enthalpy of formation () for Cl2 (g) is zero, but its standard entropy is larger than zero.

Galina-37 [17]

The standard enthalpy of formation for chlorine is zero but the standard entropy is larger than 0 because it is the elemental state of chlorine.

The standard enthalpy of formation for chlorine is zero because cl2 is the elemental state of chlorine and it does not require any energy for the formation of the standard state of chlorine.

The entropy of any system cannot be negative. It can only be positive or zero.

The entropy of a system will become zero only at a absolute zero temperature.

That's why the entropy of chlorine in elemental state is more than zero because absolutely zero temperature can't be obtained.

What is the molarity of a 2.0L solution that was made up with 4.0 moles of NaCl?

Finger [1]

Answer:

[NaCl]: 2M

Explanation:

This solution is made of NaCl therefore:

Our solute is NaCl

Moles of solute: 4

Our solution's volume is 2L

Molarity are the moles of solute contained in 1L of solution (mol/L)

[NaCl]: 4 mol /2L = 2M

We can also make a rule of three:

In 2 L we have 4 moles of solute

So, In 1 L we must have (1 . 4) /2 = 2 M
