You're conducting an experiment to determine the effect of different wavelengths of light on the absorption of carbon dioxide as an indicator of the rate of photosynthesis in aquatic ecosystems. If the rate of photosynthesis increases, the amount of carbon dioxide in the environment will decrease, and vice versa. Small aquatic plants are placed into three containers of water mixed with carbon dioxide. Container A is placed under normal sunlight, B under green light, and C under red light. The containers are observed for a 24-hour period. Carbon dioxide absorption is an appropriate indicator of photosynthesis because
The process of formation of sugar or carbohydrate by plants is known as photosynthesis.
It occurs in presence of light so the term "photo"
Here the plant uses carbon dioxide and it reacts with water to given glucose
The general reaction will be
6CO2(g) + 6H2O(g) + sunlight ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Thus the carbon dioxide is being converted to glucose
Higher the rate of absorption of carbon dioxide by plant more the rate of formation of glucose or more the rate of photosynthesis by the plant
The formation of glucose from carbon dioxide is a metabolic pathway which is a cycle known as Calvin cycle. Here actually the carbon is fixed into useful carbohydrates and this pathway is light independent.
Hence
Carbon dioxide absorption is an appropriate indicator of photosynthesis because the main part of photosynthesis if fixation of carbon dioxide into useful carbohydrates by Calvin cycle (occurs in chloroplast of plant cells)
When 25.0 grams of water are cooled from 20.0 degrees Celsius to 10.0 degrees Celsius the number of joules of heat energy released is?
Heat energy released here
Q = mass x specific heat capacity of water x deltaT
= 25.0 x 4.184 x (-10.0)
= - 1046 Joules
1046 Joules of heat energy is released in this process.
Answer: The amount of heat released is -1046 J
Explanation:
To calculate the amount of heat released, we use the equation:
[tex]q=mc\Delta T[/tex]
where,
q = heat released = ?
m = mass of water = 25.0 g
c = specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g.°C
[tex]\Delta T[/tex] = change in temperature = [tex]T_2-T_1=(10.0-20.0)^oC=-10.0^oC[/tex]
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]q=25.0g\times 4.184J/g.^oC\times (-10.0^oC)\\\\q=-1046J[/tex]
Hence, the amount of heat released is -1046 J

B) The freedom of electrons in the metallic bonding. C) Attractive forces within the copper alloyed wire. D) A high degree of crystallinity in the bulk structure.
B. the freedom of electrons in the metallic bonding
Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Copper is known as the best conductor of heat and electricity. This is because in copper there is availability of free electrons.
And, as it is known that electricity is the flow of electrons. This means that since copper metal contains a number of free electrons. Hence, it can easily conduct electricity.
Electronic configuration of copper is [tex][Ar]4s1 3d^{10}[/tex]
Thus, we can conclude that freedom of electrons in the metallic bonding at molecular level property allows copper to be an ideal material to be used in electrical wiring.
Which statement correctly relates two substances from this reaction?
H2CO3 + H2O ⇌ H3O+ + HCO3−
A.
HCO3− is the conjugate acid of H2CO3.
B.
H2O is the conjugate base of H2CO3.
C.
H3O+ is the conjugate acid of H2O.
D.
H2CO3 is the conjugate base of H3O+
We have to know which two substances are related correctly.
The correct answer is: (C) H₃O⁺ is the conjugate acid of H₂O.
In an acid-base reaction, an acid reacts with a base and gives a conjugate base and conjugate acid. The reaction is shown below:
Acid₁ + Base₂ ⇄ Conjugate Base₁ + Conjugate Acid₂
In the reaction H₂CO₃ + H₂O ⇌ H₃O⁺ + HCO₃⁻, H₂CO₃ is an acid because it releases H⁺ ion and converts to HCO₃⁻. Here HCO₃⁻ is the conjugate base of H₂CO₃ ( according Arrhenius theory).
H₂O accepts H⁺ ion and is converted to H₃O⁺ , thus H₂O behaves as Bronsted base. So, H₃O⁺ is the conjugate acid of Bronsted base H₂O.
Hence, the correct answer is: (C) H₃O⁺ is the conjugate acid of H₂O.
Answer:
The correct answer is C.) H30+ is the conjugate acid of H20

which of the following is not true about limiting and excess reagents?
a. the amount of product obtained is determined by the limiting reagent.
b. a balanced equation is necessary to determine which reactant is limiting reagent.
c. some of the excess reagent is left over after the reaction is complete.
d. the reactant that was the smallest given mass is the limiting reagent.
Answer : The incorrect option is, (d) The reactant that was the smallest given mass is the limiting reagent.
Explanation :
Limiting reagent : It is the reagent that is completely consumed in the chemical reaction when the chemical reaction is complete. No amount is left after the reaction is complete. The amount of product obtained is determined by the limiting reagent. A balanced equation is necessary to determine which reactant is limiting reagent.
Excess reagent : It is the reagent that are not completely consumed in the chemical reaction. That means the reagent is in excess amount. Some amount of the excess reagent is left over after the reaction is complete.
From this we conclude that the options, A, B and C are correct. While the option D is incorrect.
Option D is incorrect because it is not necessary the reactant that was the smallest given mass is the limiting reagent but it is judge by the number of moles present in the reaction.
Hence, the incorrect option is, (d)
Answer: d. the reactant that was the smallest given mass is the limiting reagent.
How are natural polymers and synthetic polymers similar?
A) Both are made up of phosphates and organic bases
B) Both serve important roles in producing amino acids
C) Both are made up of monomers that are linked by covalent bonds
Answer: C) Both are made up of monomers that are linked by covalent bonds
Explanation: Polymers are large molecules which are formed by combination of small repeating units called as monomers.
Natural polymers are found in nature such as cellulose whereas synthetic polymers are synthesized in laboratories such as Nylon 6,6.
All the polymers, whether natural or synthetic are made up of monomers and are joined by covalent bonds.
Both natural and synthetic polymers consist of monomers that are linked together by covalent bonds, with natural polymers having a wider variety of monomers like amino acids, and synthetic polymers often containing fewer types of monomers. Option C is correct .
Natural polymers and synthetic polymers are similar in that they are both made up of monomers linked together by covalent bonds. Examples of natural polymers include proteins and DNA, which are fundamental to biological structure and function. Synthetic polymers, on the other hand, include plastics like polystyrene. Option C is correct .
The monomers in natural polymers can vary greatly; there are 20 different amino acids that can combine in a multitude of sequences to form different proteins. Synthetic polymers typically feature fewer types of monomers, but the process of polymerization, which results in the formation of large molecules through the joining of these monomers, is a common characteristic shared by both natural and synthetic polymers.
Proteins are significant examples of natural polymers, functioning as enzymes that catalyze biological reactions. While synthetic polymers do not serve in biological catalysis, their repeating monomer units confer them with unique physical properties making them valuable in a variety of applications.

Move the arrows up and down to arrange the following types of attractions between molecules in order from strongest (on top) to weakest (bottom): (2 points)
Move down Hydrogen forces
Move down Move up Ionic forces
Move down Move up Van der Waals forces
Move up Covalent forces
Answer is: from strongest to weakest attractions: ionic forces, covalent forces, hydrogen forces, Van der Waals forces.
Ionic bond is the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions; ionic bond is very strong.
For example, sodium chloride (NaCl) has ionic bond between sodim cation and chlorine anion.
Covalent bond is bond between nonmetals. Hydrogen and oxygen are nonmetals.
For example, in water, atoms of hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) are connected by polar covalent bonds.
Hydrogen bond is an electrostatic attraction between two polar groups that occurs when a hydrogen atom (H), covalently bound to a highly electronegative atom such as flourine (F), oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N) atoms.
For example, because of hydrogen bonds, water has higher melting and boiling temperatures than H₂S.
There are two kinds of Van der Waals forces: weak London dispersion forces and stronger dipole-dipole forces.

Sulfuric acid is essential to dozens of important industries from steelmaking to plastics and pharmaceuticals. More sulfuric acid is made than any other industrial chemical, and world production exceeds 2.0 x 10 kg per year. The first step in the synthesis of sulfuric acid is usually burning solid sulfur to make sulfur dioxide gas. Suppose an engineer studying this reaction introduces 4.4 kg of solid sulfur and 6.90 atm of oxygen gas at 950. °C into an evacuated 50.0 L tank. The engineer believes K-0.71 for the reaction at this temperature. Calculate the mass of solid sulfur he expects to be consumed when the reaction reaches equilibrium. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. Note for advanced students: the engineer may be mistaken in his belief about the value of Kp, and the consumption of sulfur you calculate may not be what he actually observes.
Given:
K = 0.71 = Kp
The reaction of sulphur with oxygen is
S(s) + O2(g) ---> SO2(g)
initial Pressure 6.90 0
Change -x +x
Equilibrium 6.90-x x
Kp = pSO2 / pO2 = 0.71 = x / (6.90-x)
4.899 - 0.71x = x
4.899 = 1.71x
x = 2.86 atm = pressure of SO2 formed
temperature = 950 C = 950 + 273.15 K = 1223.15 K
Volume = 50 L
Let us calculate moles of SO2 formed using ideal gas equation as
PV = nRT
R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm / mol K
putting other values
n = PV / RT = 2.86 X 50 / 1223.15 X 0.0821 = 1.42 moles
Moles of Sulphur required = 1.42 moles
Mass of sulphur required or consumed = moles X atomic mass of sulphur
mass of S = 1.42 X 32 = 45.57 grams or 0.04557 Kg of sulphur

Draw the structure of cis−jasmone, a natural product isolated from jasmine flowers, formed by treatment of alkyne a with h2 in the presence of the lindlar catalyst. click the "draw structure" button to launch the drawing utility. 1252a
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hydrogenation of an alkyne in the presence of a Lindlar catalyst produces a cis-alkene.
Thus,treatment of the acetylenic cyclopentenone with hydrogen and Lindlar catalyst gives 3-methyl-2-[(Z)-pent-2-enyl]cyclopent-2-en-1-one
(cis-jasmone).
Cis-jasmone's formation from an alkyne using H2 and the Lindlar catalyst results in a molecule with a double bond due to the catalyst's selective reduction, and the cis configuration indicating the two added hydrogen atoms are on the same side of the molecule. This structure can be drawn using a molecular drawing utility.
The structure of cis−jasmone can be determined based on its formation from an alkyne using H2 and the Lindlar catalyst. The Lindlar catalyst is a hydrogenation catalyst used to selectively hydrogenate alkynes to alkenes without further reduction to alkanes. Therefore, the operation converts a triple bond into a double bond.
Along with the cis-configuration specification, the product has the double bond on the same side.
However, you can easily draw it out using a molecular drawing utility. Start with the carbon backbone of the alkyne, and replace one of the triple bonds with a double bond. Make sure the cis configuration is represented, meaning the additional hydrogen atoms added to the carbon atoms are on the same side.

Which of the following statements is true about isotopes of the same element? Click on all that apply (1 point)
Isotopes have the same number of protons
Isotopes have the same number of electrons
Isotopes have the same number of neutrons
Isotopes have the same atomic mass
Isotopes have the same atomic number
Isotopes of the same element have identical numbers of protons and electrons (in a neutral state), and thus they share the same atomic number. They differ in the number of neutrons they possess, which leads to different atomic masses.
The question concerns isotopes of the same element. Two key characteristics of isotopes are their atomic number, which remains constant because isotopes have the same number of protons, and their varied atomic mass due to a different number of neutrons.
Isotopes have the same number of protons.
Isotopes have the same number of electrons (if the atom is in a neutral state).
Isotopes have the same atomic number.
Statements about isotopes having the same number of neutrons or the same atomic mass are incorrect; these are the properties that distinguish one isotope of an element from another.
The true statements are:
a) Isotopes have the same number of protons.
b) Isotopes have the same number of electrons.
e) Isotopes have the same atomic number.
Isotopes are variations of the same element that have the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons. This means they have different mass numbers, which is the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Here are the true statements about isotopes of the same element:
Isotopes have the same number of protons: The number of protons (atomic number) defines the element. All isotopes of an element have this same atomic number.
Isotopes have the same number of electrons: In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. Therefore, isotopes of the same element have the same number of electrons.
Isotopes have the same atomic number: Because the atomic number is defined by the number of protons, which is consistent across isotopes of an element, the atomic number remains the same.

A. Strong bonds form with large atoms and weak bonds with small atoms.
B. Weak bonds require less energy to form than strong bonds.
C. Strong bonds occur with high temperature and weak bonds with low temperature.
D. Weak bonds require more energy to form than strong bonds.
Answer:
The answer is D, weak bonds require more energy to form than strong bonds.
Explanation:
The correct answer is option B: Weak bonds require less energy to form than strong bonds. This is because the strength of a chemical bond is related to the energy required to break it, not the energy required to form it.
Explanation:The correct statement regarding the strength of chemical bonds is option B: Weak bonds require less energy to form than strong bonds. The strength of a chemical bond is related to the energy required to break it, not the size of the atoms, temperature, or energy required to form it. A strong bond has a high bond energy because it requires a great deal of energy to break. Conversely, a weak bond, which requires relatively little energy to break, has a low bond energy. This suggests that strong bonds do indeed require more energy to form than weak bonds.

Which of the following statements is true?
A. The melting and freezing points of a substance are the same.
B. The melting and boiling points of a substance are the same.
C. The freezing and boiling points of a substance are the same.
D. The heat of fusion and the heat of vaporization for a substance are the same.
The answer is A. The melting and freezing points of a substance are the same. The only difference between melting and freezing is the order in which they occur. Melting starts with a solid and changes into a liquid. Freezing starts with a liquid and changes into a solid. Think of water. At 0 degrees celsius and if the temperature was decreasing before, it would freeze. At 0 degrees celsius and the temperature was increasing before, it would melt. Look at a heating/cooling curve, the straight lines are the transition points. On a heating curve, the first straight line is for melting. On a cooling curve, the last straight line is for freezing. They both occur at the same temperature.
Hope this helped!
The melting and freezing points of a substance are the same (A), which is shown by water's equilibrium at 0°C, where ice melts and liquid water freezes at the same temperature. The heat of fusion and heat of vaporization are unique and differ for each substance. Option A is correct .
The correct statement regarding the phase transitions of a substance is option A. The melting and freezing points of a substance are the same. This fact can be exemplified with water (H₂O), which has the same melting point and freezing point at 0°C. This temperature represents the equilibrium in which solid water is in equilibrium with its liquid state, as represented by the following equilibrium equation:
H₂O (s) ⇔ H₂O (l)
At this temperature, adding heat will cause the solid to melt and become liquid, while removing heat will result in the liquid freezing and becoming solid. In contrast, the boiling point of water is 100°C, which is where liquid water comes into equilibrium with water vapor, its gaseous state.
Moreover, the heat of fusion and heat of vaporization are unique to each substance and refer to the amount of energy needed to change a substance from solid to liquid and liquid to gas, respectively. These values are not typically the same for a given substance.

B) Nonmetal carbon loses a valence electron and chlorine metal gains a valence electron to form an ionic bond. C) Carbon and chlorine are nonmetals and they shares their valence electrons to become ions and form ionic bonds. D) Chlorine metal loses a valence electron to become a cation and nonmetal carbon gains a valence electron to become an anion forming a covalent bond.
Answer: A) Nonmetal carbon shares valence electrons with each nonmetal chlorine forming four covalent bonds.
Explanation: Covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons between atoms.
Ionic bond is formed by transfer of electrons between atoms.
Carbon with atomic no 6 and has configuration of [tex]1s^22s^22p^2[/tex]. Carbon has 4 valence electrons. It can only share electrons as it is difficult to gain or lose 4 electrons to complete it's octet.
Chlorine with atomic no 17 has configuration of [tex]1s^22s^22p^3s^23p^5[/tex]. It has 7 valence electrons and need one electron to complete its octet.
Thus carbon will share 4 electrons, one each with four chlorine atoms to form carbon tetra chloride.
