I found a presentation of Food web of a pond that will greatly connect with the above problem. http://www.eduweb.com/portfolio/earthsystems/food/foodweb4.html

Normal setting:

stepladder [879]

Answer:

Explanation:

THE PHOTOCHEMICAL(LIGHT) REACTIONS :This is a phase of photosynthesis where sunlight is used as a source of energy to manufacture two chemical compounds which are "Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate"-NADPH and "Adenosine triphosphate"-ATP.This phase of photosynthesis involves 4 steps or reactions which are :

STEP 1 : Activation or Energization of chlorophyll - In this reaction,chlorophyll molecules in green algae or plants absorb sunlight and become activated,that is the electrons of the chlorophyll molecule acquire solar energy and become excited.

STEP 2 : PHOTOLYSIS OF WATER - Here the energy absorbed by the chlorophyll molecules are used to split water molecules into H+ ions and OH-- ions.

STEP 3:Formation of NADPH -The hydrogen ions (H+) produced reacts with an NADP ( an electron carrier in the chlorophyll) to form NADPH.

STEP 4: FORMATION OF ATP - The high energy generated from the electron transfer process or chain is used to add a phosphate group to ADP (Adenosine dphosphate) to form ATP.

DARK PHASE :In this phase of photosynthesis,the NADPH generated in the light phase is used as a reducing equivalent to reduce CO2 to form Glucose (food) using the ATP generated as a source of energy.

A 1.00 g sample of a metal X (that is known to form X ions in solution) was added to 127.9 mL of 0.5000 M sulfuric acid. After a

Semenov [28]

<u>Answer:</u> The metal having molar mass equal to 26.95 g/mol is Aluminium

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$ .....(1)

Molarity of NaOH solution = 0.5000 M

Volume of solution = 0.03340 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.5000M=\frac{\text{Moles of NaOH}}{0.03340L}\\\\\text{Moles of NaOH}=(0.5000mol/L\times 0.03340L)=0.01670mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaOH and sulfuric acid follows:

$2NaOH+H_2SO_4\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of sulfuric acid

So, 0.01670 moles of NaOH will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.01670=0.00835mol$ of sulfuric acid

Excess moles of sulfuric acid = 0.00835 moles

Calculating the moles of sulfuric acid by using equation 1, we get:

Molarity of sulfuric acid solution = 0.5000 M

Volume of solution = 127.9 mL = 0.1279 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.5000M=\frac{\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4}{0.1279L}\\\\\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=(0.5000mol/L\times 0.1279L)=0.06395mol$

Number of moles of sulfuric acid reacted = 0.06395 - 0.00835 = 0.0556 moles

The chemical equation for the reaction of metal (forming $M^{3+}$ ion) and sulfuric acid follows:

$2X+3H_2SO_4\rightarrow X_2(SO_4)_3+3H_2$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

3 moles of sulfuric acid reacts with 2 moles of metal

So, 0.0556 moles of sulfuric acid will react with = $\frac{2}{3}\times 0.0556=0.0371mol$ of metal

To calculate the molar mass of metal for given number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Mass of metal = 1.00 g

Moles of metal = 0.0371 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0371mol=\frac{1.00g}{\text{Molar mass of metal}}\\\\\text{Molar mass of metal}=\frac{1.00g}{0.0371mol}=26.95g/mol$

Hence, the metal having molar mass equal to 26.95 g/mol is Aluminium

What is common to all elements in the same group in the periodic table?

Dmitry [639]

<span>C is the correct answer. Elements in the periodic table are grouped based on having similar properties. For example, the noble gases are all non-reactive and non-metallic. The electronic structure of an atom is the way the electrons are arranged within it, and this affects where they are located in the periodic table. The number of electrons in an element is the same as its group number in the periodic table (with the exception of Group 0).</span>
