Answer:

When scientist find new species that may have to change classification systems in order to accommodate them. DNA sequencing has also let us find out more about evolutionary relationships. The more recent the common ancestor, the more closely related the two species are.

Answer asap? please

Ok heres what i know, one of the reasons why visible light will pass through glass but not through other materials is because the molecules in glass require more energy than average to push electrons from one level to another. Photons in visible light simply do not have enough energy. Only photons of light with shorter wavelengths, such as those that make up ultraviolet light, have the ability to change the electrons in glass. This is why ultraviolet light is unable to pass through glass. Lol im in 6th grade this is all i know ! :)

Given the ion C2O4-2, what species would you expect to form with each of the following ions?

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

A. K₂C₂O₄ Potassium oxalate

B. CuC₂O₄ Copper oxalate

C. Bi₂(C₂O₄)₃ Bismuth (III) oxalate

D. Pb(C₂O₄)₂ Lead (IV) oxalate

E. (NH₄)₂C₂O₄ Ammonium oxalate

F. HC₂O₄⁻ Acid oxalate

Explanation:

C₂O₄⁻² → oxalate anion

This is the conjugate base from the H₂C₂O₄ which is the oxalic acid. A weak dyprotic acid that can release 2 protons.

A. 2K⁺ + C₂O₄⁻² → K₂C₂O₄ Potassium oxalate

It can be formed by the neutralization of the acid with the base

H₂C₂O₄ + 2KOH → K₂C₂O₄ + 2H₂O

B. Cu²⁺ + C₂O₄⁻² ⇄ CuC₂O₄ ↓

This is a precipitate.

C. 2Bi³⁺ + 3C₂O₄⁻² ⇄ Bi₂(C₂O₄)₃ ↓

This is a precipitate.

D. Pb⁴⁺ + 2C₂O₄⁻² ⇄ Pb(C₂O₄)₂ ↓

This is a precipitate.

E. 2NH₄⁺ + C₂O₄⁻² ⇄ (NH₄)₂C₂O₄ ↓

This is a precipitate.

F. This is the conjugate strong base, for the weak acid

H⁺ + C₂O₄⁻² ⇄ HC₂O₄⁻

HC₂O₄⁻ + H₂O ⇄ C₂O₄⁻² + H₃O⁺ Ka

HC₂O₄⁻ + H₂O ⇄ H₂C₂O₄ + OH⁻ Kb

HC₂O₄⁻ is an amphoteric compound

Imagine that instead of balls, you were rolling positively charged ions of the same element).

Ghella [55]

The ion with a +3 charge would be deflected the most by the magnet because it has the strongest positive charge therefore it will be the one being the most repelled. and the ion that would be deflected the least would be the ion with a +1 charge because it has the least amount of charge so the magnet will still repel it but just not as much as it will repel the ion with a +3 charge.

hope that helps

Which reactions are single displacement reactions? 2NaBr + CaF2 → 2NaF + CaBr2 SnO2 + 2H2 → Sn + 2H2O 4Na + O2 → 2Na2O 2KClO3 →

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer : The correct options are, $SnO_2+2H_2\rightarrow Sn+2H_2O$ and $2Al+6HCl\rightarrow 2AlCl_3+3H_2$

Explanation :

Single displacement reaction : It is a type of chemical reaction in which the more reactive element displaces the less reactive element.

Option A reaction : $2NaBr+CaF_2\rightarrow 2NaF+CaBr_2$

It is an example of double displacement reaction because in this reaction a positive cation and a negative anion of the two reactants exchange their places to form two new products.

Option B reaction : $SnO_2+2H_2\rightarrow Sn+2H_2O$

It is an example of single displacement reaction.

Option C reaction : $4Na+O_2\rightarrow 2Na_2O$

It is an example of combination reaction because in this reaction two reactants react to give a single product.

Option D reaction : $2KClO_3\rightarrow 2KCl+3O_2$

It is an example of decomposition reaction because in this reaction a single reactant decomposes into two or more products.

Option E reaction : $2Al+6HCl\rightarrow 2AlCl_3+3H_2$

It is an example of single displacement reaction because in this reaction the most react element, aluminium displaces the less reactive element, hydrogen.

Hence, the options B and E are single displacement reactions.
