Answer:

It's groundwater becomes contaminated.

Explanation:

More than 94% of the coal ash ponds in the United States are unlined. Almost all of them are contaminating groundwater with toxins above levels that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency deems safe for drinking water.

If you had common sense you wouldn't be asking this question.

Exactly one mole of an ideal gas is contained in a 2.00-liter container at 1,000 K. What is the pressure exerted by this gas?
levacccp [35]
Use PV =nRT

so P = nRT/V

= 1 mole(0.08205 L atm/K mol)(1000K) / 2 L

= 41 atm

Wht are the trends for electronegativity and ionzation energy similar​
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Along period electronegativity and ionization energy increases.

Along group electronegativity and ionization energy decreases.

Explanation:

Along period:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. Thus the attraction of the atoms for valance electrons increases. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required, and electronegativity also increases.

Along group:

As we move from top to bottom in periodic table the atomic sizes increases.The electrons are added in next energy level in every next element. Thus the valance electrons farther away from the nucleus and hold of nucleus becomes weaker,  because of weak nuclear attraction atomic radii increases and electronegativity and ionization energy decreases.

Calculate the molarity of a solution that contains 0.250 moles of kf in 0.500 l of water
MakcuM [25]
Molarity can be defined as the number of moles of solute in 1 L of solution.

M = n/V

Where M is the molarity of the solution (M or mol/L), n is the moles of the solute (mol) and V is the volume of the solution (L).

Here, solute is KF.

n = <span>0.250 mol
</span>V = 0.500 L
M = ?

By applying the formula,
   M = 0.250 mol / 0.500 L
   M = 0.500 mol/L

Hence, the molarity of KF solution is 0.500 mol/L.

Which best describes the greenhouse effect?
konstantin123 [22]
The correct answer should be B) Water vapor and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere trap heat.

The trapped heat cannot leave the atmosphere and as it is trapped, it increases the heat of the planet.
