Why are food and water the limiting factors that usually have the greatest effect on population size?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Firdavs [7]3 years ago

Because food and water are resources that are basic needs for all members of the population. When these resources decrease more members of the population will either die or move to another area and the population size will decrease.

A 52.0-mL volume of 0.35 M CH3COOH (Ka=1.8×10−5) is titrated with 0.40 M NaOH. Calculate the pH after the addition of 23.0 mL of
Georgia [21]

NaOH reacts with CH3COOH in 1:1 molar ratio to produce CH3COONa 

NaOH + CH3COOH → CH3COONa + H2O 

Mol CH3COOH in 52.0mL of 0.35M solution = 52.0/1000*0.35 = 0.0182 mol CH3COOH 

Mol NaOH in 19.0mL of 0.40M solution = 19.0/1000*0.40 = 0.0076 mol NaOH 

These will react to produce 0.0076 mol CH3COONa and there will be 0.0182 - 0.0076 = 0.0106 mol CH3COOH remaining in solution unreacted . Total volume of solution = 52.0+19.0 = 71mL or 0.071L 

Molarity of CH3COOH = 0.0106/0.071 = 0.1493M 

CH3COONa = 0.0076 / 0.071 = 0.1070M 

pKa acetic acid = - log Ka = -log 1.8*10^-5 = 4.74. 

pH using Henderson - Hasselbalch equation: 

pH = pKa + log ([salt]/[acid]) 

pH = 4.74 + log ( 0.1070/0.1493) 

pH = 4.74 + log 0.717 

pH = 4.74 + (-0.14) 

pH = 4.60.

Which substance contains bonds that involve a transfer of electrons from one atom to another
cestrela7 [59]
An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions. Ionic bonds are formed between a cation, which is usually a metal, and an anion, which is usually a nonmetal. A covalent bond involves a pair of electrons being shared between atoms.

The spectrochemical series is I < Br< < Cl^- < F
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

b. The splitting of the d-orbitals is smaller in the [Ni(Cl)6]4- complex than in the [Ni(en)3]2+ complex.

Explanation:

The spectrochemical series is an arrangement of ligands in increasing order of their magnitude of crystal field splitting.

Ligands that occurs towards the right in the series are called strong field ligands and they tend to cause a greater magnitude of crystal field splitting. Ligands that occur towards the left hand side in the series are called weak field ligands and they tend to cause a lesser magnitude of crystal field splitting.

Since Cl^- is a weak field ligand, it causes a lesser magnitude of d orbital splitting compared to ethylenediammine (en) which causes a greater magnitude of d orbital splitting.

Hence; the splitting of the d-orbitals is smaller in the [Ni(Cl)6]4- complex than in the [Ni(en)3]2+ complex.
