Answer:

Charles Darwin, in full Charles Robert Darwin, (born February 12, 1809, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England—died April 19, 1882, Downe, Kent), English naturalist whose scientific theory of evolution by natural selection became the foundation of modern evolutionary studies.

Charles Darwin's theory of evolution states that evolution happens by natural selection. Individuals in a species show variation in physical characteristics. ... As a consequence those individuals most suited to their environment survive and, given enough time, the species will gradually evolve.

if the percent by volume is 2% and the volume of solution is 250 mL what is the volume of solute and solution

Liula [17]

Answer:

Solute = 5 mL; solution = 250 mL

Explanation:

The formula for percent by volume is

$\text{Percent by volume} = \dfrac{\text{Volume of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution}}\times 100 \, \%$

If you have 250 mL of a solution that is 2 % v/v,

$\begin{array}{rcl}2 \, \% & = & \dfrac{\text{Volume of solute}}{\text{250 mL}}\times 100 \, \%\\\\2 \times \text{ 250 mL} & = & \text{Volume of solute} \times 100\\\text{Volume of solute} & = & \dfrac{2 \times 250\text{ mL}}{100}\\\\ & = & \textbf{5 mL}\\\end{array}$

If there is no change of volume on mixing,

Volume of solution = 250 mL

-Volume of solute = 5

Volume of solvent = 245 mL

Select whether the statement is for Speed, Velocity, or Acceleration.

Vesna [10]

Answer:

I think that the statement is relative to speed because it is saying km per second.

In two or more complete sentences explain how to balance the chemical equation and classify its reaction type.

mihalych1998 [28]

Hey there!

C₅H₅ + Fe → Fe(C₅H₅)₂

Put a coefficient of 2 in front of C₅H₅ on the left side because there is a subscript of 2 after C₅H₅ in parenthesis on the right.

2C₅H₅ + Fe → Fe(C₅H₅)₂

Fe (iron) is already balanced since there is one on each side, so we don't need to change anything for that.

This is a synthesis reaction because two reactants, C₅H₅ and Fe, are yielding a single product, Fe(C₅H₅)₂.

Hope this helps!

a compound has a molar mass of 129 g/mol if its empirical formula is C2H5N then what is the molecular formula

Elena-2011 [213]

Given :

A compound has a molar mass of 129 g/mol .

Empirical formula of compound is C₂H₅N .

To Find :

The molecular formula of the compound.

Solution :

Empirical mass of compound :

$M_e = ( 2 \times 12 ) + ( 5 \times 1 ) + ( 1 \times 14 )\\\\M_e = 43\ gram/mol$

Now, n-factor is :

$n = \dfrac{M}{M_e}\\\\n = \dfrac{129}{43}\\\\n = 3$

Multiplying each atom in the formula by 3 , we get :

Molecular Formula, C₆H₁₅N₃
