With increase in the depth of the soil the temperature of soil also get increases due to high pressure present deep in the earth.

With high temperature, the metal that having high melting point such as heavy metals are present which includes lead, chromium, arsenic, zinc, cadmium, mercury etc. With incresae in depth the soil get contaminated with these heavy metal or the concentration of heavy metal may increases in soil with increase in depth which may result in low fertility of soil. Heavy metal also increases toxicity of the soil which affect the growth of crops and plants by harming the roots of flora.

Certain bacteria such as thermoacidophilus also present at this depth fo earth as they can survive in this range of temperature.

Thus, the condition of soil present more than 50 km deep in earth is not good in comparison to fresh soil present on surface.

Calculemos la formula empirica y molecular de carbonato de hierro Fe2(co3)3.Fe.38.3%C.12.3%.0.4 92% masa 292g
DENIUS [597]

Respuesta:

292 g / mol;

Por favor, consulte la explicación.

Explicación:

El número de átomos de cada elemento en el compuesto: Fe2 (co3) 3.

Fe = 2; C = 3; 0 = 3 * 3 = 9

Fe2 = 112 g / mol

C = 12 g / mol

O = 16 g /

Masa molecular = ((112 + (12 * 3) + (16 * 9)

= (112 + 36 + 144)

= 292 g / mol.

Total = 2 + 3 + 9 = 14

Fe2 = 112/292 * 100% = 38,356%

C = 36/292 * 100% = 12,328 * '

O = (16 * 9) / 292 * 100% = 49,32%

2. How many grams of water can be heated from 20.0 oC to 75oC using 12500.0 Joules?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer;

  = 0.054 kg or 54 g

Explanation;

Using the equation; Q = mcΔT where Q is the quantity of heat transferred, m is the mass, c is specific heat of the substance, ΔT is delta T, the change in temperature.  

ΔT = 75 - 20 = 55 C.  

Solve the equation for m  

m = Q/ cΔT

Mass = 12500 / (55 × 4200)

        = 0.054 kg or 54 g

The element born, b, has an atomic mass of 10.81 amu according to the periodic table. however, no single atom of boron has amass
klio [65]
The atomic mass or relative isotopic mass refers to the mass of a single particle, and therefore is tied to a certain specific isotope of an element. The dimensionless standard atomic weight instead refers to the AVERAGE of atomic mass values of a typical naturally-occurring mixture of isotopes for a sample of an element.
You can count it by yourself using formula

m = ({first isotopic distribution%}× {first atomic.mass})+ ({second isotopic distribution%}× {second atomic.mass}) / {100}
