4 0
<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.

Which statement about protons is false?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option 4.

<u>Explanation:</u>

There are three sub-atomic particles present in an atom. They are: electrons, protons and neutrons.

Protons constitute in each and every atom.

The charge on proton is of equal magnitude as that of electron but having opposite sign. Proton carry a positive charge and electron carry a negative charge.

Protons and neutrons, both determine the mass of an atom.

Mass of 1 proton = 1.007276 u

Mass of 1 neutron = 1.008664 u

Mass of 1 electron = 0.00054858 u

Mass of proton is almost same as that of neutron but is more than the mass of electron.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.

Consider two different ions. The anion has a valence of -2. The cation has a valence of +2. The two ions are separated by a dist
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Force of attraction = 35.96 \times 10^{27}N

Explanation:

Given: charge on anion = -2

Charge on cation = +2

Distance = 1 nm = 10^{-9} m

To calculate: Force of attraction.

Solution: The force of attraction is calculated by using equation,

F = \dfrac{k \times q_1 q_2}{ \r^2} ---(1)

where, q represents the charge and the subscripts 1 and 2 represents cation and anion.

k = 8.99 \times 10^9 \ Nm^{2}C^{-2}

F = force of attraction

r = distance between ions.

Substituting all the values in the equation (1) the equation becomes

F = \dfrac{8.99 \times 10^9 \times 2 \times 2}{ \left ( 10^-9 \right )^2 }

Force of attraction = 35.96 \times 10^{27}N

Suppose the flask is already at equilibrium but then the volume of the reaction flask is then reduced what will happen
sveta [45]

1) Answer is: c) The reaction will proceed right.

Balanced chemical reaction: N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) ⇄ 2NH₃(g) ΔH = +92 kJ.

Reducing the volume of the system increase the partial pressures of the products and reactants.

With a pressure increase due to a decrease in volume, the side of the equilibrium with fewer moles is more favorable, there are 4 moles at the left side (three moles of hydrogen and one mole of nitrogen) and 2 moles (ammonia) at the right side of the reaction.

2) Answer is: d) The partial pressure of ammonia will increase.

This reaction is endothermic (enthalpy is higher than zero), which means that heat is added.

According to Le Chatelier's principle when the reaction is endothermic heat is included as a reactant and when the temperature increased, the heat of the system increase, so the system consume some of that heat by shifting the equilibrium to the right,  producing more ammonia.
