How does a longshore current change the beach

Chemistry
1 answer:
Shtirlitz [24]3 years ago

Answer:

As this sheet of water moves on and off the beach, it can “capture” and transport beach sediment back out to sea. This process, known as “longshore drift,” can cause significant beach erosion.

A solution contains naphthalene (C10H8) dissolved in hexane (C6H14) at a concentration of 13.06% naphthalene by mass. Calculate
worty [1.4K]

Answer: The vapor pressure of the solution at 25^0C is 137 torr

Explanation:

As the relative lowering of vapor pressure is directly proportional to the amount of dissolved solute.

The formula for relative lowering of vapor pressure will be,

\frac{p^o-p_s}{p^o}=i\times x_2

where,

\frac{p^o-p_s}{p^o}= relative lowering in vapor pressure

i = Van'T Hoff factor = 1 (for non electrolytes)

x_2 = mole fraction of solute  =\frac{\text {moles of solute}}{\text {total moles}}

Given : 13.06 g of napthalene is present in 100 g of solution, thus (100-13.06) g = 86.94 g of hexane

moles of solute (napthalene) = \frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{13.06g}{128g/mol}=0.102moles

moles of solvent (hexane) = \frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{86.94g}{86g/mol}=1.01moles

Total moles = moles of solute (napthalene)  + moles of solvent (hexane) = 0.102 + 1.01 = 1.112

x_2 = mole fraction of solute (napthalene) =\frac{0.102}{1.112}=0.0917

\frac{151-p_s}{151}=1\times 0.0917

p_s=137torr

Thus the vapor pressure of the solution at 25^0C is 137 torr

A sixth grade teacher takes students on a field trip to the beach. One student finds several pebbles that have a rounded shape a
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

C: The shape of the pebbles is a result of weathering and deposition

Explanation:

For the several pebbles to have a rounded shape and smooth to the touch, it will undergo weathering and deposition. This is because weathering involves breaking down of rocks and creating new sediments. This weathering could be either chemical weathering or physical weathering where Chemical weathering is the decomposition of rocks which are caused by chemical reactions and which result in formation of new compound while physical weathering is the breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces. On the other hand, deposition occurs when the agents of erosion such as wind or water deposit sediments from one spot to another which in turn changes the shape of the land.

Thus, the shape of the pebbles are as a result weathering of the parent rocks and from deposition.

Large sandbars along the coastline that form from deposition of
olga55 [171]

Barrier island refers to the large sandbars along the coastline that form

from deposition of sand over long period of time.

<h3>Features of a Sandy environment </h3>

The features of a sandy environment include the following:

  • Spits
  • Barrier islands
  • Tombolos

Barrier Island are formed when sand is deposited over a long time and this

helps to prevent erosion along the coastline area.

Chemical reaction (dissociation) 1: C₂O₄H₂(aq) ⇄ C₂O₄H⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).
Chemical reaction (dissociation) 2: C₂O₄H⁻(aq) ⇄ C₂O₄²⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).
c(C₂O₄H⁻) = c(H⁺) = x.
c(C₂O₄H₂) = 0.0269 M.
pKa₁ = 1.23.
Ka₁ = 10∧(-1.23) = 0.059.
Ka₁ = c(C₂O₄H⁻) · c(H⁺) / c(C₂O₄H₂).
0.059 = x² / (0.0269 M - x).
Solve quadratic eqaution: x = c(H⁺) = 0.02 M.
pH = -log(0.02 M) = 1.7.
