Describe how alleles and genes are related.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A gene is a stretch of DNA or RNA that determines a certain trait. Genes mutate and can take two or more alternative forms; an allele is one of these forms of a gene. Chromosomes occur in pairs so organisms have two alleles for each gene one allele in each chromosome in the pair.

Answers

Answer:

food, mostly consists of what you eat.

Explanation:

The body get the energy needed to transform into kinetic energy from food.

Food:

Every body part (muscles, brain, heart, and liver) need energy to work. This energy comes from the food we eat. Our bodies digest the food we eat by mixing it with fluids (acids and enzymes) in the stomach.

The main sources of energy are: carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins.

Speed and velocity both represent a way to measure the change in position of an object relative to time. In fact, for a straight line motion, the speed and velocity of an object are the same (since distance and displacement will be the same). Speed and velocity are measured in the same units: meters per second or m/s.

A carbon bond between the amino acids is formed in a dehydration reaction. So the correct option is A.

What is a dehydration reaction?

A reaction where two smaller molecules are combined in a chemical manner by the removal of an element from each of these molecules is called a dehydration reaction. Organic compounds are classified on the basis of structure. They are classified as aliphatic and aromatic compounds. Different kinds of chemical reactions are involved in the formation of new compounds when there is a change in bonding between the atoms.

There are some chemical reactions that form a molecule and some only show a displacement or substitution of atoms. There are synthesis or combination reactions that involve a combination of two substances to form one molecule.

On the other hand, there are decomposition reactions in which one substance decomposes to form more than one substance. There are displacement reactions which can be single or double displacement. They involve the displacement of one or more components of compounds among each other. Addition, substitution, rearrangement, elimination, and oxidation-reduction reactions are some of the common organic reactions.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

Explain the different principles that allow roller coasters to rip and roar around the tracks. In your response, include how energy is transferred back and forth between kinetic and potential.

Answers

Answer:

In the roller coasters the potential energy that is given is the gravitational potential energy, which this energy increases its value as the object moves away from the earth, that is to say, the more height the roller coaster acquires the more gravitational potential energy it will have, and Said train where people usually get on the roller coaster will descend or descend with greater acceleration.

This gravitational potential energy once the mountain begins to descend or descend is converted into kinetic energy

Explanation:

This that we wrote above is considering that the roller coaster does not have curved routes but rectilinear, in the case that it had curved routes, a force would be added in addition to those written that is the centripetal force, it is the same force that appears in the centrifuges or dryers of clothes or the same washing machine. This force, the centripetal force is the force that draws a moving object, in a curvilinear path, towards the center of the curvature.

A 52-gram sample of water that has an initial temperature of 10.0 °C absorbs 4,130 joules. If the specific heat of water is 4.184 J/(g °C), what is the final temperature of the water? (4 points) Group of answer choices 11 °C 19 °C 29 °C 51 °C

Answers

Answer:

28.98°C

Explanation:

Mass = 52g

Initial temperature (T1) = 10°C

Final temperature (T2) = ?

Heat energy (Q) = 4130J

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.184J/g°C

Heat energy (Q) = mc∇T

Q = heat energy

M = mass of the substance

C = specific heat capacity of the substance

∇T = change in temperature (T2 - T1)

Q = mc∇T

4130 = 52 * 4.184 * (T2 - 10)

4130 = 217.568 * ( T2 - 10)

4130 = 217.568T2 - 2175.68

217.568T2 = 4130 + 2175.68

217.57T2 = 6305.68

T2 = 6305.68 / 217.57

T2 = 28.98°C

Final temperature is 28.98°C

If the mole fraction of sulfuric acid H2SO4 is 0.432 what is the percent by mass of H2SO4.

Answers

Answer:

19.47%

Explanation:

The percentage by mass of [tex]H_2SO_4[/tex] would be 19.47%.

The percentage by mass of a substance in solution is calculated as:

   [tex]\frac{mass of substance}{mass of substance + water} * 100%[/tex]

Given that the mole fraction of [tex]H_2SO_4[/tex] = 0.432

The total number of mole fraction of a solution = 1

Hence, mole fraction of water = 1 - 0.432 = 0.568

Mass of water = molar mass x mole

                              = 98.079 x 0.432 = 42.37 g

Mass of [tex]H_2SO_4[/tex] = molar mass x mole

                          = 18.02 x 0.568 = 10.24 g

Hence,

%mass of [tex]H_2SO_4[/tex] = [tex]\frac{10.24}{10.24 + 42.37} * 100[/tex]

                         = 19.47%

Answers

Answer:

485 torr

Explanation:

Explanation:

We can solve this equation using the combined gas law:

P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2

Remember, always use the absolute (Kelvin) temperature when working with gas equations.

The temperature conversions are

T1=C+273=35o+273=308K

T2=57C+273=330K

Since we're trying to find the final pressure, let's rearrange this equation to solve for

P2:

P2=P1V1T2/T1V2

Our known values:

P1= 550 torr

V1=350mL

T1=308K

V2=425"mL

T2=330K

Let's plug these into the equation to find the final pressure:

The final pressure after it is subjected to these changes is thus 485torr

0.450 moles of K2SO4 are dissolved in 195.0 mL of water. Calculate the molarity of the solution.

Answers

Answer:

2.31M

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mole of K2SO4 = 0.450 mole

Volume of water = 195.0 mL = 195/1000 = 0.195L

Molarity =...?

Molarity is defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of the solution. This can be expressed as:

Molarity = mole /Volume

With the above formula we can calculate the molarity of the K2SO4 solution as follow:

Molarity = mole /Volume

Molarity = 0.450/0.195

Molarity = 2.31M

Answers

Answer: 780 kcal are required to produce 12.00 mol of [tex]Cl_2O_7[/tex]

Explanation:

Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and written along with reactants.

The balanced chemical reaction is:

[tex]2Cl_2(g)+7O_2(g)+130kcal\rightarrow 2Cl_2O_7(g)[/tex]

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of [tex]Cl_2O_7[/tex] are produced by absorption of energy = 130 kcal

Thus 12.00 moles of [tex]Cl_2O_7[/tex] are produced by absorption of energy = [tex]\frac{130}{2}\times 12.00=780kcal[/tex]

Thus 780 kcal are required to produce 12.00 mol of [tex]Cl_2O_7[/tex]

Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if needed, and is rounded to 2 significant digits.

Answers

Answer:

5.9 kg  

Explanation:

We must work backwards from the second step to work out the mass of oxygen.

1. Second step

Mᵣ:                                     55.84

            Fe₂O₃ + 3CO  ⟶  2Fe  +  3CO₂

m/kg:                                    7.0

(a) Moles of Fe

[tex]\text{Moles of FeO} = \text{7000 g Fe} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol Fe}}{\text{55.84 g Fe}} = \text{125 mol Fe}[/tex]

(b) Moles of CO

[tex]\text{Moles of CO} = \text{125 mol Fe} \times \dfrac{\text{3 mol CO}}{\text{2 mol Fe}} = \text{188 mol CO}[/tex]

However, this is the theoretical yield.

The actual yield is 72. %.

We need more CO and Fe₂O₃ to get the theoretical yield of Fe.

(c) Percent yield

[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}\text{Percent yield} &=& \dfrac{\text{ actual yield}}{\text{ theoretical yield}} \times 100 \, \%\\\\ 72. \, \% & = & \dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{\text{actual yield}} \times 100 \,\%\\\\0.72 &= &\dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{\text{actual yield}}\\\\\text{Actual yield} & = & \dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{0.72}\\& = & \textbf{261 mol}\\\\\end{array}[/tex]

We must use 261 mol of CO to get 7.0 kg of Fe.

2. First step

Mᵣ:                32.00

            2C   +  O₂   ⟶  2CO

n/mol:                             261

(a) Moles of O₂

[tex]\text{Moles of O}_{2} = \text{261 mol CO} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol O}_{2}}{\text{2 mol CO}} = \text{131 mol O}_{2}[/tex]

(b) Mass of O₂

[tex]\text{Mass of O}_{2}= \text{131 mol O }_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{32.00 g O}_{2}}{\text{1 mol O}_{2}} = \text{4180 g O}_{2}[/tex]

However, this is the theoretical yield.

The actual yield is 71. %.

We need more C and O₂ to get the theoretical yield of CO.

(c) Percent yield

[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}71. \, \% & = & \dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{\text{actual yield}} \times 100 \,\%\\\\0.71 &= &\dfrac{\text{4180 g}}{\text{actual yield}}\\\\\text{Actual yield} & = & \dfrac{\text{4180 g}}{0.71}\\\\& = & \text{5900 g}\\& = & \textbf{5.9 kg}\\\end{array}[/tex]

We need 5.9 kg of O₂ to produce 7.0 kg of Fe.

gas occupy if the pressure changes to 0.980 atm and the temperature remains
unchanged? Show your work in the space below. *​

Answers

Answer:

2.58 L

Explanation:

Please see the step-by-step solution in the picture attached below.

Hope this answer can help you. Have a nice day!

At constant temperature, if the pressure of the gas decreases to the given value, the volume increases to 2.58L.

What is Boyle's law?

Boyle's law simply states that "the volume of any given quantity of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure as long as temperature remains constant.

Boyle's law is expressed as;

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Where P₁ is Initial Pressure, V₁ is Initial volume, P₂ is Final Pressure and V₂ is Final volume.

Given the data in the question

Initial volume V₁ = 2.45LInitial pressure P₁ = 1.03atmFinal pressure P₂ = 0.980 atmFinal volume V₂ = ?

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

V₂ = P₁V₁ / P₂

V₂ = ( 1.03atm × 2.45L ) / 0.980atm

V₂ = 2.5235Latm / 0.980atm

V₂ = 2.58L

Therefore, at constant temperature, if the pressure of the gas decreases to the given value, the volume increases to 2.58L.
