Answer:

The biggest known human gene, is made up of about 2.4 million bases. The Human Genome Project also gave us more detailed information about chromosomes. It turns out that chromosome 1 contains the most genes, while the Y chromosome has the fewest.

Following the instructions in your lab manual, you have titrated a 25.00 mL sample of 0.0100 M KIO3 with a solution of Na2S2O3 o

vivado [14]

Answer:

For 1: The amount of potassium iodate that were titrated is $2.5\times 10^{-4}$ moles

For 2: The amount of sodium thiosulfate required is $1.25\times 10^{-4}$ moles

Explanation:

For 1:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Molarity of $KIO_3$ solution = 0.0100 M

Volume of solution = 25 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0100M=\frac{\text{Moles of }KIO_3\times 1000}{25}\\\\\text{Moles of }KIO_3=\frac{0.0100\times 25}{1000}=0.00025mol$

Hence, the amount of potassium iodate that were titrated is $2.5\times 10^{-4}$ moles

For 2:

The chemical equation for the reaction of potassium iodate and sodium thiosulfate follows:

$2KIO_3+Na_2S_2O_3\rightarrow K_2S_2O_3+2NaIO_3$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of potassium iodate reacts with 1 mole of sodium thiosulfate

So, 0.00025 moles of potassium iodate will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.00025=0.000125mol$ of sodium thiosulfate

Hence, the amount of sodium thiosulfate required is $1.25\times 10^{-4}$ moles

reativity of alkali metals increases down the group while reativity decreases down the group in helogens

BigorU [14]

Complete question is;

Chemical reactivity of alkali metals increases down the group while reactivity of halogens decreases down the group. Give reasons

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

Alkali metals exhibit reactivity due to their electropositivity. Now, for alkalis, their electro-positivity increases down their group. Since their reactivity increases with increase in electropositivity, it means their reactivity also increases down the group.

Whereas, the reactivity of halogens occurs as a result of their electronegativity. Now, electronegativity for halogens decreases down the group. Since their reactivity decreases with decrease in electronegativity, it means that their reactivity will also decrease down the group.

An ion has 14 neutrons, 10 electrons, and a mass number of 27 what element

nasty-shy [4]

The ion is Al³⁺

mass number - number of neutrons= atomic number

27 - 14 = 13

Aluminum has an atomic number of 13, thus we know this is the metal in question. Also, because the aluminum has only 10 electrons, (3 less than a neutral atom of aluminum would have), its charge must be 3+

The addition of NaOH to water would result in which of the following?

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

A decrease in [H3O+] and an increase in pH (option a)

Explanation:

Equilibrium of water is shown in this equation

2H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻

When you add NaOH, you are modifying [OH⁻]

NaOH → Na⁺ + OH⁻

In equilibrium of water, the [OH⁻] increases

2H₂O ⇄ ↓ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻ ↑

As the [OH⁻] increases, by Le Chatellier, the equilibrium tends to decrease [H₃O⁺].

If the [OH⁻] is higher, pH is also high so the solution of water and sodium hydroxide would be totally basic.
