An insecticide kills many insects, but a few survive. Because of natural selection, which of the following is most likely to hap

pen
1- Eventually the survivors will become resistant to insecticide

2- the survivors will reproduce, and the offspring will be resistant to the insecticide

3- the survivors will reproduce, but the offspring will be killed by another application of the insecticide

4- the survivors will continue to survive for many years beyond their normal lifespan

Answer:

2

Explanation:

the ones that survived are the ones that had the favorable trait, so they'll be able to reproduce and their offsprings are likely to receive that trait as well.

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

a. 7278 K

b. 4.542 × 10⁻³¹

Explanation:

a.

Let´s consider the following reaction.

N₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2 NO(g)

The reaction is spontaneous when:

ΔG° < 0  [1]

Let's consider a second relation:

ΔG° = ΔH° - T × ΔS° [2]

Combining [1] and [2],

ΔH° - T × ΔS° < 0

ΔH° < T × ΔS°

T > ΔH°/ΔS°

T > (180.5 × 10³ J/mol)/(24.80 J/mol.K)

T >  7278 K

b.

First, we will calculate ΔG° at 25°C + 273.15 = 298 K

ΔG° = ΔH° - T × ΔS°

ΔG° = 180.5 kJ/mol - 298 K × 24.80 × 10⁻³ kJ/mol.K

ΔG° = 173.1 kJ/mol

We can calculate the equilibrium constant using the following expression.

ΔG° = - R × T × lnK

lnK = - ΔG° / R × T

lnK = - 173.1 × 10³ J/mol / (8.314 J/mol.K) × 298 K

K = 4.542 × 10⁻³¹

Batteries work by letting charged ions flow through an electrolyte solution.
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Batteries work by letting charged ions flow through an electrolyte solution.

A battery is a device that consists of one or more electrochemical cells that can convert stored chemical energy into electrical current. Each cell consists of a positive electrode, or anode, a negative electrode, or cathode, and electrolytes that allow ions to move between the electrodes, allowing current to flow out of the battery to carry out its function.

Explanation:

Its operation is essentially based on a reversible chemical process called reduction-oxidation, in which one of the components is oxidized and the other is reduced; that is, a process whose components are neither consumed nor lost, but merely change their oxidation state, and which in turn can return to their original state under the right circumstances.
