A genetic mutation is always observable in an organism physical appearance True or false

Chemistry
1 answer:
ale4655 [162]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

false

Explanation:

false, only a small percentage of mutations cause genetic disorders—most have no impact on health or development. For example, some mutations alter a gene's DNA sequence but do not change the function of the protein made by the gene.

Does the identity of gas matter when predicting its behavior why or why not?
just olya [345]

Answer: The gas phase is unique among the three states of matter in that there are some simple models we can use to predict the physical behavior of all gases—independent of their identities. We cannot do this for the solid and liquid states. ... Gas particles do not experience any force of attraction or repulsion with each other.

Niven wants to calculate the mass of mgo that is produced by burning of 28.0g of mg. What is the first step in nivens calculatio
babymother [125]

Answer: -

The experiment Niven is doing is burning of Mg.

The first step would be finding the molar mass of MgO

Atomic mass of Mg = 24 g

Atomic mass of Oxygen = 16 g

Molar mass of MgO = 24 x 1 + 16 x 1 = 40 g

The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is

2 Mg + O2 -- > 2MgO

From the balanced equation we see that

2 Mg gives 2 MgO

2 x24 g of Mg O gives 2 x 40 g of MgO.

28g of MgO gives \frac{2 x 40 gram x 28 gram }{2 x 24 gram}

= 46.66 g of MgO.

Which of the following statements is incorrect? A. Molecular mass is expressed in atomic mass units. B. Formula mass compares th
n200080 [17]

Answer:

  • The incorrect statement is the choice <em>C. Atomic mass has units of grams per atom.</em>

Explanation:

<u>1) Choice A.</u><em><u> Molecular mass is expressed in atomic mass units</u></em><u>.</u>

Correct. Atomic mass units (a.m.u) is the standard unit used to express the mass of the atoms and the molecules.

Since, one atom, molecule, or formula unit is a tiny amount of material, it has a ver, very low mass, and the unit mass of a molecule is referred to one mole (6.022 × 10²³ units).

<u>2) Choice B. </u><em><u>Formula mass compares the mass of one formula unit of a substance to the mass of one atom of carbon-12</u></em><u>.</u>

Correct. The masses of atoms and compounds are referred to a standard. Such standard is the carbon-12 atom. This is, the cabon-12 atom was selected as the standard and its exact mass is 12 a.m.u.

<u>3)  Choice C. </u><em><u>Atomic mass has units of grams per atom.</u></em><u> </u>

Incorrect. Atomic mass is the mass of the atoms, but, since, the mass of one atom is so small, the atomic mass is referred to one mole. Hence, the atomic mass has units of grams per mole.

<u>4) Choice D. </u><em><u>Both molecular mass and formula mass use carbon-12 as a reference standard.</u></em>

Correct. As stated when explaining the option B, the mass of atoms, molecules, and formula units are referred to carbon-12 standard.

<u>5) Choice E. S</u><em><u>odium chloride, an ionic compound, is said to have a formula weight, but not a molecular weight.</u></em>

Correct. The reason is that ionic compounds form large structures (crystals) and, since there is not such thing as one molecule of them, they are said to have formula weight (or mass) but not a molecular weight.

The name molecules is reserved for covalent compounds, where you can formally identify molecules. E.g. Water is a molecular compound, and each molecule has molecular formula H₂O, whose mass is the molecular mass.

Is the atom indicated with an arrow nucleophilic, electrophilic, acidic, more than one of these choices, or none of these choice
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

c) acidic

Explanation:

pKa is a value which describes the acidity of a solution. The solution is pKa ≤ 25 which means that the solution is more acidic. The lower value of pKa tells us that the solution is more acidic but when the pKa value of solution increases the acidity of the solution is also decreases. Due to lower value of pKa, the acid in the solution is fully dissociates in water.-5 to 50 is the range of the value of pKa for different solutions.
