Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

The resources that can be regenerated again over a specific period of time are known as renewable resources. For example, Wind, Water, and Sunlight.

Water is one of the most necessary and valuable renewable resources. It is considered to be renewable because it can be obtained again and again by undergoing certain processes that form a cycle which is commonly known as the water cycle.

In the water cycle, the water moves from the surface to the atmosphere in the form of vapor by undergoing the process of evaporation and transpiration and comes back to the surface in the form of rainfall, by undergoing the process of condensation.

This is how water changes its phase from one type to another, recycling within the system, thereby regenerating it. So, water is usually classified as a renewable resource.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

What is the molarity (M) of chloride ions in a solution prepared by mixing 155 ml of 0.276 M calcium chloride with 384 ml of 0.4

sesenic [268]

Answer: The concentration of $Cl^-$ ions in the resulting solution is 1.16 M.

Explanation:

To calculate the molarity of the solution after mixing 2 solutions, we use the equation:

$M=\frac{n_1M_1V_1+n_2M_2V_2}{V_1+V_2}$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of the $CaCl_2$

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of the $AlCl_3$

We are given:

$n_1=2\\M_1=0.276M\\V_1=155mL\\n_2=3\\M_2=0.471M\\V_2=384mL$

Putting all the values in above equation, we get

$M=\frac{(2\times 0.276\times 155)+(3\times 0.471\times 384)}{155+384}\\\\M=1.16M$

The concentration of $Cl^-$ ions in the resulting solution will be same as the molarity of solution which is 1.16 M.

Hence, the concentration of $Cl^-$ ions in the resulting solution is 1.16 M.
