Answer:

Recycling and reuse of materials

Explanation:

One of the greatest problems facing the human population is the problem of solid waste disposal. The menace of solid waste disposal has led to the idea of landfills. Land fills are depressions on the earth surface prepared for the purpose of solid waste disposal.

The most important approach towards solid waste disposal is the idea of recycling of materials. A material can be collected after use and processed into the same material or serve as a precursor in another manufacturing process. This means that no waste is generated as the materials which are supposed to be disposed of as solid waste are processed into other useful materials. This will reduce the volume of solid wastes generated that may need to be disposed in a landfill.

Draw the 2 resonance structures of Malachite Green, and indicate which one is the equivalent contributor, and which one is the m

Yuri [45]

The two structures at the right of the image are the greatest contributors to the resonance structure of malachite green.

<h3>What is resonance structure?</h3>

In some cases, one single structure is insufficient to explain the properties of a substance. Now, we know that in such cases we have to invoke more than one structure in order to efficiently discuss the chemistry of the compounds in question.

In this case, we can see from the image that the three structures of malachite green are all resonance structures. However, the two structures at the right hand side are the greatest contributors because they are more conjugated. Hence, the two structures at the right of the image are the greatest contributors to the resonance structure of malachite green.

HELP ME I AM DUMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

densk [106]

Answer:

2H⁺(aq) + Sr(OH)₂(s) ⟶ Sr²⁺(aq) + 2H₂O(ℓ)

Explanation:

You aren't dumb. You just need more time to learn the concepts.

There are three steps you must follow. You must write the:

Molecular equation
Ionic equation
Net ionic equation

1. Molecular equation

2HBr + Sr(OH)₂ ⟶ SrBr₂ + 2H₂O

To predict the states of the substances, we must remember some solubility rules:

HBr is a strong acid. It dissociates completely in water.
Most hydroxides are only slightly soluble. Unless the solution is quite dilute, I would write their states in water as "(s)", i.e., a suspension of the solid in water.
Salts containing Br⁻ are generally soluble.

Acids and bases react to give salts and water.

Thus, the molecular equation is

2HBr(aq) + Sr(OH)₂(s) ⟶ SrBr₂(aq) + 2H₂O(ℓ)

B. Ionic equation

You write all the soluble substances as ions.

2H⁺(aq)+ 2Br⁻(aq) + Sr(OH)₂(s) ⟶ Sr²⁺(aq) + 2Br⁻(aq) + 2H₂O(ℓ)

C. Net ionic equation

To get the net ionic equation, you cancel the ions that appear on each side of the ionic equation.

2H⁺(aq) + <u>2Br⁻(aq)</u> + Sr(OH)₂(s) ⟶ Sr²⁺(aq) + <u>2Br⁻(aq)</u> + 2H₂O(ℓ)

The net ionic equation is

2H⁺(aq) + Sr(OH)₂(s) ⟶ Sr²⁺(aq) + 2H₂O(ℓ)
