What is the most likely result of the pollution of a fresh water resource?
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Loss of biodiversity in the wetlands.

Explanation: Pollution can be defined as the emission of toxic, poisonous and harmful chemical substances which are capable of causing environmental degradation and contamination.

Nitrogen pollution enters Earth’s freshwater resources from a variety of human activities, including the use of fertilizers and pesticides in agriculture. This nitrogen pollution has a negative effect on plants and animals living in fresh water. Certain wetland plants, however, are able to purify the water and restore it to its non-polluted state.

Hence, what would most likely increase the negative effects of nitrogen pollution is a loss of biodiversity in the wetlands i.e the various species of animal and plants.

Please Help!!<br><br> How does alpha decay change the nucleus of radioactive atom.
cluponka [151]

Answer:

When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4  and atomic number 2 less than the starting atom.

Explanation:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4  and atomic number 2 less than the starting atom.

Properties of alpha radiation:

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

**PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORK**Calculate how much energy would be necessary to convert 250.0 grams of ice at -30°C to steam at 145°C.
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Q= mc∆T(ice) + mLF(ice) + mc∆T(water) + mLV(water) + mc∆T(steam)

m=250 g = 0.25 kg = ¼ kg c(ice)= 2100 J/kg.K c(water)= 4200 J/kg.K LF(ice)= 333.7 kJ/kg LV(water)= 2256 kJ/kg c(steam)= 2080 J/kg.K

Explanation:

Q= ¼ × 2100 × (0°-(-30°)) + ¼ × 333700 + ¼ × 4200 × (100°-0°) + ¼ × 2256000 + ¼ × 2080 × (145°-100°)

Q= 15750 + 83425 + 105000 + 564000 + 23400

Q= 791575 J
