Answer:

(B) Movement depends on the balance between accumulation and wastage.

Explanation:

A Glacier is accumulation of snow over a particular region over many years. It is balanced by zone of accumulation and zone of wastage. The zone of accumulation is the top of the glacier where the snow or ice accumulates whereas the zone of wastage is the bottom region of the glacier which melts slowly over time. A glacier sustains if the zone of accumulation is greater than the zone of wastage.

Calculate the ionization energy of doubly ionized lithium, li2+, which has z=3.

GrogVix [38]

Answer: I'm assuming the question is asking when it "jumps" from level 2 to level 1. In which case: 1/Î» = Rh(1/nf^2 - 1/nfi^2) = 1.10x10^7 (1/1^2 - 1/2^2) = 1.10x10^7 ( 1 - 0.25) = 1.10 x10^7 (0.75) Î» = 1.21 x 10^-7 m The wavelength produced will be about 1.21 x 10^ -7 m, or 121 nm.

For the reaction 3ZnCO3 + 2H3PO4 —> 3H2O + 3CO2, how many miles of zinc carbonate are required to produce 3.0 mil of Zn3(PO4)

drek231 [11]

Answer:

$\boxed{ \text{9.0 mol of ZnCO$_{3}$}}$

Explanation:

(a) Balanced equation

3ZnCO₃ + 2H₃PO₄ ⟶ Zn₃(PO₄)₂ + 3H₂O + 3CO₂

(b). Calculation

You want to convert moles of Zn₃(PO₄)₂ to moles of ZnCO₃

The molar ratio is 1 mol Zn₃(PO₄)₂:3 mol ZnCO₃

$\text{Moles of ZnCO$_{3}$} =\text{3.0 mol Zn$_{3}$(PO$_{4})_{2}$ } \times \dfrac{\text{3.0 mol ZnCO$_{3}$}}{\text{1 mol Zn$_{3}$(PO$_{4}$)$_{2}$}} \\\\\\= \text{9.0 mol ZnCO$_{3}$}$

You need $\boxed{ \textbf{9.0 mol of ZnCO$_{3}$}}$ to form 3.0 mol of Zn₃(PO₄)₂.

In the embden-meyerhof pathway, one mole of _____ is converted into two moles of pyruvic acid.

Blababa [14]

The answer that best fits the blank provided above is the term GLUCOSE. The Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway is a type of glycolysis, therefore, glucose is being converted in this process. Every mole of glucose is converted into two moles of pyruvic acid. Hope this helps.
