-- foot

-- inch

Based on solubility rules what ions in water might interfere with the analysis of calcium ions by precipitation of calcium carbo
Pavlova-9 [17]
First, we must know what happens in the precipitation reaction. This type of reaction is a double replacement reactions. It is consists of two reactant compounds which interchange cations and anions to form two products. One of the products is an insoluble solid called a precipitate. For the precipitation of CaCO₃, there are two consecutive reactions involved:

1. Slaking of quicklime, CaO
    CaO + H₂O ⇒ Ca(OH)₂

2. Precipitation
    Ca(OH)₂ + CO₂ ⇒ CaCO₃ + H₂O

The ions that make up the H₂O molecule are H⁺ and OH⁻. According to solubility rules, the cation (positively charged ion) is likely to be attracted to an anion (negatively charged ion). Together, they form an ionic bond. This type of bond is when there is a complete transfer of electrons between the two. The Ca²⁺ cation lacks 2 electrons, while the anion OH⁻ has an excess 1 electron. In order to be stable, 1 Ca²⁺ ion and 2 OH⁻ ions must combine.

Therefore, the answer is OH⁻ ion.

Which organisms in this food web are carnivores? Select the two correct
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

The two correct options are Poison dart frog and Boa constrictor. Both these organisms are pure carnivores which are also known as pure meat eaters in the food web. Carnivores are organisms in the food chain that only meat-eaters and never take any type of vegetation in their diet.

Explanation:

  • A Poison dart frog purely survives on meat (meat- eater).
  • Long sticky tongues are used to catch their prey such as ants, flies, insects.
  • Since they produce high toxin levels, it has very few predators in the wild.
  • Boa constrictor is also an organism that eats only meat.
  • While they are young they eat prey like rats, squirrels and mice.
  • The type of attack used by a boa constrictor is an ambush attack type. It attacks its preys using the surprise factor.

Wich describes a characteristic of terminal moraine
stealth61 [152]
I found this....

Supraglacial Moraine

A supraglacial moraine is material on the surface of a glacier. Lateral and medial moraines can be supraglacial moraines. Supraglacial moraines are made up of rocks and earth that have fallen on the glacier from the surrounding landscape. Dust and dirt left by wind and rain become part of supraglacial moraines. Sometimes the supraglacial moraine is so heavy, it blocks the view of the ice river underneath.

If a glacier melts, supraglacial moraine is evenly distributed across a valley.

Ground Moraine

Ground moraines often show up as rolling, strangely shaped land covered in grass or other vegetation. They don’t have the sharp ridges of other moraines. A ground moraine is made of sediment that slowly builds up directly underneath a glacier by tiny streams, or as the result of a glacier meeting hills and valleys in the natural landscape. When a glacier melts, the ground moraine underneath is exposed.

Ground moraines are the most common type of moraine and can be found on every continent.

Terminal Moraine

A terminal moraine is also sometimes called an end moraine. It forms at the very end of a glacier, telling scientists today important information about the glacier and how it moved. At a terminal moraine, all the debris that was scooped up and pushed to the front of the glacier is deposited as a large clump of rocks, soil, and sediment.

Scientists study terminal moraines to see where the glacier flowed and how quickly it moved. Different rocks and minerals are located in specific places in the glacier’s path. If a mineral that is unique to one part of a landscape is present in a terminal moraine, geologists know the glacier must have flowed through that area.
