Answer: The correct answer is option(A).

Explanation:

Regolith is defined as layer which is composed of heterogeneous, loose, uppermost deposits covering the solid rock. They complete different from soil. It includes dust, soil, broken rocks and other related material. They arenot only present on earth but on another terrestrial bodies also like : moon ,asteroids ,mars etc.

So, from the enlisted option the correct description of regolith is given by option(A). Hence, option(A) is correct.

Ksju [112]

Answer:

When hypercapnia processes occur, where the concentration of carbon dioxide gas increases in the blood, the protonization of the blood increases, this means that the H + ions increase in concentration, thus generating metabolic acidosis.

This metabolic acidosis is regulated by various systems, but the respiratory system collaborates by generating hyperventilation, to increase blood oxygen pressures, decrease CO2 emissions, and indirectly decrease acidity.

Explanation:

This method of regulating the body is crucial, since the proteins in our body will not be altered if they do not happen.

The enzymes, the red globules, and many more fundamental things for life ARE PROTEINS, that in front of acidic media these modify their structure by denaturing themselves and ceasing to fulfill their functions. This is the reason why it seeks to neutralize the blood pH when it comes to an increase in CO2.

Newton's second law of motion is F = ma.
ZanzabumX [31]

<u>Answer:</u> The acceleration of the object is 2m/s^2. If net force increases, acceleration will also increase and if mass increases, the acceleration will decrease.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Force is defined as the product of object's mass and acceleration.

Mathematically,

F = ma     ......(1)

or,

a = F/m      .....(2)

where,

F = Force exerted on an object = 60N

m = mass of an object = 30kg

a = acceleration of the object = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

a = 60 kg.m/s^2/30 kg = 2m/s^2

The acceleration of the car is 2m/s^2.

From equation 2, it is visible that acceleration is directly proportional to force. This means that \if force increases, acceleration also increases.

And acceleration is inversely proportional to mass of the object. This means that if mass increases, the acceleration decreases.

Hence, if net force increases, acceleration will also increase and if mass increases, the acceleration will decrease.

PLEASE HELP!!!
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

(a) oxygen

(b) 154g (to 3sf)

(c) 79.9% (to 3sf)

Explanation:

mass (g) = moles × Mr/Ar

note: eqn means chemical equation

(a)

moles of P = 84.1 ÷ 30.973 = 2.7152 moles

moles of O2 = 85÷2(16) = 2.65625 moles

Assuming all the moles of P is used up,

moles of O2 / moles of phosphorus = 5/4 (according to balanced chemical eqn)

moles of O2 required = 5/4 × 2.7152moles = 3.394 moles (more than supplied which is 2.65625moles)

therefore there is insufficient moles of O2 and the limiting reactant is oxygen.

(b)

moles of P2O5 produced

= 2/5 (according to eqn) × 2.7152

= 1.08608moles

mass of P2O5 produced

= 1.08608 × [ 2(30.973) + 5(16) ]

= 154.164g

= approx. 154g to 3 sig. fig.

(c)

% yield = actual/theoretical yield × 100%

= 123/154 × 100%

= 79.870%

= approx. 79.9% (to 3sf)
