The answer is; C

Natural disasters occur independently of whether a population is densely populated or sparsely populated. The other options are dependent on population density. The higher the population, the higher the stress levels due to increased competition for resources. Disease also spreads rapidly in dense populations than sparse populations. Rate of predation also depends on densities of predator and prey populations.

What is the MOLAR heat of combustion of methane(CH₄) if 64.00g of methane are burned to heat 75.0 ml of water from 25.00°C to 95

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

-5.51 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the heat required to heat the water.

We use the following expression.

$Q = c \times m \times \Delta T$

where,

c: specific heat capacity
m: mass
ΔT: change in the temperature

The average density of water is 1 g/mL, so 75.0 mL ≅ 75.0 g.

$Q = 4.184J/g.\°C \times 75.0g \times (95.00\°C - 25.00\°C) = 2.20 \times 10^{3} J = 2.20 kJ$

Step 2: Calculate the heat released by the methane

According to the law of conservation of energy, the sum of the heat released by the combustion of methane (Qc) and the heat absorbed by the water (Qw) is zero

Qc + Qw = 0

Qc = -Qw = -22.0 kJ

Step 3: Calculate the molar heat of combustion of methane.

The molar mass of methane is 16.04 g/mol. We use this data to find the molar heat of combustion of methane, considering that 22.0 kJ are released by the combustion of 64.00 g of methane.

$\frac{-22.0kJ}{64.00g} \times \frac{16.04g}{mol} = -5.51 kJ/mol$

open the phase diagram for co2 given in the introduction again. use the phase diagram for co2 in the interactive activity and de

Annette [7]

The phase diagram of CO2 has a melting curve that slopes up and to the right, in contrast to the phase diagram of water, which has a more conventional shape. It is impossible for liquid CO2 to exist at pressures lower than 5.11 atm because the triple point is 5.11 atm and 56.6 °C.

Due to the fact that ice is less thick than liquid water, the phase diagram of water has an odd melting point that drops with pressure. Carbon dioxide cannot exist as a liquid at atmospheric pressure, according to the phase diagram of the gas. Thus, gaseous carbon dioxide directly sublimes from solid carbon dioxide.

How you could use the scientific method to learn whether water really does take longer to boil if you are watching it.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Please find the detailed explanation below

Explanation:

A scientific method is a sequence of steps that is used to solve a problem. Every scientific method begins with a problem that needs to be solved.

Hence, in order to determine whether water really does take longer to boil if you are watching it, we employ the steps involved in a scientific method.

1) Ask a question/Make observation: This must initiate the process. The observation/question made here is that DOES WATER TAKE LONGER TIME TO BOIL WHEN WATCHED?

2. Formulating hypothesis; an hypothesis is a testable prediction of a possible solution to the stated problem. In this case, an hypothesis could read: IF water is watched while boiling, THEN it will take a longer time to boil. A hypothesis must be tested for it to be proved or disproved.

3. Test hypothesis: The formulated hypothesis is tested via conducting an experiment. The set up of the experiment can involve one group where water is boiled while watching it and another where water is boiled without watching. The former group is called Experimental group, while the latter group is called Control group. The time it takes for each group of water to boil will be recorded.

The independent variable (manipulated variable) will be the WATCHING, while the dependent variable (tested/responding variable) will be the TIME IT TAKES FOR WATER TO BOIL

4. Analyse the data; the data refers to the recorded time for each group of water. This will be analysed and compared.

5. Make conclusion; the conclusion depends on the result, which is the recorded time for each group of boiled water. Based on the result, the hypothesis can either be rejected or accepted. For example, if the control group boils faster than the experimental group, our hypothesis will be accepted but if otherwise, the hypothesis will be rejected.

Therefore, via the scientific method, it can be determined if it really takes longer time for water to boil while watched.
