Which resources are significantly polluted by heavy metals like mercury? A. soil B. water C. neither A nor B D. both A and B

Chemistry
1 answer:
Firdavs [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

Mercury is occurs in earth crust but its mining ,combustion of fossil fuel and extraction had led to spreading of mercury pollution not only on lands but in air and water bodies also.  

Mercury settled on land get washed way into water bodies which further gets introduced in life process of living beings in the water and eventually effecting the whole food chain or web.

Hence, from the the given options the correct option is (D).

A laser produces red light of wavelength 632.8 nm. Calculate the energy,
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

189.2 KJ

Explanation:

Data Given

wavelength of the light = 632.8 nm

Convert nm to m

1 nm = 1 x 10⁻⁹

632.8 nm = 632.8 x 1 x 10⁻⁹ = 6.328 x 10⁻⁷m

Energy of 1 mole of photon = ?

Solution

Formula used

                     E = hc/λ

where

E = energy of photon

h = Planck's Constant

Planck's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js

c = speed of light

speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ ms⁻¹

λ = wavelength of light

Put values in above equation

                   E = hc/λ

                   E = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js ( 3 × 10⁸ ms⁻¹ / 6.328 x 10⁻⁷m)

                   E = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js (4.741 x 10¹⁴s⁻¹)

                  E = 3.141 x 10⁻¹⁹J

3.141 x 10⁻¹⁹J is energy for one photon

Now we have to find energy of 1 mole of photon

As we know that

1 mole consists of  6.022 x10²³ numbers of photons

So,

     Energy for one mole photons = 3.141 x 10⁻¹⁹J x  6.022 x10²³

     Energy for one mole photons = 1.89 x 10⁵ J

Now convert J to KJ

1000 J = 1 KJ

1.89 x 10⁵ J = 1.89 x 10⁵ /1000 = 189.2 KJ

So,

energy of one mole of photons = 189.2 KJ

Gaseous ammonia chemically reacts with oxygen O2 gas to produce nitrogen monoxide gas and water vapor. Calculate the moles of am
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

1.7 moles of ammonia, NH₃.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

4NH₃ + 5O₂ —> 4NO + 6H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of NH₃ reacted to produce 4 moles of NO.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of ammonia, NH₃, needed to produce 1.7 moles of nitrogen monoxide, NO. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of NH₃ reacted to produce 4 moles of NO.

Therefore, 1.7 moles of NH₃ will also react to produce 1.7 moles of NO.

Thus, 1.7 moles of ammonia, NH₃, is required.

Consider the anion whose charge is 2- and whose electron configuration is identical to argon. what is the symbol for this anion
AleksAgata [21]

If the ion is negatively charged, anion, it means that it gains two electrons from its surroundings. The number of electrons of an argon (neutral atom) is 18. Two of the electrons in our anion is from the surrounding, so originally it only has 16 electrons.

In the periodic table, the 16th element is sulphur. The chemical symbol of sulphur is S. Thus, the anion is the negatively charged sulphur with chemical symbol of S2-.

What is the mass of 6.75 moles of CO₂?
ikadub [295]
Hi there!
Thank you for choosing Brainly.

1 mole = 44.0095

So take that number and multiply it by 6.75.

You then get... 297.0641

Have a nice day.
