Answer: edge 2020

A number of energy transformations occur when water that is stored behind a dam is changed into electrical energy. For each step listed, identify the energy transformation.

Lake water flows downward through tunnels.

✔ potential to kinetic

Flowing water turns turbines.

✔ kinetic to mechanical

Turbines generate electricity.

✔ mechanical to electrical

Answer:

D. As water flows through the channels toward the turbines, it has kinetic energy. This is changed to mechanical energy as the water turns the turbines. Then the mechanical energy of the turbines is changed to electrical energy by the generator.

Explanation:

I hope this helps. :)

A student is planning an investigation of an acid-base reaction. Which of the following is not an accepted method of monitoring
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Conductivity meter

Explanation:

A conductivity meter is normally used to measure the amount of electrical current or conductance in a solution. Conductivity is most useful in determining the overall health of a natural water body.

A pH paper is used to determine the pH of a solution. This is done by dipping part of the paper into a solution of interest and watching the color change. The pH paper comes in a color-coded scale indicating the pH that something has when the paper turns a certain color.

An indicator is an organic compound that changes its colour depending on the pH of the solution.

Since neutralization reaction can only be monitored by monitoring the pH of the solution, a conductivity meter cannot be used to monitor the progress of a neutralization reaction since it does not monitor the change in pH of the system under study.

The mechanism for producing a concentrated urine involves all of the following except
avanturin [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is "obligatory water reabsorption in the proximal convoluted tubule".

Explanation:

The mechanism for producing concentrated urine cannot include the obligatory reabsorption of water in the proximal convoluted tubule since this process is part of the nephron, the system that filters the blood. Glucose and amino acids are reabsorbed almost entirely, as are approximately 70% of filtered potassium and 80% of bicarbonate.

Have a nice day!

Which of the following pairs consists of a weak acid and a strong base? (1 point)
notka56 [123]

Answer:

acetic acid, sodium hydroxide

Explanation:

A strong acid is an acid that ionizes in water to give all its hydrogen ion. Weak acid only ionize to a certain degree. Acetic acid (CH3COOH) only ionize to give one hydrogen ion despite having other hydrogen atom. This account for its weak nature as an acid as shown below:

CH3COOH <=> H^+ + CH3COO^-

A strong base is a base that ionizes in water to give all it hydroxide ion. Sodium hydroxide(NaOH) ionizes to give all its hydroxide ions. This make it a strong base as shown below;

NaOH <=> Na^+ + OH^-

Write the chemical equation for the dissolution reaction of solid iron(iii) hydroxide in water. include the phases of all specie
Allushta [10]
When solid <span>iron (iii) hydroxide is dissolved into water, it ionizes or it dissociates into ions. These ions are the iron (iii) ions and the hydroxide ions. Iron(III) oxide is classified as a base when in aqueous solution since it produces hydroxide ions. It is a weak base so it does not completely dissociate into the solution. The dissociation equation would be:

Fe(OH)3 <-----> Fe3+ + OH-

To write a complete reaction, the reaction should be balanced wherein the number of atoms of each element in the reactant side and the product side should be equal. Also, the phases of the substances should be written. We do as follows:

</span>
Fe(OH)3 (s)  <-----> Fe3+ (aq) + 3OH- (aq)
