They all have heterozygous Bb genes and brown is the dominant allele, and therefore all of the offspring are brown instead of white

Because The white gene is the recessive gene and the brown gene is the dominant gene hence all the offspring being brown instead of white :)

Compared to carbon dioxide, oxygen has a relatively _____ solubility coefficient and so requires a _____ partial pressure gradie

Andrej [43]

Oxygen has a relatively low solubility coefficient and therefore requires a steep (high) partial pressure gradient to help diffuse the gas into the blood.

Solubility is described as the limiting amount of an element that can dissolve in any amount of solvent at a set temperature. Since oxygen has a low coefficient of this, it requires the help of a higher partial pressure gradient to diffuse properly into the bloodstream.

The valences of metal x,y and z are 1,2 and 3 respectively. What are the formulae of their;a) hydroxides, b) sulphates, c) hydro

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

See answer below

Explanation:

AS we know that the valence for those metals X, Y, and Z are 1, 2 and 3, we can determine the formula of each compound.

1. Hydroxides.

An hydroxide is formed when an oxyde of a metal reacts with water. When this happens, the general molecular formula is:

Meₐ(OH)ₙ

Where:

a: valence or charge of the hydroxide (Which is -1)

n: valence of the metal.

Following this, the formula for X, Y and Z would be:

XOH

Y(OH)₂

Z(OH)₃

2. Sulphates

Sulphates follow a similar rule of hydroxide in the general molecular formula, but instead of having a charge of -1, it has a charge of -2 so:

Mₐ(SO₄)ₙ

So, following the rule:

X₂SO₄

Y₂(SO₄)₂ ------> YSO₄

Z₂(SO₄)₃

3. Hydrogens

Following the same rule as the previous, hydrogens works with a charge of -1, so:

MₐHₙ

Then:

YH₂

ZH₃

4. Carbonates.

This follows the same rule as sulphates, with the same charge so:

Mₐ(CO₃)ₙ

Then:

X₂CO₃

YCO₃

Z₂(CO₃)₃

5. Nitrates

Follow the same rule as the hydroxides, with the same charge of -1.

Mₐ(NO₃)ₙ

Then:

XNO₃

Y(NO₃)₂

Z(NO₃)₂

6. Phosphates

In the case of phosphates, these have a charge of -3 so:

Mₐ(PO₄)ₙ

Then:

X₃PO₄

Y₃(PO₄)₂

Z₃(PO₄)₃ ----> ZPO₄

A substance has a volume of 10.0 cm³ and a mass of 89 grams. What is its density?

lara [203]

Answer:

8.9 g / cm^3

Explanation:

Density = mass / volume

We are given volume which is 10.0cm^3 (cm^3 is just fancy way of saying ml), and mass of 89 gram. Just plug them in respective spots.

Density = 89 / 10.0 = 8.9 g / cm^3
