What is the main cause of increased erosion

1 answer:

6 0

The main cause of increased erosion is natural elements like rain, wind and ice. Erosion is the process by which the surface of the Earth gets worn down.
Soil erosion is also a big thing, it is caused by mostly rain that contributes to floods. This stuff is bad for farmers because they do a lot of farming and with erosion increasing the growing crops are decreasing because of erosion.

An important reaction that takes place in a blast furnace during the production of iron is the formation of iron metal and CO2 f

ladessa [460]

Answer: Mass of $Fe_2O_3$ required to form 930 kg of iron is 1328 kg

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For iron:

Given mass of iron = 930 kg = 930000 g (1kg=1000g)

Molar mass of iron = 56 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of iron}=\frac{930000g}{56g/mol}=16607mol$

The chemical equation for the production of iron follows:

$Fe_2O_3+3CO\rightarrow 2Fe+3CO_2$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of iron are produced by = 1 mole of $Fe_2O_3$

So, 16607 moles of iron will be produced by = $\frac{1}{2}\times 16607=8303moles$ of $Fe_2O_3$

Now, calculating the mass of $Fe_2O_3$ from equation 1, we get:

Mass of $Fe_2O_3$ = $moles\times {\text {molar mass}}=8303\times 160=1328480g=1328kg$

Thus mass of $Fe_2O_3$ required to form 930 kg of iron is 1328 kg

Say I grab a bunch of aluminum foil (9.5g) and ball it up. Aluminum has a specific heat of .9J/g*C. How much would the aluminum’

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

ΔT = 0.78 °C

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Al = 9.5 g

Specific heat capacity of Al = 0.9 J/g.°C

Temperature change = ?

Heat added = 67 J

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

67 J = 9.5 g × 0.9 j/g.°C × ΔT

67 J = 85.5 j/°C × ΔT

ΔT = 67 J / 85.5 j/°C

ΔT = 0.78 °C

the grade of coal increases with (remember a higher grade of coal means it produces more energy when burned) quizlet

Aleks04 [339]

The grade of coal increases with compaction.

<h3>What is Compaction?</h3>

When something is crushed or compressed, it becomes compacted. After being collected, trash is often compressed to make it smaller and take up less room. Compaction is the process of making anything more compact, dense, or firmly packed.

grade of coal - The highest grade of coal is anthracite. It is a black, glossy, hard, brittle coal that is frequently referred to as hard coal. It has a high proportion of fixed carbon and a low proportion of volatile matter. Between subbituminous and anthracite, bituminous coal is the intermediate rank of coal.

2. A/an _______ bond allows metals to conduct electricity. A. ionic B. metallic C. covalent D. atomic

lisov135 [29]

The appropriate answer is b. A metallic bond allows metals to conduct electricity. Metallic bonds are formed by atoms of metals in which the outer electrons of the atoms from a common electron cloud. In metallic bonding the atoms are not used up in the actual bond but are shared so they are free to move about to conduct electricity. Electrons in the other bond types are held in place in the molecule an are not free to move about so they cannot conduct electricity.
