Answer and Explanation:

Calorie is the unit of heat energy . There are 2 units with the same name 'calorie' which is widely used.

'The amount of heat energy required to increase the temperature of 1 gram of water by mass by 1^{\circ}C or 1 K is known as small calorie or gram calorie'.

Another one is large calorie which can be defined as :

'The amount of heat energy required to make arise in temperature of water 1 kg by mass by 1^{\circ}C or 1 K is known as large calorie or  kilcalorie and is represented as Cal or kcal'.

After the adoption of SI system, thee units of the metric system cal, C or kilocal are considered deprecated or obsolete with the SI unit for heat energy as 'joule or J'

1 cal = 4.184 J

1C or 1 kilocal = 4184 J

Calorimeter constant:

Calorimeter constant, represented as 'C_{cal}' is used to quantify the heat capacity or the amount of heat of a calorimeter.

It can be calculated by ther given formula:

{\displaystyle C_{cal}}={\frac {\Delta {H}}{\Delta {T}}}}}

where,

{\Delta {T}} = corresponding temperature change

{\Delta {H} = enthalpy change

Its unit is J/K or J/1^{\circ}C[/tex] which can be convertyed to cal/1^{\circ}C[/tex] by dividing the calorimeter constant by 4.184 or 4184 accordingly.

How are the three phrases of agriculture (shifting, labor-intensive, mechanized monoculture) different in terms of description,
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

Shifting, labor intensive and monoculture are different in terms of description,restrictions and problem.

Shifting is an agriculture method in which an area if land is cultivated for a while and abandoned for the soil to regain and preserve it's fertility. It is done to restore soul fertility.

It has restrictions because it is done in places where there is large areas of land, if there is not large area of land, it will be done.

It can lead to defforestation because trees are cut fine for land cultivation and after a while the land is abandoned and trees are cut down some where else too.

Labor intensive refers to agricultural industry requiring or needing large amount of labor to produce agricultural products. Labor intensive is restricted to areas where there is low or no people who can engage in agricultural services.

Labor intensive require high skilled people which might not be available.

Monoculture is a farming system where by a single crop is cultivated in an area of land.

The problem of monoculture is that it displaces species and nutrients occuring naturally in an ecosystem.

Monoculture is restricted in areas where diversity of crops are needed.

Catalytic Converter is the correct answer. Toxic gases are produced in the combustion reaction of an engine, and when this gas adheres to the converter, it’s chemically transmuted into something that’s harmless.

A 25.00 ml sample of hydrochloric acid solution, hcl, is titrated with 0.0512 m naoh solution. the volume of naoh solution requi
Tresset [83]

A 25.00 ml sample of hydrochloric acid solution, HCl, is titrated with 0.0512 m NaOH solution. the volume of NaOH solution required is 21.68 ml  then the molarity of the HCl solution is 0.044 M .

Calculation ,

Formula used : M_{1} V_{1} =M_{2} V_{2}                            ...( i )

Where M is the molarity or concentration and V is the volume in ml .

concentration of hydrochloric acid solution ( M_{1}    ) = ?

concentration of NaOH ( M_{2} ) = 0.0512 M

volume of hydrochloric acid solution  ( V_{1} ) = 25.00 ml

volume of NaOH ( V_{2} ) =  21.68 ml

Putting the value of concentration , volume of both  in equation ( i ) we get .

M_{1}   × 25.00 ml = 0.0512 × 21.68 ml

M_{1}    = 0.0512 × 21.68 ml / 25.00 ml= 0.044 M
