Answer: Yes, it is called as thermal pollution

Thermal pollution can be defined as the degradation of the quality of water by any processes that are known to change the water temperature.

As the temperature of water bodies increases, the green algae may be replaced by cyanobacteria. One of the main problems with thermal pollution is the replacement of cold water fishes with the warm water.

Industrial factories and power plants are the main contributors of thermal pollution

The warm water changes the metabolism pattern of the fishes, it increases their metabolism, which leads to malnutrition as a result of that all the fishes die. Warm water also depletes the dissolved oxygen and increases the level of bacteria. It will result in abundant of nutrients, will lead to overpopulation of aquatic life. As a result of increased algal growth, other aquatic animals are not able to grow because of a lack of photosynthesis, they die because of a lack of oxygen, which will pollute the marine environment.

Read the example. A phone rang in the concert hall the orchestra stopped playing. What common sentence-construction error does t
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is "run-on sentence".

Explanation:

Run-out sentence is a sentence-construction error that occurs when two or more than two independent sentences are not properly connected. In the example, the independent sentences "a phone rang in the concert hall" and "the orchestra stopped playing" were not properly connected, because no connector was used between them. Therefore, the question states an example of a run-out sentence.

Match each atom to the corresponding number of electrons it will steal or give away.
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

1. Fluorine (7 electrons) => c. steals 1 electron

2. Calcium (2 electrons) => a. gives away 2 electrons

3. Oxygen (6 electrons) => d. steals 2 electrons

4. Lithium (1 electron) => e. gives away 1 electron

5. Xenon (8 electrons) => b. neither gives away nor steals any electron

Explanation:

Given the following valence electrons of the atoms listed above, each atom can be matched to its corresponding number of electrons it can steal or give away as they form bonds and attain a stable state:

1. Fluorine (7 electrons) => this will steal 1 electron from another atom to attain a stable state when it comes to make the number of electrons 8.

2. Calcium with 2 valence electrons, will give away this 2 electrons in its outer shell to be stable and form bond with another atom that will accept these 2 electrons.

3. Oxygen with 2 valence electrons, will steal 2 electrons to make the electrons in its outer shell 8, as it bonds with another atom to become stable.

4. Lithium will give away 1 electron to become stable when it combines.

5. Xenon with 8 electrons in its outer shell is in a stable state and kind of inert. It doesn't need to receive or steal any electron from or to any other atom in this state.
