The presence of a large population of sludgeworms indicates water depleted of oxygen and a high level of organic pollution.

The sludgeworms Tubifex is harvested and sold as tropical fish food since it is common near sewer outlets and serves as a sign of water or organic pollution. Polychaetes are crucial in rearranging the silt on the ocean floor.

Organic contamination happens when too much organic material, such sewage or manure, gets into the water.

There will be more decomposers and sludgeworms in a pond as the organic content accumulates. These decomposers and sludgeworms develop quickly and consume a lot of oxygen as they do so.

Hence, Sludgeworms are a sign of an abundance of oxygen-depleted water and significant levels of organic pollutants.

A large balloon is initially filled to a volume of 25.0 L at 353 K and a pressure of 2575 mm Hg. What volume of gas will the bal
bija089 [108]

Answer:

45.0 L is the volume of gas will the balloon contain at 1.35 atm and 253 K.

Explanation:

Using Ideal gas equation for same mole of gas as

\frac {{P_1}\times {V_1}}{T_1}=\frac {{P_2}\times {V_2}}{T_2}

Given ,  

V₁ = 25.0 L

V₂ = ?

P₁ = 2575 mm Hg

Also, P (atm) = P (mm Hg) / 760

P₁ = 2575 / 760 atm = 3.39 atm

P₂ = 1.35 atm

T₁ = 353 K

T₂ = 253 K

Using above equation as:

\frac {{P_1}\times {V_1}}{T_1}=\frac {{P_2}\times {V_2}}{T_2}

\frac{{3.39}\times {25.0}}{353}=\frac{{1.35}\times {V_2}}{253}

\frac{1.35V_2}{253}=\frac{3.39\times \:25}{353}

Solving for V₂ , we get:

<u>V₂ = 45.0 L</u>

45.0 L is the volume of gas will the balloon contain at 1.35 atm and 253 K.

Which state in each of the following pairs has the higher entropy per mole of substance?
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

1. Ice at 0 degrees C.

2. N₂ at STP.

3. N₂ at STP.

4. Water vapor at 150 degrees C and 1 atm.

Explanation:

First, we need to remember that entropy (S) is a <em>measure of how spread out or dispersed the energy of a system is among the different possible ways that system can contain energy</em>. The greater the dispersal, the greater is the entropy.

When the temperature is increased, the energies associated with all types of molecular motion increase. Consequently, the entropy of a system always increases with increasing temperature.

With this in mind, we consider the pairs:

1. Since the ice at 0ºC has a greater temperature than the ice at -40 ºC, the first has the higher entropy.

2. The N₂ at STP (that is, 1 atm and 25 ºC) has higher entropy than N₂ at 0ºC and 10 atm because it has a higher temperature and less pressure, which allows a greater dispersal of energy by the molecules of the gas.

3. The N₂ at STP has a higher entropy since it has a higher temperature than N₂ at 0ºC, even though it the first has a lower volume (24,4 L vs. 50 L).

4. The water vapor at 150 ºC and 1 atm have a higher temperature and a lower pressure. This means that its molecules will have an increased molecular motion than the molecules of water vapor at a lower temperature and higher pressure. Therefore, the first has the highest entropy.

What metal has the largest atomic radius in period 4 (78 points)
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The element potassium(K) with atomic number 19 has the largest atomic radius ( around 225 picometers ).

Explanation:

There is the general expected decrease from left to right with increasing nuclear charge without quantum level expansion or increase in shielding and so pulling the outer electrons closer. The 3d block of metals (Z = 21 to 30) tend to be similar and in fact tend to go through a small minimum at Mn/Fe.

The potassium been on the left most part of period , has largest radius due to least nuclear pulling effect.
