Answer:

The dependent variable is the number of clams developing from fertilized eggs.

The independent variable is the water temperature

The optimum temperature for clam development is 30 degrees centigrade.

Explanation:

The graph of the number of clams developing from fertilized eggs and water temperature is attached to this answer.

The independent variable is being manipulated in an experiment. As it changes, it produces a corresponding change in the dependent variable.

Here, the water temperature is the independent variable. As it changes, the number of clams developing from fertilized eggs (dependent variable) also changes alongside.

The optimum temperature is the temperature at which the greatest number of clams developing from fertilized eggs is produced. We can see from the graph that this temperature is 30 degrees centigrade.

In the article, Invasion of the Periodical Cicadas, why do scienctists believe that cicadas only reproduce every 13 or 17 years?
frez [133]

Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. However, I assumed you are referring to the article found on the Scientific American website.

Explanation:

<em>Remember,</em> according to that article we are told that scientists notice that these insects have a long nymphal (immature form before becoming adults) stage, one that can last up to 13 to 17 years on the ground before they leave the ground looking for mating partners.

Because it is only after mating occurs at this point that their eggs are laid, that is why scientists believe that cicadas only reproduce every 13 or 17 years.

In a titration of 47.41 mL of 0.3764 M ammonia with 0.3838 M aqueous nitric acid, what is the pH of the solution when 47.41 mL +
Volgvan

<u>Answer:</u> The pH of the solution is 1.136

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the moles from molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

  • <u>For ammonia:</u>

Molarity of ammonia = 0.3764 M

Volume of ammonia = 47.41 mL = 0.04741 L   (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.3764mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of ammonia}}{0.04741L}\\\\\text{Moles of ammonia}=0.01784mol

  • <u>For nitric acid:</u>

Molarity of nitric acid = 0.3838 M

Volume of ammonia = (47.41 + 10.00) mL = 57.41 mL= 0.05741 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.3838mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of nitric acid}}{0.05741L}\\\\\text{Moles of nitric acid}=0.02203mol

After the completion of reaction, amount of nitric acid remained = 0.022 - 0.0178 = 0.0042 mol

For the reaction of ammonia with nitric acid, the equation follows:

                       NH_3+HNO_3\rightarrow NH_4NO_3

At t=0             0.0178   0.022

Completion        0     0.0042        0.0178

As, the solution of the reaction is made from strong acid which is nitric acid and the conjugate acid of weak base which is ammonia. So, the pH of the reaction will be based totally on the concentration of nitric acid.

To calculate the pH of the reaction, we use the equation:

pH=-\log[H^+]

where,

[H^+]=\frac{0.0042mol}{0.05741L}=0.0731M

Putting values in above equation, we get:

pH=-\log(0.0731)\\\\pH=1.136

Hence, the pH of the solution is 1.136
