Mesosaurus lived in freshwater lakes and ponds. Elongated and slim, it measured about 3.3 feet long. The skull and tail were both long and narrow, and the animal probably undulated through the water as it fed on small crustaceans and other prey with its jaws, which were full of long, thin, pointed teeth.
All animals can be dangerous and they would fight for their family. (This might be wrong)
DNA is one and Grow and Develop i think i could be wong let me know i can read up on it some more
The reaction is
CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O (l) -----> Ca(OH)₂ (s) + C₂H₂ (g)
As we have data of gas ethyne (or acetylene), C₂H₂
We can calculate the moles of acetylene and from this we can estimate the mass of calcium carbide taken
the moles of acetylene will be calculated using ideal gas equation
PV =nRT
R = gas constant = 0.0821 Latm/molK
T = 385 K
V = volume = 550 L
P = Pressure = 1.25 atm
n = moles = ?
n = PV /RT = 1.25 X 550 / 0.0821 X 385 = 21.75 mol
As per balanced equation these moles of acetylene will be obtained from same moles of calcium carbide
moles of calcium carbide = 21.75mol
molar mass of CaC₂ = 40 + 24 = 64
mass of CaC₂ = moles X molar mass = 21.75 X 64 = 1392g
