Answer: nature that benefit mankind

Explanation:

Ecosystem services are the benefits that mankind freely gain from nature and well-functioning ecosystems. For example, agroecosystems, forest ecosystems, grassland ecosystems and aquatic ecosystems. When these ecosystems function well, they provide benefits such as agricultural produce, timber, and aquatic organisms such as fishes and crabs. These benefits together are called 'ecosystem services'.

A tank at is filled with of sulfur tetrafluoride gas and of sulfur hexafluoride gas. You can assume both gases behave as ideal g

dangina [55]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is:

A 7.00 L tank at $21.4^oC$ is filled with 5.43 g of sulfur hexafluoride gas and 14.2 g of sulfur tetrafluoride gas. You can assume both gases behave as ideal gases under these conditions. Calculate the mole fraction and partial pressure of each gas. Round each of your answers to significant digits.

Answer: The mole fraction of sulfur hexafluoride is 0.221 and that of sulfur tetrafluoride is 0.779

Explanation:

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass. The equation used is:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ ......(1)

For sulfur hexafluoride:

Given mass of sulfur hexafluoride = 5.43 g

Molar mass of sulfur hexafluoride = 146.06 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of sulfur hexafluoride}=\frac{5.43g}{146.06g/mol}=0.0372mol$

For sulfur tetrafluoride:

Given mass of sulfur tetrafluoride = 14.2 g

Molar mass of sulfur tetrafluoride = 108.07 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of sulfur tetrafluoride }=\frac{14.2g}{108.07g/mol}=0.1314mol$

Total moles of gas in the tank = [0.0372+ 0.1314] mol = 0.1686 mol

Mole fraction is defined as the moles of a component present in the total moles of a solution. It is given by the equation:

$\chi_A=\frac{n_A}{n_A+n_B}$ .....(2)

where n is the number of moles

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$\chi_{SF_6}=\frac{0.0372}{0.1686}=0.221$

$\chi_{SF_4}=\frac{0.1314}{0.1686}=0.779$

Hence, the mole fraction of sulfur hexafluoride is 0.221 and that of sulfur tetrafluoride is 0.779

Which of the following is not a property of a buffer solution? a) It is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base. b) Resi

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

e) pH is independent of concentration.

Explanation:

a) It is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base. TRUE. A buffer is defined as a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid.

b) Resists pH changes because it reacts with added acid or base. TRUE. Thermodynamically, the reaction of added acid or base is faster with the buffer mixture than with H⁺ or OH⁻ ions of the solutions.

c) The maximum buffer capacity is at pH = pKa. TRUE. The buffer capacity is pka±1. For this, buffer capacity is maximum in pka.

d) pH is dependent on the solution ionic strength and temperature. TRUE. Ionic strength and temperature are factors that influence concentrations of ions in solutions as the H⁺ ion that is the responsible

e) pH is independent of concentration. FALSE. pH in a buffer depends completely of concentrations of the acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.

I need help on 26, 28, 36-40

gtnhenbr [62]

26. a megagram = 10⁶ grams while a kilogram = 10³ grams, so the megagram is bigger

28. a mililiter = 10⁻³ liters while a microliter = 10⁻⁶ liters, so the mililiter is bigger

36. 1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters, so the decimal moves right 2 places

37. 1 micrometer is equal to 0.001 milimeters, so the decimal moves left 3 places

38. 1 centimeter is equal to 0.00001 kilometers, so the decimal moves left 5 places

39. 1 micrometer is equal to 10⁻¹² megameters, so the decimal moves left 12 places

40. 1 kilometer is equal to 100000 centimeters, so the decimal moves right 5 places

What is the typical percentage (by mass of elements other than hydrogen and helium in stars that are forming right now in the vi

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Considering mass percentages, stars in the vicinity of the sun contain only 2% other elements by mass. Other than the main components, hydrogen and helium, stars have some heavier elements such as carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and iron. These elements are found near or in the star's core and are ejected into space when the star dies.
