Although we are all unique, there are often obvious similarities within families. Maybe you have the same nose as your brother or red hair like your mother? Family similarities occur because we inherit traits from our parents (in the form of the genes that contribute to the traits).

This passing of genes from one generation to the next is called heredity. Simple organisms pass on genes by duplicating their genetic information and then splitting to form an identical organism. More complex organisms, including humans, produce specialised sex cells (gametes) that carry half of the genetic information, then combine these to form new organisms. The process that produces gametes is called meiosis.

Answer:

Through stages of meiosis and mitosis (cell division), DNA is split and transferred to the child. The new offspring inherits exactly half the DNA from each of their parents, while each parent passes half their DNA to each of their children. During sexual fertilization, DNA from both the parents combine.

A 0. 1220 g vitamin c tablet was dissolved in acid. This required 11. 50 ml of 0. 01740 m kio3 to reach the endpoint. Calculate
kodGreya [7K]

86.66 %  by weight of ascorbic acid in the tablet, when 0. 1220 g vitamin c tablet was dissolved in acid. This required 11. 50 ml of 0. 01740 m KIO_3 to reach the endpoint.

<h3>What is a balanced chemical equation?</h3>

A balanced chemical reaction is an equation that has equal numbers of each type of atom on both sides of the arrow.

3C_6H_80_6 +3I_2 +KIO_3 +5KI +6H^+ → 3C_6H_60_6 +6I^- +3I_2+6K^+ +3H_2O

So, the balanced chemical equation for the reaction will be:

3C_6H_8O_6 +KIO_3 → 3C_6H_6O_6 +KI + 3H_2O

That means, 3 mol of of ascorbic acid reacts with 1 mol of KIO_3

Moles of KIO_3 available is 0.0174 X 0.0115 =0.0002001 mol

Moles of ascorbic acid to be yielded should be 3 X 0.0002001 =0.0006003

So, percent mass of ascorbic acid in the tablet will be:

(0.1057 / 0.1220) X 100 %

=86.66 %

Hence, the third option is the correct answer.

sveta [45]

Answer:

Mole fraction for C₂₂H₁₉Cl₂NO₃ = 0.0086

Explanation:

Mole fraction remains a sort of concentration. It indicates:

moles of solute / (moles of solute + moles of solvent)

Moles of solute / Total moles.

Solute: Cypermethrin → C₂₂H₁₉Cl₂NO₃

Solvent: Water (PM = 18g/mol)

We calculate moles from solvent: 1000g /18 g/mol = 55.5 moles

We calculate PM for C₂₂H₁₉Cl₂NO₃

12g/mol . 22 + 1g/mol . 19 + 35.45 g/mol . 2+ 14g/mol + 16g/mol . 3 = 416 g/m

Moles of solute: 200 g / 416g/mol = 0.481 moles

Total moles: 0.481 + 55.5 = 55.98 moles

Mole fraction for C₂₂H₁₉Cl₂NO₃ = 0.481 moles / 55.98 moles = 0.0086
