Why it is important for humans to conserve freshwater?

Chemistry
1 answer:
aniked [119]1 year ago

Answer:

Conserving water can help alleviate the effects of water shortages in any given community. Water use drains other resources. Using in-house water resources requires energy to deliver the water to your home. This energy-use increases when you use hot water since a lot of energy goes into heating.

Explain why the several different types of microscopes are all necessary.
givi [52]
The different types of microscopes are all necessary because not all experiments require the same level of magnification. For dissections low magnification is sufficient, so a dissecting microscope works very well, while for viewing single cells the 1000 fold magnification of a compound light microscope is more accurate.

PLEASE HELP!?!.!,! What are the products of the combustion of a hydrocarbon?
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

carbon dioxide and water

Explanation:

Example: Combustion of Methane (CH₄(g))

CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) => CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)**

____________________

Note: The combustion of any hydrocarbon produces CO₂ & H₂O. That is,

Ethane (C₂H₆) + O₂ => CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

Propane (C₃H₈) + O₂ => CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

Butane (C₄H₁₀) + O₂ => CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

The issue remaining is to balance the reaction equation. For these type equation balance Carbon 1st, then Hydrogen and finish with Oxygen. Balancing in this order leaves Oxygen which can be balanced using fractions. If problem requires lowest whole number ratios of elements, simply multiply entire equation by 2 to get standard equation*

______________________

*Standard Equation is defined as the smallest whole number ratios of elements. The 'standard equation' is significant in that it is assumed to be at STP conditions; i.e., 0⁰C (=273K) & 1.0 Atmosphere pressure.

  • Ethane (C₂H₆) + 7/2O₂(g) => 2CO₂(g) + 3H₂O(g)

    => 2C₂H₆ + 7O₂(g) => 4CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)  <= Standard Form of Rxn

  • Propane (C₃H₈) + 5O₂(g) => 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(g) <= Standard Form of Rxn (no need to balance with the '2' multiple)
  • Butane (C₄H₁₀) + 13/2O₂ => 4CO₂(g) + 5H₂O(g)

    => 2C₃H₈ + 13O₂(g) => 4CO₂(g) + 5H₂O(g) <= Standard Form of Rxn

______________________

**Also, note that water, H₂O(g), is listed as a gas. In some cases it will be listed as a liquid, H₂O(l).

A sample weighing 3.110 g is a mixture of Fe 2 O 3 (molar mass = 159.69 g/mol) and Al 2 O 3 (molar mass = 101.96 g/mol). When he
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The mass fraction of ferric oxide in the original sample :\frac{723}{3110}

Explanation:

Mass of the mixture = 3.110 g

Mass of Fe_2O_3=x

Mass of Al_2O_3=y

After heating the mixture it allowed to react with hydrogen gas in which all the ferric oxide reacted to form metallic iron and water vapors where as aluminum oxide did not react.

Fe_2O_3(s)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2Fe(s)+3H_2O(g)

Mass of mixture left after all the ferric oxide has reacted = 2.387 g

Mass of mixture left after all the ferric oxide has reacted = y

x=3.110 g- y=3.110 g - 2.387 g = 0.723 g

The mass fraction of ferric oxide in the original sample :

\frac{0.723 g}{3.110 g}=\frac{723}{3110}

Match the following aqueous solutions with the appropriate letter from the column on the right.1. 0.19 m AgNO3 2. 0.17 m CrSO4 3
vichka [17]

Answer:

0.13 m of Mn(NO_3)_2 → Highest boiling point

0.19 m of AgNO_3 → Second  Highest boiling point

0.17 m of CrSO_4 → Third highest boiling point

0.31 m Sucrose (nonelectrolyte)  → Lowest boiling point

Explanation:

Elevation in boiling is given by :

\Delta T_b=i\times k_b\times m

Where :

i = van't Hoff factor

k_b= Molal Elevation constant of solvent

m = molaity of the solution

1) 0.19 m of AgNO_3

AgNO_3\rightarrow Ag^++NO_3^{-}

i = 2 (electrolyte)

Molality of the solution = 0.19

Elevation is boiling point of solution:

\Delta T_b=2\times k_b\times 0.19 m

\Delta T_b=0.38 m\times k_b

2) 0.17 m of CrSO_4

CrSO_4\rightarrow Cr^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}

i = 2 (electrolyte)

Molality of the solution = 0.17

Elevation is boiling point solution :

\Delta T_b=2\times k_b\times 0.17 m

\Delta T_b=0.34 m\times k_b

3) 0.13 m of Mn(NO_3)_2

Mn(NO_3)_2\rightarrow Mn^{2+}+2NO_3^{-}

i = 3 (electrolyte)

Molality of the solution = 0.13

Elevation is boiling point solution :

\Delta T_b=3\times k_b\times 0.13 m

\Delta T_b=0.39 m\times k_b

4) 0.31 m Sucrose (nonelectrolyte)

i = 1 ( non electrolyte)

Molality of the solution = 0.31 m

Elevation is boiling point solution :

\Delta T_b=1\times k_b\times 0.31 m

\Delta T_b=0.31 m\times k_b

Higher the value of elevation in temperature higher will be the boiling point of the solution .

The decreasing order of solution from highest boiling point to lowest boiling point is :

0.39 m\times k_b>0.38 m\times k_b>0.34 m\times k_b>0.31 m\times k_b

0.13 m of Mn(NO_3)_2 → Highest boiling point

0.19 m of AgNO_3 → Second  Highest boiling point

0.17 m of CrSO_4 → Third highest boiling point

0.31 m Sucrose (nonelectrolyte)  → Lowest boiling point
