Answer:

Explanation:

Mass percent is defined as the mass of an element divided by the sum of masses of all the elements multiplied by 100. It is generally used to define the concentration. It does not depend on concentration.

It is given as;

Mass percent = (mass of an element / Total mass of the compound ) × 100

Mass of  compound (alloy) = 78.2 g copper  + 103.5 g zinc +2.8 g lead = 184.5 g

(a) Cu

Mass of Cu = 78.2

Mass percent = (78.2 / 184.5) * 100 = 42.38%

(a) Zn

Mass of Zn = 103.5

Mass percent = (103.5 / 184.5) * 100 = 56.10%

(c) Pb

Mass of Pb = 2.8

Mass percent = (2.8 / 184.5) * 100 = 1.52%

In an estuary, _____.
lapo4ka [179]

B; Seawater mixes with freshwater so the water has intermediate salinity

Explanation:

In an estuary, seawater mixes with freshwater so the water has intermediate salinity. Estuaries are usually located in transitional environments.

  • Estuary is the wide part of a river where it nears the sea.
  • This is called a transitional zone.
  • Water from continental rivers usually fresh are brought in close contact with ocean water that is salty.
  • The water here is said to be brackish as it is intermediate between salt and seawater.
  • Organisms living in such terrain must be be well adapted to changing salinity.

What are the reasons global warming is caused my humans and animals. Plz help 100 points
pantera1 [17]
Global Warming has been increased by living organisms like animals and humans by many ways:

1) We burn fossil fuels, which is very bad for our Environment's health
2) Animals like cows & buffalo produces a lot of methane which causes Global Warming.
3) Animals cut a lot of trees for their products, so increase the amount of Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, thus increases Global Warming.
4) We don't minimize our dependence on Non-renewable source of energy which 'causes a lot of pollution in the environment

Hope this helps!
