Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter B

Explanation:

First, write the reactions and balance them

a.             2 CH3OH   +  3 O2     ⇒   2  CO2    +   4 H2O

                 ratio   3/2 = 1.5

b.            2 CH2 = CHCH3 +  9 O2  ⇒  3 CO2   + 3 H2O

                 ratio     9/2 = 4.5

c.            2 CH ≡ CH    +   5 O2   ⇒  4 CO2   + 2 H2O

                 ratio     5/2 = 2.5

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

8L of CO2

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction is given below:

2C2H2 + 5O2 —> 4CO2 + 2H2O

From the equation above,

5L of O2 produced 4L of CO2.

Therefore, 10L of O2 will produce = (10 x 4)/5 = 8L of CO2

Therefore, 8L of CO2 is produce

Soil erodes naturally, but human activities can greatly speed the rate of soil erosion, leading to diverse ecological effects an
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Methods of soil conservation are listed below.

Explanation:

The major sources of soil erosion include water,wind and tillage. In order to mitigate or prevent soil erosion, some of the following techniques can be implemented:

  1. <u>Contour Farming: </u>Planting in row patterns that run level around a hill — as opposed to the up and down the slope pattern.This reduces runoffs and consequently water erosion.
  2. <u>Crop Rotation:</u> This involves planting crops with high residue (e.g corn, small grains, e.t.c) in rotation,as the layer of residue would protect the topsoil.  
  3. <u>Built in structural diversion</u> : Used often for gully control, to regulate flow of water away from the field and through designated desired paths.
  4. <u>Conservation Tillage</u>: This involves methods such as no-till planting, strip rotary tillage, etc, which do not allow the soil surface to be smooth and bare, but instead  covered with crop residue that protects the soil from eroding forces.
