Answer:

pH reducing agent for acidic soils

Explanation:

Gypsum is not used to reduce soil pH because it will displace the soil H+ but there's no means of extracting the H from the soil. So the pH of the soil remains the same.

Explain mitosis and meiosis in your own words.

I always remembered the differences by Mitosis sounds like My Toes Is. Which means its body cells reproducing. 
And Meiosis is My overies. Which is sex cells reproducing. 

Mitosis - The body cell's nucleus makes a copy of its chromosomes. The Chromotids are then pulled to the poles of the cell and split in half, the cell then divides in half into two new cells. Each cell has one pair of chromosomes each.

Meiosis - The sex cells nucleus makes a copy of each chromosome same as before. But then the similar chromosomes group up and swap parts with each other. Making completely new chromosomes. They then split in half again, making two new cells with two different pairs of chromosomes. Which then split apart Once more creating 4 new cells (From the original one) Each with completely random chromosomes.

Octane has a density of 0.692 g/ml at 20∘c. how many grams of o2 are required to burn 17.0 gal of c8h18
german

156251.099 grams of O₂ are required to burn 17.0 gal of C₈H₁₈

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Density is a quantity derived from the mass and volume

Density is the ratio of mass per unit volume

With the same mass, the volume of objects that have a high density will be smaller than objects with a smaller type of mass

The unit of density can be expressed in g / cm³ or kg / m³

Density formula:

\large{\boxed{\bold{\rho~=~\frac{m}{V} }}}

ρ = density

m = mass

v = volume

1 gal equal to = 3785.41 ml

then 17.0 gal = 17 x 3785.41 = 64351.97 ml Octane

grams Octane = ρ x ml

grams Octane = 0.692 g.ml x 64351.97

grams Octane = 44531.563

molar mass Octane (C₈H₁₈) = 114

mole Octane = grams : molar mass

mole Octane = 44531.563  : 114

mole Octane = 390.627

From the reaction

C₈H₁₈ + 25/2 O₂ ⇒ 8 CO₂ + 9H₂O

mole C₈H₁₈ : mole O₂ = 1 : 25/2

mole\:O_2\:=\:\frac{25}{2} \times\:390.627

mole O₂ = 4882.846

grams O₂ = mole x molar mass

grams O₂ = 4882.846 x 32

grams O₂ = 156251.099

Which term describes the molecule shown below h-c-c-h ethyne c2h2?
Andru [333]
Ethyne also known as Acetylene and is the simplest Alkyne belonging to  Unsaturated Hydrocarbons. It contains triple bond between two carbon atoms in a molecule. Carbon atoms in Acetylene are sp Hybridized and has a linear shape with bond angle of 180° is present between C-C-H bonds. This compound is also called as Binary Compound because it is made up of two elements i.e. Carbon and Hydrogen. The terminal Hydrogen in Acetylene is slightly Acidic in nature, and this compound can donate terminal proton to any strong base. These compounds generally give Electrophillic Addition Reactions.
