The table below shows the commonly eaten foods of some organisms.

1 answer:

8 0

Primary consumers eat plants, which are producers. Producers are essentially he beginning of the food chain. Secondary consumers eat primary consumers. This means that organisms who are both primary and secondary consumers are omnivores. In this case, Organism A is a carnivore, Organism B is an omnivore, Organism C is an omnivore, and Organism D is an omnivore. The difference between Organisms C and D is that Organisms C eat insects, which are primary consumers, whereas Organism D eats fish, which are secondary consumers.

Answer: C and D

Hope this helps!

Which of the following is kept constant when using a bomb calorimeter?

trapecia [35]

Constant Volume Calorimetry, also know as bomb calorimetry, is used to measure the heat of a reaction while holding volume constant and resisting large amounts of pressure. Although these two aspects of bomb calorimetry make for accurate results, they also contribute to the difficulty of bomb calorimetry. In this module, the basic assembly of a bomb calorimeter will be addressed, as well as how bomb calorimetry relates to the heat of reaction and heat capacity and the calculations involved in regards to these two topics.

Introduction

Calorimetry is used to measure quantities of heat, and can be used to determine the heat of a reaction through experiments. Usually a coffee-cup calorimeter is used since it is simpler than a bomb calorimeter, but to measure the heat evolved in a combustion reaction, constant volume or bomb calorimetry is ideal. A constant volume calorimeter is also more accurate than a coffee-cup calorimeter, but it is more difficult to use since it requires a well-built reaction container that is able to withstand large amounts of pressure changes that happen in many chemical reactions.

Most serious calorimetry carried out in research laboratories involves the determination of heats of combustion ΔHcombustion" role="presentation" style="display: inline-table; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-size: 14.4px; text-indent: 0px; text-align: left; text-transform: none; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: normal; word-wrap: normal; white-space: nowrap; float: none; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; border: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; position: relative;">ΔHcombustionΔHcombustion, since these are essential to the determination of standard enthalpies of formation of the thousands of new compounds that are prepared and characterized each month. In a constant volume calorimeter, the system is sealed or isolated from its surroundings, and this accounts for why its volume is fixed and there is no volume-pressure work done. A bomb calorimeter structure consists of the following:

Steel bomb which contains the reactantsWater bath in which the bomb is submergedThermometerA motorized stirrerWire for ignition

is usually called a “bomb”, and the technique is known as bomb calorimetry

Another consequence of the constant-volume condition is that the heat released corresponds to qv , and thus to the internal energy change ΔUrather than to ΔH. The enthalpy change is calculated according to the formula

The effective nuclear charge is the amount of charge experienced by an electron taking into account any shielding effects from o

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The nuclear charge increases from boron to carbon, but there is no additional shielding( that is no additional shells).

Explanation:

First of all, we must know the electron configuration of carbon and boron.

Boron- 1s2 2s2 2p1

Carbon- 1s2 2s2 2p2

Moving from boron to carbon, the effective nuclear charge increases without a corresponding increase in the number of shells. Remember that shielding increases with increase in the number of intervening shells between the outermost electron and the nucleus. Since there isn't an increase in shells, boron experience a lower screening effect.

From

Zeff= Z- S

The Z for carbon is 6 while for boron is 5 even though both have the same number of screening electron S(4 screening electrons). Hence it is expected the Zeff(effective nuclear charge) for boron will be less than that of carbon.

An antacid tablet with an active ingredient of CaCO3 was dissolved in 50.0 mL of 0.300 M HCl. When this solution was titrated wi

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

mole of HCl remaining after reaction with CaCO₃

= .3 M of NaOH of 32.47 mL

= .3 x .03247 moles

= .009741 moles

Initial HCl taken = .3 x .005 moles = .0015 moles

Moles of HCl reacted with CaCO₃

= .009741 - .0015 = .008241 moles

CaCO₃ + 2HCl = CaCl₂ + CO₂ + H₂O .

1 mole 2 moles

2 moles of HCl reacts with 1 mole of CaCO₃

.008241 moles of HCl reacts with .5 x .008241 moles of CaCO₃

CaCO₃ reacted with HCl = .5 x .008241 = .00412 moles

the mass (in grams) of calcium carbonate in the tablet

= .00412 x 100 = .412 grams . ( molar mass of calcium carbonate = 100 )
