Answer:

  • <u>The process illustrated can be described as the exponential growth of a population, starting with one individual, with a multiplicative growing rate of 2.</u>

<u></u>

  • <u>If the process continued for one more generation, 8 individuals would exist.</u>

Explanation:

The diagram illustrates the multiplication of individuals (population) by a factor of two. First generation consits of one individual (one green oval), second generation has two individuals (two green ovals), and third generation has four individuals (four green ovals).

Hence, you see that the individuals are growing with a multiplicative rate of 2:

  • First generation: 1 individual

  • Second genertation: 2 individuals = 2 × 1

  • Third generation: 4 individuals = 2 × 2 = 4

Now you can calculate how many individuals would exist if the process continued for one more generation: just multiply the previous generation by 2:

  • Number of individuals in a generation = 2 × number of individuals in the previous generation.

  • Number of individuals in the fourth generation = 2 × number of individuals in the third generation.

  • Number of individuals in the fourth generation = 2 × 4 = 8

Calculate the oxidation number of the chlorine in perchloric acid, hclo4, a strong oxidizing agent.
Sveta_85 [38]
<span>The oxidation number that is given to chlorine in a chemical combination indicates how many electrons are gained or lost because it is a neutral compound, perchloric acid has a total charge of 0. Hydrogen has an oxidation number of +1,whereas oxygen has an oxidation number of -2. So for the total charge to be 0, 1 hydrogen + 4 oxygen of negative charge added together must equal 0, which will make the oxidation number of chlorine, solving this algebraically +7.</span>

A voltaic cell is constructed from a standard Ni2+|Ni half cell (E°red = -0.250V) and a standard Fe3+|Fe2+ half cell (E°red = 0.
tester [92]

Answer:

Anode half reaction equation:

Ni(s)------> Ni^2+(aq) + 2e-

Explanation:

Looking at the values of reduction potential given in the question, Ni2+|Ni half cell has a more negative reduction potential than the Fe3+|Fe2+ half cell. The more negative the reduction potential of a half cell, the more its tendency to act as the anode. Hence based on the half cell reduction potentials presented in the question, Ni2+|Ni is the anode while the other is the cathode.

Observe: Change the Surface area from Minimum to Maximum. You can imagine that a
NeX [460]

Answer:

Changing the surface area from minimum to maximum increases the number of reactants in a chemical reaction.

An increase in surface area of a solid reactant means more of its particles are exposed to attack by the other Particle. This results in an increased chance of collisions between reactant particles, so there are more collisions in any given time and the rate of reaction increases.
