Explanation:

Population is hugely dependent on the environment and it's factors. The physical, chemical and biological components of the environment plays vital roles in the sustenance of all life on earth.

A change in the environment can lead to terrifying consequences. Let's examine some of the changes:

Climate change can lead to flooding of biological habitats and where people typically reside. This can lead to death and loss of life.
Drought can lead to decline in food production. During a drought, a place receives little to no rainfall and the land is not fit for agricultural practices. This will eventually lead to famine.
Pollution: it is the introduction of harmful substances into the environment. Pollution is harmful to the population.
Geological hazards; earthquakes, volcanic eruptions,mass wasting and so on can lead to a crash in population.
Wildfires, tornadoes, dust bowls e.t.c are changes in the environment that can cause severe consequences on the population.

Purification of copper can be achieved by electrorefining copper from an impure copper anode onto a pure copper cathode in an el

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer: 281 hours

Explanation:-

1 electron carry charge= $1.6\times 10^{-19}C$

1 mole of electrons contain= $6.023\times 10^{23}$ electrons

Thus 1 mole of electrons carry charge= $\frac{1.6\times 10^{-19}}{1}\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=96500C$

$Cu^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Cu$

$96500\times 2=193000Coloumb$ of electricity deposits 1 mole or 63.5 g of copper

0.0635 kg of copper is deposited by 193000 Coloumb

11.5 kg of copper is deposited by= $\frac{193000}{0.0635}\times 11.5=34952756$ Coloumb

$Q=I\times t$

where Q= quantity of electricity in coloumbs = 34952756 C

I = current in amperes = 34.5 A

t= time in seconds = ?

$34952756 C=34.5A\times t$

$t=1013123sec=281hours$

Thus it will take 281 hours to plate 11.5 kg of copper onto the cathode if the current passed through the cell is held constant at 34.5 A.

g Ethanol boils at 78.4 °C with \DeltaΔHvap = 38.6 kJ/mol. A 0.200-mol sample of ethanol is heated from some colder temperature

andrezito [222]

Answer:

8.77 kilo Joules will be the total amount of heat required for both the heating and the vaporizing.

Explanation:

Moles of ethanol of ethanol = 0.200 mol

Heat required to heat 0.200 moles of ethanol = Q = 1.05 kJ

Enthalpy of vaporization of ethanol = $\Delta H_{vap}=38.6 kJ/mol$

Heat required to vaporize 0.200 moles of ethanol = Q'

$Q'=\Delta H_{vap}\times 0.200 mol=38.6 kJ/mol\times 0.200 mol=7.72 kJ$

Total heat required to fore heating and the vaporizing :

= Q + Q' = 1.05 kJ + 7.72 kJ = 8.77 kJ

8.77 kilo Joules will be the total amount of heat required for both the heating and the vaporizing.

Why do weak bases have strong conjugate acids?

Margarita [4]

A strong acid like HCl donates its proton so readily that there is essentially no tendency for the conjugate base Cl– to reaccept a proton. Consequently, Cl– is a very weak base.
