The answer is: pesticides.

Eutrophication is a process by which nutrients, particularly phosphorus and nitrogen, become highly concentrated in a water, leading to increased growth of algae or cyanobacteria.

Fertilizers contain phosphorus and nitrogen, pesticide do not.

NPK ratio system is a conventional shorthand for the ratio of the nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) in a fertilizer.

Eutrophication is a serious environmental problem.

Morgarella [4.7K]

Explanation:

First, let's review the ideal gas law, PV = nRT. In this equation, 'P' is the pressure in atmospheres, 'V' is the volume in liters, 'n' is the number of particles in moles, 'T' is the temperature in Kelvin and 'R' is the ideal gas constant (0.0821 liter atmospheres per moles Kelvin).

Butyric acid is responsible for the odor in rancid butter. A solution of 0.25 M butyric acid has a pH of 2.71. What is the Ka fo
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Ka = 1.5 × 10⁻⁵

Explanation:

Butyric acid is a weak acid that ionizes according to the following equation:

CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-COOH(aq) ⇄ CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq)

We can find the value of the acid dissociation constant (Ka) using the following expression:

Ka=\frac{[H^{+}]^{2} }{Ca}

where

[H⁺] is the molar concentration of H⁺

Ca is the initial molar concentration of the acid

We can find [H⁺] from the pH.

pH = -log [H⁺]

[H⁺] = antilog -pH = antilog -2.71 = 1.95 × 10⁻³ M

Then,

Ka=\frac{(1.95 \times 10^{-3})^{2} }{0.25} =1.5 \times 10^{-5}

complete the following table and calculate the decrease in the freezing point of water when 1 mol glycerol (CH3OH-CHOH-CH2OH), N
garik1379 [7]

The decrease in the freezing point of the solution is −1.86oC.

<h3>What is the decrease in the freezing point?</h3>

Now we know that the freezing point depression of a solid is a colligative property of the solution.

Thus we have that;

ΔT = K m i

ΔT = freezing point depression

K = freezing constant

m = molality of the solution

i = Van't Hoff factor

Thus;

molality =  1 mol/1 Kg = 1 m

ΔT = −1.86oC/m * 1 m * 1

ΔT =−1.86oC

Determine the pH of a 0.015 M HNO3 solution.
miskamm [114]

Answer:

0.015 M HNO3 = 0.015 M H3O+ pH = -log(0.015) = 1.82 [OH -] = 1.0 x 10 -14/0.015 M = 6.7 x 10 13 Check: HNO3 is a strong acid, so we expect the pH to be low and the [OH ] to be small
