What is an advantage of using an energy pyramid to describe the flow of energy in an ecosystem?

Chemistry
1 answer:
fredd [130]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A pyramid of energy represents how much energy, initially from the sun, is retained or stored in the form of new biomass at each trophic level in an ecosystem. Typically, about 10% of the energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next, thus preventing a large number of trophic levels.

Calculate the volume of a sample of mercury with a density of 14.6 g/mL and a mass of 1.00 g. The answer is assumed to be in mL.
Darya [45]

Answer:

0.0685 mL

Explanation:

To find the volume of the sample, divide the mass by the density.

(1.00 g)/(14.6 g/mL) = 0.0685 mL

20 mL of 80°C water is mixed with 20 mL of 0°C water in a perfect calorimeter. What is the final temperature?
dedylja [7]
To calculate for the final temperature, we need to remember that the heat rejected should be equal to the absorbed by the other system. We calculate as follows:

Q1 = Q2
(mCΔT)1 = (mCΔT)2

We can cancel m assuming the two systems are equal in mass. Also, we cancel C since they are the same system. This leaves us,

 (ΔT)1 = (ΔT)2
(T - 80) = (0 - T)
T = 40°C

!: (a) 20 cm: 80
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

THE LENGTH OF THE AIR COLUMN IS 9.5 CM

Explanation:

Taking the atmospheric pressure to be 760 mmHg;

When the capillary tube is held horizontally, the pressure of the tube is 760 mmHg

when the capillary tube is held vertically, the pressure increases by 4 cm = 40 mm

The new pressure of the tube is hence, 760 + 40 mmHg = 800 mmHg

Using the pressure forlmula;

P1 V1 = P2 V2

P1 A1 L1 = P2 A2 L2

where A1 and A2 is the area of the capillary tube and it is equal, it cancels out.

P1 l1 = P2 l2

l2 = P1 l1 / P2

l2 = 760 * 10 / 800

l2 = 9.5 cm

The length of the air in the tube is 9.5 cm.

Help needed Assignment is due Justify that H2SO4 is Arrhenius acid and KOH is Arrhenius base.
irakobra [83]

Answer:

<u><em>Arrhenius Acid:</em></u>

According to Arrhenius concept, Acids are proton donors.

Since H₂SO₄ have a proton (H⁺ ion) and it can donate it to be made a sulphate ion, So it is an Arrhenius acid.

See the following reaction =>

<u><em>H₂SO₄ + H₂O => HSO₄ + H₃O⁺</em></u>

<u><em>Arrhenius Base:</em></u>

An Arrhenius base is a a proton acceptor.

KOH accepts the proton to to made to KOH₂ and a proton acceptor.

See the following reaction =>

<u><em>KOH + H₂o => KOH₂ + OH⁻</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>
