Answer:

Whereas solar energy makes use of the sun to generate energy, geothermal energy makes use of the heat that is trapped deep in the center of the earth. The magma buried deep down of our soil is as hot as the sun’s surface, and some of that heat manages to escape outward. When that happens, we can harness that said heat for energy.

Solar panels capture the sun's rays and convert it into heat and electricity, which is used to heat and cool your home, while geothermal solutions use the constant core temperature of the Earth to warm and cool a property.

You are presented with a white solid and told that due to careless labeling it is not clear if the substance is silver fluoride,

Lerok [7]

Because the solid is soluble in water, it cannot be calcium fluoride.
This leaves us with either silver fluoride or potassium bromide, as both are soluble in water.

Upon addition of sodium sulfate, a white precipitate forms, confirming that the substance was silver fluoride as the precipitate are of silver sulfate.

Answer: It will take for the concentration of A to decrease from 0.900 M to 0.210 M is 28.75 s

Explanation:

Zero order reaction : A reaction is said to be of zero order if the rate is independent of the concentration of the reactants, that means the rate is directly proportional to the zeroth power of the concentration of the reactants.

Expression for the zero order kinetics:

$[A]=-kt+[A]_o$
