Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

The O horizon is the top layer of the soil, which occurs as both thick and thin soil at different places, and it is absent in certain places. It is comprised of organic matter which mainly includes the decomposed leaves and also sometimes, the dead remains of animals are also found which enhances the quality of the soil. This layer is also known as the humus or organic layer.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

Solutions of lead(II) nitrate and potassium iodide were combined in a test tube.

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Explanation: When solutions of potassium iodide and lead nitrate are combined?

The lead nitrate solution contains particles (ions) of lead, and the potassium iodide solution contains particles of iodide. When the solutions mix, the lead particles and iodide particles combine and create two new compounds, a yellow solid called lead iodide and a white solid called potassium nitrate. Chemical Equation Balancer Pb(NO3)2 + KI = KNO3 + PbI2. Potassium iodide and lead(II) nitrate are combined and undergo a double replacement reaction. Potassium iodide reacts with lead(II) nitrate and produces lead(II) iodide and potassium nitrate. Potassium nitrate is water soluble. The reaction is an example of a metathesis reaction, which involves the exchange of ions between the Pb(NO3)2 and KI. The Pb+2 ends up going after the I- resulting in the formation of PbI2, and the K+ ends up combining with the NO3- forming KNO3. NO3- All nitrates are soluble. ... (Many acid phosphates are soluble.)

Which of the answer choices correctly describes a solvent made of molecules that have areas of partial positive and negative cha

damaskus [11]

Answer: polar solvent

Explanation:

Polarity can be said to mean, charge separation. Thus, polar solvents are solvents that have charge separation and the ability to solvate i.e dissolve ions.

A polar solvent molecule has slight electrical charge as a result of its shape. A typical and most common example is water, with an oxygen and two hydrogen atoms. The two hydrogen atoms are at an angle to the single oxygen atom. Water is the classic polar solvent. The oxygen atom tends to polarize electron density to itself.
