Las Vegas, Nevada is in a desert. How does its rapid population growth affect the

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Many areas of the United States experience explosive population growth. The more people that reside someplace, the more demand there is for water there. Often these urban-growth expansions are unplanned and place extraordinary stress on the water supply system, mainly on the groundwater. The stress often depletes groundwater supply, thereby causing wells to dry up. Then water must be brought from somewhere else to support the local population.

Such situations have occurred all over the United States. For example, increased population growth in the southwestern United States has significantly lowered the water table 50 to 200 feet (depending on the area) since the 1940s. Managing urban growth, efforts to reduce water demand, conservation of the resource, and attempts to increase the water supply all address the problem of exceeding water resource limits.

Human activities affect groundwater quality.

Here are some sources and possible solutions to groundwater pollution:

Agriculture—Reduce usage of pesticides and fertilizers.

Landfills—Monitor for leakage and repair linings.

Underground storage tanks—Remove damaged and unused tanks.

Household wastes—Properly dispose of household hazardous waste.

Septic tank leaks—Properly maintain and repair tanks.

How is genetic information is the same as a plum tree.

shutvik [7]

Answer:

This work was done in the European plum (Prunus domestica). The gene for PPV coat protein was separated from the PPV virus and inserted into the plum DNA, which was then regenerated and grown into complete plum trees. These trees now had the additional gene in their DNA and became resistant to PPV.

In the reaction C + O2 → CO2, 18 g of carbon react with oxygen to produce 72 g of carbon dioxide. What mass of oxygen would be n

artcher [175]

Stoichiomety:

1 moles of C + 1 mol of O2 = 1 mol of CO2

multiply each # of moles times the atomic molar mass of the compund to find the relation is weights

Atomic or molar weights:

C: 12 g/mol
O2: 2 * 16 g/mol = 32 g/mol
CO2 = 12 g/mol + 2* 16 g/mol = 44 g/mol

Stoichiometry:

12 g of C react with 32 g of O2 to produce 44 g of CO2

Then 18 g of C will react with: 18 * 32/ 12 g of Oxygen = 48 g of Oxygen

And the result will be 12 g of C + 48 g of O2 = 60 g of CO2.

You cannot obtain 72 g of CO2 from 18 g of C.

May be they just pretended that you use the law of consrvation of mass and say that you need 72 g - 18g = 54 g. But it violates the proportion of C and O2 in the CO2 and is not possible.

If atoms are made of smaller parts such as electrons, why are atoms considered the basic unit of matter?

arsen [322]

Firstly, atoms are also composed of protons and neutrons as well as electrons.

Now, to answer your question... Atoms are the smallest you can go while still having it be an element, hence the definition ''the basic unit of a chemical element.'' It is the smallest unit that has the chemical properties of an element. However, atoms still need these charges to be atoms. Without electrons, they'd just be ions. Hope this helps.
