Well, human destruction, pollution and overpopulation could all be threats to coral reefs.

There are several threats to coral reefs; however, a few are over fishing, fishing using dynamite, agriculture and sewage pollution, and massive outbreaks of starfish. Hope this helps.

In the combined gas law, if the volume is decreased, what happens to the temperature if pressure remains constant?
Flura [38]

The correct answer is A. In the combined gas law, if the volume is decreased and the pressure is constant, then the temperature decreases.

 <span>P1V1/ T1 = P2V2 / T2</span>

 <span>Assume the volume decrease by half; V2 = V1/2</span>

 <span>P1V1/ T1 = P2V1 /2 T2</span>

 <span>Cancelling terms,</span>

 <span>1/T1 = 1/2 T2</span>

T2 = T1/2

 <span>Thus, the temperature decreased.</span>

The thermal decomposition of N2O5 obeys first-order kinetics. At 45°C, a plot of ln[N2O5] versus t gives a slope of −6.40 × 10−4
finlep [7]

Answer:

  • <u>1,080 min</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

A <em>first order reaction</em> follows the law:

     rate=k[A]  , where [A] is the concentraion of the reactant A.

Equivalently:

       \dfrac{d[A]}{dt}=-k[A]

Integrating:

    \dfrac{d[A]}{[A]}=-kdt

   \ln \dfrac{[A]}{[A_o]}=-kt

Half-life means [A]/[A₀] = 1/2, t = t½:

  •    t½ = ln (2) / k

That means that the half-life is constant.

The slope of the plot of ln [N₂O₅]  is -k. Then k is equal to 6.40 × 10⁻⁴ min⁻¹.

Thus, you can calculate t½:

   t½ = ln(2) / 6.40 × 10⁻⁴ min⁻¹

   t½ = 1,083 min.

Rounding to 3 significant figures, that is 1,080 min.

What do we call the lines around the nucleus of an atom?
nasty-shy [4]

Explanation:

As you know, electrons are always moving. They spin very quickly around the nucleus of an atom. As the electrons zip around, they can move in any direction, as long as they stay in their shell. Any direction you can imagine — upwards, downwards, or sidewards — electrons can do it. Electrons are constantly spinning in those atomic shells and those shells, or orbitals, are specific distances from the nucleus. If you are an electron in the first shell, you are always closer to the nucleus than the electrons in the second shell.
