A decrease in the population of decomposers can cause a decrease in carbon dioxide in the air (abiotic matter) of the biodome. T

SSSSS [86.1K]3 years ago

Answer:

The answer is false, because in order to decompose organic matter, decomposers take CO2 from the environment and thus generate organic decomposition.

This sentence can be misinterpreted and be confused since the explanation explains the method of CO2 release from the decomposers, but in a non-polluting way.

Explanation:

Decomposing organisms are responsible for an increase in CO2 since they transform the complex molecules of organic matter into simple inorganic compounds such as carbon dioxide, water and mineral sales that return to the substrate to be used as nutrients by producers.

Although it is important to keep in mind that this is insignificant in comparison to human contamination since CO2 is mostly released to the earth and used as NATURAL FERTILIZER and very little to the air or the gaseous environment.

18. Suggest an explanation for the observations that ethanol, C2H5OH, is completely miscible with water and that ethanethiol, C2
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

              Ethanol is completely miscible due to <u><em>presence</em></u> of Hydrogen bonding.

              Ethanethiol is partially miscible due to <u><em>absence</em></u> of Hydrogen Bonding.

Explanation:

                     The miscibility of liquids depend upon the intermolecular interactions between the two liquids. The stronger the intermolecular interactions the more miscible will be the liquids.

Among the two given examples, Ethanol is more miscible in water because it exhibits hydrogen bonding which is considered the strongest intermolecular interaction. Hydrogen bonding occurs when the hydrogen atom is bonded to more electronegative atoms like Fluorine, Oxygen and Nitrogen. In this way the hydrogen atom gets partial positive charge and the electronegative atom gets partial negative charge. Hence, these partial charges results in attracting the opposite charges on other surrounding atoms.

While, in case of Ethanethiol the hydrogen atom is not bonded to any high electronegative atom hence, there will be no hydrogen bonding and therefore, there will be less interactions between the neighbour atoms.

Which is a positive effect of the technology advance of going from a compass to a gps
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Compass - Gps                              

Explanation:

I belive the pro's                                      and cons are

                                         GPS             you are trusting a little man made device

the direction you                               to give you directions

are going on                                        and that it won't break or die

a device not a paper map

                                                Compass

You can see north east south and              it is usually carefully crafted for                                                                                                                                                                          o                                                                     outdoors but it has no roads and

west on the compass and                          if given no directions, extremely

you can see the roads follow directions                  confusing until you learn it

like go south then east.

Hydrochloric acid reacts faster with powdered zinc than with an equal mass of zinc strips because the greater the surface area o
inysia [295]

Answer:

increases the frequency of particle collisions

Explanation:

One factor upon which the rate of reaction depends is the surface area of reactants.

According to the collision theory, reactions occur when reactant particles having the required (activation) energy collide with each other, this collision is inelastic. However, collision of particles having energies less than the activation energy results in elastic collisions and no chemical reaction.

The more the exposed surface area of reactants, the greater the number of particles that come into contact with each other and the more the chances of frequent effective collisions that lead to reaction.

Thus, powdered zinc reacts faster with hydrochloric acid than zinc strips

What is one-way water moves through the nonliving parts of an ecosystem during the water system?
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Water moves through the help of living organisms in an ecosystem. ... Plants absorbs water through their root system and loss by transpiration. Water also moves through the living organisms in an ecosystem. Other nonliving processes such as evaporation, precipitation, water returns back into the atmosphere.

Explanation: welcome
