LD50 is defined as the lethal dose 50% which describes the amount of material required to kill 50% of the testing population. It is given in units of mg of chemical per kg of bodyweight of the recipient.
Comparing hydrogen peroxide and acetic acid, we see that peroxide has a lower LD50 of 900 mg/kg, with acetic acid having LD50 = 3310 mg/kg. When comparing LD50 values, the smaller value will be the more toxic compound. What this means is that in this case, a smaller amount of peroxide is required to kill 50% of the testing population compared to acetic acid.
Therefore, 3% hydrogen peroxide is more hazardous to consume.
Answer:
Desertification mainly impacts land resources.
Point and nonpoint sources refer to types of water pollution.
The process of people moving to cities, called urbanization , greatly impacts land, air, and water resources.
The burning of fossil fuels can cause smog and acid rain.
Explanation:
1) Answer: A hot pack feels warm when chemicals in it combine.
Explanation: Reactions or process in which heat is released(produced) are known as exothermic reactions or process and those in which the heat is absorbed are known as endothermic reactions or process.
If a beaker feels cools when chemical in it react then it means the chemicals have absorbed the heat energy from its surroundings and so it is an example of an endothermic process.
A hot pack feels warm when chemicals in it combine means the energy is released in the chemical reaction and so it is an example of an exothermic process.
Plants use the sun's energy for photosynthesis which is a process of forming food for the plants. Energy acts as a reactant in this process and so it is an example of endothermic process.
Frying an egg by heating it on a stove is an example of an endothermic process as the heat is required to fry the egg.
So, the only exothermic process is the second one, "A hot pack feels warm when chemicals in it combine."
2) In the given equation, heat is written as a product means the heat is released in the equation and so it is an example of an exothermic reaction.
So, the correct choice is the last one " It is exothermic because energy is released."
Metallic I’m pretty sure. :)
<span>When a chemical reaction occurs and the thermometer in the container records a drop in temperature t</span>he reaction is exothermic because heat was released by the reaction.
<span>B. The reaction is exothermic because heat was released by the reaction. is your answer.
Hoped I helped!</span>
