How a forensic scientist may match DNA of evidence to a particular crime?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Evgen [1.6K]3 years ago
7 0
Forensic scientists can compare DNA found at a crime scene (from blood or hair, for example) to DNA samples taken from suspects. If there is no match, they may be able to rule out that suspect. If there is a match, police will likely want to take a closer look.

The freezing point of a substance is -20°C. Its boiling point is 120°C.
Tasya [4]

Answer:

a. liquid

b. solid

c. gas, (should be at it's boiling point)

Explanation: If the normal melting point of a substance is below room temperature, the substance is a liquid at room temperature. Benzene melts at 6°C and boils at 80°C; it is a liquid at room temperature. If both the normal melting point and the normal boiling point are above room temperature, the substance is a solid.

What does this do to the electrons outside the nucleus in the gaseous atoms
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

As you know, ionization energy is the energy needed to remove one mole of electrons from one mole of atoms in the gaseous state

X

+

energy

→

X

+

+

e

−

Right from the start, you can tell that the harder it is to remove an electron from an atom, the higher the ionization energy will be.

Now, the periodic trends for ionization energy can be describe as follows

ionization energy increases as you move from left to right across a period

ionization energy decreases as you go down a group

As you mentioned, if you compare the first ionization energies for oxygen and chlorine using these two trends, you will get conflicting results.

If you follow the way ionization energy increases across period, chlorine would have a higher ionization energy, since it's closer to the noble gases.

On the other hand, if you go by how ionziation energy decreases from top to bottom in a group, oxygen would have higher ionization energy, since it's located in period 2, as compared with period 3 for chlorine.

As it turns out, the trend for groups overpowers the trend for periods. As aresult, oxygen will have a higher ionization energy than chlorine.

This happens because the smaller oxygen atom has its outermost electrons held tighter by the nucleus. By comparison, chlorine's outermost atoms are located further away from the nucleus.

Not only that, but they are screened from the charge of the nucleus better, since they're located on the third energy level.

Oxygen's outermost electrons are screened by

2

electrons, while chlorine's are screened by

8

electrons.

All these factors will make chlorine's outermost electrons a little easier to remove, which implies a smaller ionization energy than that of oxygen.v

Calculate the vapor pressure of a solution of 32.5 g of glycerol (C3H8O3) in 500.0 g of water at 25°C. The vapor pressure of wat
Luba_88 [7]

The vapor pressure is obtained as 23.47 torr.

<h3>What is the vapor pressure?</h3>

Given that; p = x1p°

p = vapor pressure of the solution

x1 = mole fraction of the solvent

p° = vapor pressure of the pure solvent

Δp = p°(1 - x1)

Δp =x2p°

Δp =  vapor pressure lowering

x2 = mole fraction of the  of the solute

Number of moles of  glycerol =  32.5 g/92 g/mol = 0.35 moles

Number of moles  of water = 500.0 g/18 g/mol = 27.8 moles

Total number of moles = 0.35 moles + 27.8 moles = 28.15 moles

Mole fraction of glycerol = 0.35 moles/28.15 moles = 0.012

Mole fraction of water = 27.8 moles/28.15 moles =0.99

Δp =  0.012 * 23.76 torr

Δp =  0.285 torr

p1 = p° - Δp

p1 = 23.76 torr -  0.285 torr

p1 = 23.47 torr
