*LAST QUESTION , PLEASE HELP* Why does the land around an once active coal mine remain barren? a.) Empty coal mines are flooded

with acid rain so no life forms can survive. b.) Ozone is formed from hydrocarbons which prevents the growth of plants. c.) The ground where the coal was mined is acidic so few plants can grow there.

Answer:

the answer is 'a'

Explanation:

When air pollutants such as nitrogen oxide and sulfur dioxide mix with moisture, they change into acids. They then fall back to earth as acid rain. Wind often carries acid rain far from the pollution source.

Glucose (c6h12o6) has a single carbonyl group (-c=o) in its linear form. based on the number of oxygen atoms in glucose, how man
sveta [45]
Glucose is a hexose monosaccharide. It is one of the three major monosaccharides along with fructose and galactose. These are carbohydrates with a general formula of Cₓ(H₂O)ₓ, where x could be any number.

Now, you don't have to know the structural formula of the glucose to answer this. Just account all the elements in the glucose. You know that there are 6 oxygen atoms all in all. One of them belongs to the single carbonyl group. Consequently, that would mean that the remaining 5 oxygen atoms bond with hydrogen atoms to form 5 OH groups.

Just to be sure let us refer to the structural formula of glucose shown in the picture. It indeed has 5 OH groups.

Predict the sign for AS for each of the following systems: Water freezing Water evaporating Crystalline urea dissolving Assembly
djyliett [7]

Answer:  1.  Water freezing : \Delta S is -ve.

2. Water evaporating : \Delta S is +ve.

3. Crystalline urea dissolving : \Delta S is +ve.

4. Assembly of the plasma membrane from individual lipids: \Delta S is -ve.

5.  Assembly of a protein from individual amino acids: \Delta S is -ve.

Explanation:

Entropy is defined as the measurement of degree of randomness in a system.

It is represented by symbol S and we can only measure a change in entropy which is given by \Delta S.

If there is decrease in randomness , the sign for \Delta S is -ve and If there is increase in randomness , the sign for \Delta S is +ve.

1.  Water freezing: Entropy decreases as we move from liquid state to  to solid state and thus \Delta S is -ve.

2. Water evaporating : Entropy increases as we move from liquid state to  gaseous state and thus \Delta S is +ve.

3. Crystalline urea dissolving : The molecules convert from solid and ordered state to aqueous phase and random state. Thus the entropy increases and thus \Delta S is +ve.

4. Assembly of the plasma membrane from individual lipids:  random lipids are associating to form a single large polymer and thus entropy decreases and thus \Delta S is -ve.

5. Assembly of a protein from individual amino acids: random amino acids are associating to form a single large polymer and thus entropy decreases and thus \Delta S is -ve.

At what temperature would 0.500 moles of gas particles stored in a 100.0 mL container reach a pressure of 15.0 atm?
MArishka [77]
Hey there!

<span>In this case, the equation of Clapeyron is used :

R = 0.082 

Volume in liters :

100.0 mL / 1000 => 0.1 L 
</span>
P * V = n * R * T

15.0 * 0.1 = 0.500 * 0.082 * T

1.5 = 0.041 * T

T = 1.5 / 0.041

T = 36.5 K

A chemical reaction in which bonds are created is usually associated with ________.
Nikolay [14]

A  reaction in which bonds are created is usually associated with the Release of energy.

What are the various types of bonds?

There are three sorts of bonds:

1. Electrovalent or  electrovalent bond

2.  chemical bond

3.  dative bond

Electrovalent or electrovalent bond are formed when one or more electrons are transferred from one atom to another.

Covalent bonds are formed when the atoms during a  molecule share an equal number of electrons.

A dative bond is one in which both electrons in a shared pair come from the same atom.

Now, atoms tend to stabilize once they form chemical bonds, releasing energy within the process. Energy is released because there's a higher level of stability associated with a low energy level.

Hence, a  reaction in which bonds are created is usually associated with the release of energy.
