Why is water clarity an important measure of water quality?

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 :)

Answer : The time passed in years is $2.74\times 10^2\text{ years}$

Explanation :

Half-life of carbon-14 = 5730 years

First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :

$k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}$

$k=\frac{0.693}{5730\text{ years}}$

$k=1.21\times 10^{-4}\text{ years}^{-1}$

Now we have to calculate the time passed.

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$

where,

k = rate constant = $1.21\times 10^{-4}\text{ years}^{-1}$

t = time passed by the sample = ?

a = initial amount of the reactant disintegrate = 15.3

a - x = amount left after decay process = 14.8

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

$t=\frac{2.303}{1.21\times 10^{-4}}\log\frac{15.3}{14.8}$

$t=274.64\text{ years}=2.74\times 10^2\text{ years}$

Therefore, the time passed in years is $2.74\times 10^2\text{ years}$

Given 7.45 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol, how many grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized, assuming a complete 100

KengaRu [80]

The equation for the reaction is:

C₄H₈O₂ + C₂H₅OH = C₆H₁₂O₂ + H₂O

Now you see that the number of the moles of butanoic acid and etyl butyrate is equal in

the reaction. That means;

number of moles of C₄H₈O₂ = number of moles of C₆H₁₂O₂

mass of C₄H₈O₂/ Molar mass of C₄H₈O₂ = mass of C₆H₁₂O₂/ molar mass of C₆H₁₂O₂

mass of C₆H₁₂O₂ = molar mass of C₆H₁₂O₂ x mass of C₄H₈O₂/ Molar mass of C₄H₈O₂

Now, assuming <span>100% yield, the mass of ethyl butyrate produced is: </span>

<span>= 7.45/88.11 x 116.16</span>

<span>=9.82g</span>

<span>Thus, the theoretical yield of ethyl butyrate is 9.82g.</span>
