1.Natural selection is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype. It is a key mechanism of evolution, the change in the heritable traits characteristic of a population over generations.
2.Because predators were able to spot the light moths more easily, the dark moths were more likely to survive and reproduce. ... The peppered moth case is an example of natural selection. In this case, changes in the environment caused changes in the characteristics that were most beneficial for survival

Which sediments are carried by suspension?
Answer:
Sand and silt can be carried in suspension.
Explanation:
For example, sand and silt can be carried in suspension in river water and on reaching the sea bed deposited by sedimentation; if buried, they may eventually become sandstone and siltstone (sedimentary rocks) through lithification.
What is a reducing agent?
Answer: Its an element or compound that loses (or "donates") an electron to an electron recipient (oxidizing agent) in a redox chemical reaction.
CREDIT: Wikipedia
Answer:A reducing agent typically is in one of its lower possible oxidation states and is known as the electron donor.
Example: Examples of reducing agents include the earth metals, formic acid, oxalic acid, and sulfite compounds.

Albino trees exist in nature, but they’re rare. These trees contain a gene mutation that causes them to lack chlorophyll, so their leaves are white. In California, albino redwood trees are parasites. They survive off the energy from nearby redwood trees. Why do you think they need to use energy from other trees to survive?
Answer:
They need to use energy from other tress to survive so that they can do basic functions, like absorbing nutrients from the ground, and growing back leaves. They don't have chlorophyll, so they need that energy to do the functions I mentioned above.
Explanation: Hope this helps!
Answer:
Trees need chlorophyll to make energy. Because albino trees don’t have chlorophyll, they can’t create their own energy. So, they must take energy from other trees to survive.

A reaction is first order with respect to reactant A and second order with respect to reactant B. Starting with [A] = 0.175 M and [B] = 0.00250 M, the reaction rate is 2.83 x 10−5 M.S−1. What is the rate constant k? Show your work.
Answer:
[tex]k=25.9M^{-2}s^{-1}[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, since rate laws are written by considering the rate constant, concentration and specific orders of reaction of the concentration of the species contributing to the rate of reaction, we write:
[tex]r=k[A][B]^2[/tex]
Since it is first-order with respect to reactant A and second-order with respect to reactant B. In such a way, given the rate and concentrations of both A and B, the involved rate constant k turns out to be:
[tex]k=\frac{r}{[A][B]^2} \\\\k=\frac{2.83x10^{-5}M/s}{(0.175M)(0.00250M)^2}\\\\k=25.9M^{-2}s^{-1}[/tex]

A basketball inflated to a pressure of 2.25 atm is increased in temperature from 275 K to 317 K.What will be the new pressure, in torr, if the volume remains constant?
Answer:
[tex]P_2=1971.2torr[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, by recalling the Gay-Lussac's gas law, as a directly proportional relationship between pressure and temperature, we can write:
[tex]\frac{P_2}{T_2} =\frac{P_1}{T_1}[/tex]
Thus, by solving for the required final pressure, in atmospheres first, we solve for P2 as follows:
[tex]P_2 =\frac{P_1T_2}{T_1}\\\\P_2=\frac{2.25atm*317K}{275K}\\\\P_2=2.59atm[/tex]
Which in Torricelli is:
[tex]P_2=2.59atm *\frac{760torr}{1atm}\\\\P_2=1971.2torr[/tex]
Best regards!

Describe the composition of a molecular compound. What are two major characteristics of molecular compounds?
Answer:
A molecular compound is composed of two or more non metallic elements that are held together by covalent bonds.
The two major characteristics of molecular compounds are;
1.) They are held by covalent bonds
2.) They generally have poor conductivity
Explanation:
A molecular compound is one where two or more molecules come together to form a compound. Unlike ionic compounds that combine by the transfer of electrons, molecular compounds form by sharing electrons. The pairing of the electrons is what holds the molecules together and is known as covalent bonding.
A molecular compound has various characteristics, some of which are;
- Generally low melting and boiling points
- Soft solid forms
- Low enthalpy of fusion and vaporization.
But the two major characteristics of molecular compounds are;
1.) They are held together by covalent bonds.
The elements in a molecular compound share their electrons by having their atoms bond chemically to each other.
2.) They generally have poor conductivity
Molecular compounds do not conduct electricity and heat properly. Because they are formed by sharing electrons, they usually have no free electrons left to conduct electricity.

In at least 4 complete sentences, describe the similarities and differences between Avogadro's Law and Charles' Law.
answer
Avogadro's law states that, at constant temperature and pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles present. In other words, equal volumes of gases at the same pressure and temperature contain the same number of molecules - this is true regardless of their physical properties or chemical nature.
This number of molecules is

Describe the difference between a flask, beaker, and graduated cylinder.
How does the purpose of each differ?
Answer:
Both graduated cylinders and beakers are pieces of laboratory glassware that have a specific function. Graduated cylinders typically are more accurate at reading the volumes of the liquid inside. Beakers are better for stirring and mixing liquids.
Flasks are notable for their unique shape: a rounded vessel and a cylindrical neck. The main differing characteristic between a flask and a beaker is that beakers have straight sides, rather than slanted sides like a flask. Beakers are mainly for measuring and transporting liquids from one site to the next.

The fictional element “Nt” contains atoms with two valence electrons. Which type of intermolecular force is most likely responsible for the properties of NtF2?
O dipole-dipole forces
O ion-ion forces
O hydrogen bonding
O dispersion forces
PLEASE HELP
A student labels two 250 milliliter beakers with the letters A and B. She puts 100 milliliters of water in each of them. She adds some salt to beaker A and stirs until the salt dissolves completely. Then she adds another 50 milliliters of water to beaker A. She adds more salt to beaker B, and the salt in beaker B doesn't completely dissolve in the water even after much stirring. The solution in beaker A is The solution In beaker B is
Answer:
Solution B is saturated and solution A is unsaturated
Explanation:
Saturated solution contains the maximum concentration of a solute dissolved in the solvent (usually water) and if extra solute is added to saturated solution, that solute will not dissolve.
Unsaturated solution means that more of a substance can be dissolved (in this example salt).
Why does photosynthesis require 6 molecules of carbon dioxide and 6 molecules of water to make 1 molecule of glucose

1. How many grams are in 1.7 x 10^23 particles of Cl2?
2. How many moles are in 3.28 x 10^23 atoms of NaCl? *
3. If I were to determine how many liters 26 grams of water is, what type of conversion would this be? *
A Mass --> Moles --> Particles
B Mass --> Moles --> Volume
C Volume --> Mass --> Moles
D Moles --> Mass --> Volume
Answer: 1. 20.0 grams
2. 0.272 moles
3. B) Mass --> Moles --> Volume
Explanation:
According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to molecular mass and contains avogadro's number [tex]6.023\times 10^{23}[/tex] of particles.
To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:
[tex]\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given molecules}}{\text{Avogadros number}}[/tex] or
[tex]\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}[/tex] or
Putting in the values we get:
1. [tex]\text{Number of moles of} Cl_2=\frac{1.7\times 10^{23}}{6.023\times 10^{23}}=0.282moles[/tex]
Mass of [tex]Cl_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.282mol\times 71g/mol=20.0g[/tex]
2. [tex]\text{Number of moles of NaCl}=\frac{3.28\times 10^{23}}{2\times 6.023\times 10^{23}}=0.272moles[/tex]
3. [tex]\text{Number of moles of water}=\frac{26g}{18g/mol}=1.44moles[/tex]
Volume of water =[tex]moles\times {\text {Molar volume}}=1.44mol\times 22.4L/mol=32.4L[/tex]
