What is the function of the phytoplankton in the ocean ecosystem

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nitella [24]3 years ago
7 0

Phytoplankton is a type of micro algae. This creature is similar to the other plants in the ocean biome. But what makes it special is the fact that it is the main produce in the food web. The plant is so small that it is impossible to see it with the naked eye.

However, that doesn’t remove the fact that phytoplankton contains a huge amount of chlorophyll. Here are the 13 Function of the Phytoplankton in Ocean Ecosystem. Find out what makes this small plant so crucial to the ocean

What is the volume of 58.0g of chlorine gas at stp
natita [175]

At standard temperature and pressure, the volume of 58 gms of chlorine gas is 7.08 L.

<h3>What is STP?</h3>

STP is the condition of the ideal gas that relates to the moles, pressure, temperature, and volume. The ideal gas law at the STP is given as:

PV = nRT

Given at STP,

Pressure (P) = 1 atm

Temperature (T) = 273 K

Gas constant (R) = 0.0821 L atm/ mol K

Moles (n) of chlorine gas is calculated as:

Moles = Mass / Molar mass

n = 58.0 / 70.90

= 0.818 moles

The volume for the ideal gas equation is calculated as:

V = n * R * T / P

V = 7.08 / 1

V = 7.08 L

Therefore, at STP the volume of the gas is 7.08 L.

Practice Problem #1: __TiO2 + __Cl2 + __C __TiCl4 + __CO2 + __CO
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Explanation:

1)

Given data:

Moles of Cl₂ react = ?

Moles of carbon = 4.55 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2TiO₂ + 4Cl₂ + 3C  → 2TiCl₄ + CO₂ + 2CO

Now we will compare the moles of Cl₂ with C.

                         C             :            Cl₂

                         3             :              4

                       4.55         :            4/3×4.55 = 6.1 mol

6.1 moles of chlorine will react with 4.55 moles of C.

2)

Given data:

Mass of TiO₂ react = ?

Moles of carbon = 4.55 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2TiO₂ + 4Cl₂ + 3C  → 2TiCl₄ + CO₂ + 2CO

Now we will compare the moles of Cl₂ with C.

                         C             :            TiO₂

                         3             :              2

                       4.55         :            2/3×4.55 = 3 mol

Mass of TiO₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3 mol × 79.87 g/mol

Mass =  239.61 g

3)

Given data:

Molecules of TiCl₄ formed = ?

Moles of TiO₂ react = 115 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2TiO₂ + 4Cl₂ + 3C  → 2TiCl₄ + CO₂ + 2CO

Number of moles of TiO₂:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 115 g/ 79.87 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.44 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Cl₂ with C.

                      TiO₂           :            TiCl₄

                         2             :              2

                       1.44           :            1.44

Molecules of TiCl₄:

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

1.44 ×6.022 × 10²³ molecules

8.672× 10²³ molecules

A hiker enters an area where lichens, mosses, and fungi are growing. Which statement best describes this ecosystem? A It is popu
zysi [14]

A.

Explanation:

Pioneer plants are to plants species that appear first in virgin land – such an after a volcanic eruption. They are mainly lower plants such as lichen, fungi, and noses. These species can grow on rocks and break them down over time to form soil. This is due to the fact that the plants have very shallow roots that can even grow in the small crevices of rocks and can draw water from the atmosphere – moisture. This releases the nutrients in the rocks and makes them available to higher plants that have deeper roots. The ecology of the region will ultimately be succeeded by a climax community over time, mainly dominated by tree species.
