Answer:
An -ite or -ate ending means a polyatomic ion that includes oxygen is in the formula.
ate = one more O than -ite
Explanation:
Example:
NO2 is nitrite
NO3 is nitrate
You can see that the molecules are made of the same elements, however they have more or less of one of the elements (i.e. oxygen).
Answer:
productivity and water depth
Explanation:
The productivity and the depth of water are both equally important as it directly affects the accumulation of biogenic sediments such as the siliceous ooze and calcareous ooze. In the equator and the coastal upwelling areas, and at the site of divergence of oceans, there occurs a high rate and amount of productivity, and these are considered to be the primary productivity.
The siliceous oozes are a good indicator of extensively high productivity in comparison to the carbonate oozes. The main reason behind this is that the silica can be easily dissolved in the surface water. On the other hand, the carbonates dissolve at a relatively lower ocean water depth, so there requires a high amount of surface productivity in order to allow these siliceous oozes to reach the ocean bottom.
Thus, the water depth and productivity, both are considered as the limiting factor in determining the accumulation of biogenic oozes.
Answer: Marcia made a more concentrated salt solution.
Explanation:
Marcia used 1 kg of salt, which the exercise tells us is 2.2 lb.
She dissolved it in 3L of water, so we have to find out how much that is in pints. We do that using cross multiplication.
If 1L equals 2.11 pints, then
xpints / 3L = 2.11pints / 1L, so
xpints = (3L . 2.11pints) / 1L = 6.33 pints
Now we know she dissolved 2.2lb in 6.33 pints of water. We use cross multiplication again to find out how much salt she would have in 10 pints, so we can know how concentrated it is compared to Bobby's solution, which is 10 pints.
xlb / 10pints = 2.2lb / 6.33pints
xlb = (10pints . 2.2lb) / 6.33pints = 3.47lb
So Marcia has a concentration of 3.47lb per 10 pints, whereas Bobby only has 3lb per 10 pints.
Answer:
C6H12 (g) + 9 O2 (g) → 6 CO2 (g) + 6 H2O (l)
