Quick! And no guessing! What are some pros and cons of using biomass as an energy.

Pros- We wouldn't need to use fossil fuels as much (which we have a limited supply of) and we have an unlimited supply when using Biomass as enegy.
It actually produces more oxygen when growing biomass crops and uses up carbon dioxide.

While for cons...
There's more work when it comes to growing and handling these crops, and this lifestyle in general.
more money and resources that we do not always have.
We don't always have a certain animal waste - which can slow down the process a little more if there's not enough of a certain thing. But of course referencing the pro side of things - we will always be able to produce biomass energy through things such as dead plants, etc.
I hope this helps, and you pass! Good luck, rockstar! (:

Well some pros are that it will help reduce green house gases. That would be a major effect. Also another pro is that biomass like plants are easily able to be regrown and wouldn't cost nearly as much as some of the power plants we have today. Also another benefit of biomass would be that it can reproduce on its own like orange skins trees banana peels, also the outside of pineapple all of that is biomass meaning that it is mass quantity already inside us. Cons are that if we burn biomass and shut down several power plants in america many will lose jobs. Another con is that even if it is quickly regrowable it would take alot of land to keep as a main power source. Also if we switched biomass to our main energy then we would have to rely on our soil which would be bad because imagine we have a drought or something. We wouldnt have power. These are just a few pros and cons of biomass. Their are many more but unfortunately have to help someone else. Hope I helped you enough though.

An endothermic reaction proceeds in the forward direction. Which of the following statements will be true if the temperature at
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The correct answers are:

<em>c. The concentrations of the products decrease</em>

<em>d. The equilibrium constant decreases</em>

Explanation:

Changes in temperature shift the equilibrium. In this problem, the reaction is endothermic, so it absorbs heat so heat is considered as a reactant:

Reactants + heat ⇒ Products

If the temperature is decreased, the heat is decreased, so reactants are removed from the reaction at equilibrium. According to Le Chaterlier's principle, the system will try to compensate the produced change. If reactants are removed, the systems will form reactants and the equilibrium will shift toward the left (formation of more reactants). In consequence, the amount of products will be decreased.

Thus, acorrect option is: c. The concentrations of the products decrease.

Since the equilibrium constant is given by the ratio of concentration of products over concentration of reactants, if the concentration of products decrease, the equilibrium constant also decreases. So, another correct option is: d. The equilibrium constant decreases.

What are “condensation nuclei”?
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Cloud condensation nuclei or CCNs are small particles typically 0.2 µm, or 1/100 the size of a cloud droplet on which water vapor condenses. Water requires a non-gaseous surface to make the transition from a vapour to a liquid; this process is called condensation.

What is the solubility in moles/liter for calcium phosphate at 25°C given a Ksp value of 1.2 x 10^-29. Write using scientific no
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ca₃( PO₄)₂ = 3 Ca⁺² + 2 PO₄⁻³

x                      3x            2 x

Let solubility be x mole per litre

solubility product = (3x )³ x ( 2x )²

= 108 x⁵ = 1.2 x 10⁻²⁹

x⁵ = .0111 x 10⁻²⁹ = .111 x 10⁻³⁰

x = .64 x 10⁻⁶ moles / litre

What are the three important functions of the atmosphere ?
Shkiper50 [21]

The atmosphere protects life on earth by shielding it from incoming ultraviolet (UV) radiation, keeping the planet warm through insulation, and preventing extremes between day and night temperatures.

<h3>What is the atmosphere?</h3>

An atmosphere is the layers of gases surrounding a planet or other celestial body.

The three important functions of the atmosphere are:

1. The atmosphere protects life on earth by preventing it from incoming ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

2. The atmosphere keeps the planet warm through the insulation effect.

3. The atmosphere maintains extremes between day and night temperatures.
