Chemistry

asambeis [7]3 years ago

T he Richter scale is used to rate the magnitude of an earthquake -- the amount of energy it released. This is calculated using information gathered by a seismograph. The Richter scale is logarithmic, meaning that whole-number jumps indicate a tenfold increase. In this case, the increase is in wave amplitude.

An aqueous solution of ammonium sulfate is allowed to react with an aqueous solution of calcium nitrate. The net ionic equation
Veseljchak [2.6K]

The complete question is:

An aqueous solution of ammonium sulfate is allowed to react with an aqueous solution of calcium nitrate.

The net ionic equation contains which of the following species (when balanced in standard form)?

a. 2NO3-(aq)

b. Ca2+(aq)

Answer:

b. Ca2+(aq)

Ca2+ (aq) + SO4^2-(aq) --------------> CaSO4(s)

Explanation:

The overall ionic equation is:

Ca2+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) + 2NH4+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq) ---------------> CaSO4(s) + 2NH4NO3(aq)

The NO3- and NH4+ are spectator ions as they do not participate in the formation of the precipitate CaSO4.

The net ionic equation is:

Ca2+ (aq) + SO4^2-(aq) --------------> CaSO4(s)

The spectator ions form the soluble ammonium trioxonitrate V

Which wind blows cool air toward the sea at night ?
alexira [117]

Answer:

Land breeze is the wind that blows cool air from land towards sea at night.

Explanation:

Land breeze is a type of wind which is cool and blows towards sea. It occurs due to the difference in the temperature of water and land. At night, the lands cool quickly due to the removal of heat from it. So the air that is present on land is cool down and this air moves towards sea. So this breez is called land breeze because it moves from land.
