A prairie dog eats grass. A coyote eats the prairie dog. This is an example

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

This is an example of a food chain

Explanation:

Think of it as a chain reaction. The grass feeds and nourishes the prairie dog. Upon eating the prairie dog, the coyote gets the nutrients from both the grass the prairie dog ate and from the prairie dog itself.

How do I find molar mass

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:The molar mass is the mass of a given chemical element or chemical compound (g) divided by the amount of substance (mol).

The molar mass of a compound can be calculated by adding the standard atomic masses (in g/mol) of the constituent atoms.

Which process is expected to have an increase in entropy?

olganol [36]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Degree of randomness of the molecules of a substance is known as entropy. More is the kinetic energy between the molecules of a substance more will be the degree of randomness.

Therefore, when a substance is present in a gaseous state then it has the maximum entropy. In liquid state, molecules are closer to each other so, there is less randomness between them.

On the other hand, in solid state molecules are much more closer to each other as they arr held by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. Therefore, they have very less entropy.

When liquid water is formed from gaseous hydrogen and oxygen molecules then gas is changing into liquid. So, there is decrease in entropy.

When $N_{2}O_{4}$ decomposes then the reaction will be as follows.

$N_{2}O_{4} \rightarrow 2NO_{2}$

Since, 1 mole is producing 2 moles. This means that degree of randomness is increasing as both the molecules are present in gaseous form.

In formation of a precipitate, aqueous solution is changing into solid state. Hence, degree of randomness is decreasing.

Rusting of iron also leads to the formation of solid as it forms $Fe_{2}O_{3}.xH_{2}O$ .

Thus, we can conclude that decomposition of $N_{2}O_{4}$ gas to $NO_{2}$ gas is the process that is expected to have an increase in entropy.

What does the subscript 2 indicate in the formula o2?

Tpy6a [65]

The subscript 2 in the formula o2 indicates that there are 2 atoms of the element oxygen, represented by the symbol "O." The subscript to the right of the symbol tells how many atoms are present of that element.

Why do the Noble gases have the highest ionization energies across a period?

Kitty [74]

Answer:

ionization energy decreases from top to bottom in groups, and increases from left to right across a period. So technically, the noble games have the largest ionization energy.
