Allushta [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

gas fracking is a process of drilling into the surface of the earth and injecting the rocks with a mixture of chemicals, sand and water at high pressure t release gas.

Explanation:

environmental impacts of gas fracking.

1. during fracking a chemical called methane is released into the atmosphere which is a greenhouse gas and thus pollutes the air

2. Fracking uses gallons of water. Thus, during this process a lot of water is wasted and that directly causes the shortage of clean and hygienic water available for the surrounding residents.

3. It is also a cause for soil degradation and soil pollution. fracking is a high risk potential for oil spill which degrades the soil. It also harms the vegetation around the fracking site.

4. Due to high pressure used during fracking, it may also cause natural disasters like earthquakes.

102 grams.
Equation:
Quantify of heat = mass x specific heat x difference in temperature
We have: quantity of heat : 2300J
specific heat: .449 J/g
difference in t: 80 - 30 = 50
Solve for mass: 2300 = mass x 0.449 x 50
mass = 102.449
2 sig-figs --> 102 grams

Predict the reactivity of silicon in water relative to that of sodium, magnesium, and aluminium. Explain your answer. How does t
Inessa [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The reactivity of metals has a lot to do with their position in the electrochemical series. However, it is also known that metallic character decreases across the period. This implies that as we move from left to right along the periodic table. Sodium, magnesium, aluminum and silicon continues to decrease in metallic character. As a matter of fact, silicon is a metalloid and not a pure metal.

Sodium reacts with cold water to give a vigorous reaction,magnesium and aluminium reacts with steam at red heat.

Silicon does not react with water, even as steam, under normal conditions.
