What are the effects on global food webs if the sun's energy could no longer reach Earth

1 answer:

6 0

They would collapse as the sun gives the producers energy to grow i.e plants through photosynthesis. Without plants most animals would die out unless humans could somehow create a food in labs without animals or plants for 6 billion people. Ultimately it would be the death of the human race and just about everything on Earth apart from some plants that live in the deep depths of the sea which have adapted to not having as much sunlight.

From the lists of available reagents select the one(s) you would use to in a preparation of acetophenone (phenyl methyl ketone)

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Step 1) hydrolysis using NaOH/H2O to form benzylalcohol

Step2) oxidation to Carboxylic acid using KMnO4 followed by decarboxylation to form benzene

3) friedel craft acylation using CH3COCl/AlCl3

Explanation:

The above 3 steps will yield acetophenone from methylbenzoate

Drag and drop the terms into the correct locations to describe how the relationship between photosynthetic organisms and animals

g100num [7]

Answer:

Photosynthetic bacteria must take in Carbon Dioxide to live, and they release Oxygen . Animals must take Oxygen to live, and they release Carbon Dioxide.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis:

It is the process in which in the presence of sun light and chlorophyll by using carbon dioxide and water plants produce the oxygen and glucose.

Carbon dioxide + water + energy → glucose + oxygen

water is supplied through the roots, carbon dioxide collected through stomata and sun light is capture by chloroplast.

Chemical equation:

6H₂O + 6CO₂ + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

Photosynthetic bacteria perform same function as plants. These bacteria contain light harvesting pigments absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen.

While animals take oxygen and release carbon dioxide to live. This respiration process is opposite to the photosynthesis.

Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP

X-rays had a frequency of about 3x10^18 determine it's wavelength (in nm) and energy per photon

Serggg [28]

Answer:

E = 19.89×10⁻¹⁶ J

λ = 1×10⁻¹ nm

Explanation:

Given data:

Frequency of xray = 3×10¹⁸ Hz

Wavelength of xray = ?

Energy of xray = ?

Solution:

speed of wave = wavelength × frequency

speed = 3×10⁸ m/s

3×10⁸ m/s = λ ×3×10¹⁸ s⁻¹

λ = 3×10⁸ m/s / 3×10¹⁸ s⁻¹

λ = 1×10⁻¹⁰m

m to nm:

λ = 1×10⁻¹⁰m×10⁹

λ = 1×10⁻¹ nm

Energy of x-ray:

E = h.f

h = plancks constant = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js

by putting values,

E = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js ×3×10¹⁸ s⁻ ¹

E = 19.89×10⁻¹⁶ J
