Albino trees exist in nature, but they’re rare. These trees contain a gene mutation that causes them to lack chlorophyll, so the

ir leaves are white. In California, albino redwood trees are parasites. They survive off the energy from nearby redwood trees. Why do you think they need to use energy from other trees to survive?

Answer:

They need to use energy from other tress to survive so that they can do basic functions, like absorbing nutrients from the ground, and growing back leaves. They don't have chlorophyll, so they need that energy to do the functions I mentioned above.

Explanation: Hope this helps!

Answer:

Trees need chlorophyll to make energy. Because albino trees don’t have chlorophyll, they can’t create their own energy. So, they must take energy from other trees to survive.

How many sulfur atoms are present in 25.6 g of Al2(S2O3)3
IgorC [24]

Given the mass of Al_{2}(S_{2}O_{3})_{3}=25.6 g

The molar mass of Al_{2}(S_{2}O_{3})_{3}=390.35g/mol

Converting mass of Al_{2}(S_{2}O_{3})_{3}to moles:

25.6 g Al_{2}(S_{2}O_{3})_{3}*\frac{1molAl_{2}(S_{2}O_{3}}{390.35 gAl_{2}(S_{2}O_{3}} =0.0656molAl_{2}(S_{2}O_{3}

Converting mol Al_{2}(S_{2}O_{3})_{3}to mol S:

0.0656mol Al_{2}(S_{2}O_{3})_{3}*\frac{6molS}{1mol Al_{2}(S_{2}O_{3})_{3}}=0.3936 molS

Converting mol S to atoms of S using Avogadro's number:

1 mol = 6.022*10^{23}atoms

0.3936mol S *\frac{6.022*10^{23}atoms S}{1 mol S}=2.37*10^{23} S atoms

A variation of the acetamidomalonate synthesis can be used to synthesize serine. The process involves the following steps: Ethox
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

See detailed mechanism in the image attached

Explanation:

The mechanism shown in detail below is the synthesis of serine in steps.

The first step is the attack of the ethoxide ion base on the diethyl acetamidomalonate substrate giving the enolate and formaldehyde.

The second step is the protonation of the oxyanion from (1) above to form an alcohol as shown.

Acid hydrolysis of the alcohol formed in (3) above yields a tetrahedral intermediate, a dicarboxyamino alcohol.

Decarboxylation of this dicarboxyamino alcohol yields serine, the final product as shown in the image attached.

How are solubility and temperature generally related in a system consisting of a solid solute and a liquid solvent?
Nesterboy [21]

Solubility and temperatures are directly related. The higher the temperature of the solvent, the higher the solubility of the solute in the solvent.

Dissolving a solute in a solvent is an endothermic process hence providing heat favors the  process. Higher temperatures cause the molecules of the solvent to have high kinetic energy hence bombard each other and with that of the solute with high frequency. This then ensures fast diffusion of the solute particles in the solvent.

Consider a certain type of nucleus that has a half-life of 32 min. calculate the percent of original sample of nuclides remainin
Irina18 [472]
t1/2 = ln 2 / λ = 0.693 / λ
Where t1/2 is the half life of the element and λ is decay constant.

32 = 0.693 / λ 
λ   = 0.693 / 32          (1) 

Nt = Nο eΛ(-λt)          (2)

Where Nt is atoms at t time, λ is decay constant and t is the time taken.
t = 1.9 hours = 1.9 x 60 min

From (1) and (2),


Nt = Nο e⁻Λ(0.693/32)*1.9*60
Nt =  0.085Nο 

Percentage = (Nt/Nο) x 100%
                   = (0.085Nο/Nο) x 100%
                   = 8.5%

Hence, Percentage of remaining atoms with the original sample is 8.5%
