TMS has 12 protons which are all equivalent and four carbons, which are also all equivalent. This means that it gives a single, strong signal in the spectrum, which turns out to be outside the range of most other signals, especially from organic compounds.
Answer:
Plants and animals are pH sensitive. The growth of plants is dependent on the nature of the soil. If the pH of the soil is greater than 7 and is alkaline, then the plants cannot grow in the soil.
Explanation:
Answer:
Intertidal zone
Neritic zone
Open-ocean zone
Note: the correct questions are found below;
In which zone do you find marshes and mangrove forests?
In which zone are plankton plentiful, providing plenty of food for the fish that live there?
In which zone would you find very little plant or animal life compared to other zones?
Explanation:
The intertidal zone, sometimes called the littoral zone, is the area of the marine shoreline that is exposed to air at low tide, and covered with seawater when the tide is high. Intertidal zonation refers to the tendency of plants and animals to form distinct communities between the high and low tide lines. Some microclimates in the littoral zone are moderated by local features and larger plants such as mangroves.
The neritic zone is the region of shallow water (200 meters depth) above the continental shelf where light penetrates to the sea floor.
Due to the abundant supply of sunlight and nutrients such as plankton in this zone, it is the most productive ocean zone supporting the vast majority of marine life.
The open oceans or pelagic ecosystems are the areas away from the coastal boundaries and above the seabed. It encompasses the entire water column and lies beyond the edge of the continental shelf. It extends from the tropics to the polar regions and from the sea surface to the abyssal depths.
The correct option is A.
To calculate the binding energy, you have to find the mass defect first.
Mass defect = [mass of proton and neutron] - Mass of the nucleus
The molar mass of thorium that we are given in the question is 234, the atomic number of thorium is 90, that means the number of neutrons in thorium is
234 - 90 = 144.
The of proton in thourium is 90, same as the atomic number.
Mass defect = {[90 * 1.00728] +[144* 1.00867]} - 234
Note that each proton has a mass of 1.00728 amu and each neutron has the mass of 1.00867 amu.
Mass defect = [90.6552 + 145.24848] - 234 = 1.90368 amu.
Note that the unit of the mass is in amu, it has to be converted to kg
To calculate the mass in kg
Mass [kg] = 1.90368 * [1kg/6.02214 * 10^-26 = 3.161135 * 10^-27
To calculate the binding energy
E = MC^2
C = Speed of light constant = 2.9979245 *10^8 m/s2
E = [3.161135 * 10^-27] * [2.9979245 *10^8]^2
E = 2.84108682069 * 10^-10.
Note that we arrive at this answer because of the number of significant figures that we used.
So, from the option given, Option A is the nearest to the calculated value and is our answer for this problem.
