Which statement correctly describes the transfer of energy in the food chain in the land​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Aleks [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The question lacks options, the options are:

A) Energy is transferred to consumers, which convert it to nitrogen and use it to make amino acid

B) Energy from producers is converted into oxygen and transformed to consumers.

C) Energy from the sun is stored by green plants and transferred to consumers.

D) Energy is transferred to consumers, which use it to produce food.

The answer is C

Explanation:

Organisms obtain energy in an ecosystem by feeding on one another in a chain called FOOD CHAIN. Energy is transferred when one organism feeds on another. A food chain always begins with a PRODUCER, which is an autotrophic organism capable of producing its own food via light energy from the sun.

In a terrestrial ecosystem, the energy a plant captures via Its Chlorophyll is used to produce food during photosynthesis. This energy is stored in the plants and transferred when a set of organisms called PRIMARY CONSUMER feeds on the plant. The transfer continues in that order till decomposers.

A chef plans to mix 100% vinegar with italian dressing. the italian dressing contains 13% vinegar. the chef wants to make 150 mi
charle [14.2K]
To determine the volume of both concentration of vinegar, we need to set up two equations since we have two unknowns. 

For the first equation, we do a mass balance:

mass of 100% vinegar + mass of 13% vinegar = mass of 42% vinegar

Assuming they have the same densities, then we can write this equation in terms of volume.

V(100%) + V(13%) = V(42%)
   we let x = V(100%)
             y = V(13%)

x + y = 150

For the second equation, we do a component balance:

1.00x + .13y = 150(.42)
x + .13y = 63

The two equations are
x + y = 150
x + .13y = 63

Solving for x and y,
x = 50
y = 100

Therefore, you need to mix 50 mL of the 100% vinegar and 100 mL of the 13% vinegar.

A 33.0 mL sample of 1.15 M KBr and a 59.0 mL sample of 0.660 M KBr are mixed. The solution is then heated to evaporate water unt
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

We need 13.06 grams of silver nitrate to precipitate out silver bromide in the final solution

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

Sample 1: The 1.15 M sample  has a volume of 33.O mL

Sample 2: The 0.660 M sample has a volume of 59.0 mL

Molar mass of KBr = 119 g/mol

Molar mass of AgNO3 = 169.87 g/mol

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate number of moles for both samples

Number of moles = Molarity * Volume

Sample 1:  1.15 M * 33 *10^-3 L = 0.03795 moles

Sample 2: 0.660 M *59*10^-3 L = 0.03894 moles

Total mol KBr = 0.03795 + 0.03894 = 0.07689 moles

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate total mass

mass = Number of moles * Molar mass

mass = 0.07689 moles * 119 g/moles = 9.15 grams  ( in 55mL)

<u>Step 4</u>: Calculate moles of AgBr

AgNO3 reacts with KBr  

KBr(aq) + AgNO3(aq) → AgBr(s) + KNO3(aq)

1 mole of KBr consumed, needs 1 mole of AgNO3 to produce 1 mole of AgBr and 1 mole of KNO3

So 0.07689 moles of KBr wll need 0.07689 moles of AgNO3

<u>Step 5:</u> Calculate mass of silver nitrate

mass of AgNO3 = Moles of AgNO3 * Molar mass of AgNO3

mass of AgNO3 = 0.07689 moles * 169.87 g/mol = 13.06 grams

We need 13.06 grams of silver nitrate to precipitate out silver bromide in the final solution

1. Which of the following is a correctly written thermochemical equation?
WITCHER [35]

Explanation:

1. Thermochemical equation is balance stoichiometric chemical equation written with the phases of the reactants and products in the brackets along with the enthalpy change of the reaction.

The given correct thermochemical reactions are:

Fe(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow Fe_2O_3(s),\Delta H = 3,926 kJ&#10;

C_3H_8(g)+5O_2 (g)\rightarrow 3CO_2 (g)+4H_2O(l),\Delta H= 2,220 kJ/mol

2. Phase change affect the value of the enthalpy change of the thermochemical equation. This is because change in phase is accompanied by change in energy. For example:

H_2O(s)\rightarrow H_2O(g),\Delta H_{s}=51.1 kJ/mol

H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_2O(g),\Delta H_{v}=40.65 kJ/mol

In both reaction phase of water is changing with change in energy of enthalpy of reaction.
