7. What type of water pollution is produced from chemicals used to kill bugs and weeds?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Serga [27]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Groundwater pollution

Explanation:

Pesticides, when sprayed on crop plants, are able to flow below the surface of the ground, reaching water-bearing aquifers, thereby contaminating groundwater, making it unsuitable for both human and agricultural uses.

draw the lewis structure for CO2, H2CO3, HCO3-, and CO3 2-.Rank these in order of increasing attraction to water molecules. Expl
gavmur [86]

Answer:

The structures are attached in file.

Hydrogen bonding and intermolecular forces is the reason for ranks allotted.

Explanation:

In determining Lewis structure, we calculate the overall number of valence electrons available for bonding.  Making carbon (the least electronegative atom) the central atom in the structure, we allocate valence electrons until each atom has achieved stability.

In order of decreasing affinity to water molecules:

CO_{3}^{2-}  > HCO_{3} ^{2-} > H_{2} CO_{3}

This is due to the fact that the CO_{3}^{2-}will accept protons more readily than the bicarbonate ion, HCO_{3} ^{2-}. Carbonic acid, H_{2} CO_{3} will not accept any more protons, hence it is the least attractive to water molecule, even though soluble.

Where does radioactivity come from?
Aleks04 [339]

Radioactivity comes from unstable atoms of certain elements. Radioactivity consists of alpha radiation (2 protons and 2 neutrons), beta radiation (1 electron), or gamma radiation (Electromagnetic photons).

The gauge pressure inside a vessel is ‐40kPa, at an elevation of 5000m. a) What is the absolute pressure? b) At this elevation,
hoa [83]

Answer:

a) Pabs = 48960 KPa

b) T = 433.332 °C

Explanation:

  • Pabs = Pgauge + d*g* h

∴ d = 1000 Kg/m³

∴ g = 9.8 m/s²

∴ h = 5000 m

∴ P gauge = - 40 KPa * ( 1000 Pa / KPa ) = - 40000 Pa; Pa≡Kg/m*s²

⇒ Pabs = - 40000 Kg/ms² + ( 1000 Kg/m³ * 9.8 m/s² * 5000 m )

⇒ Pabs = 48960000 Pa = 48960 KPa

a) at that height and pressure, we find the temperature at which the water boils by means of an almost-exponential graph which has the following equation:

P(T) = 0.61094 exp ( 17.625*T / ( T + 243.04 ))......P (KPa) ∧ T (°C)....from literature

∴ P = 48960 KPa

⇒ ( 48960 KPa / 0.61094 ) = exp ( 17.625T / (T+ 243.04))

⇒ 80138.803 = exp ( 17.625T / ( T + 243.04))

⇒ Ln ( 80138.803) = 17.625T / ( T + 243.04))

⇒ 11.292 * ( T + 243.04 ) = 17.625T

⇒ 11.292T + 2744.289 = 17.625T

⇒ 2744.289 = 17.625T - 11.292T

⇒ 2744.289 = 6.333T

⇒ T = 433.332 °C
