Yes he can invert the pyramid

Explanation:

The pyramid of energy shows a graphical illustration of the amount of energy present at each trophic level.

  • In an ecosystem, the energy decreases as we move from producers to tertiary consumers higher up in the pyramid.
  • In this example, the insects are the primary consumers and the energy flows from them to the secondary consumers which are the bird.
  • The insects are abundant in population compared to the bird.
  • The energy accrued to the bird from feeding on the producers is higher when compared to that derived from the birds feeding on the primary consumers and on.
  • This sequence can be inverted in the reverse sequence.
  • This will give an inverted pyramid of energy.
  • Here, we can specifically the number of insect each bird feeds on.
  • It could also be in the form that the bird dies and some insects begins to feed on it for energy.

Octane has a density of 0.703 g/ml. Calculate the mass of CO2(g) produced by burning one
STatiana [176]

The mass of CO₂ gas produced during the combustion of one gallon of octane is 8.21 kg.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Density of the octane, ρ = 0.703 g/ml</em>
  • <em>Volume of octane, v = 3.79 liters</em>

<em />

The mass of the octane burnt is calculated as follows;

m = \rho V\\\\m = 0.703 \ \frac{g}{ml} \times 3.79 \ L \ \frac{1000 \ ml}{L} \\\\m = 2,664.37 \ g

The combustion reaction of octane is given as;

2C_8H_{18} +  \ 25O_2 \ --> \ 16CO_2 \ + \ 18H_2O

From the reaction above:

228.46 g of octane -------------------> 704 g of  CO₂ gas

2,664.37 of octane --------------------> ? of CO₂ gas

= \frac{2,664.37 \times 704}{228.46} \\\\= 8,210.3 \ g\\\\= 8.21 \ kg

Thus, the mass of CO₂ gas produced during the combustion of one gallon of octane is 8.21 kg.

A mixture contains O2 at 700. torr pressure, F2 at 500. torr pressure, and Cl2 at 500. torr pressure. What is the total pressure
Softa [21]

You have to use Dalton's law of partial pressure for this question. Dalton's law of partial pressure basically states that the total pressure of the system is all of the partial pressures of the components added together. Therefore to answer the question you just need to add all the patial pressures together meaning that the total pressure would be 700+500+500=1700.

The answer would be 1700 torr.

I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear or if you have any further questions.
