1. How many zebra mussels were there in the Hudson River within a year of their first appearance? A. 500 billion B. 500 million

C. 500 thousand D. 500
2. This text explains a cause-and-effect pattern in the Hudson River ecosystem that began with the zebra mussel invasion. What effect did the zebra mussels have on the phytoplankton in the Hudson River? A. The number of phytoplankton in the river rose by a little. B. The number of phytoplankton in the river fell by a little. C. The number of phytoplankton in the river rose by a lot. D. The number of phytoplankton in the river fell by a lot.
3. Phytoplankton are one of the most important parts of the food web in the Hudson River. What evidence supports this conclusion? A. The population of phytoplankton dropped sharply soon after zebra mussels invaded the river. B. The decrease in phytoplankton caused a decrease in the river's zooplankton, fish, and native mussel populations. C. The decrease in phytoplankton meant that the river's turbidity, or cloudiness, decreased. D. Zebra mussels caused oxygen levels in the river to drop, partly by removing the phytoplankton that produce oxygen.
4. Which population was helped by the invasion of the zebra mussels? A. phytoplankton B. zooplankton C. water celery D. native mussels
5. What is the main idea of this text? A. In the years right after the invasion, zebra mussels evolved and adapted to the Hudson River ecosystem. B. In the years right after the invasion, zebra mussels caused a number of changes in the Hudson River ecosystem and food web. C. In the years right after the invasion, zebra mussels did not have a major impact on the Hudson River ecosystem or food web. D. At first, zebra mussels did not have any impact on the Hudson River ecosystem, but their impact increased over time.
6. Read these sentences from the text. "In the years right after the invasion, phytoplankton fell by 80 percent. Zooplankton (which eat phytoplankton) declined by half. And the smallest zooplankton (called microzooplankton), fell by about 90 percent." Based on these sentences, what does the word "decline" most nearly mean? A. to drop in number B. to fall over C. to increase D. to stay the same
7. Choose the answer that best completes the sentence. With far less phytoplankton, the water got clearer. ______, rooted aquatic plants such as water celery increased by up to 40 percent. A. In contrast B. However C. As a result D. Similarly
8. What are two populations that decreased as an immediate result of the zebra mussel invasion?
9. One direct effect of the zebra mussel invasion was a decrease in the cloudiness of the water. How did this affect species in the Hudson River ecosystem?
10. Once scientists understood the short-term impact of the zebra mussel invasion, they started to wonder about the invasion's long-term impact on the ecosystem. Why might the Hudson River ecosystem look different many years after the zebra mussel invasion than it did just a few years after the invasion? Use evidence from the text to support your answer.

A chemical test has determined the concentration of a solution of an unknown substance to be 2.41 M. a 100.0 mL volume of the so
Oksana_A [137]

Answer : The molar mass of unknown substance is, 39.7 g/mol

Explanation : Given,

Mass of unknown substance = 9.56 g

Volume of solution = 100.0 mL

Molarity = 2.41 M

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in one liter of volume of solution.

Formula used :

\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{Mass of unknown substance}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of unknown substance}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

2.41M=\frac{9.56g\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of unknown substance}\times 100.0mL}

\text{Molar mass of unknown substance}=39.7g/mol

Therefore, the molar mass of unknown substance is, 39.7 g/mol

A tank of 0.1m3 volume contains air at 25∘C and 101.33 kPa. The tank is connected to a compressed-air line which supplies air at
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Amount of Energy = 23,467.9278J

Explanation:

Given

Cv = 5/2R

Cp = 7/2R wjere R = Boltzmann constant = 8.314

The energy balance in the tank is given as

∆U = Q + W

According to the first law of thermodynamics

In the question, it can be observed that the volume of the reactor is unaltered

So, dV = W = 0.

The Internal energy to keep the tank's constant temperature is given as

∆U = Cv((45°C) - (25°C))

∆U = Cv((45 + 273) - (25 + 273))

∆U = Cv(20)

∆U = 5/2 * 8.314 * 20

∆U = 415.7 J/mol

Before calculating the heat loss of the tank, we must first calculate the amount of moles of gas that entered the tank where P1 = 101.33 kPa

The Initial mole is calculated as

(P * V)/(R * T)

Where P = P1 = 101.33kPa = 101330Pa

V = Volume of Tank = 0.1m³

R = 8.314J/molK

T = Initial Temperature = 25 + 273 = 298K

So, n = (101330 * 0.1)/(8.314*298)

n = 4.089891232222

n = 4.089

Then we Calculate the final moles at P2 = 1500kPa = 1500000Pa

V = Volume of Tank = 0.1m³

R = 8.314J/molK

T = Initial Temperature = 25 + 273 = 298K

n = (1500000 * 0.1)/(8.314*298)

n = 60.54314465936812

n = 60.543

So, tue moles that entered the tank is ∆n

∆n = 60.543 - 4.089

∆n = 56.454

Amount of Energy is then calculated as:(∆n)(U)

Q = 415.7 * 56.454

Q = 23,467.9278J

What is the average atomic mass of the element?
morpeh [17]

The average atomic mass of element X is 14.007 u.

The average atomic mass of X is the <em>weighted average</em> of the atomic masses of its isotopes.

We multiply the atomic mass of each isotope by a number representing its <em>relative importance</em> (i.e., its % abundance).

Thus,  

0.996 36 × 14.003 u =13.952 03 u

0.003 64 × 15.000 u = <u>0.054 60 u</u>

__________TOTAL = 14.007     u
