The two ways that climate change can degrade soil are due to carbon dioxide content in soil and its effect on the ecosystem.

Explanation:

When the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increases the organisms such as microbes in the soil break down the organic matter and causes even more increase in the carbon dioxide content. This leads to the release of greenhouse gases which further releases a large amount of methane which is harmful.  

Secondly, there should always be a balance between the soil and the climate otherwise it would affect the natural and semi-natural ecosystems. When there are changes in the distribution of water to the plants it affects the hydro-logical cycle. Thus, climate change will naturally lead to changes in the functions of soil and degradation occurs.

MissTica

Question: The question is not complete. Find below the complete question and the answer.

Alab group was supposed to make 14 mL of a 36% acid solution by mixing a 20% solution, a 26% solution, and a 42% solution. However, the 20% solution was mislabeled, and was actually a 10% solution, so the lab group ended up with 14 mL of a 34% acid solution, instead. If the augmented matrix that represents the system of equations is given below, what are the volumes of the solutions that should have been mixed? mL

Volume of 20% solution= ?

Volume of 26% solution = ?

Volume of 42% solution= ?   Round to the nearest whole number ml

Answer:

Volume of 20% solution= 3 mL

Volume of 26% solution = 1 mL

Volume of 42% solution= 10 mL

Explanation:

Find attached of the calculations.

How much energy in joules is released when 18.5 grams of copper cools from 285 °C<br> down to 45 °C
nadya68 [22]

Answer: 1709.4 Joules

Explanation:

The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) released on cooling a heated substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since Q = ?

M = 18.5 grams

Recall that the specific heat capacity of copper C = 0.385 J/g.C

Φ = 285°C - 45°C = 240°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

Q = 18.5grams x 0.385 J/g.C x 240°C

Q = 1709.4 Joules

Thus, 1709.4 Joules is released when copper is cooled.
