Why are coastal zones productive?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anit [1.1K]3 years ago
7 0

The surface waters in regions of coastal up-welling are cold and nutrient-rich, promoting robust growth of plants and the animals that feed on them. ... When too many nutrients are released into seas, bays, and estuaries, it can create an overabundance of decaying plants and animals, depleting oxygen from the water.

in the following reaction, how many grams of benzene (C6H6) will produce 42 grams of CO2? 2C6H6 + 15O2 → 12CO2 + 6H2O
Mrrafil [7]

Answer: -

12.41 g

Explanation: -

Mass of CO₂ = 42 g

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 x 1 + 16 x 2 = 44 g / mol

Number of moles of CO₂ = \frac{42}{44 g/mol}

= 0.9545 mol

The balanced chemical equation for this process is

2C₆H₆ + 15O₂ → 12CO₂ + 6H₂O

From the balanced chemical equation we see

12 mol of CO₂ is produced from 2 mol of C₆H₆

0.9545 mol of CO₂ is produced from \frac{2 mol C6H6 x 0.9545 mol  CO2}{12 mol CO2}

= 0.159 mol of C₆H₆

Molar mass of C₆H₆ = 12 x 6 + 1 x 6 =78 g /mol

Mass of C₆H₆ =Molar mass x Number of moles

= 78 g / mol x 0.159 mol

= 12.41 g

An energy profile for the reaction A⇌B (left), and the change in concentration of B as a function of time (right), with and with
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

<em>What quantity dictates the speed of a reaction?</em> The activation energy

Explanation:

According to the collision theory, when molecules collide, they must overcome an energy barrier for the reaction to take place. This energy, known as activation energy, is represented by the difference in energy between the initial state and the transition state. The higher the activation energy, the slower the reaction. That's why catalysts reduce the activation energy to accelerate the reaction.
