The genetic diversity in the species serves as the genes in which they have that speaks of their features that they acquire. This also helps the population or group of species to be able to overcome the changes in the environment they live in. In the following, the correct answer that could cause a decline in genetic diversity in a population is letter D, decreasing competition. It is because in our world, everything is connected. From how the preys and predators compete for their way to survive, just like the genetic diversity, if we remove or decrease competition, then there won’t be any balance.

1. for the first question, we must find the mass of the anhydrous salt, mgso₄. the molar mass for mgso₄·7h₂o is 246.47 g/mol, while that of mgso₄ is 120.37 g/mol.7.834 g mgso₄·7h₂o * 1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o/246.47 g * 1 mol mgso₄/1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o * 20.37 g mgso₄/mol = 0.647 g mgso₄

2. mass of water = mass of sample - mass of anhydrous salemass of water = 7.834 - 0.647 = 7.19 gpercent water in hydrate = 7.19/7.834 * 100 = 91.74%

Answer from: Quest

Note that 2 mol dm⁻³ = 2 mol/(dm³)outline: we're given the concentration of hcl, which is 2 mol dm⁻³ (cubic meters in the denominator can represent volume, so i know this is concentration). we're an amount of calcium carbonate caco₃, which is 5 g. we're presented with a chemical equation which includes caco₃ and hcl. we are told to find the volume of hcl. from what we see so far, this seems to be a stoichiometry problem. we'll have to use the given information about calcium carbonate to find the amount of moles of hcl needed to fully react with calcium carbonate. then we'll have information about the moles of hcl and the concentration of hcl; that will be enough to figure out volume according to the formula concentration = moles / volume.======all the answer choices are not in dm.convert the given concentration so that it uses cm⁻³.we can use conversion factors. we have to cube our conversion factors so that dimensional analysis works.we can convert to meters first, using the fact that 10 dm = 1 m ⇔ 10³ dm³ = 1 m³then we use the fact that 10² cm = 1 m ⇔ (10² cm)³ = (1 m)³ ⇔ 10⁶ cm³ = 1 m³so converting: $\dfrac{\text{2 mol}}{\text{dm}^{3}} \cdot \dfrac{\text{10}^3\text{ dm}^3}{\text{1 m}^3} \cdot \dfrac{\text{1 m}^3}{10^6\text{ cm}^3} \\ \\ = \dfrac{\text{2 mol}}{1} \cdot \dfrac{\text{10}^3}{1} \cdot \dfrac{1}{10^6\text{ cm}^3} \qquad \text{\footnotesize cancelling units} \\ \\ = \dfrac{2\text{ mol}}{10^3 \text{ cm}^3} \\ \\ = 0.002\text{ mol/cm}^3$ now we have to find the moles of hydrochloric acid neededfind the moles of calcium carbonate. we have to find the molar mass of calcium carbonate, caco₃, which can be found by molar mass = (mass ca) + (mass c) + 3(mass o) = 40 + 12 + 3(16) = 100 g/molconvert the given 5 g to moles: mol caco₃ = 5 g caco₃ * 1 mol/(100 g) = 0.05 mol caco₃use stoichiometry (ratios) to figure out the moles of hcl needed. ratio wise, there's 2 hcls for every caco₃, so use dimensional analysis mol hcl = mol caco₃ * (2 mol hcl) / (1 mol caco₃) = 0.05 mol hcl * 2 = 0.1 mol hcl we have 0.1 mol hcl and concentration of hcl (0.002 mol/cm³).we need to find volumesince concentration = moles / volume, rearrange to get volume = moles / concentration volume = 0.1 mol / (0.002 mol/cm³) volume = 50 cm³
