Chemical weathering occurs more rapidly in what kind of climates?

1 answer:

3 0

<span>The water alone can perform chemical weathering with the aid of other chemicals which usually form acids that breaks the internal composition of the material. Hot & cold climates usually cause the flaking the outer layers of a rock (thermal expansion) but it belongs to physical weathering.
However, Physical and chemical weathering work together to disintegrate the rock more easier.
I can't specify a climate well because chemical weathering doesn't involve climate too much.

Determine the mass of 5.2 x 10 power of 21 molecules of propanol C3H7OH(l), on grams.

Alja [10]

$n(\text{C}_3\text{H}_7\text{OH}) = N(\text{C}_3\text{H}_7\text{OH}) / N_A\\ \phantom{n(\text{C}_3\text{H}_7\text{OH})} = 5.2 \times 10^{21} / (6.02 \times 10^{23})\\ \phantom{n(\text{C}_3\text{H}_7\text{OH})} = 8.6 \times 10^{-3} \; \text{mol}$

where $N_A = 6.02 \times 10^{23}\; \text{mol}^{-1}$ the Avogadro's constant that relates the number of particles to their number, in the unit moles $\text{mol}$ .

The molar mass of propanol- mass per mole propanol- can be directly deduced from its molecular formula with reference to a modern periodic table.

$M(\text{C}_3\text{H}_7\text{OH}) = \underbrace{3 \times 12.01}_{\text{carbon}} + \underbrace{8 \times 1.008}_{\text{hydrogen}} + \underbrace{1\times 16.00}_{\text{oxygen}} = 60.09 \; \text{g} \cdot \text{mol}^{-1}$

$8.6 \times 10^{-3} \; \text{mol}$ of propanol molecules would thus have a mass of $8.6 \times 10^{-3} \; \text{mol} \times 60.09 \; \text{g} \cdot \text{mol}^{-1} = 0.52 \; \text{g}$

What are 2 reasons molecules cannot pass easily through the cell membrane? What part of the cell membrane helps them get through

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

The cell membrane's main trait is its selective permeability, which means that it allows some substances to cross it easily, but not others. Small molecules that are nonpolar (have no charge) can cross the membrane easily through diffusion, but ions (charged molecules) and larger molecules typically cannot. A concentration gradient is a just a region of space over which the concentration of a substance changes, and substances will naturally move down their gradients, from an area of higher to an area of lower concentration.

In cells, some molecules can move down their concentration gradients by crossing the lipid portion of the membrane directly, while others must pass through membrane proteins in a process called facilitated diffusion.

Explanation:

there are your two reasons molecules cannot pass easily through the cell membrane and what part of the cell membrane helps them get through is concentration gradient

Why does our body need to use both mechanical and chemical digestion when we are breaking down our food?

melomori [17]

Answer:

Chemical digestion is a vital part of the digestive process. Without it, your body wouldn't be able to absorb nutrients from the foods you eat, also chemical digestion uses enzymes to break down food

mechanical digestion involves physical movements, such as chewing and muscle contractions,

What is the concentration of chloride ions in a solution formed by mixing 150. mL of a 1.50 M NaCl solution with 250. mL of a 0.

joja [24]

Here, we apply a mass balance:
Moles of chloride ions in final solution = sum of moles of chloride ions in added solutions

We must also not that each mole of sodium chloride will release one mole of chloride ions, while each mole of magnesium chloride will release two moles of chloride ions.
Moles = concentration * volume
Moles in final solution = moles in NaCl solution + moles in MgCl₂ solution
C * (150 + 250) = 1.5 * 150 + 2 * 0.75 * 250
C = 1.5 M

The final concentration is 1.5 M
