Answer:

hope this helps <3

Explanation:

Landon glances across the dinner table and thinks to himself that his fathers curly hair looks just like his own. He wishes his hair were straight like his mothers because he thinks he looks better with straight hair. Landon works hard to keep it straighter by combing and using hair gel, but it usually curls right back up. He has his mothers nose, but not her hair, unlike his sister Emily, who is also the result of the combination of the DNA from both of his parents and has straight hair like their mothers. Most eukaryotic organisms, like Landon, are formed through the process of sexual reproduction. Landon realizes that he and Emily are evidence that sexual reproduction, the combination of their two parents, creates diverse offspring.

Landons dinner plate is filled with one of his favorite foods-mashed potatoes made from potatoes fresh from his grandmothers garden. He remembers helping her get ready to plant the potatoes in early spring. They cut each potato into several pieces and planted the pieces in a nice straight row in the garden. When these eukaryotic plants came up, he noticed that each plant looked like all the others. These identical offspring with uniform traits are the result of asexual reproduction. Landons grandmother grew potatoes by cutting the whole potato into smaller pieces, which is a type of asexual reproduction called vegetative propagation.

After dinner, Landon wanted to go watch television, but his mother insisted that he put the leftover food in the refrigerator. Perhaps she knew that the cool temperature inside the refrigerator would stop the growth of bacteria, which are prokaryotic and can reproduce asexually in as little as 20 minutes. This rapid asexual reproduction, called binary fission, would produce thousands and thousands of identical bacterial cells that could cause Landons tasty leftover food to spoil before the end of his favorite show.

Landon finishes up the dishes and puts away the leftovers. As he sets the last dinner glass back into the cupboard, he catches a glimpse of his curly hair in his reflection. He thinks to himself that his mothers nose and his fathers hair are actually a good combination that looks pretty good on him

What volume would 3.01•1023 molecules of oxygen gas occupy at STP?
Sliva [168]
First, find moles of oxygen gas: (3.01 x10^23 molec.)/(6.02 x10^23) =0.5mol O2


Second, multiply moles by the standard molar volume of a gas at STP:(0.5mol)(22.4L) = 11.2L O2

Compare the rates of effusion for carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide gases
Airida [17]
According to Grahams law the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of it's molecular weight. The rate of diffusion is the measure of rate at which two gases mix. From this law we can say that for the two gases carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, the rate of effusion of carbon monoxide is greater than that of carbon dioxide, this is because carbon monoxide is lighter (28 g) compared to carbon dioxide (44 g).

. a large piece of jewelry has a mass of 132.6 g. a graduated cylinder initially contains 48.6 ml water. when the jewelry is sub
elena-s [515]

The large piece of jewelry  that has a mass of 132.6 g and when is submerged in a graduated cylinder that initially contains 48.6 ml water and the volume increases to 61.2 ml once the piece of jewelry is submerged, has a density of: 10.523 g/ml

To solve this problem the formulas and the procedures that we have to use  are:

  • v = v(f)-v(i)
  • d = m/v

Where:

  • d= density
  • m= mass
  • v= volume
  • v(f) = final volume
  • v(i) = initial volume

Information about the problem:

  • m = 132.6 g
  • v(i) = 48.6 ml
  • v(f) = 61.2 ml
  • v = ?
  • d =?

Applying the volume formula we get:

v = v(f)-v(i)

v = 61.2 ml - 48.6 ml

v = 12.6 ml

Applying the density  formula we get:

d = m/v

d = 132.6 g/12.6 ml

d = 10.523 g/ml

<h3>What is density?</h3>

It is a physical quantity that expresses the ratio of the body mass to the volume it occupies.

Concentrated HCl is 37% m/m. The density of the solution is 1.19 g/mL. Assume you have 100.0 grams of SOLUTION.
sdas [7]

Answer:

M HCl sln = 12.0785 M

Explanation:

  • molarity (M) [=] mol/L
  • %mm = ((mass compound)/(mass sln))*100

∴ mass sln = 100.0 g

∴ δ sln = 1.19 g/mL

∴ % m/m = 37 %

⇒ 37 % =((mass HCl/mass sln))*100

⇒ 0.37 = mass HCl / 100.0 g

⇒ 37 g = mass HCl

∴ molar mass HCl = 36.46 g/mol

⇒ mol HCl = (37 g)*(mol/36.46 g) = 1.015 mol

⇒ volume sln = (100 g sln)*(mL/1.19 g) =  84.034 mL = 0.084034 L

⇒ M HClsln = 1.015 mol/0.084034 L

⇒ M HCl sln = 12.0785 M
