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

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lana71 [14]4 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.

A 41.1 g sample of solid CO2 (dry ice) is added to a container at a temperature of 100 K with a volume of 3.4 L. If the containe
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The pressure inside the container is 6.7 atm

Explanation:

We have the ideal gas equation: P x V = n x R x T

whereas, P (pressure, atm), V (volume, L), n (mole, mol), R (ideal gas constant, 0.082), T (temperature, Kelvin)

Since the container is evacuated and then sealed, the volume of the body of gas is the volume of the container.

So we can calculate the pressure by

P = n x R x T / V

where as,

n = 41.1 g / 44 g/mol = 0.934 mol

Hence P = 0.934 x 0.082 x 298 / 3.4 L = 6.7 atm

Which element melts at room temperature?
just olya [345]
Francium is an element that melts at room temperature. Francium is a highly reactive element, and only contains one valence electron, which is very ironic in my opinion.

Which radioactive emission has the smallest (least) mass? Question options:
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The answer is D. gamma rays

Explanation:

A radioactive atom can have three different types of emission:

alpha particles (α) = they have a mass of 4 amu and they have a very low penetrating power.

Beta particles (β) = they have 5x10^{-4} amu and they have an intermediate penetrating power

Gamma rays (γ) = they are not particles basically just energy so its mass is ≈ 0 and its penetrating power is higher

For this reason Gamma emissions (γ) has the smallest mass value.
