They all contain the same element
Answer:
1.239 * 10^8 Kg
Explanation:
Since all the electricity consumed comes from natural gas;
amount of electricity consumed = 700 * 300,000 = 2.1 * 10^8 kWh
So, amount of CO2 consumed is given by;
amount of electricity consumed * amount of CO2 per kWh
Hence,
Amount of CO2 = 2.1 * 10^8 kWh * 0.59 = 1.239 * 10^8 Kg
Below is the list of enthalpies of formation of the compounds involved in the chemical reaction.
HCl: -92.3 kJ/mol
H2: 0
Cl2: 0
Both H2 and Cl2 do not have enthaply of formation because they are pure substances.
Since, in the reaction there are 2 moles of HCl,
Enthalphy of formation = enthalpy of products - enthalphy of reactant/s
= 0 - (-92.3)(2) = +184.6 kJ
Hence, the answer is the first choice.
Less plankton would mean that all the organisms that eat plankton would start to die off because they have no source of energy.
