Commercial agriculture can often lead to water-quality problems in the following ways:

  • The washing of fertilizers and pesticides into water bodies from farms.

<h3>What is water quality?</h3>

Water quality refers to the state of a water body that encompasses it's physical, chemical and biological characteristics.

The water quality of a water body is crucial to its suitability for domestic or drinking purpose.

Commercial agriculture greatly affects water quality in the following ways:

  • The washing of fertilizers and pesticides into water bodies from farms.

The analysis of a hydrocarbon revealed that it was 85.7% C and 14.3% H by mass. When 1.77 g of the gas was stored in a 1.500-L f
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The formula of hydrocarbon = C_3H_6

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

% of C = 85.7

Molar mass of C = 12.0107 g/mol

% moles of C = 85.7 / 12.0107 = 7.14

% of H = 14.3

Molar mass of H = 1.00784 g/mol

% moles of H = 14.3 / 1.00784 = 14.19

Taking the simplest ratio for C and H as:

7.14 : 14.19 = 1 : 2

The empirical formula is = CH_2

Also, Given that:

Pressure = 508 Torr

Temperature = 17 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (17 + 273.15) K = 290.15 K  

Volume = 1.500 L

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 62.3637 L.torr/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

508 Torr × 1.500 L = n × 62.3637 L.torr/K.mol × 290.15 K  

⇒n = 0.0421 moles

Given that :  

Amount  = 1.77 g

Molar mass = ?

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

0.0421\ moles= \frac{1.77\ g}{Molar\ mass}

Molar mass of the hydrocarbon = 42.04 g/mol

Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.

Thus,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...

Mass from the Empirical formula = 1×12 + 2×1= 14 g/mol

Molar mass = 42.04 g/mol

So,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

42.04 = n × 14

⇒ n = 3

The osmotic pressure exerted by a solution is equal to the molarity multiplied by the absolute temperature and the gas constant
zavuch27 [327]

Answer: M = 22/ (i x28.948)

Explanation:

Pi = osmotic pressure = 22atm

T = Temperature = 353K

M = Molarity = ?

R = gas constant = 0.082atm.L/mol/K

i = van’t Hoff factor

Pi = iMRT

M= Pi /(iRT) = 22 / ( i x 0.082 x 353)

M = 22/ (i x28.948)
