<u>Biomagnification</u> is a dangerous concept because toxic chemicals concentrate as they pass up the food chain. group of answer choices

What is biomagnification?

  • Biomagnification is defined as the accumulation of a particular substance in the body of the organisms at different trophic levels of a food chain.
  • An example for biomagnification is the accumulation of insecticide DDT which gets accumulated in zooplanktons.
  • Zooplanktons are those which consumes small fishes.
  • In the entire food chain or in the predators, the chemical toxic will gets increased.
  • It makes all the animals to get more impact and also it makes the food chain to the higher toxic.
  • Biomagnification can be also known as the biological magnification.
  • Also in plants, if a farmer sprays pesticides on the crops which enters the food chain from crops these pesticides enter into the organisms that feed on it.

How many moles of water are formed when 22 mol of methane combusts?
icang [17]
Methane is a hydrocarbon which when burns in air (combustion) produces carbon dioxide and water. The equation for the reaction;
CH4 +2O2 = CO2 +2H2O
When one mole of methane combusts 2 moles of water are formed
Therefore; when 22 moles of methane combusts 44 moles of water are formed (22 ×2)

You have a solution of 600 mg of caffeine dissolved in 100 mL of water. The partition coefficient for aqueous caffeine extracted
klio [65]

Answer:

159 mg caffeine is being extracted in 60 mL dichloromethane

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of caffeine in 100 mL of water =  600 mg

Volume of the water = 100 mL

Partition co-efficient (K) = 4.6

mass of caffeine extracted = ??? (unknown)

The portion of the DCM = 60 mL

Partial co-efficient (K) = \frac{C_1}{C_2}

where; C_1= solubility of compound in the organic solvent and C_2 = solubility in aqueous water.

So; we can represent our data as:

K=(\frac{A_{(g)}}{60mL} ) ÷ (\frac{B_{(mg)}}{100mL} )

Since one part of the portion is A and the other part is B

A+B = 60 mL

A+B = 0.60

A= 0.60 - B

4.6=(\frac{0.6-B(mg)}{60mL} ) ÷ (\frac{B_{(mg)}}{100mL})

4.6 = \frac{(\frac{0.6-B(mg)}{60mL} )}{(\frac{B_{(mg)}}{100mL})}

4.6 × (\frac{B_{(mg)}}{100mL}) = (\frac{0.6-B(mg)}{60mL} )

4.6 B *\frac{60}{100} = 0.6 - B

2.76 B = 0.6 - B

2.76 + B = 0.6

3.76 B = 0.6

B = \frac{0.6}{3.76}

B = 0.159 g

B = 159 mg

∴ 159 mg caffeine is being extracted from the 100 mL of water containing 600 mg of caffeine with one portion of in 60 mL dichloromethane.

In acidic solution, the sulfate ion can be used to react with a number of metal ions. One such reaction is SO42−(aq)+Sn2+(aq)→H2
allsm [11]

Answer:

The final balanced equation is :

SO_4^{2-}(aq)+4H^+(aq)+Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+H_2O(l)+Sn^{4+}(aq)

Explanation:

SO_4^{2-}(aq)+Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+Sn^{4+}(aq)

Balancing in acidic medium:

First we will determine the oxidation and reduction reaction from the givne reaction :

Oxidation:

Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Sn^{4+}(aq)

Balance the charge by adding 2 electrons on product side:

Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Sn^{4+}(aq)+2e^-....[1]

Reduction :

SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)

Balance O by adding water on required side:

SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+H_2O(l)

Now, balance H by adding H^+ on the required side:

SO_4^{2-}(aq)+4H^+(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+H_2O(l)

At last balance the charge by adding electrons on the side where positive charge is more:

SO_4^{2-}(aq)+4H^+(aq)+2e^-\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+H_2O(l)..[2]

Adding [1] and [2]:

SO_4^{2-}(aq)+4H^+(aq)+Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+H_2O(l)+Sn^{4+}(aq)

The final balanced equation is :

SO_4^{2-}(aq)+4H^+(aq)+Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+H_2O(l)+Sn^{4+}(aq)
