Answer:

Chemical weathering

Explanation:

This is a chemical weathering since chemical change is involved. water flows through the rock, it dissolve the rock particles, reacting with the minerals salts in the rock there by producing new substances, ultimately leading to wearing off of the rock particles

The correct answer is A, the ligt-dependent reactions. These reactions are responsible for the production of glucose molecules, by the utilization of carbon dioxide, and water along with the sunlight. Glucose is then broken down during resiration process, for the production of ATP in mitochondria.

2.00 L of 0.800 M NaNO3 must be prepared from a solution known to be 2.50 M in concentration.How many mL are required? Plus don'

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

1.36 × 10³ mL of water.

Explanation:

We can utilize the dilution equation. Recall that:

$\displaystyle M_1V_1= M_2V_2$

Where M represents molarity and V represents volume.

Let the initial concentration and unknown volume be M₁ and V₁, respectively. Let the final concentration and required volume be M₂ and V₂, respectively. Solve for V₁:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (2.50\text{ M})V_1 &= (0.800\text{ M})(2.00\text{ L}) \\ \\ V_1 & = 0.640\text{ L} \end{aligned}$

Therefore, we can begin with 0.640 L of the 2.50 M solution and add enough distilled water to dilute the solution to 2.00 L. The required amount of water is thus:
$\displaystyle 2.00\text{ L} - 0.640\text{ L} = 1.36\text{ L}$

Convert this value to mL:
$\displaystyle 1.36\text{ L} \cdot \frac{1000\text{ mL}}{1\text{ L}} = 1.36\times 10^3\text{ mL}$

Therefore, about 1.36 × 10³ mL of water need to be added to the 2.50 M solution.

Why are sodium ions good for making batteries?

Wewaii [24]

The largest advantage of sodium-ion batteries is the high natural abundance of sodium. This could make commercial production of sodium-ion batteries less expensive than lithium-ion batteries. As of 2020, sodium ion batteries have very little share of the battery market.
