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 :)

For the most effective hot pack, should the Temperature change be positive or negative ?
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Positive

Explanation:

For the most effective hot pack, the temperature change should be <u>positive</u>.

<em>Hot packs are generally utilized for their heat-producing abilities. Hence, the reactions leading to the activation of hot packs are usually exothermic, that is, heat energy generating. In other words, positive or increased temperatures must be generated when hot packs are activated.</em>

This is unlike cold packs which are utilized for the cold-generating abilities. Reactions leading to their activations must be endothermic, that is, heat-absorbing.

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

17,932.69 g/mol is the molecular weight of the substance.

Explanation:

Using Beer-Lambert's law :

Formula used :

A=\epsilon \times c\times l

where,

A = absorbance of solution = 1.04

c = concentration of solution =?

l = length of the cell = 1 cm

\epsilon = molar absorptivity of this solution = 18,650 M^{-1} cm^{-1}

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the molar absorptivity of this solution.

1.04=18,650 M^{-1} cm^{-1}\times c)\times (1cm)

c = 5.576\times 10^{-5} M

Concentration=\frac{\text{Mass of compound}}{\text{Molecular mass of compound}\times V}

V = Volume of the solution in L

Molecular weight of the substance = x

V = 100 mL = 0.1 L

Mass of the substance = 100 mg = 0.1 g

5.576\times 10^{-5} M=\frac{0.1 g}{x\times 0.1 L}

x = 17,932.69 g/mol

17,932.69 g/mol is the molecular weight of the substance.
