Answer:

B. It can cause pollution of water in lakes and rivers

  • Rain water usually during a down pour can wash them off into surrounding water bodies.
  • They can also even infiltrate into the ground water systems.
  • On getting into the rivers and lakes the alter the chemical balance and lead to severe pollution.
  • One of such is eutrophication.

How is hydrogen gas prepared in laboratory? Explain along with chemical equation.​
xeze [42]

Answer:

The hydrogen gas is prepared in the laboratory required zink granules, dilute sulphuric acid or dilute hydrogen chloride, flask or woulfe’s bottle, and thistle funnel. by the downward displacement of water because it is a gas lighter than water

Reaction:

Zn  (s)+2HCl  (aq)  →ZnCl2(aq)+H2(g)

​Zn (s)+H2SO4(aq)→ZnSO4(aq)+H2(g)

The zinc granules are taken in a flask or Woulfe’s bottle and It is connected with the delivery tube to a water trough containing water. Dilute sulphuric acid is poured slowly from the thistle funnel. The hydrogen gas is released and collected in a gas jar by by the downward displacement of water as H2 gas lighter than water

Please help: What effect does eutrophication have in aquatic ecosystems?
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The answer is D

Explanation:

an overabundance of nutrients primarily nitrogen and phosphorus which is in the water starts a process called eutrophication which makes it decrease. when the algae dies they are decomposed by bacteria. This process consumes the oxygen dissolved in the water which is needed by fish and other Aquatic Life to breathe.

It isn't C because it actually increases carbon dioxide not lower.

It isnt B because it does negatively impact aquatic vegetation but it is not beneficial for all aquatic animals

A isn't the the correct answer because eutrophication has nothing to do with sunlight into the ocean

So the only answer left which is correct is D

(I hope this helps you! have a wonderful day everyone!)
