How does a tree speed up erosion? How can it slow erosion down?

1 answer:

8 0

A tree is able to speed up erosion because it break up rocks. This can happen as it’s roots grow through rocks, the water breaks through rocks, etc.
It can slow erosion down because it can act as a barrier to the elements that erode.

C)[D]/[ED] = 5.20

D)[D]/[ED] = 5.20

E)[D']_T = 1.495* 10 ^-7 M

F)[D'] / [ED'] = 0.0579

Explanation:

E = 250 nM =2.5* 10 ^-7 mol/L , T=298.15 K

Dissociation constant of K_D = 1.3 μM (1.3 *10 ^-6 M)

E + D ⇄ ED → K_a = [ED] / [D][E] (association constant)

ED ⇄ E + D → K_D = [E][D] / [ED] (dissociation constant)

[E] =2.5*10^-7 mol/L

K_D = 1.3* 10^-6 M

K_D = [E][D] / [ED] → [D]/[ED] = K_D / [E]

= [D]/[ED] = 1.3* 10 ^-6 / 2.5 *10^-7

= 13/25 * 10

=130/25 = 5.20

[D]/[ED] = 5.20

ΔG =RTln Kd

ΔG_2 for E and D = 1.987 * 298.15 * ln 1.3*10^-6

ΔG_2 592.454 * [ln 1.3 +ln 10^-6]

ΔG_1 = 592.424 [0.2623 - 13.8155]

ΔG_2 = -592.424 * 13.553

ΔG_1 = -8184.633 cal/ mol

ΔG_1 = -8184.633 * 4.18 J/mol = -34244.508 J?mol

ΔG_1 = -34.245 KL/mol

so, ΔG_2 = ΔG_1 - 10.5 KJ/mol

ΔG_2 = -34.245 - 10.5

ΔG_2 = -44.745KJ / mol

ΔG_2 =RT ln K_D

-44.745 *10^3

=8.314 *298.15 lnK_D

lnK_D' = - 44745 / 2478.81 g

ln K_D' = -18.051

K_D' = -18.051

K_D' = e^-18.051

[D]/[ED] = 5.20

[E] = 2.5* 10 ^-7 mol/ L = a

K_D' = [E][D] / [ED'] E +D' → ED'

K_D' = a/2(x-(a/2) / (a/2)

KD' = x - a/2

=2.447 *10^-8 = (2.5/2) * 10^-7

x=2.447 * 10^-8 + 1.25 * 10^-7

x = 2.447 *10^-8 + 1.25 * 10 ^-7

x= 10^-7 [1.25 + 0.2447]

x = 1.4947 * 10^-7

[D']_T = 1.495* 10 ^-7 M

K_D' = [E][D'] / [ED']

[D'] / [ED'] = KD' / [E]

[D'] / [ED'] = 1.447 *10^-8 / 2.5* 10^-7

[D'] / [ED'] = 0.5788 * 10^-1

[D'] / [ED'] = 0.0579

A weighed piece of magnesium ribbon is added to a dried crucible, which is reweighed and heated in air to form the compound MgO.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

One of the errors for low percentage of magnesium could be because not all the magnesium may have reacted.

Explanation:

During the heating process, if the magnesium have not reacted completely, it can lead to low percentage of magnesium in the oxide formed. The product may still look a bit greyish rather than whitish after the heating process.

1. Gases are made up of molecules which are relatively far apart.2. The molecules are in motion at high speeds.3. The molecular

Katen [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Molecules of a gas are relatively more compressible than those of liquids and solids because they are relatively far apart without any intermolecular forces between them. However, at lower temperature and higher pressure, there is now a significant intermolecular interaction between the gas molecules and they are no longer relatively far apart. Hence they are more compressible than liquids and solids which already possess significant intermolecular interaction and thus a definite volume.

1. A gas having the following composition is burnt under a boiler with 50% excess air.

jeka94

The composition of the stack gas are :

$CH_4$ = 0.8713

$C_3H_8$ = 0.0202

CO = 0.107

<h3 /><h3>What is a mole fraction?</h3>

The ratio of the number of moles of one component of a solution or other mixture to the total number of moles representing all of the components.

Assuming 100 g of the stack gas. Calculate the mass of each species in this sample according to their percentages.

Mass of $CH_4$ : 70% of 100 g = 70 g

Mass of $C_3H_8$ : 15% of 100 g = 15 g

Mass of CO : 15% of 100 g = 15 g

Now calculate the number of moles of each species:

Number of moles of $CH_4$ : $\frac{70 g}{16.04 g/mol}$ = 4.3 mole
