Why are metallic crystals malleable and ductile? A. The electrons are free floating, allowing them to move with the atoms when t

he metal is struck and the crystal lattice shifts. B. The free floating electrons conduct energy easily, and disperse the energy of being hit by a hammer or other tool, allowing them to be molded and not break. C. The crystal lattice is made of very strong ionic bonds that take a lot of energy to break. D. The atoms are arranged with alternating positive and negative charges. When struck, the lattice shifts putting positives against positives and negatives against negatives.

Answer:

D. The atoms are arranged with alternating positive and negative charges. When struck, the lattice shifts putting positives against positives and negatives against negatives.

Explanation:

Metallic crystals takes their properties as a result of metallic bonds in between the atoms.

Metallic bond is actually the attraction between the positive nuclei of all the closely packed atoms in the lattice and the electron cloud jointly formed by all the atoms by losing their outermost shell electrons this is by virtue of their low ionization energy.

Physical properties of metals such as malleability, ductility, electrical conductivity, etc can be accounted for by metallic bonds.

A gas sample occupies 3.50 liters of volume at 20.°c. what volume will this gas occupy at 100.°c (reported to three significant
VLD [36.1K]

Explanation:

According to Charle's law, at constant pressure the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to the temperature.

That is,             Volume \propto Temperature

Hence, it is given that V_{1} is 3.50 liters, T_{1} is 20 degree celsius, and T_{2} is 100 degree celsius.

Therefore, calculate V_{2} as follows.

                           \frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}

                           \frac{3.50 liter}{20^{o}C} = \frac{V_{2}}{100^{o}C}

                                V_{2} = 17.5 liter

Thus, we can conclude that volume of gas required at 100 degree celsius is 17.5 liter.

All amino acids that are found in proteins, except for proline, contain a(n); Group of answer choices amino group carbonyl group
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

amino group

Explanation:

There are twenty (20) amino acids in nature. Generally, each amino acid is structurally made up of a central carbon atom called alpha carbon attached to a hydrogen, carboxylic acid group (-COOH) and an amine group (-NH2). However, one particular amino acid called PROLINE posseses an exception to this.

Proline, which is the only cyclic amino acid, is also the only amino acid that forms a secondary amine group i.e. loss of hydrogen atoms in its amine group when in a protein structure. This means that when in a protein, PROLINE does not have an AMINE GROUP.

I NEED HELP ASAP, WILL MARK BRAINLEST!
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

1. 90%

2. 217.4 g O₂

3. 95.0%

4. Trial 2 ratios

Explanation:

Original: SiCl₄ + O₂ → SiO₂ + Cl₂

Balanced: SiCl₄ + O₂ → SiO₂ + 2Cl₂

Trial        SiCl₄                   O₂                    SiO₂

 1           120 g                  240 g              38.2 g

 2           75 g                   50 g                25.2 g

<u>Percentage yield for trial 1</u>

We need to get actual yield (38.2 g) and theoretical yield, in grams.

Mass to moles:

 molar mass SiCl₄: 28.09 + 4(35.45) = 169.9 g/mol

 120 g SiCl₄ x 1 mol/169.9 g = .706 mol SiCl₄

Moles to moles:

 For each mole SiCl₄, we have one mol SiO₂ based on the balanced rxn.

 .706 mol SiCl₄ = .706 mol SiO₂

Moles to mass:

 molar mass SiO₂: 28.09 + 2(16.00) = 60.09 g/mol

 .706 mol SiO₂ x 60.09g/mol = 42.44 g SiO₂

Theoretical yield:

 actual/theoretical x 100

 38.2 / 42.44 = .900 = <u>90.0% yield</u>

<u>Leftover reactant for trial 1</u>

We know oxygen is the excess reactant.

Mass to moles:

 molar mass O₂ = 32.00 g/mol

 240 g O₂ x 1 mol/32.00 g = 7.5 mol O₂

We used .706 mol SiO₂, so we also used .706 mol O₂.

 7.5 - .706 = 6.8 moles left over

Moles to mass:

 6.8 mol O₂ x 32.00g/mol =<u> 217.4 g O₂</u>

<u />

<u>Percentage yield for trial 2</u>

Mass to moles:

 molar mass SiCl₄: 169.9 g/mol

 75 g SiCl₄ x 1 mol/169.9 g = .441 mol SiCl₄

Moles to moles:

 For each mole SiCl₄, we have one mol SiO₂ based on the balanced rxn.

 .441 mol SiCl₄ = .441 mol SiO₂

Moles to mass:

 molar mass SiO₂: 60.09 g/mol

 .441 mol SiO₂ x 60.09g/mol = 26.5 g SiO₂

Theoretical yield:

 actual/theoretical x 100

 25.2 / 26.5 = .950 = <u>95.0% yield</u>

Because the percentage yield of trial 2 is higher than that of trial 1, we know that the ratio of reactants in trial 2 is more efficient! We got a result closer to our theoretical yield.

DNA can be replicated through an in vivo mechanism or a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) mechanism. Match each description to the
umka2103 [35]

Complete question from other source attached

Answer:

Explanation:

Catalyzed by DNA polymerase - both. DNA polymerase catalyzes DNA replication in the cell. However, purified versions of the enzyme are also used to synthesise DNA as part of PCR reactions

involves leading strand synthesis only - PCR. In PCR, lagging strand synthesis is not carried out because the DNA is denatured (rendered single stranded). Therefore, each strand is replicated independently by leading strand synthesis

duplicates a small fragment of the genome - PCR. Usually, to carry out PCR, small sequences called primers are used that specify the region of DNA to be replicated

duplicates the entire genome - in vivo replication - when the DNA is replicated in vivo, the entire genome is replicated. This is carried out prior to cell division so that two daughter cells can each inherit a copy of the entire genome
