Answer:

Invasive species are those specie that is not specific to a certain location, and it spread to a degree and is harmful for human economy.

Explanation:

For e.g. Green Crab

Invasive species can affect human in a way that they threaten biodiversity and alter the ecosystem. It greatly involve in loss of human economy, its function. It also affect human health as well. It is also harmful for our natural resources.

Malaria is caused also by invasive species.

Consider the reaction:

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

K = Ka/Kb

Explanation:

P(s) + (3/2) Cl₂(g) <-------> PCl₃(g) K = ?

P(s) + (5/2) Cl₂(g) <--------> PCl₅(g) Ka

PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g) <---------> PCl₅(g) Kb

K = [PCl₃]/ ([P] [Cl₂]⁽³'²⁾)

Ka = [PCl₅]/ ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾)

Kb = [PCl₅]/ ([PCl₃] [Cl₂])

Since [PCl₅] = [PCl₅]

From the Ka equation,

[PCl₅] = Ka ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾)

From the Kb equation

[PCl₅] = Kb ([PCl₃] [Cl₂])

Equating them

Ka ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾) = Kb ([PCl₃] [Cl₂])

(Ka/Kb) = ([PCl₃] [Cl₂]) / ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾)

(Ka/Kb) = [PCl₃] / ([P] [Cl₂]⁽³'²⁾)

Comparing this with the equation for the overall equilibrium constant

K = Ka/Kb

Calculate the volume in liters of a 0.00231M copper(II) fluoride solution that contains 175.g of copper(II) fluoride CuF2. Be su

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Volume = 746 L

Explanation:

Given that:- Mass of copper(II) fluoride = 175 g

Molar mass of copper(II) fluoride = 101.543 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{175\ g}{101.543\ g/mol}$

$Moles_{copper(II)\ fluoride}= 1.7234\ mol$

Also,

Considering:

$Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

So,,

$Volume =\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Molarity}$

Given, Molarity = 0.00231 M

So,

$Volume =\frac{1.7234}{0.00231}\ L$

<u>Volume = 746 L</u>

In which state of matter is there no particle movement

Alex

Salutations!

In which state of matter is there no particle movement

Solid is the state of matter that has no particle movement. Solid is tightly packed, rigid, and does not takes the shape of the container. The only movement that they have is the vibration movement, otherwise, it is still and has no particle movement.

Hope I helped (:

Have a great day!

(a) The student dissolves the entire impure sample of CuSO4(s) in enough distilled water to make 100.mL of solution. Then the st

Talja [164]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters :

Volume of solution = 100mL

Absorbance of solution = 0.30

Unknown:

Concentration of CuSO₄ in the solution = ?

Solution:

There is relationship between the absorbance and concentration of a solution. They are directly proportional to one another.

A graph of absorbance against concentration gives a value of 0.15M at an absorbance of 0.30.

The concentration is 0.15M

Also, we can use: Beer-Lambert's law;

A = ε mC l

where εm is the molar extinction coefficient

C is the concentration

l is the path length

Since the εm is not given and assuming path length is 1;

Then we solve for the concentration.

A 1.5 M solution of NaOH was made in a laboratory. If the solution made had a volume of 4.5 L, how many grams of NaOH were added

Crank

Answer:

270g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Concentration of NaOH = 1.5M

Volume = 4.5L

Unknown

Mass of NaOH added = ?

Solution:

To solve the problem, we need to find the number of moles of the NaOH first;

Number of moles = concentration x volume

Number of moles = 1.5 x 4.5 = 6.75mol

Now;

Mass = Number of moles x molar mass

Molar mass of NaOH = 23 + 16 + 1 = 40g/mol

Mass = 6.75 x 40 = 270g
