Hello, Lindaparker, a spit  could form from a rocky headland where prevailing winds would blow at an angle to the rocky headland, gradually depositing sand and shingle at that place. A spit is a permanent land form resulting from marine deposition and wind deposition. It is usually a long and narrow accumulation of sand or shingle with one joined to the land and the other end projecting at   a narrow angle out into the sea. Salt marshes sometimes form on the sheltered side of a spit.

It could have been something to do with the rocky headland rubbing against the split. Just guessing though.

Which of the following solvent pairs could be used in a solvent pair recrystallization (in general, not for this specific reacti
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

(a) Ethyl acetate and hexane, and (c) methanol and methylene chloride.

Explanation:

re-crystallization is a technique used to purify solid compound.   Ethyl acetate and hexane are good solvent pair for recrystallization because they are miscible with each other due to their good differences in polarity. ethyl acetate has polarity of 77 while hexane has 68.

water and diethyl ether are not good solvent pair for recrystallization because water and diethyl ether are immiscible. They have very far polarity values. water has 100 while diethyl ether has 35

Calculate the number of moles of a gas that is present in a 7.55 L container at 45°C, if the gas exerts a pressure of 725mm Hg.
vovikov84 [41]

<u>Answer:</u> The number of moles of gas present is 0.276 moles

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles of gas, we use the equation given by ideal gas:

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of the gas = 725 mm Hg

V = Volume of the gas = 7.55 L

n = number of moles of gas = ?

R = Gas constant = 62.3637\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = Temperature of the gas = 45^oC=(45+273)K=318K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

725mmHg\times 7.55L=n\times 62.3637\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 318K\\\\n=0.276mol

Hence, the number of moles of gas present is 0.276 moles

Describe how organisms in the tropical rainforest both depend on and compete for biotic and abiotic factors. In your answer, ide
nadezda [96]

What are biotic and abiotic factors?

Biotic and abiotic are the two essential factors responsible for shaping the ecosystem. The biotic factors refer to all the living beings present in an ecosystem, and the abiotic factors refer to all the non-living components like physical conditions (temperature, pH, humidity, salinity, sunlight, etc.) and chemical agents (different gases and mineral nutrients present in the air, water, soil, etc.) in an ecosystem. Therefore, both the abiotic and biotic resources affect the survival and reproduction process.

Answer:

Abiotic factors in the tropical rainforest include humidity, soil composition, temperature, and sunlight. A limiting factor in the ecosystem is that canopy layers block sunlight from reaching the forest floor, causing shorter plants to not be able to grow. Biotic factors in the tropical rainforest include orchids, lilies, heliconia, and bromeliads. Tropical rainforests can have various fungi, shrubs, herbs, woody vines, lichens, and mosses. The trees making up the rainforest canopy include the tonka bean wood, teak, rubber, and several species of evergreens and palm trees. This way the organisms in the tropical rainforest both depend on biotic and abiotic factors.
