Ilia_Sergeevich [38]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

A gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Genes are made up of DNA. Every person has two copies of each gene, one inherited from each parent. Most genes are the same in all people, but a small number of genes (less than 1 percent of the total) are slightly different between people. These small differences contribute to each person’s unique physical features.

A slice of pizza has 500 kcal. If we could burn the pizza and use all the heat to warm a 50-L container of cold water, what woul
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

10°C  

Explanation:

Heat gain by water = Heat lost by the slice of pizza

Thus,    

m_{water}\times C_{water}\times \Delta T=Q

<u>For water:  </u>

Volume = 50.0 L

Density of water= 1 kg/L  

So, mass of the water:  

Mass\ of\ water=Density \times {Volume\ of\ water}  

Mass\ of\ water=1 kg/L \times {50.0\ L}  

Mass of water  = 50 kg

Specific heat of water = 1 kcal/kg°C  

ΔT = ?

For slice of pizza:  

Q = 500 kcal

So,

50\times 1\times \Delta T=500  

ΔT = 10°C  

Increase in temperature = 10°C

If 25.3 grams of mercury(II) oxide react to form 23.4 grams of mercury, how many grams of oxygen must simultaneously be formed?
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer : The mass of oxygen formed must be 3.8 grams.

Explanation :

Law of conservation of mass : It states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

This also means that total mass on the reactant side must be equal to the total mass on the product side.

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

2HgO\rightarrow 2Hg+O_2

According to the law of conservation of mass,

Total mass of reactant side = Total mass of product side

Total mass of 2HgO = Total mass of 2Hg+O_2

As we are given :

The mass of HgO = 25.3 grams

The mass of Hg = 23.4 grams

So,

2\times 25.3g=2\times 23.4g+\text{Mass of }O_2

50.6g=46.8g+\text{Mass of }O_2

\text{Mass of }O_2=3.8g

Therefore, the mass of oxygen formed must be 3.8 grams.

IF ANSWER I WILL GIVE BRAINLESS
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Answer 9 - 100 joules energy was at the producer level

Answer 10 - Remaining energy is used in metabolism

Explanation:

Answer 9

The energy at each trophic level is only 10% of the energy at its previous trophic level.

The energy at producer level is X

10 % of X = 10 Joules

\frac{10}{100} * X = 10\\X = 100Joules

Answer 10

Because the remaining 90% energy is utilized by the producer for its metabolism
