<u>Answer:</u> The mass of chlorine needed by the plant per day is 9.4625\times 10^8mg

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Volume o water treated per day = 25,000,000 gallons

Converting this volume from gallons to liters, we use the conversion factor:

1 gallon = 3.785 L

So, \frac{3.785L}{1\text{ gallon}}\times 25,000,000\text{ gallons}=9.4625\times 10^7L

Amount of chlorine applied for disinfection = 10 mg/L

Applying unitary method:

For 1 L of water, the amount of chlorine applied is 10 mg

So, for 9.4625\times 10^7L of water, the amount of chlorine applied will be \frac{10mg}{1L\times 9.4625\times 10^7L}=9.4625\times 10^8mg

Hence, the mass of chlorine needed by the plant per day is 9.4625\times 10^8mg

If 2,035 cal of heat is added to a 500.0 g sample of water at 35.0°C, what is the final
Lynna [10]

Answer:

39.1 °C

Explanation:

Recall the equation for specific heat:

q=mc \Delta T\\

Where q is the heat, m is the mass, c is the specific heat of the substance (in this case water), and delta T is the change in temperature.

You should know that the specific heat of water is 1 cal/g/C.

Using the information in the question:

2035=500(1)(T-35)\\2035=500T-17500\\500T=19535\\T=39.07

The final temperature is about 39.1 °C.

You find apiece of limestone on ahike. what substances are likely to have formed that rock?
enyata [817]

Limestone is mainly made up of calcium carbonate, CaCO3. When it is heated, it breaks down to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. Calcium oxide reacts with water to produce calcium hydroxide. But if u wanna know how it is formed? It's formed by erosion and weathering which is a type of 'Sedimentary Rock'. Erosion and weathering, carried rocks and end up at the sea or ocean. Which is the end way to go! At there, rocks combined by adding more and more just under the sea. The combination of rocks made it harden. First, it was just small little eroded particles end up at the sea. But at last, it became a very hard rock which isn't easy to break!

What property of water molecules allows water to dissolve many substances
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Its high polarity

Explanation:

Solvent is the that part of solution which is present in large proportion and have ability to dissolve the solute. In simplest form it is something in which other substance get dissolve. The most widely used solvent is water, other examples are toluene, acetone, ethanol, chloroform etc.

Water is called universal solvent because of high polarity all polar substance are dissolve in it. Hydrogen is less electronegative while oxygen is more electronegative and because of difference in electronegativity hydrogen carry the partial positive charge while oxygen carry partial negative charge.

Water create electrostatic interaction with other polar molecules. The negative end of water attract the positive end of polar molecules and positive end of water attract negative end of polar substance and in this way polar substance get dissolve in it.

Example:

when we stir the sodium chloride into water the cation Na⁺ ions are surrounded by the negative end of water i.e oxygen and anion Cl⁻ is surrounded by the positive end of water i.e hydrogen and in this way all salt is get dissolved.
