Answer:
Nucleic acid is an important class of macromolecules found in all cells and viruses. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) encodes the information the cell needs to make proteins.
A related type of nucleic acid, called ribonucleic acid (RNA), comes in different molecular forms that participate in protein synthesis.
We will assume that the only reactants are x and y and that the only product is xy.
Based on the law of mass conservation, mass is an isolated system that can neither be created nor destroyed.
Applying this concept to the chemical reaction, we will find that the total mass of the reactants must be equal to the total mass of the products,
therefore:
mass of x + mass of y = mass of xy
12.2 + mass of y = 78.9
mass of y = 78.9 - 12.2 = 66.7 grams
I believe the answer is true. Hope this helps.
To get the number of gold atoms, you have to divide the mass of the gold by the mass of the gold atom. It follows this simple equation
.
Let x be the number of gold atoms. Plug in the values to a calculator.
x =
Both have the same units so the unit gram(g) can be cancelled.
x then would be equal to 1.53x10^22. So there are 1.53x10^22 atoms of gold in 5 g of gold
C is the answer because he wants to know if less force is needed to pull on a slippery surface which reduces friction
