How does the phosphorous cycle differ from the nitrogen cycle and the carbon cycle?

Chemistry

Ahat [919]3 years ago

A good way to answer this would be to think about what the major sinks of each resource are. For example phosphorus is mainly pooled in rocks and is released when rocks are weathered and then cycles with the death and decay of plants (etc.) that take it up.

It doesn't occur like this for the nitrogen and carbon cycles - what are their major sinks?

I've attached a pdf which outlines the cycles pretty well :)

Given the reaction below, how will the concentration of D change if the concentration of B decreases by 0.045 M? 3A(g)+2B(g)⇋2C(
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

0.113 M

Explanation:

Since B and D are on opposite sides of the reaction, the concentration of D increases when the concentration of B decreases. The amount by which D increases is determined by the coefficients of B and D in the balanced chemical equation:

[D]=\frac{5}{2}(0.045 M)=0.113 M.

¿QUE DATO DE LA CONFIGURACIÓN ELECTRÓNICA TE PERMITE UBICAR LOS ELEMENTOS QUÍMICOS EN LA TABLA PERIÓDICA?
Blababa [14]

The question is: WHAT DATA OF THE ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATION ALLOWS YOU TO LOCATE THE CHEMICAL ELEMENTS IN THE PERIODIC TABLE?

Explanation:

Elements which have same number of valence electrons tend to show similar chemical properties due to which they are placed in the same group.

Hence, electronic configuration of an element tells us the number of valence electrons present in an element. As a result, it becomes easy to locate the element in its respective group.
