Answer:

A. Salt is the solute. Water is the solvent.

Explanation:

In a salt situation why is water the solvent and salt is the solute? It is a homogenous mixture in which the solute is dissolved in the solvent. So since the salt is dissolved in the water, the water is the solvent and the salt the solute.

Which of the following best explains why herring gull chicks were one of the first species to exhibit the effects of pollution,
prohojiy [21]
The correct answer is A.
Toxins and various pollutants increase in concentration through the food chain in a process called biomagnification. This means that the organisms on the top of the food chain, like the herring gull, have many times greater concentration of toxins than the lower food chain level organisms because they prey on lower food chain level organisms. If a herring gull ears 100 herrings, it will have a 100x times greater concentration of toxins in its body than a herring.

Which equation satisfies the law of conservation of matter?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. 3O₂ + 2Al → 2AlO₃

Law of conservation of mass states that mass can nether be created nor destroyed in a closed system or chemical reaction i.e. the total mass of the matter always remains the same throughout the chemical or physical change.

For example, in the given reaction 3O₂ + 2Al → 2AlO₃ the total mass of the reactants is equal to the total mass of the product.

Mass of oxygen = 16 x 3 = 48 AMU

Mass of aluminium = 2 x 27 = 54 AMU

Total molecular mass of the reactants = 102 AMU

Total molecular mass of the product = 2 x 27 + 6 x 8 = 102 AMU.

Hence, the total mass of the matter remains the same.

why might it be beneficial to regulate what species of plats and animals people are allowed to own in particular environments
Neko [114]
Hi there!

Regulating species and plants in a certain area is beneficial for a lot of reasons. Below I'll list one of the most important reasons for regulating.

- Invasive species. As a direct result of the danger invasive species pose, regulating animals and plants in an area can help reduce the risk of a non-native species wrecking havoc on the environment. In the past and as of today many pet owners buy plants and animals from across the globe. Once they get too big some release them into the environment without any regards for the potential disaster it could bring. An example of this would be the Burmese Python which completely upset the ecosystem of souther Florida once let loose.
