Over the course of two years the top layer of soil at a Michigan farm is blown away

Chemistry

Colt1911 [192]3 years ago
4 0

For each of the situations below, state whether it describes erosion, weathering, or possibly both.

Answer:

Erosion

Explanation:

The blowing away of the top layer of the soil at a Michigan farm is best described as scenario that shows wind erosion.

Erosion is the removal of the top layer of the earth on which plant grows. In short is the washing away of soil by stream or blowing away by wind.

When soil is blow away, it is a pure case of erosion. The process of erosion usually follows weathering or sometime occurs together with it.

Weathering is the physical disintegration and chemical decomposition of rocks to form sediments and soils.

Often times, the process of weathering and erosion occurs together. It is loose weathering products that are carried away during erosion.

In the soil layer at Michigan, the process of erosion by wind is current taking place by ablation.

What volume will 50.2 grams of co2 (g) occupy at stp?
Genrish500 [490]
Number of moles of CO2 =
Mass /Ar
= 50.2 / (12 + 32)
1.14 mols

For every 1 mol of gas, there will be
24000 cm^3 of gas

Vol. = 1.14 x 24 dm^3
= 27.36 dm^3

Kay [80]

Answer: Chemical change

Explanation:

Physical change is a change in which there is no rearrangement of atoms and thus no new substance is formed. There is only change in physical state of the substance. The change can be reversed using physical methods.

Chemical change is a change in which there is rearrangement of atoms and thus new substance is formed. There may or may not be a change in physical state. The change can only be reversed using chemical methods.

Thus when iron and sulfur are heated in a test tube, the chemical change occurs and thus lead to formation of new substances which could not be separated using magnet.

What pressure will be produced when 2.0 moles of N2 gas is heated to 68oC in a container that holds 1.25 of gas?
Stella [2.4K]

The pressure of the nitrogen gas produced is determined as 44.77 atm.

<h3>What is the pressure of the Nitrogen gas?</h3>

The pressure of the nitrogen gas is determined from ideal gas equation, as shown below;

PV = nRT

P = nRT/V

where;

  • n is number of moles = 2 moles
  • R is ideal gas constant = 0.08205 L.atm/mol.K
  • T is temperature = 68⁰C = 68 + 273 = 341 K
  • V is volume = 1.25 L

P = (2 x 0.08205 x 341)/(1.25)

P = 44.77 atm.

1. In which of these forms does acid precipitation reach the surface of<br><br> Earth?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Wet deposition

Explanation:

when the chemicals produced in the Earth can evaporate and reach the clouds, it will mixed with the water inside the clouds and form a slightly acid water than when is time to deposit the water into the Earth as snow, rain, fog or mist, the chemicals will travel with the water dissolved in it.

When they reach the soil, eventually, the water will  evaporate or will be absorbed by soil, so the chemicals that are left behind, will reach the surface of Earth.

Depending where the chemicals were deposit, they can contaminate the sea, or other water bodies, or soil areas of crops, buildings, etc.

Hope this info is useful.
