Answer:

When measuring concentration you compare the amount of solute to the amount of solvent or solution.

Explanation:

The concentration is a measure of how much solute is present in certain amount of solvent or solution. There are many quantitative expressions for the concentration. Some of those expressions are: percentage, molarity, molality, molar fraction, among others.

This table shows the expressions for some concentration measures, showing the amounts compared.

Concentration amounts compared in form of ratio

Percentage, mass/mass (mass of solute / mass of solution) × 100

Percentage, vol./vol. (vol. of solue / vol. of solution) × 100

Molarity (moles of solute / liters of solution)

Molality (moles of solute / Kg of solvent)

Atoms have no electric charge because the protons and electrons "cancel out" each others charges. Neutrons have no charge. What is the atomic number of an element? The atomic number is the number of protons in the atom's nucleus.

Hope this helps have a great day :)

A water treatment plant applies chlorine for disinfection so that 10 mg/L chlorine is achieved immediately after mixing. The vol

Vlada [557]

Answer: The mass of chlorine needed by the plant per day is $9.4625\times 10^8mg$

Explanation:

We are given:

Volume o water treated per day = 25,000,000 gallons

Converting this volume from gallons to liters, we use the conversion factor:

1 gallon = 3.785 L

So, $\frac{3.785L}{1\text{ gallon}}\times 25,000,000\text{ gallons}=9.4625\times 10^7L$

Amount of chlorine applied for disinfection = 10 mg/L

Applying unitary method:

For 1 L of water, the amount of chlorine applied is 10 mg

So, for $9.4625\times 10^7L$ of water, the amount of chlorine applied will be $\frac{10mg}{1L\times 9.4625\times 10^7L}=9.4625\times 10^8mg$

Hence, the mass of chlorine needed by the plant per day is $9.4625\times 10^8mg$

Explain how natural resources are identified and why natural recourses are in evenly distributed.

mixer [17]

Answer:

Natural resources are not evenly distributed all over the world. Some places are more endowed that others — for instance, some regions have lots of water (and access to ocean and seas). Others have lots of minerals and forestlands. Others have metallic rocks, wildlife, fossil fuels and so on.
