Explain why desert soils tend to be rich in minerals but poor in topsoil

Chemistry
1 answer:
wlad13 [49]3 years ago
7 0
Desert soil has poor topsoil and hardly any organic material in it.

This is because regularly watered soil provides the perfect environment for certain bacteria, bugs and other organisms to grow which in turn provide quality topsoil.

In a desert with very little rain, the perfect environment is never produced, which results in a lot of minerals but poor topsoil for any quality agriculture to take place.

Depending on the reaction, we could monitor the progress towards equilibrium by observing __________.
Alex Ar [27]

Depending on the reaction, we could monitor the progress towards equilibrium by observing the concentration of the reactant and the product are equal with time.

<h3>What is equilibrium?</h3>

Equilibrium is a stage of reaction in which the rate of forwarding reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction and equilibrium is stable at the reversible state of mode.

The concentration of reactant and product must also be equal or the same as the time then only it can be an equilibrium reaction.

Therefore equilibrium depends on the reaction, the concentration of the reactant and the product are equal with time.
