What happens to the population size of each of the pond organisms when the perch population size is decreased? How many of the s

I found a presentation of Food web of a pond that will greatly connect with the above problem.  http://www.eduweb.com/portfolio/earthsystems/food/foodweb4.html

Normal setting:
Species        Pop. size
Blue heron   Medium
Perch            Medium
Bass              Medium
Minnows      Medium
Inverts          Medium
Algae           Medium

If PERCH population size decreases, 
Species        Pop. sizeBlue heron   LowPerch            LowBass              MediumMinnows      HighInverts          HighAlgae           Low

As you can see, 4 other species are affected when the Perch population size decreased. Bass is not affected.

If 21.00 mL of a 0.68 M solution of C6H5NH2 required 6.60 mL of the strong acid to completely neutralize the solution, what was
Andru [333]

Answer:

pH = 2.46

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since this neutralization reaction may be assumed to occur in a 1:1 mole ratio between the base and the strong acid, it is possible to write the following moles and volume-concentrations relationship for the equivalence point:

n_{acid}=n_{base}=n_{salt}

Whereas the moles of the salt are computed as shown below:

n_{salt}=0.021L*0.68mol/L=0.01428mol

So we can divide those moles by the total volume (0.021L+0.0066L=0.0276L) to obtain the concentration of the final salt:

[salt]=0.01428mol/0.0276L=0.517M

Now, we need to keep in mind that this is an acidic salt since the base is weak and the acid strong, so the determinant ionization is:

C_6H_5NH_3^++H_2O\rightleftharpoons  C_6H_5NH_2+H_3O^+

Whose equilibrium expression is:

Ka=\frac{[C_6H_5NH_2][H_3O^+]}{C_6H_5NH_3^+}

Now, since the Kb of C6H5NH2 is 4.3 x 10^-10, its Ka is 2.326x10^-5 (Kw/Kb), we can also write:

2.326x10^{-5}=\frac{x^2}{0.517M}

Whereas x is:

x=\sqrt{0.517*2.326x10^{-5}}\\\\x=3.47x10^-3

Which also equals the concentration of hydrogen ions; therefore, the pH at the equivalence point is:

pH=-log(3.47x10^{-3})\\\\pH=2.46

Regards!

Identify 3 physical changes that could occur with a sheet of paper
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

  • 1. Dimensions: The sheet can be cut into several smaller pieces.

  • 2. Shape: the sheet can be formed into a paper ball or any other shape (using origami for example).

  • 3. Color: You can use crayons to paint the sheet and change its color.

Explanation:

<em>Physical changes</em> do not change the chemical properties. They do not transform the compounds that form the substances. They do not break and or form chemical bonds.

When you change the form, the state (solid, liquid or gas), the color, you are just changing physical properties.

Only chemical changes change the compounds that form the substance. For instance, if you burn the <em>sheet of paper</em>, then you are causing a chemical change because the organic matter in the paper will react with oxygen forming CO₂ and water, but by cutting, folding, smashing, or coloring with crayons, the compounds in the<em> sheet of paper</em> do not change.
