Answer is: concentration is 1.3 ppm.

Parts-per-million (10⁻⁶) is present at one-millionth of a gram per gram of sample solution, for example mg/kg.

d(Cu) = 0.0013 g/L; mass concentration of copper.

d(H₂O) = 1.00 g/mL; density of water.

m(H₂O) = V(H₂O) · d(H₂O).

m(H₂O) = 1000 mL · 1 g/mL.

m(H₂O) = 1000 g ÷ 1000 g/kg.

m(H₂O) = 1 kg; mass of water.

m(Cu) = 0.0013 g · 1000 mg/g.

m(Cu) = 1.3 mg; mass of coppper.

concentration = 1.3 mg ÷ 1 kg.

concentration = 1.3 mg/kg.

concentration = 1.3 ppm.

Answer:

Explanation:

Biodiversity is the variety and variability of life on Earth. Biodiversity is typically a measure of variation at the genetic, species, and ecosystem level. Terrestrial biodiversity is usually greater near the equator, which is the result of the warm climate and high primary productivity. Biodiversity is not distributed evenly on Earth, and is richest in the tropics. These tropical forest ecosystems cover less than 10 percent of earth's surface, and contain about 90 percent of the world's species. Marine biodiversity is usually highest along coasts in the Western Pacific, where sea surface temperature is highest, and in the mid-latitudinal band in all oceans. There are latitudinal gradients in species diversity. Biodiversity generally tends to cluster in hotspots, and has been increasing through time, but will be likely to slow in the future.

Which set of coefficients will balance this chemical equation?
Katarina [22]

Answer:

B 1,3

Explanation:

Count the atoms on each side of the arrow, they have to be equal

After arrow

2x C

6x O

4x H

Before the arrow

2x C - correct, as it is the only compound with C then there must only be 1 mole of it.

This is also the correct amount of H

We need 6x O total so 6/2 = 3

So there are 3 moles of O

What element in the second period has the largest atomic radius?
Allushta [10]

Answer:

Na is the element from the second period that has the largest atomic radius

Explanation:

The atomic radius is a chemist property from the periodic table. It is decreased when we move in a period from the periodic, so the element in the second period that has the largest radius is Na, and the shortest, the Ar

The atomic radius indicates the distance between the nucleus and the outermost valence layer. In the periods it decreases with increasing Atomic Number, to the right, due to the attraction that the nucleus exerts on the electrons of the outermost orbitals, thus decreasing the core-electron distance.

Question 4 (higher question)
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Explanation:

Describe means you should recall facts, events or processes accurately. You might need to give an account of what something looked like, or what happened.

Explain means you need to make something clear, or state the reasons for something happening.  

Compare means you need to describe similarities and differences between things. If you are asked to compare X and Y, write down something about X and something about Y, and give a comparison. Do not just write about X only or Y only.

Evaluate means you must use information supplied, or your own knowledge, to consider the evidence for and against or to identify strengths and weaknesses. You must then complete your answer with a conclusion, stating which is better and why, for example.
