How does vegetation allow greater infiltration?

1 answer:

8 0

Vegetation allows for greater infiltration by anchoring soil and keeping it from drying into a hard barren surface through protection from direct sun rays. When the soil is soft, infiltration is greatly enhanced.

Living and decaying roots create a network of well connected channels in the soil called macro pores. Flow through these macro pores can be several hundred times faster than through the soil matrix.

Leaf litter produces humus. Soil structure is improved as soil particles are cemented together by humus and sugars excreted from roots. The improved soil structure permits increased infiltration.

Britta traveled 1250 km on her road trip and used 209 L of gasoline, filling her tank atan average of 1.14 euros per liter. Pier

icang [17]

Answer:

Britta paid more per kilometer driven

Explanation:

1) Britta:

Distance traveled: 1,250 Km

Gasoline used: 209 liter

Gasoline price: 1.23 euros / liter

Cost per km = total cost of gasoline / distance traveled

Cost per km = gasoline used × gasoline price / distance traveled

Cost per km = 209 liter × 1.14 (euro / liter) / 1,250 km = 0.19 euro / km

2) Pierce:

Distance traveled: 1,405 km

Gasoline used: 175 liter

Gasoline price = 1.23 euros / liter

Cost per km = 175 liter × 1.23 (euro / liter) / 1,405 km = 0.15 euro / km

3) Comparison:

0.19 > 0.15 ⇒ Britta paid more per kilometer driven

Given 8.25 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol, how many grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized, assuming a complete 100

mash [69]

Answer:

10.87 g of Ethyl Butyrate

Solution:

The Balance Chemical Equation is as follow,

H₃C-CH₂-CH₂-COOH + H₃C-CH₂-OH → H₃C-CH₂-CH₂-COO-CH₂-CH₃ + H₂O

According to equation,

88.11 g (1 mol) Butanoic Acid produces = 116.16 g (1 mol) Ethyl Butyrate

So,

8.25 g Butanoic Acid will produce = X g of Ethyl Butyrate

Solving for X,

X = (8.25 g × 116.16 g) ÷ 88.11 g

X = 10.87 g of Ethyl Butyrate
