Why might a major volcanic eruption lead to cooler temperatures of Earth's surface?

Chemistry
1 answer:
EastWind [94]3 years ago
6 0
When a volcano erupts it releases a large amount of dust, smog, rock, and other materials. Basically, these bits and pieces float to form a metaphorical dust cloud. These clouds can often block out the sun like an ordinary cloud; however, because the cloud is dark, even less sun will be able to get through. So because the sun can't reach the ground, the temperature might decrease.

What is the pH of a solution with a concentration of 1.8 × 10-4 molar H3O+?
Andre45 [30]
PH is defined as the negative log of Hydrogen ion concentration. Mathematically we can write this as:

pH=-log[H^{+}]=-log[H_{3}O]

We are given the concentration of H_{3}O. Using the value in formula, we get:

pH=-log[1.8*10^{-4}]=3.745

Therefore, the pH of the solution will be 3.745

Enzymes in the small intestine break down proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. These enzymes are named after the substrate they
svetoff [14.1K]

The enzymes and their respective substrates are as follows:

  • Protease enzymes such as trypsin and chymotrypsin break down proteins
  • Carbohydrate enzymes such amylase and maltase break down carbohydrates
  • Lipase enzyme breaks down lipids.

In the small intestine, a protease enzyme known as chymotrypsin breaks down protein, pancreatic amylase breaks down carbohydrates, while pancreatic lipase breaks down lipids.

Equal molar quantities of Ca2 and EDTA (H4Y) are added to make a 0.010 M solution of CaY2- at pH 10. The formation constant for
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

the concentration of free Ca2⁺ in this solution is 7.559 × 10⁻⁷

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Ca^{2+ + y^{4- ⇄  CaY^{2-

Formation constant Kf

Kf = CaY^{2- / ( [Ca^{2+][y^{4-] ) = 5.0 × 10¹⁰

Now,

[y^{4-] = \alpha _4CH_4Y; ∝₄ = 0.35

so the equilibrium is;

Ca^{2+ + H_4Y ⇄  CaY^{2- + 4H⁺

Given that; CH_4Y = Ca^{2+     { 1 mol Ca^{2+  reacts with 1 mol H_4Y  }

so at equilibrium, CH_4Y = Ca^{2+ = x

∴

Ca^{2+ + y^{4- ⇄  CaY^{2-

x        + x         0.010-x

since Kf is high, them x will be small so, 0.010-x is approximately 0.010

so;

Kf = CaY^{2- / ( [Ca^{2+][y^{4-] ) =  CaY^{2- / ( [Ca^{2+][\alpha _4CH_4Y] )  = 5.0 × 10¹⁰

⇒ CaY^{2- / ( [Ca^{2+][\alpha _4CH_4Y] )  = 5.0 × 10¹⁰

⇒ 0.010 / ( [x][ 0.35 × x] )  = 5.0 × 10¹⁰

⇒ 0.010 / 0.35x²  = 5.0 × 10¹⁰

⇒ x² = 0.010 / ( 0.35 × 5.0 × 10¹⁰ )

⇒ x² = 0.010 / 1.75 × 10¹⁰

⇒ x² = 0.010 / 1.75 × 10¹⁰

⇒ x² = 5.7142857 × 10⁻¹³

⇒ x = √(5.7142857 × 10⁻¹³)

⇒ x = 7.559 × 10⁻⁷

Therefore, the concentration of free Ca2⁺ in this solution is 7.559 × 10⁻⁷

Calculate the enthalpy of the reaction
harkovskaia [24]

Answer : The enthalpy of the reaction is, -2552 kJ/mole

Explanation :

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The given enthalpy of reaction is,

4B(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2B_2O_3(s)    \Delta H=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reactions are:

(1) B_2O_3(s)+3H_2O(g)\rightarrow 3O_2(g)+B_2H_6(g)     \Delta H_A=+2035kJ

(2) 2B(s)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow B_2H_6(g)    \Delta H_B=+36kJ

(3) H_2(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow H_2O(l)    \Delta H_C=-285kJ

(4) H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_2O(g)    \Delta H_D=+44kJ

Now we have to revere the reactions 1 and multiple by 2, revere the reactions 3, 4 and multiple by 2 and multiply the reaction 2 by 2 and then adding all the equations, we get :

(when we are reversing the reaction then the sign of the enthalpy change will be change.)

The expression for enthalpy of the reaction will be,

\Delta H=-2\times \Delta H_A+2\times \Delta H_B-6\times \Delta H_C-6\times \Delta H_D

\Delta H=-2(+2035kJ)+2(+36kJ)-6(-285kJ)-6(+44)

\Delta H=-2552kJ

Therefore, the enthalpy of the reaction is, -2552 kJ/mole

I really need help im stuck
nekit [7.7K]
The first option is the correct.
Since we know the mass of one atom of Fe is 56 and that of Cl2 atoms is 71 (one atom has 35.5 mass) hence both of them will be consumed
