Answer:

please give me brainlist and follow

Explanation:

The key difference between Democritus and Dalton atomic theory is that the Democritus atomic theory is an ancient theory that scientists later refined and elaborated whereas Dalton atomic theory is a comparatively modern, scientific theory that we cannot discard due its important statements.

Which of the following statements correctly relates mutations and survival rates of plants?

Tasya [4]

Answer is: Mutations sometimes improve the chances of survival for a plant.
Mutations are very important because they change variability in populations and in that way enable evolutionary change.
There are three types of mutations:
1) good or advantageous mutations - improve the chances of survival for a plant.
2) bad or deleterious - decrease the chances of survival for a plant.
3) neutral - not affect he chances of survival for a plant.

A sample of oxygen gas occupies 3.60 liters at a pressure of 1.00 atm. If temperature is held constant, what will be the volume

Soloha48 [4]

Answer: The volume of the oxygen gas at a pressure of 2.50 atm will be 1.44 L

At constant temperature, the volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure it exerts, then

PV = c

Thus, if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, and if the pressure decreases, the volume increases.

It is not necessary to know the exact value of the constant c to be able to use this law since for a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature, it is satisfied that,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Where P₁ and P₂ as well as V₁ and V₂ correspond to pressures and volumes for two different states of the gas in question.

In this case the first oxygen gas state corresponds to P₁ = 1.00 atm and V₁ = 3.60 L while the second state would be P₂ = 2.50 atm and V₂ = y. Substituting in the previous equation,

1.00 atm x 3.60 L = 2.50 atm x y

We cleared y to find V₂,

V₂ = y = $\frac{1.00 atm x 3.60 L}{2.50 atm}$ = 1.44 L
