1.The use of land is determined both by physical factors such as topography, climate, soil types as well as human factors such as population density, technological capability and culture and traditions etc.
2. Common property resources (environmental) are natural resources owned and managed collectively by a community or society rather than by individuals.
3.

Wind erosion is a natural process that moves soil from one location to another by wind power. ... Wind erosion can be caused by a light wind that rolls soil particles along the surface through to a strong wind that lifts a large volume of soil particles into the air to create dust storms.
4. Terrace cultivation or terrace agriculture method of growing crops on sides of hills or mountains by planting on graduated terraces built into the slope. Though labour-intensive, the method has been employed effectively to maximize arable land area in variable terrains and to reduce soil erosion and water loss.

Water has a higher boiling point than expected because

Nadya [2.5K]

Evaporation occurs when water molecules on the surface gain enough energy to enter the atmosphere. However, stronger intermolecular forces between water molecules cause them to be strongly attracted to each other and to tend to stay in the liquid phase. When the temperature is raised (when heat is applied), more molecules gain the energy needed to escape these intermolecular forces and go into the vapor phase.
Therefore the best answer is D.

Given pH = 8.55 Find: [H3O+] and [OH-] Is this acidic, basic or neutral?

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The given pH = 8.55

Unknown:

[H₃O⁺] = ?

[OH⁻] = ?

In order to find these unknowns we must first establish some relationship.

pH = -log[H₃O⁺]

8.55 = -log[H₃O⁺]

[H₃O⁺] = inverse log₁₀(-8.55) = 2.82 x 10⁻⁹moldm⁻³

To find the [OH⁻],

pH + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - pH = 14 - 8.55

pOH = 5.45

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

[OH⁻] = inverse log₁₀ (-5.45) = 3.55 x 10⁻⁶moldm⁻³

The solution is basic because it has more concentration of OH⁻ ions compared to H⁺ ions.

In Lab 10 you make a stock solution of salicylic acid, and then four dilutions. The stock solution is made by diluting 5.00 ml o

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Stock solution = 1.25 *10^-3 M

Dilution 1 = 5*10^-4 M

Dilution 2= 3.75 * 10^-4 M

Dilution 3 = 2.5 *10^-4 M

Dilution 4 = 1.25 *10^-4 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The stock solution is made by diluting 5.00 ml of 1.250 x 10-2 M salicylic acid in 50.00 mL of solution.

Step 2: Calculate the concentration of the stock solution:

M1*V1 = M2*V2

⇒ with M1 = the initial concentration = 1.250 *10^-2 M

⇒ with V1 = 5 mL = 5*10^-3 L

⇒ with M2 = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with V2 = 50 mL = 50 *10^-3 L

M2 = (M1*V1)/V2

M2 = (1.250 *10^-2 * 5*10^-3 L) / 50 *10^-3

M2 = 0.00125 M = 1.25 *10^-3 M

Step 3: Calculate dilution 1

M2 = (M1*V1)/V2

M2 = (1.25*10^-3 * 10 *10^-3)/(25*10^-3L)

M2 = 0.0005 M = 5*10^-4 M

Step 4: Calculate dilution 2

M2 = (M1*V1)/V2

M2 = (1.25*10^-3 * 10 * 7.5*10^-3)/(25*10^-3)

M2 = 0.000375 M = 3.75 * 10^-4 M

Step 5: Calculate dilution 3

M2 = (M1*V1)/V2

M2 = (1.25*10^-3 * 5*10^-3) /(25*10^-3)

M2 = 0.00025 M = 2.5 *10^-4 M

Step 6: Calculate dilution 4

M2 = (M1*V1)/V2

M2 = (1.25*10^-3 * 2.5*10^-3)/(25*10^-3)

M2 = 0.000125 M = 1.25 *10^-4 M
