Answer : The correct option is, (a) true

Explanation :

Ozone layer : It is a layer which is present in the stratosphere region. Ozone layer is the layer which absorbs more amount of the ultraviolet rays which is the more harmful rays for us. That means ozone layer protect us from the harmful rays (UV rays). Ultraviolet rays causes the skin cancer. When the ultraviolet rays reaches directly to the earth, it cause many type of diseases.

When the hole in the ozone layer then it can lead to increases in skin cancer.

Hence, the given statement is true.

A 20.0 milliliter sample of 0.200 molar K₂CO₃ solution is added to 30.0 milliliters of 0.400 molar Ba(NO₃)₂ solution. Barium car

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

0.32M

Explanation:

Step 1: Balance the reaction

K2CO3 + Ba(NO3)2 ⇔ KNO3 + BaCO3

We have a 20 mL 0.2 M K2CO3 and a 30mL 0.4M Ba(NO3)2 solution

SinceK2CO3 is the limiting reactant, there will remain Ba(NO3)2 after it's consumed and produced KNO3 + BaCO3

Step 2: Calculate concentration

To find the concentration of the barium cation we use the following equation:

Concentration = moles of the solute / volumen of the solution

[Ba2+] = (20 * 10^-3 * 0.2M + 30 * 10^-3 * 0.4M) / ( 20 + 30mL) *10^-3

[Ba2+] = 0.32 M

The concentration of Barium ion in solution is 0.32 M

What is the slope of the line?

pychu [463]

Answer:

The slope of the line is $-\frac{10}{7}$ .

Explanation:

The slope of the line ( $m$ ) is the change in dependent variable ( $y$ ) divided by the change in independent variable ( $x$ ):

$m = \frac{y_{f}-y_{o}}{x_{f}-x_{o}}$ (1)

If we know that $(x_{o}, y_{o}) = (0, 2)$ and $(x_{f}, y_{f}) = (1.4, 0)$ , then the slope of the line is:

$m = \frac{0-2}{1.4-0}$

$m = -\frac{10}{7}$

The slope of the line is $-\frac{10}{7}$ .

Maksim231197 [3]

It uses elimination againLet A be 15% juice and B is 5% juice
A+B = 100.15A + 0.05B = 0.11*10 = 1.1Multiply 2nd equation by 100 to get rid of decimals
A+B = 1015A + 5B = 110
