Answer: Increase in temperature

Explanation:

Once there is an increase in temperature of the exothermic reaction, the equilibrium position shifts to the left since equilibrium constant, K decreases; hence favoring the formation of reactants which are 2SO2(g) and O2(g).

Decrease in temperature, on the other hand, would shift the equilibrium to the right since equilibrium constant, K increases.

Thus, for the exothermic reaction 2SO2(g)+O2(g)=2SO3(g): increase in temperature would shift the equilibrium over to the left.

Which of the following is NOT a way that reducing biodiversity directly impacts humans?

Zepler [3.9K]

C. Fewer habitats for wild animals to live in

Explanation:

Biodiversity does not directly impact humans in that there are fewer habitats for wild animals to live in. This is a direct impact on animals and not humans.

Biodiversity is the variation of life forms in an area. It is measured by the ability of the ecosystem to sustain different life forms and keep their interaction with the environment.

It helps to maintain and sustain life.

To humans, reducing biodiversity;

reduces the potential of medicine derived from other organisms. When their habitat is lost, we lose them.
fewer ecosystems to appreciate for beauty and recreation. It leads to loss of the ecosystem.
fewer wild food species for humans to eat.

Loss of habitat directly affects wild animals and not man.

10. A 2.36-gram sample of NaHCO3 was completely decomposed in an

Airida [17]

Answer:

0.79 g

Explanation:

Let's introduce a strategy needed to solve any similar problem like this:

Apply the mass conservation law (assuming that this reaction goes 100 % to completion): the total mass of the reactants should be equal to the total mass of the products.

Based on the mass conservation law, we need to identify the reactants first. Our only reactant is sodium bicarbonate, so the total mass of the reactants is:

$m_r=m_{NaHCO_3}=2.36 g$

We have two products formed, sodium carbonate and carbonic acid. This implies that the total mass of the products is:

$m_p=m_{Na_2CO_3}+m_{H_2CO_3}$

Apply the law of mass conservation:

$m_r=m_p$

Substitute the given variables:

$m_{NaHCO_3}=m_{Na_2CO_3}+m_{H_2CO_3}$

Rearrange for the mass of carbonic acid:

$m_{H_2CO_3}=m_{NaHCO_3}-m_{Na_2CO_3}=2.36 g - 1.57 g=0.79 g$

A sample of gas has a volume of 215 cm3 at 23.5 degrees Celsius and 84.6kPa what volume will the gas occupy at stp

miss Akunina [59]

The volume of the gas that occupy at STP is 165. 28 cm^3

calculation

by use of combined gas law that is P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2, where

P1=84.6 kpa

T1=23.5 +273=296.5 K

V1=215 cm^3

At STP T= 273 K and P= 101.325 Kpa

therefore p2 = 101.325 Kpa and T2 = 272 K V2=?

by making V2 the subject of the formula V2 =T2P1V1/P2T1

V2 = 273 K x 84.6 Kpa x 215 cm^3/ 101,.325 Kpa x296.5 K =165.28 cm^3

A 21.0 kg child is running at a velocity of 2.50 m/s. The child is carrying a 2.25 kg gallon of milk. What is the momentum of th

KIM [24]

Answer: The momentum of the child and milk together is 58.125 kg.m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as the product of object's mass and velocity.

Mathematically,

$p=mv$

where, p = momentum

m = mass of the object

v = velocity of the object

In the given question, we are given that a child of mass 21.0 kg is carrying a gallon of milk having mass 2.25 kg and running with a velocity of 2.5 m/s. Hence, the momentum by both milk and child will be:

$p=(m_{child}+m_{milk})v$ ....(1)
