Hi there so i need one more brainliest mark so if i get it right can i get brainliest please  :)

A gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Genes are made up of DNA. Some genes act as instructions to make molecules called proteins. However, many genes do not code for proteins. In humans, genes vary in size from a few hundred DNA bases to more than 2 million bases

Answer: The partial pressure of oxygen is 187 torr.

Explanation:

According to Raoult's law, the partial pressure of a component at a given temperature is equal to the mole fraction of that component multiplied by the total pressure.

p_1=x_1p_{total}  

where, x = mole fraction  

p_{total} = total pressure  

x_{oxygen}=\frac{\text {moles of oxygen}}{\text {total moles}},  

x_{oxygen}=\frac{3.0}{12.33}=0.243,  

p_{oxygen}=0.243\times 770torr=187torr  

Thus the partial pressure of oxygen is 187 torr.

29. Ammonia is formed with one nitrogen and three hydrogen atoms. What is the electron configuration of nitrogen? How
masya89 [10]

Answer:

<u>One lone-Pair is present in Ammonia</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

The number of valence electron in N = 5

The number of Valence electron in H = 1

The formula of ammonia = NH3

Total valence electron in ammonia molecule = 5 +3(1) = 5+3 = 8

The lewis structure suggest that :

Nitrogen completes its octet by sharing the electron pair with 3 hydrogen atoms.

3 electron of Nitrogen are involved in sharing with Hydrogen

So,<u><em> remaining two electron are left non-bonded</em></u> . Hence they exist as lone- pair

So, there is only 1 lone pair in the ammonia molecule .

The shape of NH3 is bent according to VSEPR theory . This is so because the presence of 1 lone pair causes more repulsion and occupy more space.

Thus the lone pair is changing the shape of the ammonia molecule . It also increase the dipole moment of the molecule , which gives polarity to it.

Paul [167]

Answer : The volume of O_2(g) produced at standard conditions of temperature and pressure is 0.2422 L

Explanation :

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of O_2 gas = (740-22.4) torr = 717.6 torr

P_2 = final pressure of O_2 gas at STP= 760 torr

V_1 = initial volume of O_2 gas = 280 mL

V_2 = final volume of O_2 gas at STP = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of O_2 gas = 25^oC=273+25=298K

T_2 = final temperature of O_2 gas = 0^oC=273+0=273K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{717.6torr\times 280mL}{298K}=\frac{760torr\times V_2}{273K}

V_2=242.2mL=0.2422L

Therefore, the volume of O_2(g) produced at standard conditions of temperature and pressure is 0.2422 L
