Answer: 2.23 is the difference.

Explanation: Sodium has an electronegativity of 0.93 and Chlorine has an electronegativity of 3.16, so when Sodium and Chlorine form an ionic bond, in which the chlorine takes an electron away from sodium, forming the sodium cation, Na+, and the chloride anion, Cl-.

If one or more nucleotide pairs are deleted from a DNA strand, this is known as a frameshift mutation

<h3>Define Frameshift Mutation</h3>

Insertions or deletions in the genome that are not multiples of three nucleotides are referred to as frameshift mutations. They are a particular class of insertion-deletion (indel) alterations that are present in polypeptides' coding sequences. Here, there are no multiples of three in the number of nucleotides that are added to or subtracted from the coding sequence. They may result from really basic alterations like the insertion or deletion of a single nucleotide.

<h3>Frameshift mutations' effects</h3>

One of the most harmful modifications to a protein's coding sequence is a frameshift mutation. They are quite prone to produce non-functional proteins that frequently interfere with a cell's metabolic processes and result in significant alterations to polypeptide length and chemical makeup. Frameshift mutations can cause the mRNA to stop translating too soon and create an extended polypeptide.

What mass of butane in grams is necessary to produce 1.5×103 kj of heat what mass of co2 is produced?

kari74 [83]

The heat of reaction (i.e. combustion) of butane ( $C_{4} H_{10}$ ) when reacted with oxygen ( $O_{2}$ )  is -2658 kJ/mol butane, and the chemical reaction is given by:

$C_{4} H_{10}$ + $\frac{13}{2} O_{2}$ ---> $4 CO_{2}$ + $5 H_{2}O$

The mass of butane required in the reaction is based on the heat produced by the reaction, which is given to be -1,500 kJ. The minus sign is added because the reaction releases heat (exothermic), which means that the products are in a "lower energy state" than the reactants.

Dividing this with the heat of reaction per mole of butane reacted would give the number of moles butane required. Then, multiplying the answer with the molar mass of butane which is 58 grams/mole, will give the mass of butane required.

Moles of butane = [(-1,500 kJ)/(-2658 kJ/mol butane)]
Moles of butane = 0.5643 moles butane

Mass of butane  = 0.5643 moles butane * 58 grams/mol butane
Mass of butane = 32.73 grams butane

The mass of carbon dioxide ( $CO_{2}$ ) can be determined by multiplying the moles of butane ( $C_{4} H_{10}$ ) with the mole ratio of ( $CO_{2}$ ) produced to the ( $C_{4} H_{10}$ ) reacted, and then with the molar mass of ( $CO_{2}$ ), which is 44 grams/mole.

Mass of carbon dioxide produced
= 0.5643 moles butane * [4 moles $CO_{2}$ / 1 mole $C_{4} H_{10}$ ] * 44 grams/mole $CO_{2}$

Mass of carbon dioxide produced
= 99.32 grams $CO_{2}$

Thus, the mass of butane required is 32.73 grams, and the mass of carbon dioxide produced from the reaction of this amount of butane is 99.32 grams.

Which compound can act as both a Bronsted-Lowry acid and a Bronsted-Lowry base?

Dvinal [7]

The answer is A. Water

Bronsted-Lowry base compounds are those that can accept protons

Bronsted-Lowry Acid Compounds are those that can recieve one

Water / H2O is an Amphoteric compund which mean that its molecul can act as a Base and Acid compound, so the answer is A.

Give the number of protons, neutrons and electrons in 99Tc

miss Akunina [59]

Explanation:

Tc - 99 is technetium 99.

It is a radioactive element that decays spontaneously. It has a half-life of 211,000 years and decays to stable ruthenium.

On the periodic table, it has an atomic number of 43;

Mass number = 99

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons in atom

Number of protons in Tc is 43

electron is 43

Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

Number of neutrons = mass number - number of protons = 99-43 = 56
