Plants make food through the process of photosynthesis. :)

Angelina_Jolie [31]3 years ago

Answer:

By photosynthesis

Explanation:

Plants have specialized cells for capturing light energy from the sun. The light energy is used to synthesizer energy carrier molecules(NADPH-Nicotineamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate & ATP-adenosine triphosphate). The energy from these molecules are used to synthesize G3P(glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate) from C02. G3P is coneverted glucose, sucrose or other sugar molecules.

In short, they use light from the sun to make sugars from CO2 and water

How does acid rain happen? (Use the term Sulfur Dioxide) PLS HALP

mafiozo [28]

Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain.

What is the vapor pressure of the solution if 35.0 g of water is dissolved in 100.0 g of ethyl alcohol at 25 ∘C? The vapor press

masya89 [10]

Answer: The vapor pressure of the solution is 43.55 mmHg

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

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

For water:

Given mass of water = 35.0 g

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of water}=\frac{35.0g}{18g/mol}=1.944mol$

For ethyl alcohol:

Given mass of ethyl alcohol = 100.0 g

Molar mass of ethyl alcohol = 46 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of ethyl alcohol}=\frac{100.0g}{46g/mol}=2.174mol$

Total moles of solution = [1.944 = 2.174] moles = 4.118 moles

Mole fraction of a substance is given by:

$\chi_A=\frac{n_A}{n_A+n_B}$

For water:

$\chi_{\text{water}}=\frac{n_{\text{water}}}{n_{\text{water}}+n_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}}$

$\chi_{water}=\frac{1.944}{4.118}=0.472$

For ethyl alcohol:

$\chi_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}=\frac{n_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}}{n_{\text{water}}+n_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}}$

$\chi_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}=\frac{2.174}{4.118}=0.528$

Dalton's law of partial pressure states that the total pressure of the system is equal to the sum of partial pressure of each component present in it.

To calculate the vapor pressure of the solution, we use the law given by Dalton, which is:

$P_T=\sum_{i=1}^n (p_i\times \chi_i)$

Or,

$P_T=[(p_{\text{water}}\times \chi_{\text{water}})+(p_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}\times \chi_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}$

We are given:

Vapor pressure of water = 23.8 mmHg

Vapor pressure of ethyl alcohol = 61.2 mmHg

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$p_T=[(23.8\times 0.472)+(61.2\times 0.528)]\\\\p_T=43.55mmHg$

Hence, the vapor pressure of the solution is 43.55 mmHg

Which explains how burning a magnesium ribbon highlights a toolmark?

Setler [38]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The magnesium ribbon, D. It forms a material to cast the tool mark.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

When a magnesium ribbon is burnt in the presence of oxygen it gives out strong light and heat is produced. Apart from it, it leads to the production of substance called as magnesium oxide which is formed as the product due to the reaction of magnesium with the oxygen present in the air.

Tool marks are the mark which is created by tools while using them. In order to identify or locate them castes made up of magnesium oxide is utilized. When this is pasted on the suspected area, the tool mark of the suspected tool gets pasted on it.

What is meant by the term sensitivity in Analytical Chemistry? (a) The term refers to the limit at which the absorption instrume

ivolga24 [154]

The term sensitivity in Analytical Chemistry is "the slope of the calibration curve or a function of analyte concentration or amount".

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In a sample, the little amounts of substances can be accurately evaluated by a method is termed as "Analytical sensitivity". This detect a target analyte like an antibody or antigen, process is considered as potential of a test to and generally demonstrated as the analyte's minimum detectable concentration.

The acceptable diagnostic sensitivity is not guaranteed by high analytical sensitivity. The percentage of individuals who have a given disarray who are identified by the method as positive for the disarray is known as "Diagnostic sensitivity".
