how does the increased salinity of the dead sea due to fertiliser industry impact the microscopic organisms that live there​

Chemistry

polet [3.4K]3 years ago

The sea is called "dead" because its high salinity prevents macroscopic aquatic organisms, such as fish and aquatic plants, from living in it, though minuscule quantities of bacteria and microbial fungi are present. In times of flood, the salt content of the Dead Sea can drop from its usual 35% to 30% or lower.

Assuming you have 6.24 x 1014 electrons and the surface area of the pail is 0.2 m2, what is the charge density (C/m2)?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

σ = 4.998 E-4 C/m²

Explanation:

  • 1 Coulomb (C) ≡ 6.241509 E18 electrons (e)

∴ # elect = 6.24 E14 elect

charge (Q):

⇒ Q = (6.24 E14 elect)/( 1 C /6.241509 E18 elect) = 9.998 E-5 C

charge density (σ):

  • σ = Q/S

∴ surface area (S) = 0.2 m²

⇒ σ = ( 9.998 E-5 C ) / ( 0.2 m²)

⇒ σ = 4.998 E-4 C/m²

A 40.2 g sample of a metal heated to 99.3°C is placed into a calorimeter containing 120 g of water at 21.8°C. The final temper
aliina [53]

Answer:

B) Iron (c=0.45 J/g°C)

Explanation:

Given that:-

Heat gain by water = Heat lost by metal

Thus,  

m_{water}\times C_{water}\times (T_f-T_i)=-m_{metal}\times C_{metal}\times (T_f-T_i)

Where, negative sign signifies heat loss

Or,  

m_{water}\times C_{water}\times (T_f-T_i)=m_{metal}\times C_{metal}\times (T_i-T_f)

For water:

Mass = 120 g

Initial temperature = 21.8 °C

Final temperature = 24.5 °C

Specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

For metal:

Mass = 40.2 g

Initial temperature = 99.3 °C

Final temperature = 24.5 °C

Specific heat of metal = ?

So,  

120\times 4.184\times (24.5-21.8)=40.2\times C_{metal}\times (99.3-24.5)

40.2C_{metal}\left(99.3-24.5\right)=120\times \:2.7\times \:4.184

40.2C_{metal}\left(99.3-24.5\right)=1355.616

C_{metal}=0.45\ J/g^0C

<u>This value corresponds to iron. Thus answer is B.</u>
