Effect of fossil fuel emission on oceans?

1 answer:

7 0

Fossil fuel emissions can create acid rain, which in turn increases the pH of ocean water, harming the organisms in the ocean.

Even though water is a liquid, some insects are able to stand on its surface due to water's high surface tension. Unbalanced for

jeka57 [31]

The answer is letter C. hydrogen bonds. Surface tension in water, which makes water form drops and causes the surface to form a curve above the mouth of a container, results from the water molecules being strongly held by H bonds to those water molecules beside and beneath them. The cohesion among water molecules and the adhesion of water to other materials like rock and soil make capillarity possible.

Please Balanced this Equation

Scilla [17]

Answer:

$\rm {Cr_2O_7}^{2-} + 6 \; Fe^{2+} + \underbrace{\rm 14\; H^{+}}_{\text{From}\atop \text{Acid}}\to 2\; Cr^{3+} + 6\; Fe^{3+} + 7\; H_2 O$ .

Explanation:

Consider the oxidation state on each of the element:

Left-hand side:

O: -2 (as in most compounds);
Cr: $\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}(\underbrace{-2}_{\text{ion}} - \underbrace{7\times (-2)}_{\text{Oxygen}}) = +6$ ;
Fe: +2 (from the charge of the ion);

Right-hand side:

Cr: +3;
Fe: +3.

Change in oxidation state:

Each Cr atom: decreases by 3 (reduction).
Each Fe atom: increases by 1 (oxidation).

Changes in oxidation states shall balance each other in redox reactions. Thus, for each Cr atom on the left-hand side, there need to be three Fe atoms.

Assume that the coefficient of the most complex species $\rm Cr_2O_7^{2-}$ is 1. There will be two Cr atoms and hence six Fe atoms on the left-hand side. Additionally, there are going to be seven O atoms.

Atoms are conserved in chemical reactions. As a result, the right-hand side of this equation will contain

two Cr atoms,
six Fe atoms, and
seven O atoms.

O atoms seldom appear among the products in acidic environments; they rapidly combine with $\rm H^{+}$ ions to produce water $\rm H_2O$ . Seven O atoms will make seven water molecules. That's fourteen H atoms and hence fourteen $\rm H^{+}$ ions on the product side of this equation. Hence the balanced equation. Double check to ensure that the charges on the ions also balance.

$\rm {Cr_2O_7}^{2-} + 6 \; Fe^{2+} + \underbrace{\rm 14\; H^{+}}_{\text{From}\atop \text{Acid}}\to 2\; Cr^{3+} + 6\; Fe^{3+} + 7\; H_2 O$ .
