For a lake in Michigan, researchers have determined that largemouth bass feed on smaller fish, which in turn feed on zooplankton

allsm [11]

Answer:

the expected decline in largemouth bass is 3,000 kg.

Option d) 3,000 kg is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

In 2016, there was 600,000 kg of zooplankton in the lake.

In 2017, an accidental runoff of insecticide near the lake caused a 50 percent decline of the zooplankton population in the lake.

Now,

The remaining mass of zooplankton after the 50% decline will be;

⇒ 600,000 kg zooplankton × 50%

⇒ 600,000 × 50/100

⇒ 300,000 kg of zooplankton

Now, with 10 percent trophic efficiency; smaller fish directly feed on zooplankton; decline in smaller fish mass will be;

⇒ 300,000 kg × 10%

⇒ 300,000 × 10/100

⇒ 30000 kg

Finally, with 10 percent trophic efficiency, largemouth bash directly feed on smaller fish, so the expected decline in mass of largemouth bash will be;

⇒ 30000 kg × 10%

⇒ 30000 kg × 10/100

⇒ 3,000 kg

Therefore, the expected decline in largemouth bass is 3,000 kg.

Option d) 3,000 kg is the correct answer.

Which statement best describes the properties of sucrose?

crimeas [40]

Answer:

D. They are different from the properties of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen.

Step-by-step explanation:

Carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen are all elements.

Sucrose is a compound containing carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen. Its properties are different from those of its elements.

For example, carbon is a black solid, while oxygen and hydrogen are colourless gases. Sucrose is a white solid.

How much time would it take for 336 mg of copper to be plated at a current of 5.6 A ? Express your answer using two significant

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

1.8 × 10² s

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction that occurs upon the electroplating of copper.

Cu²⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻ ⇒ Cu(s)

We will establish the following relationships:

1 g = 1,000 mg
The molar mass of Cu is 63.55 g/mol
When 1 mole of Cu is deposited, 2 moles of electrons circulate.
The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96,486 C (Faraday's constant).
1 A = 1 C/s

The time that it would take for 336 mg of copper to be plated at a current of 5.6 A is:

$336mgCu \times \frac{1gCu}{1,000mgCu} \times \frac{1molCu}{63.55gCu} \times \frac{2mole^{-} }{1molCu} \times \frac{94,486C}{1mole^{-}} \times \frac{1s}{5.6C} = 1.8 \times 10^{2} s$

Some amount of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) breaks down to produce 3 molecules of oxygen (O2) and 6 molecules of water (H2O). How ma

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

$Atoms_H=12Atoms$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the only source of hydrogen is in the 6 molecules of water, therefore, the atoms of hydrogen, by applying stoichiometry with the Avogadro's number is:

$Atoms_H=6moleculesH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{6.022x10^{23}moleculesH_2O}\frac{2molH}{1molH_2O}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}AtomsH}{1molH} \\Atoms_H=12Atoms$

Best regards.

Typically, your percent yield is ______ than 100% because ___________________________.

masya89 [10]

Reasons why percent yield is more than 100

Typically, percent yields are understandably less than 100% because of the reasons indicated earlier. However, percent yields greater than 100% are possible if the measured product of the reaction contains impurities that cause its mass to be greater than it actually would be if the product was pure.
