Which phrase justifies why the theory of evolution is a theory and not a law?

1. Describes the relationship between an organism and its environment
2. Makes accurate predictions based on only a small amount of empirical evidence
3. Explains diversity based on the principle of natural selection
4. Cannot be modified with the discovery of new evidence

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2. Makes accurate predictions based on only a small amount of empirical evidence

Explanation:

For a phrase or scientific finding to be considered a law, there has to be clear evidence and facts to support that specific finding. In the case of the evolution theory, the evidence is not clear enough to make it a law

Answer 2

Answer:

2. Makes accurate predictions based on only a small amount of empirical evidence

How many grams are in 56 L of chlorine gas?

Answers

Answer:

Since 1 L equals to 1000 microlitres, and 1 microlitre equals to 1 gram, there are 56 * 1000 = 56000 grams of chlorine gas in 56 L of chlorine gas.

Explanation:

Hope this helped!

Answer: 177.265g of Chlorine gas

Explanation:

56 L Cl2 * 1 mol Cl2 / 22.4 L Cl2 * 70.906g Cl2 / 1 mol Cl2 = 177.265 g Cl2

1) A 400g sample of alcohol (c = 2.43 J/g°C) at 16°C is mixed with 400g
of water (c = 4.19 J/g°C) at 85°C. What is the final temperature of the
mixture?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of alcohol = 400 g

Specific heat capacity of alcohol = 2.43 J/g°C

Initial temperature of alcohol = 16°C

Mass of water = 400 g

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.19 J/g°C

Initial temperature of water = 85°C

Final temperature of mixture = ?

Solution:

Equation:

m₁c₁ (T₂-T₁ ) = m₂c₂(T₂-T₁)

by putting values,

400 × 4.19  × (T₂ -  85°C) = 400 × 2.43  × (T₂ - 16°C)

1676  × (T₂ -  85°C) = 972 × (T₂ - 16°C)

How many grams of NaCl would be required
to react with 346 mL of 0.607 M AgNO3
solution?

Answers

Answer:

Mass = 12.27 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of NaCl are required = ?

Volume of AgNO₃ = 346 mL (346 mL× 1L/ 1000 mL = 0.346 L)

Molarity of AgNO₃ = 0.607 M

Solution:

Chemical equation:

NaCl  + AgNO₃     →    NaNO₃ + AgCl

Number of moles of AgNO₃:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in L

0.607 M = number of moles / 0.346 L

number of moles =  0.607 M × 0.346 L

number of moles =  0.21 mol

now we will compare the moles of NaCl and AgNO₃.

                       AgNO₃         :          NaCl        

                           1                :            1

                       0.21              :            0.21

Mass of NaCl:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.21 mol × 58.44 g/mol

Mass = 12.27 g

Diffraction is a wave property that electrons possess
- true
- false

Answers

Answer:

The given statement is "True". A further explanation is provided below.

Explanation:

Diffraction occurs mostly with general noise, with electro-magnetic radioactive material, such as visible region, x-ray, but mostly gamma rays, and with very small moving molecules, such as atomic nuclei, as well as electrons, that also have wavelike characteristics. Yet another side effect of diffraction is because there are no dramatic or rapid shadows.

Therefore this obvious response is the right one.

Why does salt sprinkled on icy roads cause the ice to melt?​

Answers

it lowers the melting point

Answer:

The actual reason that the application of salt causes ice to melt is that a solution of water and dissolved salt has a lower freezing point than pure water. When added to ice, salt first dissolves in the film of liquid water that is always present on the surface, thereby lowering its freezing point below the ices temperature. Ice in contact with salty water therefore melts, creating more liquid water, which dissolves more salt, thereby causing more ice to melt, and so on.

If 56 grams of nitrogen is mixed with 56 grams of oxygen, what is the pressure of each gas if the total
pressure is 1320 Torrs?

Answers

Answer:

pN₂ = 695 torr; pO₂ = 625 torr

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the moles of each gas

The molar mass of N₂ is 28.01 g/mol.

56 g × 1 mol/28.01 g = 2.0 mol

The molar mass of O₂ is 32.00 g/mol.

56 g × 1 mol/32.00 g = 1.8 mol

Step 2: Calculate the total number of moles

n = nO₂ + nN₂ = 1.8 mol + 2.0 mol = 3.8 mol

Step 3: Calculate the partial pressure of each gas

We will use the following expressions.

pN₂ = P × X(N₂)

pN₂ = 1320 torr × (2.0 mol/3.8 mol)

pN₂ = 695 torr

pO₂ = P × X(O₂)

pO₂ = 1320 torr × (1.8 mol/3.8 mol)

pO₂ = 625 torr

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Planck equation should be applied:

E = hv , while E is energy of proton; h is Planck constant; and v is frequency.

E = 6.6 × [tex]10^{-34}[/tex] × 4 × [tex]10^{7}[/tex]

What would this structure look like? How would the residents build it? 3. What could limit the erosion of the beach?

Answers

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Yes, elevation play a great role and has the ability to protect homes from natural disasters such as flood and tsunami etc. The residents build a hard structure of wall along the beach that would prevent a tsunami from reaching the community and also built homes at higher elevation. The residence built it with the help of government and this wall is also effective in reducing the erosion of the beach.

Answer:

1. Yes elevation does play a factor if the house was higher i feel like it wouldnt get as damaged  

2.  Yes they could build a high enough wall that it would take most of the impact away from the houses, you would build it with the thickest peice of wood that you could find and use long screws and cement the  wood into the ground.  

3. The wall will also help from erosion

If 125.0g of nitrogen is reacted with 125.0g of hydrogen, what is the theoretical yield of the reaction? What is the excess reactant? What is the limiting reactant? Show your work.

Answers

The theoretical yield of the reaction : 151.64 g

The limiting reactant :  N₂

The excess reactant : H₂

Further explanation

Reaction

N₂+3H₂⇒2NH₃

A method that can be used to find limiting reactants is to divide the number of moles of known substances by their respective coefficients(mol ratio), and the smaller become a limiting reactant

mass of N₂=125 g

mol N₂(MW=28 g/mol) :

[tex]\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}\\\\mol=\dfrac{125}{28}=4.46[/tex]

mass H₂ = 125 g

mol H₂(MW= 2 g/mol) :

[tex]\tt mol=\dfrac{125}{2}=62.5[/tex]

From the equation, mol ratio N₂ : H₂ = 1 : 3

Limiting reactant : N₂ : H₂ =

[tex]\tt \dfrac{4.46}{1}\div \dfrac{62.5}{3}=4.46\div 20.8[/tex]

N₂  : limiting reactant

H₂ : excess reactant

mol NH₃ based on limiting(N₂) (from equation N₂ : NH₃ = 1 : 2)

[tex]\tt mol~NH_3=\dfrac{2}{1}\times 4.46=8.92[/tex]

mass NH₃ (MW=17 g/mol) :

[tex]\tt mass=mol\times MW\\\\mass=8.92\times 17=151.64[/tex]

Answer:

A. The functions within the ecosystem will eventually stop & everything will die off.

what is a chemical change? and what is a physical change?

Answers

In a chemical reaction, there is a change in the composition of the substances in question; in a physical change there is a difference in the appearance, smell, or simple display of a sample of matter without a change in composition.

A chemical change is a change where something new can be formed and normally can not be changed back. Examples of a chemical change are precipitates being formed, gases being formed, quick temperature change rust, bubbling, foaming, burning, etc. A physical change is a change where nothing new is formed and normally can be changed back. For example you painted a wooden block red. If you want, you can always change the color again. Nothing chemically or permanantly happened to it. More examples of a physical change are; color change, change of state, luster, shape, size, hardeness, etc.

what would you need to do to calculate the molarity of 10g of NaCl in 2kg of water?
A. convert the 10 g of NaCl to Kg of NaCl
B. Convert the 10g of NaCl to moles of NaCl
C. Convert the 2kg of water to liters of water
D. Convert the 2kg of water to moles of water

Answers

Answer:

B) we will convert the 10 g of NaCl into moles.

Explanation:

Molarity is used to describe the concentration of solution. It tells how many moles are dissolve in per litter of solution.

Formula:

Molarity = number of moles of solute / L of solution

we will convert the 10 g of NaCl into moles.

Number of moles of NaCl:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 10 g/ 58.44 gmol

Number of moles = 0.17 mol

1 Kg = 1 L

Molarity = 0.17 mol / 2 L

Molarity = 0.085 mol/L

Molarity = 0.085 M

Answer:

B. Convert the 10g of NaCl to moles of NaCl
