POPULATION SIZE DECREASE
Population size can increase, but it can also decrease.
We know that amount of resources available affects the population size.
Natural disasters such as floods,fires,volcanic eruptions, can also affect the population size.
Sometimes the population size will decrease so much that it threatens the entire species.
<span>KCl<span>O3</span><span>(s)</span>+Δ→KCl<span>(s)</span>+<span>32</span><span>O2</span><span>(g)</span></span>
Approx. <span>3L</span> of dioxygen gas will be evolved.
Explanation:
We assume that the reaction as written proceeds quantitatively.
Moles of <span>KCl<span>O3</span><span>(s)</span></span> = <span><span>10.0⋅g</span><span>122.55⋅g⋅mo<span>l<span>−1</span></span></span></span> = <span>0.0816⋅mol</span>
And thus <span><span>32</span>×0.0816⋅mol</span> dioxygen are produced, i.e. <span>0.122⋅mol</span>.
At STP, an Ideal Gas occupies a volume of <span>22.4⋅L⋅mo<span>l<span>−1</span></span></span>.
And thus, volume of gas produced = <span>22.4⋅L⋅mo<span>l<span>−1</span></span>×0.0816⋅mol≅3L</span>
Note that this reaction would not work well without catalysis, typically <span>Mn<span>O2</span></span>.
Explanation:
4. limestone heat lime + carbon dioxide
The reactants in this expression above is limestone
The products of the reaction is carbon dioxide and lime
Reactant is the species that gives the product and it is usually found on the left hand side of the expression.
The product is the substance on the right hand side of the expression that forms through the experiment.
Heat is used to facilitate the reaction.
5. An exothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is given off.
An endothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is absorbed in the process.
An exothermic reaction is always warmer after the reaction whereas an endothermic reaction is colder at the end of the reaction.
6. Sodium salicylate is made from carbon dioxide and sodium phenoxide.
The reactants are:
Carbon dioxide and sodium phenoxide
The product is:
Sodium salicylate
Answer: Induced Fit
Explanation: The process wherein the enzymes change their shape is called as induced fit. It is the precision aligning of enzymes essential for catalytic activity which is caused by the binding of the substrate as enzymes possess active sites. Hence, as the substrate approaches the enzymes, the enzyme alters its shape.
You should take note that the question is about stability. A compound is stable if it does not easily react with other elements. Hence, its reactivity must be low. As you move down the group, reactivity decreases. So, the halide at the very bottom is the least reactive. It would then be logical that the most stable conjugate base is I⁻ and the least stable conjugate base is the most reactive which is F⁻.
