Answer: A change in the sequence of DNA bases--> Joining amino acids in sequence --> Appearance of characteristics

Explanation:

A mutation is a permanent shift or change from the normal DNA sequence that makes up a gene and affect traits which makes the sequence becomes different from what is commonly found in people. Mutations vary from distortion of a single DNA building block to a large segment of a chromosome.

When mutation occurs in a cell, for the mutation to affect the traits expressed by the particular cell, it must follow this sequence directly:

A change in the sequence of DNA bases--> Joining amino acids in the sequence --> Appearance of characteristics.

A solution of 20.0 g of which hydrated salt dissolved in 200 g H2O will have the lowest freezing point? (A) CuSO4 • 5 H2O (M = 2
Andrews [41]

Answer:

(D) Na₂SO₄•10H₂O (M = 286).

Explanation:

  • The depression in freezing point of water by adding a solute is determined using the relation:

ΔTf = i.Kf.m,

Where, <em>ΔTf </em>is the depression in freezing point of water.

<em>i</em> is van't Hoff factor.

<em>Kf </em>is the molal depression constant.

<em>m</em> is the molality of the solute.

  • Since, Kf and m is constant for all the mentioned salts. So, the depression in freezing point depends strongly on the van't Hoff factor (i).
  • van't Hoff factor is the ratio between the actual concentration of particles produced when the substance is dissolved and the concentration of a substance as calculated from its mass.

(A) CuSO₄•5H₂O:

CuSO₄ is dissociated to Cu⁺² and SO₄²⁻.

So, i = dissociated ions/no. of particles = 2/1 = 2.

(B) NiSO₄•6H₂O:

NiSO₄ is dissociated to Ni⁺² and SO₄²⁻.

So, i = dissociated ions/no. of particles = 2/1 = 2.

(C) MgSO₄•7H₂O:

MgSO₄ is dissociated to Mg⁺² and SO₄²⁻.

So, i = dissociated ions/no. of particles = 2/1 = 2.

(D) Na₂SO₄•10H₂O:

Na₂SO₄ is dissociated to 2 Na⁺ and SO₄²⁻.

So, i = dissociated ions/no. of particles = 3/1 = 3.

∴ The salt with the high (i) value is Na₂SO₄•10H₂O.

So, the highest ΔTf resulted by adding Na₂SO₄•10H₂O salt.

A chemical engineer must report the average volume of a certain pollutant produced by the plants under her supervision. Here are
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

The chemical engineer should report average volume of 15.34 L.

Explanation:

Volume of Macon = 0.519 L

Volume of Allegheny = 44.67 L

Volume of Doheny = 0.826 L

Average of the volume of the pollutants:

\frac{0.519 L+44.67 L+ 0.826L}{3}=\frac{46.015 L}{3}=15.33833 L

The rule apply for the addition and subtraction is :

The least precise number present after the decimal point determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

Here the 44.67  has two significant digit after decimal point.So the answer will be reported as in with 2 significant figures after decimal point.

15.33833 L\approx 15.34 L

The chemical engineer should report average volume of 15.34 L.

A 2.50-l flask contains a mixture of methane (ch4) and propane (c3h8) at a pressure of 1.45 atm and 20°c. when this gas mixture
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:- Mole fraction of methane in the original gas mixture is 0.854.

Solution:- From given volume, pressure and temperature, we could calculate the total moles of the gaseous mixture of methane and propane using ideal gas law as:

PV = nRT

n=\frac{PV}{RT}

V = 2.50 L

P = 1.45 atm

T = 20 + 273 = 293 K

Let's plug in the values in the equation:

n=(\frac{1.45*2.50}{0.0821*293})

n = 0.151

Let's say the solution has X moles of methane. Then moles of propane would be = (0.151 - X)

The combustion equations of methane and propane are:

CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

C_3H_8+5O_2\rightarrow 3CO_2+4H_2O

From methane balanced equation, there is 1:1 mol ratio between methane and carbon dioxide. So, X moles of methane would produce X moles of carbon dioxide.

From balanced equation of propane, there is 1:3 mol ratio between propane and carbon dioxide. So, (0.151 - X) moles of propane would give 3(0.151 - X) moles of carbon dioxide.

So, total moles of carbon dioxide that we would get from methane and propane combustion are:

X + 3(0.151 - X)

From given data, 8.60 g of carbon dioxide are formed by the combustion of gas mixture.

moles of Carbon dioxide = 8.60g(\frac{1mol}{44g})

moles of carbon dioxide = 0.195 mol

Hence, 0.195 = X + 3(0.151 - X)

Let's solve this for X as:

0.195 = X + 0.453 - 3X

0.195 = 0.453 - 2X

2X = 0.453 - 0.195

2X = 0.258

X=\frac{0.258}{2}

X = 0.129

So, there are 0.129 moles of methane in the mixture.

moles of propane = 0.151 - 0.129 = 0.022

mole fraction of methane = \frac{moles of Methane}{total moles}

mole fraction of methane = \frac{0.129}{0.151}

mole fraction of methane = 0.854

Hence, the mole fraction of methane gas in the original gas mixture is 0.854.

As a sodium atom is oxidized the number of protons in its nucleus
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The proton remains the same.

Explanation:

Oxidation is simply defined as the loss of electron(s) during a chemical reaction either by an atom, molecule or ion.

Oxidation is strictly on the transfer of electron(s) and not proton.

A metal that undergoes oxidation still has its protons intact otherwise it will not be called the ion of the metal since atomic number is called the proton number.

Sodium (Na) undergoes oxidation as follow:

Na —> Na+ + e-

Na is called sodium metal.

Na+ is called sodium ion.

Na has 11 electrons and 11 protons

Na+ has 10 electrons and 11 protons

From the above illustration, we can see that the protons of Na and Na+ are the same why their electrons differ because Na+ indicates that 1 electron has been loss or transferred.
