Answer: Yes

Explanation: Plasmids offer a number of unique characteristics that make genetic engineering much more efficient. Plasmids are a type of non-chromosomal DNA. Integrating DNA into a bacterial or other chromosome is far more complex than simply putting DNA into a cell; plasmids make it easier to transport DNA into a cell by eliminating this step.

Silicon has 2 isotopes, Silicon-28 with an abundance of 90% and Silicon-30 with an abundance of 10%. Find the AAM for Silicon.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

RAM

$RAM = (mass \: of \: ^{28} Si \: \times \%abundance) + (mass \: of \: ^{30} Si \: \times \%abundance) \\ RAM = (28 \times 90\%) + (30 \times 10\%) \\ RAM = 25.2 + 3 \\ RAM = 28.2$

Find the percent composition of OXYGEN in Manganese (III) nitrate, Mn(NO3)3.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

59.8%

Explanation:

First find the Mr of manganese (III) nitrate.

Mr of Mn(NO₃)₃ = 54.9 + (14 × 3) + (16 × 3 × 3) = 240.9

Since we have to find the percentage composition of oxygen, we need to find the Mr of oxygen in the compound, which is:

Mr of (O₃)₃ = (16 × 3) × 3 = 144

Now we can find percentage composition / percentage by mass of oxygen.

% composition = $\frac{Mr\ of\ oxygen\ in\ compound}{Mr\ of\ compound}$ × 100

% composition = $\frac{144}{240.9}$ × 100 = 59.776%

∴ % compostion of oxygen in maganese(III)nitrate is 59.8% (to 3 significant figures).

What is the (OH-) in a solution with a pOH of 6.48

inn [45]

Through manipulation of equations, we are able to obtain the equation:

$-pOH= log [ OH^{-}]$

Then we can transform the equation into:

$[ OH^{-}]= 10^{-pOH}$

Then we are able to plug in the pOH and directly get [OH-]:

$[ OH^{-}] = 10^{-6.48}$

$[ OH^{-}]=3.31* 10^{-7} M$
