WHAT IS RAIN WATER HARVESTING

Chemistry
2 answers:
NeTakaya3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Rainwater harvesting is collecting the run-off from a structure or other impervious surface in order to store it for later use. Traditionally, this involves harvesting the rain from a roof. The rain will collect in gutters that channel the water into downspouts and then into some sort of storage vessel.

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>Rainwater harvesting is the accumulation and storage of rainwater for reuse on-site, rather than allowing it to run off. Rainwater can be collected from rivers or roofs, and in many places, the water collected is redirected to a deep pit (well, shaft, or borehole), a reservoir with percolation, or collected from dew or fog with nets or other tools. Its uses include water for gardens, livestock, irrigation, domestic use with proper treatment, indoor heating for houses, etc. The harvested water can also be used as drinking water, longer-term storage, and for other purposes such as groundwater recharge.</em>

<em>Rainwater harvesting is one of the simplest and oldest methods of self-supply of water for households usually financed by the user.</em>

A pan containing 20.0 grams of water was allowed to cool from a temperature of 95.0 °C. If the amount of heat released is 1,200
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

81°C.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the relation:

<em>Q = m.c.ΔT,</em>

where, Q is the amount of heat released from water (Q = - 1200 J).

m is the mass of the water (m = 20.0 g).

c is the specific heat capacity of water (c of water = 4.186 J/g.°C).

ΔT is the difference between the initial and final temperature (ΔT = final T - initial T = final T - 95.0°C).

∵ Q = m.c.ΔT

∴ (- 1200 J) = (20.0 g)(4.186 J/g.°C)(final T - 95.0°C ).

(- 1200 J) = 83.72 final T - 7953.

∴ final T = (- 1200 J + 7953)/83.72 = 80.67°C ≅ 81.0°C.

<em>So, the right choice is: 81°C.</em>

Water has a density of 1.0g/ml * Physical Property Physical Change Chemical Property Chemical Change
Daniel [21]

The density of water is a physical property.

You can measure it without changing the water to a different substance.

It is <em>not a physical change</em> because the water does not change to ice or steam.

You can observe a <em>chemical property</em> or a <em>chemical change</em> only if the water <em>changes to a different substance</em>.

Which statement about bases is incorrect? Select one: a. All bases contain hydroxide ions. b. All bases taste bitter. c. All bas
NemiM [27]

Answer

a

Explanation:

While the Arrhenius definition of a base agrees with this statement, the Bronsted-Lowry and Lewis definitions don't. Under Bronsted-Lowry, a base is anything that can accept a proton (ex// NH3). Under lewis, it is anything that can donate an electron (ex// Cl-).

Bases are usually bitter and turn red litmus paper blue, and are slippery.
