Oil spills are a very serious form of pollution. They severely affect marine biodiversity and coastal ecosystems. The table show

s methods that can be used to control oil spills.
A scientist wants to design a solution to control an oil spill. This solution should decrease the impact of the oil spill on the local biodiversity of the ecosystem. The solution should also be quick and effective but have minimal negative effects on the environment. Which of the following solutions would be best for the scientist to choose?

A. allowing natural processes to occur without any human intervention
B. using mechanical methods to collect the oil in one part of the ecosystem
C. using chemical methods to break the oil into smaller droplets
D. using bioremediation to speed up existing, natural oil degradation

Define the following terms:
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

a)An endothermic reaction is any chemical reaction that absorbs heat from its environment. The absorbed energy provides the activation energy for the reaction to occur eg Melting of ice, Evaporating liquid water

   b)An Exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that involves the release of energy in the form of heat or light.eg a spark, flame, or flash), electricity , a battery), or sound , explosion heard when burning hydrogen).

c)By definition an exothermic reaction produces heat as part of it’s process. The heat generated just by being alive is an exothermic process as well. And as such we become aware of when we feel “too cold” or “too hot” and try to either adjust to the conditions we are in, or minimize them, if possible. It is not merely odd, but contrary to intelligent living, that we choose to increase our discomfort and also risk our health by intentionally increasing not only the exothermic reactions we use but also maximize them to our own detriment. In short, the increased use of inefficient exothermic reactions while inexpensive in current evaluations of financial cost are extremely expensive in terms of it’s effect upon living things, including ourselves. It is as though we are choosing our homes to not only be next to a furnace, but as close as possible to the process.

Which type of society survives mainly by foraging for food?
Dennis_Churaev [7]
The appropriate answer is a. HUNTER-GATHERER. Hunter-gatherer societies are nomadic and they forage for edible plants, bean, fruits and nuts. They also hunt wild game for food. Early humans in the Neolithic period practiced this way of life. 
Agrarian societies thrive on agriculture which they depend on for sustainable and for trade. Animals and plants are domesticated and so people can settle and build a society. Pastoral agriculture is a semi-nomadic lifestyle where the society is centered around keeping herds of grazing animals. Industrial societies focus on manufacturing and this is the backbone of the society.

What isotope is the product of the alpha (*2He) nuclear decay of Radon-222 (222U)?
NikAS [45]

Answer:

ⁿₐX => ²¹⁸₈₄Po

Explanation:

Let ⁿₐX be the isotope.

Thus, the equation can be written as follow:

²²²₈₆Rn —> ⁴₂α + ⁿₐX

Next, we shall determine the value of 'n' and 'a'. This can be obtained as follow:

222 = 4 + n

Collect like terms

222 – 4 = n

218 = n

Thus,

n = 218

86 = 2 + a

Collect like terms

86 – 2 = a

84 = a

Thus,

a = 84

ⁿₐX => ²¹⁸₈₄Po

²²²₈₆Rn —> ⁴₂α + ⁿₐX

²²²₈₆Rn —> ⁴₂α + ²¹⁸₈₄Po

How many Joules must be removed to condense 150.0g of steam at 100.0 degrees Celsius to water at 100.0 degrees celcius
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

339kJ

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of steam  = 150g  = 0.15kg

Initial temperature of steam  = 100°C

Final temperature of water  = 100°C  

Unknown:

Quantity of heat that must be removed to condense the steam = ?

Solution:

The heat involved here is a latent heat because there is no change temperature. The process is just a phase change.

  H  = mL

m is the mass

L is the latent heat of vaporization  = 2,260 kJ/kg

Insert the parameters and solve;

 H = 0.15kg x 2,260 kJ/kg

 H  = 339kJ
