Asking a question............
It depends on the species because most mushrooms help by sharing the phosphorus with the tree
This problem could be solved easily using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation used for preparing buffer solutions. The equation is written below:
pH = pKa + log[(salt/acid]
Where salt represents the molarity of salt (sodium lactate), while acid is the molarity of acid (lactic acid).
Moles of salt = 1 mol/L * 25 mL * 1 L/1000 mL = 0.025 moles salt
Moles of acid = 1 mol/L* 60 mL * 1 L/1000 mL = 0.06 moles acid
Total Volume = (25 mL + 60 mL)*(1 L/1000 mL) = 0.085 L
Molarity of salt = 0.025 mol/0.085 L = 0.29412 M
Molarity of acid = 0.06 mol/0.085 L = 0.70588 M
Thus,
pH = 3.86 + log(0.29412/0.70588)
pH = 3.48
Answer:
A. percentage mass of iron = 5.17%
percentage mass of sand = 8.62%
percentage mass of water = 86.205%
B. (Iron + sand + water) -------> ( iron + sand) ------> sand
C. The step of separation of iron and sand
Explanation:
A. Percentage mass of the mixtures:
Total mass of mixture = (15.0 + 25.0 + 250.0) g =290.0 g
percentage mass of iron = 15/290 * 100% = 5.17%
percentage mass of sand = 25/290 * 100% = 8.62%
percentage mass of water = 250/290 * 100% = 86.205%
B. Flow chart of separation procedure
(Iron + sand + water) -------> separation by filtration using filter paper and funnel to remove water --------> ( iron + sand) -----------> separation using magnet to remove iron ------> sand
C. The step of separation of iron and sand by magnetization of iron will have the highest amount of error because during the process, some iron particles may not readily be attracted to the magnet as they may have become interlaced in-between sand grains. Also, some sand particle may also be attracted to the magnet as they are are borne on iron particles.
Democritus, a Greek philosopher, first developed the idea of atoms (around 460 B.C., I believe).
Hope this helps!
