Which of the following human activities can cause eutrophication of lakes?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lana71 [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: 1) Adding fertilizers to soil

Explanation: Eutrophication is the presence of excess mineral and nutrients in water bodies which result into increased plant and algal growth.

Fertilizers containing nitrogen and phosphorus are used to make soil more fertile in farming.  The overuse of fertilizers can cause these nutrients to runoff the farmer's fields and enter water bodies, thus leading to eutrophication.

What is the resistance of a 150 W lightbulb connected to a 24 V voltage source?
Luda [366]

Answer:

3.84 Ω

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Electrical power (P) = 150 W

Voltage (V) = 24 V

Resistance (R) =?

P = IV

Recall:

V = IR

Divide both side by R

I = V/R

P = V/R × V

P = V² / R

Where:

P => Electrical power

V => Voltage

I => Current

R => Resistance

With the above formula (i.e P = V²/R), we can calculate resistance as illustrated below:

Electrical power (P) = 150 W

Voltage (V) = 24 V

Resistance (R) =?

P = V²/R

150 = 24² / R

150 = 576 / R

Cross multiply

150 × R = 576

Divide both side by 150

R = 576 / 150

R = 3.84 Ω

Thus, the resistance is 3.84 Ω

Round the following number to four figures: 45.4673
zhenek [66]

This says four figures. The 4 figures you should use are 4546  with a peek at 7 to see what effect it will have on the 4 main figures.

45.467 rounds to 45.47

You round the 4th figure up one. You are not concerned about the decimal places in this question.

The water-gas shift reaction CO(g)+H2O(g)⇌CO2(g)+H2(g) is used industrially to produce hydrogen. The reaction enthalpy is ΔH∘=−4
denis23 [38]

Answer:

To increase the yield of H₂ we would use a low temperature.

For an exothermic reaction such as this, decreasing temperature increases the value of K and the amount of products at equilibrium. Low temperature increases the value of K and the amount of products at equilibrium.

Explanation:

Let´s consider the following reaction:

CO(g) + H₂O(g) ⇌ CO₂(g) + H₂(g)

When a system at equilibrium is disturbed, the response of the system is explained by Le Chatelier's Principle: <em>If a system at equilibrium suffers a perturbation (in temperature, pressure, concentration), the system will shift its equilibrium position to counteract such perturbation</em>.

In this case, we have an exothermic reaction (ΔH° < 0). We can imagine heat as one of the products. If we decrease the temperature, the system will try to raise it favoring the forward reaction to release heat and, at the same time, increasing the yield of H₂. By having more products, the value of the equilibrium constant K increases.

Which of the following atoms forms an ionic bond with a sulfur atom? (Points : 3)
elena-s [515]
Ionic bonds are formed when there is complete transfer of valence electrons between two atoms.

Electronegativity tells the trend of an atom to atract electrons.

You should search for the complete set of rules that indicate whether an ionic or covalent bond happens.

There are two relevant rules to state if whether an ionic bond will happen:

- When the difference of electronegativities between the two atoms is greater than 2.0, then the bond is ionic.

- When the difference is between 1.6 and 2.0, the bond is ionic if one of the elements is a metal.

You need to list the electronegativities of the five elements (there are tables with this information)

Element  electronegativity

Cu:    1.9
H:      2.2
Cl      3.16
I:        2.66
S:      2.58

Differences:

Cu / S: 2.58 - 1.9 = 0.68
H / S: 2.58 - 2.2 = 0.38
Cl / S: 3.16 - 2.58 =0.58
I / S: 2.66 -  2.58 = 0.08

 Those differences are too low to consider that the bond is ionic.

Then the answer is that none of those atoms forms an ionic bond with sulfur.
