Answer:
The total pressure of three gases is 837.56 mmHg.
Explanation:
The pressure exerted by a particular gas in a mixture is known as its partial pressure. So, Dalton's law states that the total pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the pressures that each gas would exert if it were alone:
PT = PA + PB
This relationship is due to the assumption that there are no attractive forces between the gases.
In this case, the total pressure can be calculated as:
PT= 2.67 mmHg + 45.69 mmHg + 789.6 mmHg
Solving:
PT= 837.56 mmHg
<em><u>The total pressure of three gases is 837.56 mmHg.</u></em>
Answer:
the squid population could decrease, because the tuna population is increasing and they would eat more squid, so the dolphin population would also decrease because there would be less squid to eat, and because there are less squid the herring population would increase.
Answer: option B and option C
Explanation:
Answer:
The mechanical energy produced on burning fossil fuels is transformed into chemical energy stored in carbon dioxide.
Explanation:
When fossil fuels are burnt, mechanical energy is produced. Remember that according to the first law of thermodynamics, energy is neither created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another. Hence the mechanical energy produced when fossil fuels are burnt for industrial use, heating of homes, electricity generation , cooking etc the mechanical energy produced is not 'lost'. It must be transformed in to another form of energy.
In the image the arrow G----> C, shows the mechanical energy produced when fossil fuels are burnt are stored as chemical energy in CO2 bonds. CO2 is found in the atmosphere, hence the arrow point upwards from the source towards the atmosphere (C is the atmospheric reservoir of CO2). The energy is subsequently used by producers to produce chemical energy stored in food.
