Answer:

storm runoff

Eutrophication is caused by an excess amount of nutrients within the water. These nutrients can be collected within a lake by runoff from a agricultural area filled with fertilizers, etc etc. The algae within the body of water would grow at a rapid rate, causing a depletion for oxygen within the water and the lack of sunlight underneath the water surface.

What is the pressure in atm exerted by 2.48 moles of a gas in a 250.0 mL container at 58 degrees celsius
Dvinal [7]
Since the question manages to include moles, pressure, volume, and temperature, then it is evident that in order to find the answer we will have to use the Ideal Gas Equation:  PV = nRT (where P = pressure; V = volume; n = number of moles; R = the Universal Constant [0.082 L·atm/mol·K]; and temperature.

First, in order to work out the questions, there is a need to convert the volume to Litres and the temperature to Kelvin based on the equation:
         250 mL = 0.250 L
             58 °C = 331 K

Also, based on the equation   P = nRT ÷ V

⇒         P  = (2.48 mol)(0.082 L · atm/mol · K)(331 K)  ÷  0.250 L
⇒         P  =  (67.31  L · atm) ÷ 0.250 L
⇒         P  =  269.25 atm

Thus the pressure exerted by the gas in the container is  269.25 atm.

Explain why it is important to assume that the rate of radioactive decay aka radioactivity will remain constant over time?
marusya05 [52]

Answer and Explanation:

It's very important to assume that the rate of radioactive decay will remain constant over time to make scientists' lives easier when calculating the ages of fossils, compounds, etc.

If the rate changes, it would be extremely challenging for people to figure out the relative ages of rock strata, fossils, or other substances with radioactive elements in them. This is a fundamental assumption in order to be able to use radioactive dating.

Hope this helps!

The vapor pressure of ethanol is 30°C at 98.5 mmHg and the heat of vaporization is 39.3 kJ/mol. Determine the normal boiling poi
Gelneren [198K]

Answer : The normal boiling point of ethanol will be, 348.67K or 75.67^oC

Explanation :

The Clausius- Clapeyron equation is :

\ln (\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R}\times (\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2})

where,

P_1 = vapor pressure of ethanol at 30^oC = 98.5 mmHg

P_2 = vapor pressure of ethanol at normal boiling point = 1 atm = 760 mmHg

T_1 = temperature of ethanol = 30^oC=273+30=303K

T_2 = normal boiling point of ethanol = ?

\Delta H_{vap} = heat of vaporization = 39.3 kJ/mole = 39300 J/mole

R = universal constant = 8.314 J/K.mole

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\ln (\frac{760mmHg}{98.5mmHg})=\frac{39300J/mole}{8.314J/K.mole}\times (\frac{1}{303K}-\frac{1}{T_2})

T_2=348.67K=348.67-273=75.67^oC

Hence, the normal boiling point of ethanol will be, 348.67K or 75.67^oC

Why is the bond angle in a water molecule less than the bond angle of methane
Annette [7]
The bond angle in the Water Molecule is approx. 104.5 degrees. The methane molecule is approx. 109.5 degrees. The differences, is due to the force from the surrounding molecules and atoms. For example the Lone pairs of electrons.
