The primary reason that large numbers of people left Ireland in the 1840s and 1850s was MASS STARVATION.

Great Famine or Great Hunger was a period in Ireland where mass starvation, diseases, and emigration occurred between 1845 to 1852.

The Great Famine was caused by Phytophthora infestans, a disease that infests in potatoes. Though the potato infestation spread throughout Europe, it greatly affected Ireland, where 1/3 of its population was dependent on the potato crop as their primary source of food.

The loss of their primary source of food led to mass starvation, sickness, and eventual death. Others opted to leave Ireland and seek shelter and food in other countries to survive.

The total concentration of ions in a 0.75 M solution of HCl is
EastWind [94]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

The total concentration of ions in a 0.75 M solution of HCl is 1.5 M

That is; 0.75 M H⁺ and 0.75 M Cl⁻

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Concentration or molarity is the number of moles of a compound or an ion contained in one liter of solution. It is measured in moles per liter (M).
  • The concentration of ions making a compound is determined by the ratio of moles of the compound and the constituents ions.
  • For instance, HCl dissociates to give H⁺ and Cl⁻

       HCl(aq) → H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

  • Therefore, since the mole ratio between HCl and the constituent ions H⁺ and Cl⁻ is 1:1, then 0.75 M of HCl dissociates to give 0.75 M H⁺ and 0.75 m Cl⁻
  • Hence the total concentration of ions in a 0.75 M solution of HCl is 1.5 M (0.75 M H⁺ and 0.75 M Cl⁻)

Which of the following represents radiant energy being converted to chemical energy?
Arte-miy333 [17]
ANSWER

The correct answer is A

EXPLANATION

Plants manufacture their on food by the process of photosynthesis. During this process, plants trap radiant energy from the sun by the help of chlorophyll in the leaves.

Radiant energy with other raw materials such as water, carbon dioxide and mineral salts is converted to food (in the form of starch) which contains chemical energy.
