what might cause the goldfish population to drop if the temperature moves out of its normal range? Name three things
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Appearing disoriented, such as swimming upside down.

Leaving food uneaten.

White spots on fins or body.

Discolored gills.

Explanation:

Gold Fish are unable to regulate their body temperature, so they are influenced by the temperature around them. If the water is warm, gold fish metabolism accelerates, feeding and respiration increases, and there is a general increase in movement. If the water is cooler, fish become lethargic and tend to be inactive.

A 10.0 L balloon contains helium gas at a pressure of 655 mmHg. What is the final pressure, in millimeters of mercury, if the fi
joja [24]

Answer:

474.64mmHg

Explanation:

From the question given, we obtained the following:

V1 = 10L

P1 = 655mmHg

V2 = 13.8L

P2 =?

P1V1 = P2V2

10 x 655 = P2 x 13.8

Divide both side by the coefficient P2 i.e 13.8

P2 = (10 x 655) / 13.8

P2 = 474.64mmHg

Therefore, the new pressure will be 474.64mmHg

What is the oxidation number of chlorine in HClO4?
Elza [17]

CIO4-=-1

CI=4O=-1

O has a 2- oxidation change so

CI+4(-2)=-1

CI+(-8)=-1

CI=-1+8=7

So the oxidation number of chlorine is 7 in this case

Which reaction is a decomposition reaction? A. 2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2 B. 4Na + O2 → 2Na2O C. ZnS + 3O2 → 2ZnO + 2SO2 D. 2NaBr + CaF
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

  • <em><u>Option A. </u></em><u><em>2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂</em></u>

Explanation:

There are five basic general types of chemical reactions:

  • Decomposition reactions
  • Synthesis or combination reaction
  • Single replacement reactions
  • Double replacement reactions
  • Combustion reactions

The given reactions are:

  • <u>2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂</u>

Which is, indeed, a decomposition reaction because the reactant, KClO₃, is a single substance that undergoes a reaction in which it yields two new substances, known as products: KCl and O₂.

  • <u>4Na + O₂ → 2Na₂O</u> is a synthesis or combination reaction because two reactants, Na and O₂, combine for the formation of one single new product, Na₂O.

  • <u>ZnS + 3 O₂ →  2ZnO + 2SO₂ </u>is a single replacement reaction because oxygen is replacing Zn and S in ZnS to form ZnO and plus SO₂.

  • <u>2NaBr + CaF₂ → 2NaF + CaBr₂ </u>is a double replacement reaction because two  ions (Br⁻ from NaBr and F⁻ from CaF₂) are exchanging places with other two ions (Na⁺ from NaBr and Ca²⁺ from CaF₂) two form two new ionic compounds (NaF and CaBr₂).
