Why is water clarity an important measure of water quality?

1 answer:

8 0

Water clarity is important in water habitats. The amount of sunlight that reaches underwater plants depends on water clarity. The plants will die if they cannot get enough sunlight, and we need the water to be clean and clear so the sunlight reaches the plants. Hope that helps :)

What are deltaTb and deltaTf for an aqueous solution that is 1.5g nacl in 0.250kg h2o? Given Kb=0.51 C/m and kr=1.86 C/m

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

$T_f$ for given question is 2.79 and $T_b$ is 0.52

$\Delta T_b = I \times K_b \times m$ {i- vant hoff’s constant ; Kb- constant ; m molarity }

M = no. of moles of the solute present in one kg of solution

Let the weight of amount of solute be “w” and its molecular mass be “M”

Let the mass of the solvent in the given question be “x”

$\Delta T_b = I \times K_b \times (w/M)/ x$

$\Delta T_b = I \times K_b \times w/Mx$

$\Delta T_b = 1 \times 0.51 \times1.5/(0.250 \times 58.44) = 0.052$

$\Delta T_f = M \times K_f = 1.86 \times 1.5 = 2.79$

The potential energy diagram shows the gain and loss of potential energy as water molecules decompose into hydrogen and oxygen.

Dovator [93]

Answer:

The diagram with the five labels of the parts is in the image attached. Please, see the image.

Explanation:

1) General explanation: a potential chemical energy diagram is used to show how the reactants gain energy until they reach the activation energy, form the activated complex, and release part of the energy to form the products.

The difference between the chemical potential energy of the products and the reactants is the enthalpy of the reaction:

ΔH rxn = ΔH products - ΔH reactants.

The labels that correspond to each part of the diagram are explained next.

2) Reactants:

This is the substances at the start, so they appear on the left bottom side of the diagram.

3) Activation energy:

It is the energy that the reactants must reach (the highest point) in order to the reaction occurs.

4) Activated complex:

This is the intermediate state and of highest energy. The reactants have formed a complex at mid way between the reactants and the products.

5) Products:

These are the substances formed when the reaction is completed. They are lower in energy than the activated complex. They can be either higher or lower in energy than the reactants. The products are shown to the right of the diagram.

6) Enthalpy of the reaction:

The enthalpy of the reaction is the difference in energy of the products and the reactants. In this case, since, the products are higher in energy, it means that the reaction absorbed energy and it is an endothermic reaction.

Demand decreases and competition increases are factors that cause a shift in the quantity supplied (true or false)

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer is: true.

Demand decreases and competition increases decrease the quantity supplied.

Quantity supplied is the quantity of a commodity that producers are willing to sell at a particular price at a particular point of time.

Quantity demanded is the quantity of a commodity that people are willing to buy at a particular price at a particular point of time.

Quantity demanded can change at the same price depending upon factors like recession, changes in the taste of the consumer.

Competition is rivalry between two or more economic groups.
