Answer:

            4.36 g of Carbon

Solution:

Step 1: Calculate the %age of Carbon in given Solid as;

                        Mass of Carbon  =  35.8 g

                        Mass of Hydrogen  =  3.72

                        Total Mass  =  35.8 g + 3.72  =  39.52 g

                        %age of Carbon  =  (35.8 g ÷ 39.52 g) × 100

                        %age of carbon  =  90.58 %

Step 2: Calculate grams of Carbon in 4.82 g of given solid as;

                        Mass of Carbon  =  4.82 g × (90.58 ÷ 100)

                        Mass of Carbon  =  4.36 g

Threats faced by the Everglades and the Louisiana wetlands.
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Invasive species, runoff pollution, and climate change.

Explanation:

Invasive species, such as Burmese pythons, threaten the Florida Everglades because they are not native to the natural habitat. Pythons eat the native animals, but they don't have any predators.

Pollution from nearby farms and roads enters the water and damages the ecosystem of the Everglades and Louisiana wetlands. Toxic chemicals lead to detrimental effects for both humans and wildlife.

Humans have drained swampy areas to allow for development. However, this has led to the Everglades drying up and even burning in recent years.

Burning a candle is a combustion reaction that uses wax and oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and energy. When you burn a
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The wax

Explanation:

The limiting reactant is the reactant in short supply in a particular reaction. This reactant determines the extent of the reaction. Oxygen in the reaction is the one in excess. As we know that oxygen is free in the atmosphere and it is in excess supply.

After the wax finishes burning the reaction stops and no more production of carbon dioxide, water and energy but oxygen still continues to abound all around.

In order to determine the amount of carbon dioxide and water that would be produce, we simply use the amount of wax to relate with them.

Two reasons why scientists create models to study atoms
zaharov [31]
Models are used to study atoms because we can't exactly study an atom with the naked eye, Using an enlarged model of an atom easier to study because we can pin point the different characteristics of the atom.
