Where does the energy for almost all ecosystems come from

1 answer:

4 0

The Sun is the major source of energy for organisms and the ecosystems of which they are a part. Producers such as plants, algae, and cyanobacteria use the energy from sunlight to make organic matter from carbon dioxide and water. This establishes the beginning of energy flow through almost all food webs.

What is the mass of 18.0 mL of honey if its' density is 1.42 g/mL?

BigorU [14]

mass (m) = ? , volume = 18.0 ml , density = 1.42 g/ml .

$density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\ \\ d = \frac{m}{v} \\ \\ mass = density \times volume \\ \\ m = d \times v \\ \\ m = 18 \: ml \times \: 1.42 \: \frac{g}{ml} \\ \\ m = 25.56 \: g$

I hope I helped you^_^

9. If 28.56 g of K2O is produced when 25.00 g K is reactedaccording to the following equation, what is the percent yieldof the r

Mumz [18]

Answer

b. 95%

Explanation

Given:

Mass of K₂O produced (actual yield) = 28.56 g

Mass of K that reacted = 25.00 g

Equation: 4K(s) + O₂(g) → 2K₂0(s)

What to find:

The percent yield of K₂O.

Step-by-step solution:

The first step is to calculate the theoretical yield of K₂O produced.

From the balanced equation, 4 mol K produced 2 mol K₂O

Molar mass of K₂O = 94.20 g/mol)

Molar mass of K = 39.10 g/mol)

This means 4 mol x 39.10 g/mol = 156.40 g K produced 2 mol x 94.20 g/mol = 188.40 g K₂O

So 25.00 g K will produce:

$\frac{25.00\text{ }g\text{ }K\times188.40\text{ }g\text{ }K₂O}{156.40\text{ }g\text{ }K}=30.1151\text{ }g\text{ }K₂O$

Actual yield of K₂O = 28.56 g

Theoretical yield of k₂O = 30.1151 g

The percent yield for the reaction can now be calculated using the formula below:

$\begin{gathered} Percent\text{ }yield=\frac{Actual\text{ }yield}{Theoretical\text{ }yield}\times100\% \\ \\ Percent\text{ }yield=\frac{28.56\text{ }g}{30.1151\text{ }g}\times100\% \\ \\ Percent\text{ }yield=0.9484\times100\% \\ \\ Percent\text{ }yield=94.84\%\approx95\% \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the percent yield for the reaction is 95%.

How do test with crash dummies, seat belts, and air bags illustrate newton's first law of motion??

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Newton’s law of inertia is illustrated in tests with crash dummies, seat belts, and airbags, wherein the object stays in motion unless there is an unbalanced force applied to it.

Inertia is the main reason why there are seatbelts and airbags in the car. In this case, when the seatbelt is trapped to the passenger, the passenger experiences the same state of motion as the car. If the car accelerates/decelerates, the passenger experiences it too. When the car experiences collision, an unbalance force is acted upon it. This causes the car to stop abruptly, and the passenger shares the same state of motion because of the seatbelt and the airbags that apply the unbalanced force to stop the passenger to go forward.
