The carbon cycle is closely linked to which process?

Chemistry
1 answer:
ser-zykov [4K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Photosynthesis

Explanation:

Carbon cycle involves the exchange of components between the hydrosphere, biosphere and atmosphere. During carbon cycle, materials such as gases, minerals which are necessary for life are interchange. For example, animals pass out faeces on the soil which is rich in urea. Urea decomposes to provide nitrogen into the soil through bioactive bacterials. The nitrogen is used up by plants to grow. During photosynthesis, plants uses carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and release oxygen for animals to use. It's like a purification system where one waste product from one organism is used by the other to survive.

Equation of photosynthesis

6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂.

Which statement describes a reason to consider air a mixture? A) The major constituents of air are gaseous elements. B) The comp
umka21 [38]

The correct answer is - A) The major constituents of air are gaseous elements.

With the statement ''the major constituents of air are gaseous elements'' we can easily conclude that the air is a mixture. The reason for that is that we have a plural usage of the word element, elements, which mean that there are multiple elements that make up the air.

The air is indeed predominantly a mixture of gaseous elements. The most abundant gas in the air being the nitrogen with 78.9%, oxygen with 20.95%, argon 0.93%, and carbon dioxide 0.04%, with lesser amounts of other gases also be present in it. The water vapor is also present in the air, though it is variable, being around 1% at sea level, but only 0.4% over the entire atmosphere.

A brick has a mass of 4.0 kg and the Earth has a mass of 6.0 × 1027 g. Use this information to answer the questions below. Be su
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

a) 2.4\times 10^{24} kg is the mass of 1 mole of bricks.

b) 2.5\times 10^3 moles of bricks have a mass equal to the mass of the Earth.

Explanation:

a) Mass of brick = 4.0 kg

1 mole = N_A=6.022\times 10^{23} particles/ atoms/molecules

Mass of N_A bricks :

=6.022\times 10^{23}\times 4.0 kg=2.4088\times 10^{24} kg\approx 2.4\times 10^{24} kg

2.4\times 10^{24} kg is the mass of 1 mole of bricks.

b)

Mass of the Earth = M = 6.0\times 10^{27} kg

Mass of 1 mole of brick = m=2.4\times 10^{24} kg

Let the moles of brick with equal mass of the Earth be x.

m\times x=M

x=\frac{M}{m}=\frac{6.0\times 10^{27}kg}{2.4\times 10^{24} kg}=2.5\times 10^3

2.5\times 10^3 moles of bricks have a mass equal to the mass of the Earth.
