What is the limiting factor in determining the accumulation of siliceous ooze/calcareous ooze, respectively?

Answer:

productivity and water depth

Explanation:

The productivity and the depth of water are both equally important as it directly affects the accumulation of biogenic sediments such as the siliceous ooze and calcareous ooze. In the equator and the coastal upwelling areas, and at the site of divergence of oceans, there occurs a high rate and amount of productivity, and these are considered to be the primary productivity.  

The siliceous oozes are a good indicator of extensively high productivity in comparison to the carbonate oozes. The main reason behind this is that the silica can be easily dissolved in the surface water. On the other hand, the carbonates dissolve at a relatively lower ocean water depth, so there requires a high amount of surface productivity in order to allow these siliceous oozes to reach the ocean bottom.

Thus, the water depth and productivity, both are considered as the limiting factor in determining the accumulation of biogenic oozes.

What is the overall enthalpy of reaction for the equation shown below?
Rudiy27

Answer:

ΔH₁₂ = -867.2 Kj

Explanation:

Find enthalpy for 3H₂ + O₃ => 3H₂O given ...

2H₂ + O₂ => 2H₂O      ΔH₁ = -483.6 Kj

        3O₂ => 2O₃        ΔH₂ = + 284.6 Kj

_____________________________

3(2H₂ + O₂ => 2H₂O) => 6H₂ + 3O₂ => 6H₂O       (multiply by 3 to cancel O₂)

6H₂ + 3O₂ => 6H₂O        ΔH₁ = 3(-483.6 Kj) = -1450.6Kj

          2O₃ => 3O₂           ΔH₂ = -284.6Kj              (reverse rxn to cancel O₂)

_______________________________

6H₂ + 2O₃ => 6H₂O         ΔH₁₂ = -1735.2 Kj       (Net Reaction - not reduced)

________________________________

divide by 2 => target equation (Net Reaction - reduced)

3H₂ + O₃ => 3H₂O            ΔH₁₂ = (-1735.2/2) Kj = -867.2 Kj

Name the following covalent compound:
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Pentasulfur nonanitride.

Explanation:

In order to name a compound properly, we need to identify the type of a compound we have. The given compound consists of two non-metals, sulfur and nitrogen. This implies that we have a covalent compound in contrast to an ionic compound which consists of a metal and a non-metal.

To name a molecular/covalent compound, we should use prefixes stating the number of atoms we have. In this case, we have 5 sulfur atoms. The prefix for 5 is 'penta'. That said, we have 'pentasulfur' as our beginning of the name.

We also have 9 nitrogen atoms. The second atom in the molecular formula would have an ending of '-ide', so we expect to have 'nitride'. Adding a prefix for 9, we'd have 'nonanitride'.

Putting everything together, the name is pentasulfur nonanitride.

Some common prefixes:

mono – one (we don't state mono for the first atom, e. g., we would name CO as carbon monoxide instead of monocarbon monoxide);

di – two;

tri – three;

tetra – four;

penta – five;

hexa – six;

hepta – seven;

octa – eight;

nona – nine;

deca – ten.

Notice that 'decanitride' would be correct in case you had 10 nitrogen atoms, similarly, tetra and hexa stand for 4 and 6 instead of 5 given sulfur atoms.
