2HCO3 - + Ca2+ CaCO3 + CO2 + H2O Bicarbonate (HCO3-) combines with calcium ions in the water to make calcium carbonate (CaCO3, limestone). This process can occur both within organisms such as corals or as a simple chemical reaction in the water itself.

Match each term to its description.

stepladder [879]

Based on ecological studies, the definitions below applies to the given terms:

Peak phenomena: this is when a population grows at a fast rate, then quickly drops when the resources run out
Biological surplus: this occurs when there are more organisms in a population than the ecosystem can sustain
Climax community: this is a point in an ecosystem when all populations reach a point of little or no change
Sigmoid phenomena: this is when a population increases while food and habitat are abundant and decreases as food becomes less available

<h3>What is ecology and what are some terms in ecology?</h3>

Ecology is the study of living things and their interactions with their environment.

Some terms in ecology include:

Peak phenomena: this is when a population grows at a fast rate, then quickly drops when the resources run out
Biological surplus: this occurs when there are more organisms in a population than the ecosystem can sustain
Climax community: this is a point in an ecosystem when all populations reach a point of little or no change
Sigmoid phenomena: this is when a population increases while food and habitat are abundant and decreases as food becomes less available

How many moles of hydrogen are in 5.2 moles of c7h18

alexandr1967 [171]

The percentage of hydrogen in C7H18 is calculated as follows:
[18/(12*7+1*8)]*100=18%
The amount of hydrogen in 5.2moles is given by:(18/100)*5.2=0.94moles

Hich statement describes the process of fusion, but not the process of fission?

lesantik [10]

The answer is A. this process is only in the research phase

The process of fusion involves merging of atomic nuclei to form heavier nuclei resulting in the release of enormous amounts of energy. Fusion takes place when two low mass isotopes, typically isotopes of hydrogen, unite under conditions of extreme pressure and temperature. Scientists continue to work on controlling nuclear fusion in an effort to make a fusion reactor to produce electricity. However, progress is slow due to challenges with understanding how to control the reaction in a contained space.

Does it take more, less, or the same amount of heat to melt 1.0 kg of ice at 0°C, or to bring 1.0 kg of liquid water at 0°C to t

Murljashka [212]

Answer : It takes less amount of heat to metal 1.0 Kg of ice.

Solution :

The process involved in this problem are :

$(1):H_2O(s)(0^oC)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(0^oC)\\\\(2):H_2O(l)(0^oC)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(100^oC)$
