The vertical sequence of the layers of soil is called a soil ____?

1 answer:

5 0

Soil profile
Soil profile is the vertical sequence of the layers of soil. Furthermore, there are actually six layers of the soil which involves the organic matter, -where most humus is present-, surface soil, the subsoil, the parent rock, and the bedrock as the innermost and core layer of the soil. In addition each soil layer has three to four soil horizon. These horizons are the physical features of the soil, mainly the texture, color and composition.

Perform unit conversions and determine Re for the case when a fluid with density of 92.8 lbm/ft3 and viscosity of 4.1 cP (centip

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Re=309926.13

Explanation:

density=92.8lbm/ft3*(0.45kg/1lbm)*(1ft3/0.028m3)=1491.43kg/m3

viscosity=4.1cP*((1*10-3kg/m*s)/1cP)=0.0041kg/m*s

velocity=237ft/min*(1min/60s)*(0.3048m/1ft)=1.2m/s

diameter=28inch*(0.0254m/1inch)=0.71m

Re=(density*velocity*diameter)/viscosity=(1491.43kg/m3*1.2m/s*0.71m)/0.0041kg/m*s

Re=309926.13

Determine the change in boiling point for 397.7 g of carbon disulfide (Kb = 2.34°C kg/mol) if 35.0 g of a nonvolatile, nonionizi

uysha [10]

Answer: The change in boiling point for 397.7 g of carbon disulfide (Kb = 2.34°C kg/mol) if 35.0 g of a nonvolatile, nonionizing compound is dissolved in it is $2.9^0C$

Explanation:

Elevation in boiling point:

$T_b-T^o_b=i\times k_b\times \frac{w_2\times 1000}{M_2\times w_1}$

where,

$T_b$ = boiling point of solution = ?

$T^o_b$ = boiling point of pure carbon disulfide= $46.2^oC$

$k_b$ = boiling point constant = $2.34^0Ckg/mol$

m = molality

i = Van't Hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolyte)

$w_2$ = mass of solute = 35.0 g

$w_1$ = mass of solvent (carbon disulphide) = 397.7 g

$M_2$ = molar mass of solute = 70.0 g/mol

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$(T_b-46.2)^oC=1\times (2.34^oC/m)\times \frac{(35.0g)\times 1000}{70.0\times (397.7g)}$

$T_b=49.1^0C$

Therefore, the change in boiling point is $(49.1-46.2)^oC=2.9^0C$

Complete the following sentences:

denpristay [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) In an exothermic reaction, the energy transferred to the surroundings from forming new bonds is ___more____ than the energy needed to break existing bonds.

b) In an endothermic reaction, the energy transferred to the surroundings from forming new bonds is ___less____ than the energy needed to break existing bonds.

c) The energy change of an exothermic reaction has a _____negative_______ sign.

d) The energy change of an endothermic reaction has a ____positive________ sign.

The energy changes occur during the bonds formation and bonds breaking.

There are two types of reaction endothermic and exothermic reaction.

Endothermic reactions:

The type of reactions in which energy is absorbed are called endothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bond are higher than the energy released during bond formation.

For example:

C + H₂O → CO + H₂

ΔH = +131 kj/mol

it can be written as,

C + H₂O + 131 kj/mol → CO + H₂

Exothermic reaction:

The type of reactions in which energy is released are called exothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bonds are less than the energy released during the bond formation.

For example:

Chemical equation:

C + O₂ → CO₂

ΔH = -393 Kj/mol

it can be written as,

C + O₂ → CO₂ + 393 Kj/mol
