Answer:

A. inheriting a specific gene

Explanation:

because sickle cell anemia is caused by a mutation in the gene responsible for making hemoglobin that makes blood red and enable the rbcs to carry o2 from lungs to the whole body.

but both mother and father must pass the defective gene to the child to be sick with sickle cell anemia otherwise the child will carry the gene but shows no sign of the anemia.

How many grams are in 11.9 moles of chromirum
faust18 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Method 1 proportion

1 mole of chromium is 52 grams

11.9 moles = x grams

1/11.9 = 52/x                    Cross multiply

x = 11.9 * 52

x = 618.8                         grams

Now I have used an approximate mass for Chromium. The answer you get here is expected to reflect the weigth given on your periodic table Use that to get your answer. You should give a number very close to mine. Round to 3 places as in 619.

Method Two  Formula

mols = given mass / molecular mass

11.9 = given mass /  51.9961          Multiply both sides by  51.9961

11.9 *51.9961  = given mass            

given mass = 618.75

given mass = 619

Determine the volume of water to be added to the nitric acid solution at a concentration of 8.61 mol / L to prepare 500 mL of th
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

398 mL

Explanation:

Using the equation for molarity,

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂ where C₁ = concentration before adding water = 8.61 mol/L and V₁ = volume before adding water, C₂ = concentration after adding water = 1.75 mol/L and V₂ = volume after adding water = 500 mL = 0.5 L

V₂ = V₁ + V' where V' = volume of water added.

So, From C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

V₁ =  C₂V₂/C₁

= 1.75 mol/L × 0.5 L ÷ 8.61 mol/L

= 0.875 mol/8.61 mol/L

= 0.102 L

So, V₂ = V₁ + V'

0.5 L = 0.102 L + V'

V' = 0.5 L - 0.102 L

= 0.398 L

= 398 mL

So, we need to add 398 mL of water to the nitric solution.

How many molecules in 9.18 moles of C11H12O22
Setler [38]

Answer:

55.3 × 10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of C₁₁H₁₂O₂₂ = 9.18 mol

Number of molecules = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

For given data:

9.18 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules /1 mol

55.3 × 10²³ molecules
