The answer is: C. decomposition.

Decomposition is reaction where one substance is broken down into two or more simpler substances.

Balanced chemical reaction of water decomposition: 2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂.

This is decomposition reaction, because from one molecule (water) two molecules (hydrogen and oxygen) are produced.

Chemical decomposition is opposite of chemical synthesis.

A river with a flow of 50 m3/s discharges into a lake with a volume of 15,000,000 m3. The river has a background pollutant conce

spin [16.1K]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Volume of lake = $15 \times 10^{6} m^{3}$ = $15 \times 10^{6} m^{3} \times \frac{10^{3} liter}{1 m^{3}}$

Concentration of lake = 5.6 mg/l

Total amount of pollutant present in lake = $5.6 \times 15 \times 10^{9} mg$

= $84 \times 10^{9}$ mg

= $84 \times 10^{3}$ kg

Flow rate of river is 50 $m^{3} sec^{-1}$

Volume of water in 1 day = $50 \times 10^{3} \times 86400 liter$

= $432 \times 10^{7}$ liter

Concentration of river is calculated as 5.6 mg/l. Total amount of pollutants present in the lake are $2.9792 \times 10^{10} mg$ or $2.9792 \times 10^{4} kg$

Flow rate of sewage = $0.7 m^{3} sec^{-1}$

Volume of sewage water in 1 day = $6048 \times 10^{4}$ liter

Concentration of sewage = 300 mg/L

Total amount of pollutants = $1.8144 \times 10^{10} mg$ or $1.8144 \times 10^{4}kg$

Therefore, total concentration of lake after 1 day = $\frac{131936 \times 10^{6}}{1.938 \times 10^{10}}mg/ l$

= 6.8078 mg/l

$k_{D}$ = 0.2 per day

$L_{o}$ = 6.8078

Hence, $L_{liquid}$ = $L_{o}(1 - e^{-k_{D}t}$

$L_{liquid}$ = $6.8078 (1 - e^{-0.2 \times 1})$

= 1.234 mg/l

Hence, the remaining concentration = (6.8078 - 1.234) mg/l

= 5.6 mg/l

Thus, we can conclude that concentration leaving the lake one day after the pollutant is added is 5.6 mg/l.

Tai ran from his home to a position 300 m south of his home in 100 seconds. What was his velocity?

77julia77 [94]

Well, if you are moving forward in a direction, then your velocity is your speed with the direction you are moving in. To calculate velocity, you divide your distance traveled by the time it took to travel that distance and you add your direction to it.
So to conclude, 300/100= 3 m/s South

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

-179.06 kJ

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced reaction.

HCl(g) + NaOH(s) ⟶ NaCl(s) + H₂O(l)

We can calculate the standard enthalpy change for the reaction (ΔH°r) using the following expression.

ΔH°r = 1 mol × ΔH°f(NaCl(s)) + 1 mol × ΔH°f(H₂O(l)) - 1 mol × ΔH°f(HCl(g)) - 1 mol × ΔH°f(NaOH(s))

ΔH°r = 1 mol × (-411.15 kJ/mol) + 1 mol × (-285.83 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × (-92.31 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × (-425.61 kJ/mol)

ΔH°r = -179.06 kJ
