Answer:

Difference Between DNA & RNA Viruses

A virus can self-replicate inside a host cell. ... The viruses that contain DNA as their genetic material are called the DNA viruses. RNA viruses, on the other hand, contain RNA as their genetic material. DNA viruses are mostly double-stranded while RNA viruses are single-stranded

Answer:

DNA viruses contain usually double‐stranded DNA (dsDNA) and rarely single‐stranded DNA (ssDNA). These viruses replicate using DNA‐dependent DNA polymerase. ... Compared to DNA virus genomes, which can encode up to hundreds of viral proteins, RNA viruses have smaller genomes that usually encode only a few proteins.

Answer:

1.047 M

Explanation:

The given reaction:

$6Fe^{2+}_{(aq)}+Cr_2O_7^{2-}_{(aq)}+14H^+_{(aq)}\rightarrow 6Fe^{3+}_{(aq)}+2Cr^{3+}_{(aq)}+7H_2O_{(aq)}$

For dichromate :

Molarity = 0.254 M

Volume = 15.8 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 15.8 ×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of dichromate :

$Moles=0.254 \times {15.8\times 10^{-3}}\ moles$

Moles of dichromate = 0.0040132 moles

1 mole of dichromate react with 6 moles of iron(II) solution

Thus,

0.0040132 moles of dichromate react with 6 × 0.0040132 moles of iron(II) solution

Moles of iron(II) solution = 0.02408 moles

Volume = 23 mL = 0.023 L

Considering:

$Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

<u>Molarity = 0.02408 / 0.023 = 1.047 M</u>

6 At STP, which element is a good conductor of electricity?(1) chlorine (3) silver

alexgriva [62]

For an object to conduct electricity it should have free or delocalised electrons that are free to pass the charge and hence take part in conducting electricity.
From the given choices
Chlorine is a halogen existing as a diatomic gas. Iodine too is a halogen and 2 Iodine atoms held together by covalent bond. Cl - Cl bonds and I-I bonds are covalent bonds. the outer electrons of Cl and I take part in covalent bonds therefore they are fixed and not free to move about. therefore no free electrons to conduct electricity.
Sulfur is a solid that too is held together by covalent bonds so it does not have free electrons to conduct electricity.

Silver is a metal and a general property of metals are their ability to conduct electricity.
metal structure are metal ions tightly packed together. when the metal atoms are tightly packed their valence electrons are removed and delocalised. Positively charged metal ions are embedded in a sea of delocalised electrons.
therefore there are delocalised electrons that can conduct electricity

answer is 3) silver

What volume (in liters) of a solution contains 0.14 mol of KCl?

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.078 \ L }}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find the volume of a solution given the moles of solute and molarity.

Molarity is a measure of concentration in moles per liter. It is calculated using the following formula:

$molarity= \frac{moles \ of \ solute}{liters \ of \ solution}$

We know there are 0.14 moles of potassium chloride (KCl), which is the solute. The molarity of the solution is 1.8 molar or 1.8 moles of potassium chloride per liter.

moles of solute = 0.14 mol KCl
molarity= 1.8 mol KCl/ L
liters of solution=x

Substitute these values/variables into the formula.

$1.8 \ mol \ KCl/ L = \frac { 0.14 \ mol \ KCl}{x}$

We are solving for x, so we must isolate the variable. First, cross multiply. Multiply the first numerator and second denominator, then the first denominator and second numerator.

$\frac {1.8 \ mol \ KCl/L}{1} = \frac{0.14 \ mol \ KCl}{x}$

$1.8 \ mol \ KCl/ L *x = 1*0.14 \ mol \ KCl$

$1.8 \ mol \ KCl/ L *x = 0.14 \ mol \ KCl$

Now x is being multiplied by 1.8 moles of potassium chloride per liter. The inverse operation of multiplication is division, so we divide both sides by 1.8 mol KCl/L.

$\frac {1.8 \ mol \ KCl/ L *x}{1.8 \ mol \ KCl/L} = \frac{0.14 \ mol \ KCl}{1.8 \ mol \ KCl/L}$

$x= \frac{0.14 \ mol \ KCl}{1.8 \ mol \ KCl/L}$

The units of moles of potassium chloride cancel.

$x= \frac{0.14 }{1.8 L}$

$x=0.07777777778 \ L$

The original measurements of moles and molarity have 2 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found, that is the thousandth place. The 7 in the ten-thousandth place tells us to round the 7 up to a 8.

$x \approx 0.078 \ L$

There are approximately <u>0.078 liters of solution.</u>
