<h3>Answer:</h3>

Biotic

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are being tested on whether we can differentiate between abiotic and biotic factors in an ecosystem.

We need to know that factors that affect living organisms in an ecosystem are classified into abiotic factors and biotic factors.

Then, what is the difference between abiotic and bioitic factors?

Abiotic factors are non-living factors that affect living organisms in an ecosystem while biotic factors are living factors that affect organisms in an ecosystem.

What are examples of Biotic and abiotic factors.

Examples of abiotic factors include wind, temperature, humidity, climate,. etc.
Examples of abiotic factors include parasitism, mutualism, commensalism, etc.

How do we arrive at the answer to our question?

A Paramecium swimming in a lake; this is a biotic factor.
Because paramecium is a living organism which relates with other organisms in the lake ecosystem in various way.

If a gas occupies 4600 mL at 0.9 atm and 195°C, what is the new volume in ml

Bumek [7]

Answer:

The new volume is 2415 mL

Explanation:

The STP conditions refer to the standard temperature and pressure. Pressure values at 1 atmosphere and temperature at 0 ° C are used and are reference values for gases.

Boyle's law says that the volume occupied by a given gas mass at constant temperature is inversely proportional to the pressure and is expressed mathematically as:

P * V = k

Charles's law is a law that says that when the amount of gas and pressure are kept constant, the ratio between volume and temperature will always have the same value:

$\frac{V}{T} =k$

Gay-Lussac's law indicates that when there is a constant volume, as the temperature increases, the gas pressure increases. And when the temperature is decreased, the gas pressure decreases. This can be expressed mathematically in the following way:

$\frac{P}{T} =k$

Combined law equation is the combination of three gas laws called Boyle's, Charlie's and Gay-Lusac's law:

$\frac{P*V}{T} =k$

Having two different states, an initial state and an final state, it is true:

$\frac{P1*V1}{T1} =\frac{P2*V2}{T2}$

In this case:

P1= 0.9 atm
V1=4,600 mL= 4.6 L (being 1 L=1,000 mL)
T1= 195 °C= 468 °K (being 0°C=273°K)

The final state 2 is in STP conditions:

P2= 1 atm
V2= ?
T2= 0°C= 273 °K

Replacing:

$\frac{0.9 atm*4.6L}{468K} =\frac{1 atm*V2}{273K}$

Solving:

$V2=\frac{0.9 atm*4.6L}{468K}*\frac{273K}{1 atm}$

V2= 2.415 L =2,415 mL

<u><em>The new volume is 2415 mL</em></u>

Is it possible for two different compounds to be made from the exact same two elements? Why or why not? With a limited number of

mario62 [17]

Yes, it is possible to combine the same two elements to form two different compounds. An example is carbon dioxide CO2 and carbon monoxide CO. This is because two elements can form different types of bond and end up with different compounds.

There is a limited number of elements but a large number of compounds because of the above reason.

How do scientists use statistics?

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

Mathematics

Explanation:

Scientists in their own way use different types of statistics. As a child I went to a scientist lab and it was huge they had microscopes, animals in glass boxes, they use math to try to figure things out.
