A.Crabs were exposed to a toxin in the water.


B.Crabs with this adaptation have an advantage over other crabs to defend against predators in oyster beds.


C.Crabs needed this adaptation to dig into sand to find food so they developed the flattened paddle-like shape.

help pleaseeee. over dilutions in chemistry

Answers

Answer:

5 L

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the molarity of the CaCl₂ solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of CaCl₂ = 0.5 mole

Volume = 2 L

Molarity =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

Molarity = 0.5 / 2

Molarity = 0.25 M

Finally, we shall determine the volume of the diluted solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Molarity of stock solution (M₁) = 0.25 M

Volume of stock solution (V₁) = 2 L

Molarity of diluted solution (M₂) = 0.1 M

Volume of diluted solution (V₂) =?

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂

0.25 × 2 = 0.1 × V₂

0.5 = 0.1 × V₂

Divide both side by 0.1

V₂ = 0.5 / 0.1

V₂ = 5 L

Thus the volume of the diluted solution is 5 L

Answer:

1. Mass of KCl produced = 774.8 g of KCl

2. Mass of KNO₃ produced = 13.837g

3. Moles of NaOH made = 0.846 moles

4. Moles of LiCl produced = 0.846 moles

5. Moles of CO₂ produced = 207.6 moles

Explanation:

1. From the equation of reaction, 1 mole of ZnCl₂ produces, 2 moles of KCl.

5.02 moles of ZnCl₂ will produce, 2 × 5.02 moles of KCl = 10.4 moles of KCl

Molar mass of KCl = (39 + 35.5) g/mol = 74.5 g/mol

10.4 moles of KCl = 10.4 × 74.5 g

Mass of KCl produced = 774.8 g of KCl

2. Mole ratio of KNO₃ and KOH = 1:1

O.137 moles of KOH will produce 0.137 moles of KNO₃

Molar mass of KNO₃ = 101 g/mol

Mass of KNO₃ produced = 0.137 × 101 g = 13.837g

3. Molar mas of Ca(OH)₂ = 74.0 g

Moles of Ca(OH)₂ in 31.3 g = 31.3/74.0 = 0.423 moles of Ca(OH)₂

Mole ratio of NaOH and Ca(OH)₂ in the reaction = 2 : 1

Moles of NaOH made = 2 × 0.423 = 0.846 moles

4. Molar mass of MgCl₂ = 95.0 g

Moles of MgCl₂ in 40.2 g = 40.2/95.0 = 0.423 moles

From the reaction equation, mole ratio of MgCl₂ and LiCl = 1:2

Moles of LiCl produced = 2 × 0.423 = 0.846 moles

5. From the equation of reaction, 1 mole of C₆H₁₀O₅ produces 6 moles of cO₂

34.6 moles of C₆H₁₀O₅ will produce 34.6 × 6 moles of CO₂

Moles of CO₂ produced = 207.6 moles

One mole of CO2(g) is expanding isothermally and reversibly from a volume of 0.100 dm3 to a volume of 100 dm3. Calculate the work in "kJ" of the expansion process if: 1/ the gas is considered real gas. (Hint: use the Van Der Waals equation for real gases to express the pressure in the work equation). 2/ The gas is considered perfect gas. Given: The constants for CO2(g) are: a= 3.59 atm L2/mol2, b= 0.0427 L/mol Answer: a) the expansion work for CO2 as real gas is W = kJ. b) the expansion work for CO2 as perfect gas is W = kJ.

Answers

Solution :

For the real gas following Vander Waals equation, reversible isothermal work done is given by :

[tex]$W= \int P \ dV$[/tex]

[tex]$W= \int \left(\frac{nR}{V-nb}-\frac{an^2}{V^2}\right) dV$[/tex]

[tex]$W_{real}=-nRT \ln \left[\frac{V_2-b}{V_1-b}\right]-an^2\left[\frac{1}{V_2}-\frac{1}{V_1}\right]$[/tex]

Given : [tex]$V_1=0.1 \ dm^3$[/tex], [tex]$$V_2 =100 \ dm^3[/tex]  

[tex]$a=359 \ atm \ L^2/ mol^2, \ \ b = 0.0427 \ L/mol$[/tex]

As T is not given, assuming T = 290 K

[tex]$W_{real} = 0.0823 \times 240 \left[ \ln \left(\frac{100-0.042}{0.1-0.0427}\right)\right]-3.59\left[\frac{1}{100}-\frac{1}{0.1}\right]$[/tex]

[tex]$W_{real}= -183.06+35.864$[/tex]

[tex]$W_{real}=-147.196$[/tex]

For the perfect gas,

[tex]$W=nRT \ln\left[\frac{V_2}{V_1}\right] =(1)(0.0823)(290) \ln \left[\frac{100}{0.1}\right]$[/tex]

[tex]$W_{ideal}=169.415$[/tex] kJ

If you have 1.5 grams of silver nitrate, how many grams of silver could

Answers

Answer:

0.95g of Ag we can produce

Explanation:

To solve this question we have to convert the mass of silver nitrate (AgNO₃) to moles. The moles of silver nitrate = Moles of Ag. Then, with molar mass of Ag we can know the mass of silver:

Moles AgNO₃ -Molar mass: 169.87g/mol-:

1.5g * (1mol / 169.87g) = 0.0088 moles Ag

Mass Ag -Molar mass: 107.87g/mol-:

If another predator was introduced to this food web, this food web would fail because it won't be balanced well. Let's say the predator eats more food than the eagle. Then the eagle would have less food for itself, and it might go endangered, and vice versa if the eagle eats more. Either way, this would cause almost no worms left and that means there would be an overflow of the rats because there would be no worms for them to be eaten by. This would cause a shortage of crops as well.

Explanation:

When we are writing chemical reaction equations, we must ensure that such equations are balanced. That is, the number of atoms of each element on both sides of the reaction equation are exactly the same.

After we identify the formula of each compound in the reaction, then we proceed the write the balanced reaction equation as follows;

An object has balanced forces acting on it. Which of the following describes the result these balanced forces have on the object? A. It remains at rest or speeds up in the same direction. B. It speeds up in the same direction or moves at constant speed. C. It speeds up in the same direction or slows down. D. It remains at rest or moves at constant speed in the same direction.

Answers

Answer:

C.It remains at rest or moves at constant speed in the same direction.

Explanation:

First, remember the Newton's 1st law of motion which states that the object at rest will remain at rest and that in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and same direction unless acted by unbalance forces.

Balanced forces on an object occur when two forces at act on an object are equal in size and act in opposite direction. In this case, a stationary object will stay at  rest while an object moving will continue to move at the same speed and same direction.

An object acted by balanced forces is said to be at equilibrium, thus the state of motion will be maintained.The object will not accelerate. A good example of an object acted by balanced forces is an object at rest or in constant motion such as a car that stopped at red-light signal or a car travelling at a constant speed.

A reaction between 1.7 moles of zinc Ipdide and excess sodium carbonate ylelds 12.6 grams of zinc carbonate. This is the equation for the
reaction:
Na2CO3 + Zniz - 2Nal +
ZnCoz.
What is the percent yield of zinc carbonate?
The percent yield of zinc carbonate is
5.91
1X.

Answers

Answer: The percent yield of zinc carbonate is 5.91 %

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

[tex]\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}[/tex]

 [tex]\text{Moles of} ZnCO_3=\frac{12.6 g}{125.4g/mol}=0.100moles[/tex]

[tex]ZnI_2[/tex] is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and [tex]Na_2CO_3[/tex] is the excess reagent.  

[tex]Na_2CO_3+ZnI_2\rightarrow 2NaI+ZnCO_3[/tex]  

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of produce =  1 mole of

Thus 1.7 moles of [tex]ZnI_2[/tex] will produce=[tex]\frac{1}{1}\times 1.7=1.7moles[/tex]  of [tex]ZnCO_3[/tex]

Theoretical yield of [tex]ZnCO_3=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=1.7moles\times 125.4g/mol=213.2g[/tex]

percentage yield = [tex]\frac{\text {Experimental yield}}{\text {Theoretical yield}}\times 100=\frac{12.6g}{213.2g}\times 100=5.91\%[/tex]
