16. Draw and label the structure of DNA
C. Identical or not?
18. What are Newtons three laws? Give an example of how each works.
1st Law An object at rest will remain this way unless it is acted upon by a force. An object will
continue to move at the same speed and direction unless an unbalanced force acts upon it.
2nd Law An object will accelerate in the direction of an unbalanced force acting upon it. The
size of the acceleration depends on the mass of the object and size of the force.
19. What is the acceleration require for an 1800kg car moving with a net force of 3000N?
F = MxA
3000N = 1800kg x A
3000N/1800kg = A
1.667m/s2 = A
20. On a dry road, a car left a 40m skid mark. How fast was the car travelling if the Coefficient of
friction value was 0.7?
V = (254 x d x f)
V = (254 x 40m x 0.7)
V = 7112
V = 84.3 km/h
21. What is the location (state the period number and group number) for elements with electron
arrangements?
a. 2, 8, 3 (G 3 P 3)
b. 2, 8, 8, 2 (G 2 P 4)
22. Why do we need to balance chemical equations? Discuss in terms of the Law of Conservation of
Mass.
Since Mass cannot be created or destroyed we need to balance equations or they will be
unstable.
2 Na + 2HCl NaCl + H2
24. Explain what chromatography is used for and how it works. Provide a specific example. What is
an Rf value?
Chromatography is the science of separating mixtures based on attracting and repulsion. An example
of this is separating ink from paper. An Rf value
