Answer:

Tough outer shell

Explanation:

Three types of space suits based on their purpose are IVA (Intravehicular activity), EVA (extravehicular activity), and IEVA (intra/extravehicular activity)

Space suits have an outer layer known as the Integrated Thermal Micrometeoroid Garment also known as the TMG or ITMG

The functions of the TMG includes the provision of an insulation medium to the wearer of the suit thereby preventing loss of heat and keeping the wearer warm, protect the wearer from solar radiation which are harmful as well as from Micrometeoroid and debris orbiting in space known as MMOD

The outermost layer of the EMU TMG suits is white Ortho-Fabric that consists of Nomex, Kevlar and Gore-Tex, making it fire resistant, very strong and very tough, and water proof as well as breathable.

Describe the main differences beA human cell has 46 chromosomes. At the end of mitosis, there are two cells, each with 46 chromo
liberstina [14]

Answer:

At the end of meiosis, there are four cells, each with 23 chromosomes, for a total of 92 chromosomes split between the four cells.

Explanation:

During meiosis, a diploid cell  (46 chromosomes) replicates its DNA (making 92 chromosomes) then undergoes two cell divisions to generate four haploid cells (23 chromosomes).

These haploid cells are the gametes which, during fertilization, fuse to become a zygote with 46 chromosomes.

Calculate the percent yield when 500 grams of carbon dioxide react with an excess of water to produce 640 grams of carbonic acid
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Percent yield =  90.5%

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of carbon dioxide = 500 g

Mass of water = excess

Actual yield of carbonic acid = 640 g

Percent yield = ?

Solution:

Balanced chemical equation:

CO₂ + H₂O  → H₂CO₃

Number of moles of carbon dioxide

Number of moles  = Mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 500 g/ 44 g/mol

Number of moles = 11.4 mol

Now we will compare the moles of H₂CO₃ with CO₂.

                              CO₂          :              H₂CO₃

                                 1             :                  1

                               11.4           :                11.4

Mass of carbonic acid:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 11.4 mol × 62.03 g/mol

Mass = 707.14 g

Percent yield:

Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield × 100

Percent yield =  640 g/ 707.14 g × 100

Percent yield =  90.5%

Which represents the correct equilibrium constant expression for the reaction below? Cu(s)+2Ag+(aq)<->Cu2+(aq)+2Ag(s)
balu736 [363]
K(eq) = concentration of products/concentration of reactant         = [Cu+2] / [Ag+]^2 
Activity of pure solid and liquid is taken as 1.
Hence last option is correct.
Hope this helps, have a great day ahead!
I hope this helps you alot

Calculate the theoretical yield of ammonia produced by the reaction of 100 g of H2 gas and 200g of N2 gas? 3H2(g) + N2(g)-----&g
Alex787 [66]
Moles of Hydrogen present: 100 / 2 = 50 moles

Moles of Nitrogen present: 200 / 28 = 7.14 moles

Hydrogen required by given amount of nitrogen = 7.14 x 3 = 21.42 moles

Hydrogen is excess so we will calculate the Ammonia produced using Nitrogen.

Molar ratio of Nitrogen : Ammonia = 1 : 2

Moles of ammonia = 7.14 x 2 = 14.28 moles
