Both take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.

The ocean absorbs much of the carbon dioxide released when fossil fuels are burned. This extra carbon dioxide lowers the ocean's pH through a process called ocean acidification. Both are important elements for all life on earth. Relationship between the water cycle and the carbon cycle. The sun's energy drives both the carbon cycle and the water cycle.

Recall that sunlight water and carbon dioxide combine in green plants via photosynthesis to produce carbohydrates. The ocean also regulates the Earth's climate. They determine the weather by telling temperatures and determining rainfall, droughts, and floods. It is also the world's largest carbon sink, with an estimated 83% of the global carbon cycle circulating in seawater.

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{E) 721 K; B) 86.7 g}}$

Explanation:

Question 7.

We can use the Combined Gas Laws to solve this question.

a) Data

p₁ = 1.88 atm; p₂ = 2.50 atm

V₁ = 285 mL; V₂ = 435 mL

T₁ = 355 K; T₂ = ?

b) Calculation

$\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{p_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}}& =&\dfrac{p_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}\\\\\dfrac{1.88\times285}{355} &= &\dfrac{2.50\times 435}{T_{2}}\\\\1.509& = &\dfrac{1088}{T_{2}}\\\\1.509T_{2} & = & 1088\\T_{2} & = & \dfrac{1088}{1.509}\\\\ & = & \textbf{721K}\\\end{array}\\\text{The gas must be heated to $\large \boxed{\textbf{721 K}}$}$

Question 8. I

We can use the Ideal Gas Law to solve this question.

pV = nRT

n = m/M

pV = (m/M)RT = mRT/M

a) Data:

p = 4.58 atm

V = 13.0 L

R = 0.082 06 L·atm·K⁻¹mol⁻¹

T = 385 K

M = 46.01 g/mol

(b) Calculation

$\begin{array}{rcl}pV & = & \dfrac{mRT}{M}\\\\4.58 \times 13.0 & = & \dfrac{m\times 0.08206\times 385}{46.01}\\\\59.54 & = & 0.6867m\\m & = & \dfrac{59.54}{0.6867 }\\\\ & = & \textbf{86.7 g}\\\end{array}\\\text{The mass of NO$_{2}$ is $\large \boxed{\textbf{86.7 g}}$}$

For which of the following aqueous solutions would one expect to have the largest van’t Hoff factor (i)? a. 0.050 m NaCl b. 0.50

ira [324]

Answer:

The van't hoff factor of 0.500m K₂SO₄ will be highest.

Explanation:

Van't Hoff factor was introduced for better understanding of colligative property of a solution.

By definition it is the ratio of actual number of particles or ions or associated molecules formed when a solute is dissolved to the number of particles expected from the mass dissolved.

a) For NaCl the van't Hoff factor is 2

b) For K₂SO₄ the van't Hoff factor is 3 [it will dissociate to give three ions one sulfate ion and two potassium ions]

Out of 0.500m and 0.050m K₂SO₄, the van't hoff factor of 0.500m K₂SO₄ will be more.

c) The van't Hoff factor for glucose is one as it is a non electrolyte and will not dissociate.
