How natural plants and wetlands purify water

1 answer:

7 0

Plants and wetlands purify water by acting as filter media. The roots of the plants and the wetlands would trap pollutants like sediments and hold onto the. In wetlands, the flow of water is slow allowing for the sediments to settle due to gravity onto the bottom where the plants would accumulate them into place. With this, excess nutrients would be remove and will prevent polluting bodies of water. Also, bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella can be filtered out from the water. There are plants that works excellent for filtering out pollutants like the lilies, hornwort, bulrushes and rushes.

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt {QUESTION:}}}$

The solid product from reaction of sulfuric acid with sucrose is?

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt {ANSWER:}}}$

Concentrated <u>sulfuric acid</u> is added to sucrose forming carbon, steam and <u>sulfur</u> dioxide.

<h3>RELATED TO THE QUESTION </h3>

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt {What \: is \: solid?:}}}$

<u>Solid is one of the four fundamental states of matter</u>. The molecules in a solid are closely packed together and contain the least amount of kinetic energy.
<u>A solid is characterized by structural rigidity and resistance to a force applied to the surface</u>.

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt {What \: is \: sulfur \: acid?}}}$

<u>Sulfuric acid or sulphuric acid, also known as oil of vitriol, is a mineral acid composed of the elements sulfur, oxygen and hydrogen</u>, with molecular formula H₂SO₄. It is a colorless, odorless and viscous liquid that is miscible with water at all concentrations.

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt{What \: is \: sucrose?}}}$

<u>Sucrose is common sugar. It is a disaccharide</u>, a molecule composed of two monosaccharides: glucose and fructose. Sucrose is produced naturally in plants, from which table sugar is refined. It has the molecular formula C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁.

Which of the following is not true of "concentration"?

lions [1.4K]

The correct answer is B. The concentration of a solution does not decreases when you add more solute to the solvent. Instead, the concentration increases. Concentration is expressed as the amount of solute per unit of solvent. Therefore, increasing the solute, increases this value and increasing the solvent, decreases this value.

A phosphate buffer solution (25.00 mL sample) used for a growth medium was titrated with 0.1000 M hydrochloric acid. The compone

AysviL [449]

Answer:

0,07448M of phosphate buffer

Explanation:

sodium monohydrogenphosphate (Na₂HP) and sodium dihydrogenphosphate (NaH₂P) react with HCl thus:

Na₂HP + HCl ⇄ NaH₂P + NaCl <em>(1)</em>

NaH₂P + HCl ⇄ H₃P + NaCl <em>(2)</em>

The first endpoint is due the reaction (1), When all phosphate buffer is as NaH₂P form, begins the second reaction. That means that the second endpoint is due the total concentration of phosphate that is obtained thus:

0,01862L of HCl× $\frac{0,1000mol}{L}$ = 1,862x10⁻³moles of HCl ≡ moles of phosphate buffer.

The concentration is:

$\frac{1,862x10^{-3}moles}{0,02500L}$ = <em>0,07448M of phosphate buffer</em>

I hope it helps!
