What is the difference between food web and food chain and what do they have in common?

Chemistry

A food web is a system of interlocking and interdependent food chains.


A food chain is a hierarchical series of organisms each dependent on the next as a source of food.


Basically, the difference of the two is that a food web contains multiple different species in the same level that eat the animal below it's status. A food chain is one after the other.

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

P2= 0.696atm

Explanation:

Applying Boyle's law

P1V1= P2V2

1.14×16.9= P2× 27.7

Simplify

P2= (1.14×16.9)/27.7

P2= 0.696atm

A mixture of gases with a pressure of 800.0 mm hg contains 60% nitrogen and 40% oxygen by volume. What is the partial pressure o
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

  • <em>The partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture is</em><u> 320.0 mm Hg</u>

Explanation:

<u>1) Take a base of 100 liters of mixture</u>:

  • N: 60% × 100 liter  = 60 liter

  • O: 40 % × 100 liter = 40 liter.

<u>2) Volume fraction:</u>

At constant pressure and temperature, the volume of a gas is proportional to the number of molecules.

Then, the mole ratio is equal to the volume ratio. Callin n₁ and n₂, the number of moles of nitrogen and oxygen, respectively, and V₁, V₂ the volume of the respective gases you can set the proportion:

  • V₁ / V₂ = n₁ / n₂

That means that the mole ratio is equal to the volume ratio, and the mole fraction is equal to the volume fraction.

Then, since the law of partial pressures of gases states that the partial pressure of each gas is equal to the mole fraction of the gas multiplied by the total pressure, you can draw the conclusion that the partial pressure of each gas is equal to the volume fraction of the gas in the mixture multiplied by the total pressure.

Then calculate the volume fractions:

  • Volume fraction of a gas = volume of the gas / volume of the mixture

  • N: 60 liter / 100 liter = 0.6 liter

  • V: 40 liter / 100 liter = 0.4 liter

<u>3) Partial pressures:</u>

These are the final calculations and results:

  • Partial pressure = volume fraction × total pressure

  • Partial pressure of N = 0.6 × 800.0 mm Hg = 480.0 mm Hg

  • Partial pressure of O = 0.4 × 800.0 mm Hg = 320.0 mm Hg

How can constraints be used to help define the problem?
vitfil [10]

Answer:

Constraints are restrictions that need to be placed upon variables 

Explanation:

Constraints are restrictions (limitations, boundaries) that need to be placed upon variables used in equations that model real-world situations. It is possible that certain solutions which make an equation true mathematically, may not make any sense in the context of a real-world word problem.
