Carbon in the lithosphere is held in soil in the form of both organic and inorganic carbon which often as calcium carbonate. Carbon can leave the soil through soil respiration – which releases CO2, or by erosion – which can carry it into rivers or the ocean, where it then enters the hydrosphere.
Answer:
c. -1020.9 kJ
Explanation:
4Fe (s) + 3 O₂ (g) --> 2 Fe₂O₃(s) ΔH = -826.0 kJ/mol.
atomic weight of iron = 56
69.03 g = 69.03 / 56
= 1.23268 moles
Heat released by 1.23268 moles
= 1.23268 x 826.0
= -1020.9 kJ .
Q = M * C *ΔT
Q / <span>ΔT = M
</span>Δf - Δi = 98.4ºC - 62.2ºC = 36.2ºC
<span>
C = 1137 J / 140 * 36.2
C = 1137 / 5068
C = 0.224 J/gºC</span>
In a way, all of the answers could be argued for (for example: in the first option: if the scientists' opinions are understood to be "informed understanding of the causes of events"), but one of the options is the best:
Scientific laws describe specific relationships in nature without offering
an explanation.
The reason why I think this is true is that many laws are phased too short and too concise to provide comprehensive explanations, instead they describe the relationships that must hold.
One of the options is pplain false:
Scientific laws explain why natural events occur. -"Scientific laws were theories that have been tested, proven, and adopted as laws." - since they are not adopted as laws.
