Zinc carbonate has the chemical formula : ZnCO3 and the equation for thermal decomposition is:
ZnCO3 .................> ZnO + CO2
1 mole of ZnCO3 produces one mole of ZnO

From the periodic table:
molar mass of zinc = 65.38 gm
molar mass of carbon = 12 gm
molar mass of oxygen = 16 gm

molar mass of ZnCO3 = 65.38 + 12 + 3(16) = 125.38 gm
molar mass of ZnO = 65.38 + 16 = 81.38 gm

125.38 gm of ZnCO3 produces 81.38 gm of ZnO, therefore:
mass of ZnO in 375 gm = (375 x 81.38) / 125.38 = 243.4 gm

Based on the above calculations, the correct answer is 243 grams

We dissolve 93 grams of sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) in 20 grams of water. What is the percent by mass of sodium sulfate in this solu
dlinn [17]
It should be for the total solution of 93 plus 20 grams which is 113 grams so 93 divided by 113 grams comes to 82.3% sodium sulfate and this can be checked by multiplying 113 grams by 0.823 which results in 93 grams of sodium sulphate.

Describe the sources of water pollution in hydrological cycle.
Bingel [31]

Explanation:

The hydrological cycle is the continuous cycling of water between land, open water surfaces and the sea. This cycle begins with evaporation, sunlight evaporates water from the surface of earth, next condensation happens, the water absorbed is now used to form clouds, after these clouds are filled to the maximum, precipitation happens, this can be in the form of rainfall and snow, this cycle finalizes when the precipitation of water runs off the land and back into water sources.

Sources of water pollution:

  • <em>During precipitation: </em>Smog can be gathered in the atmosphere, during precipitation this pollution can turn into acid rain.
  • <em>During runoff:</em> After acid rain hits the ground this polluted water can run into water sources (lakes, rivers, reservoirs).To some extent rivers are a self-renewing resource, if a small quantity of pollution discharges in it the river can return to a clean, unpolluted condition, unfortunately, if the pollution is too big the renewing won't be possible, another problem is even though rivers get cleaned the pollution moves to the seas. Lakes are even more vulnerable to pollution, the flushing effect in these water bodies is less evident than in rivers.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
