The primary reason that large numbers of people left Ireland in the 1840s and 1850s was MASS STARVATION.
Great Famine or Great Hunger was a period in Ireland where mass starvation, diseases, and emigration occurred between 1845 to 1852.
The Great Famine was caused by Phytophthora infestans, a disease that infests in potatoes. Though the potato infestation spread throughout Europe, it greatly affected Ireland, where 1/3 of its population was dependent on the potato crop as their primary source of food.
The loss of their primary source of food led to mass starvation, sickness, and eventual death. Others opted to leave Ireland and seek shelter and food in other countries to survive.
Answer:
[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-10 M
Explanation:
The acidity of a solution can be determined directly from the concentration of the hydrogen ions and indirectly from the concentrations of the hydroxide ions.
Generally, for a neutral solution we have;
[H3O+] = [OH-] = 1.0 x 10-7 M
For an acidic solution;
[H3O+] > 1.0 x 10-7 M
[OH-] < 1.0 x 10-7 M
Comparing the options the correct option is;
[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-10 M
Answer:
Sugar, sodium chloride, and hydrophilic proteins are all substances that dissolve in water. Oils, fats, and certain organic solvents do not dissolve in water because they are hydrophobic.
And, water is called the "universal solvent" because it dissolves more substances than any other liquid. ... Water molecules have a polar arrangement of the oxygen and hydrogen atoms—one side (hydrogen) has a positive electrical charge and the other side (oxygen) had a negative charge.
I don't see any options so there i hope it helps .
Answer:
20L is the new volume
Explanation:
In this case, moles and T° from the gas remain constant. This is the formula we must apply, to solve this:
P₁ . V₁ = P₂ . V₂
5 atm . 10 L = P₂ . 2.5L
P₂ = (5 atm . 10 L) / 2.5L →20L

Explanation:
A)
Remember that positive number superscripts mean electrons lack and negative numbers mean electrons 'excess' (if we compare it with the neutral element). So, for the case of Fe2+ which is converted to Fe3+, we know that in Fe2+ there is a two electrons lack, while in Fe3+ there is a 3 electrons lack; it means that Fe2+ was converted to Fe3+ but releasing one electron:
⇒
The same analysis is applied to Br2; Br2 is a molecule which is said to have a zero superscript because it is an apolar covalent bond; and it is converted to Br-, which, according to what I wrote above, means that there is a one electron excess. So, Br2 must have received an electron in order to change to Br-; but Br2 can't change to Br- as simple as that because Br2 is a molecule, not an atom; it is a molecule that has two Br atoms, so, Br2 must give two Br- ions as products, but receiving one electron for each one:
⇒
b)
Applying the same, in Mg2+ there is a 2 electrons lack, and in Mg is not electron lack (its superscript is zero), so Mg must have released two electrons in order to change to Mg2+:
⇒
Cr3+ has a 3 electrons lack, and Cr2+ a two electrons one, so, Cr3+ must receive an electron to convert to Cr2+:
