How much salt (NaCl) is carried by a river flowing at 30.0 m3/s and containing 50.0 mg/L of salt
1 answer:
Answer:
129,600kg/day
Explanation:
The river is flowing at 30.0
1 m³ is equivalent to 1000L
flowrate of river = 30*1000 =30,000L/s
Convert L/s to litre per day by multiplying by 24*60*60
flowrate of river = 30,000 * 24*60*60 L/day
= 2,592,000,000L/day
if the river contains 50mg of salt in 1L of solution
lets find how many mg of salt Y is contained in 2,592,000,000L/day
by cross multiplying we have
Y=
Y= 129,600,000,000 mg/day
convert this value to kg/day by dividing by 1 million
Y= 129,600,000,000/1000000
Y= 129,600kg/day

Answer:
The range of atoms = (30-300 pm) depending upon the element
Explanation:
The Atomic radii of the atom is the distance from the center of the circle to the outermost orbital.
The center of the circle is the nucleus and the radii is the outermost boundary.
The actual size of the atom is decided on the basis of the Zeff . Also known as <em>effective nuclear charge.</em>
<em>Zeff: It is the net positive charge felt by the outermost electron by the nucleus.</em>
<em>The value of Zeff depends upon the shielding constant. More the shielding less will be the Zeff . Hence the size of the atom increases.</em>
Due to shielding the outermost electrons feel less pull of nucleus.
<em>The greater the Zeff , the smaller the radius of the atom.</em>
The formula used to calculate the atomic mass is :
pm
Here "pm"= picometers
<u>The size of the smallest atom H-atom = 120 pm</u>
<u>The range of atoms = (30-300 pm)</u>
