Earth contains huge quantities of water in its oceans, lakes, rivers, the atmosphere, and believe it or not, in the rocks of the inner Earth. Over millions of years, much of this water is recycled between the inner Earth, the oceans and rivers, and the atmosphere. This cycling process means that freshwater is constantly made available to Earth's surface where we all live. Our planet is also very efficient at keeping this water. Water, as a vapor in our atmosphere, could potentially escape into space from Earth. But the water doesn't escape because certain regions of the atmosphere are extremely cold. (At an altitude of 15 kilometers, for example, the temperature of the atmosphere is as low as -60° Celsius!) At this frigid temperature, water forms solid crystals that fall back to Earth's surface.
Many people live faraway from freshwater sources. They need to carry their water home.
While our planet as a whole may never run out of water, it's important to remember that clean freshwater is not always available where and when humans need it. In fact, half of the world's freshwater can be found in only six countries. More than a billion people live without enough safe, clean water.
Also, every drop of water that we use continues through the water cycle. Stuff we put down the drain ends up in someone or something else's water. We can help protect the quality of our planet's freshwater by using it more wisely.

Using the “rule of 8” explain why carbon is the backbone of organic molecules
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Carbon has 4 valence electrons (electrons that are used in bonding), and therefore it can make 4 bonds which is the most one can (other than some exceptions, but in general it is the most). It wants to make 4 bonds so it can reach a full octet of 8 elections, hence the rule of 8.

Determine the molarity of a 6.0 mole% sulfuric acid solution with SG-a 1.07 Note: Atomic Weight: S (32), O 16); H (O)
marin [14]

Answer:

The molarity of a 6.0 mole% sulfuric acid solution is 2.8157 Molar.

Explanation:

Suppose there are 100 moles in solution:

Moles of sulfuric acid = 6% of 100 moles = 6 moles

Mass of 6 moles of sulfuric acid = 6 mol × 98 g/mol=588 g

Moles of water = 100%- 6% = 94%= 94 moles

Mass of water = 94 mol × 18 g/mol = 1692 g

Specific gravity of the solution ,S.G= 1.07

Density of solution = D

S.G=\frac{D}{d_w}

d_w = density of water = 1 g/mL

D=S.G\times d_w=1.07\times 1 g/mL=1.07 g/mL

Mass of the solution = 588 g + 1692 g = 2280 g

Volume of the solution = V

Volume = \frac{Mass}{Density}

=\frac{2280 g}{1.07 g/mL}=2130.84 mL=2.13084 L

1 mL = 0.001 L

Molarity = \frac{n}{V(L)}

n = number of moles of compound

V = volume of the solution in L

here we have ,n = 6 moles of sulfuric acid

V = 2.13084 L

So, the molarity of the solution is :

Molarity=\frac{6 mol}{2.13084 L}=2.8157 mol/L
