Why is the base of an energy pyramid wider than the top

Chemistry
1 answer:
Zepler [3.9K]3 years ago
5 0

It is due to a lack of providable energy to the next trophic level of the energy pyramid. Primary consumers only obtain around 10% of energy that producers have, and the energy depletes as you move further and further up the food chain, until you reach the tertiary consumers which have the least amount of energy at their disposal, meaning there are less of them than other organisms further down the energy pyramid.


Hope this helped!

Suppose the formation of nitrosyl chloride proceeds by the following mechanism: step elementary reaction rate constant 1 NO(g) +
adoni [48]

Answer:

Overall reaction equation;

2NO(g) +Cl2(g) -----> 2NOCl (g)

Explanation:

Given

1) NO(g) + Cl2(g) → NOCl2(g)

2) NOCl2(g) + NO(g) → 2NOCl(g)

Overall reaction equation;

2NO(g) +Cl2(g) -----> 2NOCl (g)

k1= [NOCl2]

k-1= [NO] [Cl2]

k2 = [NOCl2] [NO]

Equilibrium for the first equation (reaction 1)

K= k1/k-1 = [NOCl2]/[NO] [Cl2]

Therefore

[NOCl2] = k1/k-1 [NO] [Cl2]

Rate= k2× k1/k-1 [NO]^2 [Cl2]

Rate = Koverall [NO]^2 [Cl2]

Where Koverall= k1k2/k-1

Rank these photons in terms of increasing energy:<br> (b) red (λ = 660 nm);
Rama09 [41]

The order of increasing energy is red, yellow, and blue

In physics for a given wave function, the wavelength is defined as the distance between two consecutive points in the waveform. Light is considered a wave and a particle. White light can split into colors of different wavelengths.

The wavelength of visible light ranges from 300 to 700 nm comprising the color VIBGYOR. Wavelength is calculated by the formula velocity divided by the frequency.

If the frequency of the given form is high, then the energy is also high.

#SPJ4

Rank the following photons in terms of increasing energy: (a) blue (λ = 453 nm); (b) red (λ = 660 nm); (c) yellow (λ = 595 nm).

As the frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength, the energy is also inversely proportional. A higher wavelength will have lower energy.
