Chemistry
1 answer:
ella [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A mutation is a heritable change in the genetic material of an individual. The change can be large or small. Large changes involve the loss, addition, duplication, or rearrangement of whole chromosomes or chromosome segments. Mutations can affect an organism by changing its physical characteristics (or phenotype) or it can impact the way DNA codes the genetic information (genotype). When mutations occur they can cause termination (death) of an organism or they can be partially lethal.

The gas in an aerosol can is at a pressure of 3.16 atm at 32.2°C. What would the gas pressure in the can be at 22.9°C?
olasank [31]

Answer:

The pressure of the gas would be 3.06 atm

Explanation:

Amonton's law states that the pressure is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of a gas under constant volume. The equation is:

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

<em>Where P1 is the initial pressure = 3.16atm</em>

<em>T1 is initial absolute temperature = 273.15 + 32.2°C = 305.35K</em>

<em>P2 is our incognite</em>

<em>And T2 is = 273.15 + 22.9°C = 296.05K</em>

<em />

Replacing:

3.16atm / 305.35K = P2 / 296.05K

3.06 atm = P2

<h3>The pressure of the gas would be 3.06 atm</h3>

Latent heat is used to: 1. form chemical bonds. 2. change molecular structure. 3. change states of matter. 4. change the tempera
likoan [24]

Answer : The correct option is, (3) change states of matter.

Explanation :

Latent heat : It is defined as the heat required to convert the solid into liquid or vapor and a liquid into a vapor without changing the temperature.

There are two types of latent heat.

(1) Latent heat of fusion

(2) Latent heat of vaporization

Latent heat of fusion : It is defined as the amount of heat energy released or absorbed when the solid converted to liquid at atmospheric pressure at its melting point.

Latent heat of vaporization : It is defined as the amount of heat energy released or absorbed when the liquid converted to vapor at atmospheric pressure at its boiling point.

Hence, latent heat is used to change states of matter.

What example of mixture could be seperated using two or more techniques? Explain your answer
STatiana [176]
You can take two liquids of different densities (how much mass is in a given volume) and pour them into a funnel. An example is oil and water. When the mixture settles, the denser liquid will be at the bottom, and drips through the funnel first. This is a separation that you can just let occur naturally.
