Sewage and industrial pollutants dumped into a body of water can reduce the dissolved oxygen concentration and adversely affect

aquatic species. In one study, weekly readings are taken from the same location in a river over a two-month period. The week 3 measurement in the data set is suspected of being an outlier.
True or False: According to the Q test, the value at week 3 can be rejected at the 95% confidence level.

Answer:

FALSE

Since 0.385 < 0.526, the value for week 3 is accepted.

Explanation:

Qexp = (|Xq - Xₙ₋₁|)/w

where Xq is the suspected outlier; Xₙ₋₁ is the next nearest data point; w is the range of data

First, the data are arranged in decreasing order, from highest to lowest:

3. 5.6

2. 5.1

8. 5.1

1. 4.9

6. 4.9

5. 4.7

7. 4.5

4. 4.3

Xq = 5.6; Xₙ₋₁ = 5.1; w = 5.6 - 4.3 = 1.3

Qexp = (|5.6 - 5.1|)/1.3 = 0.385

From tables, at 95% confidence level, for n = 8, Qcrit = 0.526

Since 0.385 < 0.526, the value for week 3 is accepted.

Vinil7 [7]
Earth contains huge quantities of water in its oceans, lakes, rivers, the atmosphere, and believe it or not, in the rocks of the inner Earth. Over millions of years, much of this water is recycled between the inner Earth, the oceans and rivers, and the atmosphere. This cycling process means that freshwater is constantly made available to Earth's surface where we all live. Our planet is also very efficient at keeping this water. Water, as a vapor in our atmosphere, could potentially escape into space from Earth. But the water doesn't escape because certain regions of the atmosphere are extremely cold. (At an altitude of 15 kilometers, for example, the temperature of the atmosphere is as low as -60° Celsius!) At this frigid temperature, water forms solid crystals that fall back to Earth's surface.
Many people live faraway from freshwater sources. They need to carry their water home.
While our planet as a whole may never run out of water, it's important to remember that clean freshwater is not always available where and when humans need it. In fact, half of the world's freshwater can be found in only six countries. More than a billion people live without enough safe, clean water.
Also, every drop of water that we use continues through the water cycle. Stuff we put down the drain ends up in someone or something else's water. We can help protect the quality of our planet's freshwater by using it more wisely.

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer : The equilibrium concentration of NO is, 0.0092 M.

Solution :

First we have to calculate the concentration of NO.

\text{Concentration of NO}=\frac{\text{Moles of }NO}{\text{Volume of solution}}=\frac{0.3152mol}{2.0L}=0.1576M

The given equilibrium reaction is,

                           N_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO(g)

Initially conc.      0        0           0.1576

At eqm.               (x)       (x)        (0.1576-2x)

The expression of K_c will be,

K_c=\frac{[NO]^2}{[N_2][O_2]}

0.0153=\frac{(0.1576-2x)^2}{(x)\times (x)}

By solving the term, we get:

x=0.0742,0.0839

Neglecting the 0.0839 value of x because it can not be more than initial value.

Thus, the value of 'x' will be, 0.0742 M

Now we have to calculate the equilibrium concentration of NO.

Equilibrium concentration of NO = (0.1576-2x) = [0.1576-2(0.0742)] = 0.0092 M

Therefore, the equilibrium concentration of NO is, 0.0092 M.

Consider a pot of water at 100 C. If it took 1,048,815 J of energy to vaporize the water and heat it to 135 C, how many grams of
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

There was 450.068g of water in the pot.

Explanation:

Latent heat of vaporisation = 2260 kJ/kg = 2260 J/g = L

Specific Heat of Steam = 2.010 kJ/kg C = 2.010 J/g = s

Let m = x g be the weight of water in the pot.

Energy required to vaporise water = mL = 2260x

Energy required to raise the temperature of water from 100 C to 135 C = msΔT = 70.35x

Total energy required = 2260x+x\times2.010\times(135-100)=2260x+70.35x=2330.35x

2330.35x=1048815\\x=450.068g

Hence, there was 450.068g of water in the pot.
