Explain how carbon is conserved in the carbon cycle.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Advocard [28]3 years ago

Most of the carbon is put away in sedimentary carbonates and kerogens, with the rest being spread between the sea, the air, biomass, for example, plants and creatures, and petroleum products.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • The carbon cycle is the procedure where carbon goes from the surrounding into living beings and to the Earth and then again goes into the air. Plants take carbon dioxide from the air and use it for food preparation. Creatures at that point eat the nourishment and carbon is put away in their bodies or discharged as CO2 through the breath.  
  • Most of the carbon is put away in sedimentary carbonates and kerogens, with the rest being spread between the sea, the air, biomass, for example, plants and creatures, and petroleum products. This is known as carbon storage.  
  • For instance, carbon, a fundamental component in natural particles, is preserved as it is moved from inorganic carbon in a biological system to natural atoms in living life forms of the biological system and back as inorganic carbon to the earth.

Mass of water 50.003 g 24 95C Temperature of water Specific heat capacity for water 4.184J/g C Mass of metal 3.546 Temperature o
Norma-Jean [14]

Correct Question :

Mass of water = 50.003g

Temperature of water= 24.95C

Specific heat capacity for water = 4.184J/g C

Mass of metal = 63.546 g

Temperature of metal 99.95°C

Specific heat capacity for metal ?

Final temperature = 32.80°C

In an experiment to determine the specific heat of a metal student transferred a sample of the metal that was heated in boiling water into room temperature water in an insulated cup. The student recorded the temperature of the water after thermal equilibrium was reached. The data we shown in the table above. Based on the data, what is the calculated heat absorbed by the water reported with the appropriate number of significant figures?

Answer:

1642 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of water = 50.003g

Temperature of water= 24.95C

Specific heat capacity for water = 4.184J/g C

Mass of metal = 63.546 g

Temperature of metal 99.95°C

Specific heat capacity for metal ?

Final temperature = 32.80° C

To calculate the heat absorbed by water, Q, let's use the formula :

Q = ∆T * mass of water * specific heat

Where ∆T = 32.80°C - 24.95°C = 7.85°C

Therefore,

Q= 7.85 * 50.003 * 4.184

Q = 1642.32 J

≈ 1642 J

why is the ability of apple snails to survive an increase in the salinity of water considered an adaptation
masya89 [10]

Apple snails inhabit a wide range of ecosystems from swamps, ditches and ponds to lakes and rivers. The majority of the species prefer lentic water above streaming water and only a few species have adapted to rivers with strong current.


<span>Breathing through the siphon when submerged (<span>Pomacea canaliculata</span>).</span>

The lung/gills combination in apple snails reflects their adaptation to habitats with oxygen poor water. This is often the case in swamps and shallow waters. The without thelung they would completely depend on their gills, which would decrease their ability to survive. 
Another advantage of air breathing in combination with a shell door (operculum) is the ability to survive periods of drought often common in these habitats during the dry season.
