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.

The answer is B. This is because Sodium has 1 valence electron and Fluorine has 7 valence electrons. All elements want 8 valence electrons so they may be stale, like the noble gases are. Hope this helps.

A map here shows the motion of a tectonic plate off the coast of the western united states. Which evidence supports the theory o

notsponge [240]

Answer:

Fossils, the shape of continents, the mid-ocean ridge system, sea floor sediment deposits, and the magnetism of rocks.

Explanation:

Fossils, the continent's shape, the mid-ocean ridge system, sea floor sediment deposits, and the magnetism of rocks on the sea floor are the evidences that support the theory of plate tectonics in the area. Fossils provides information to us when and where plants and animals once existed. Due to diverging plates, some life became isolated, and evolved into new species. Continental ‘fit’ through coastline matching. Some division of continents look as though they should fit together, e.g. South America and Africa.

How many formula units of sodium chloride (NaCl) may theoretically be produced from 13.0 g FeCl3?

algol [13]

Answer:

$1.445\times 10^{23}$ formula units of sodium chloride can be formed from 13.0 gram of ferric chloride.

Explanation:

Mass of ferric chloride = 13.0 g

Moles of ferric chloride = $\frac{13.0 g}{162.5 g/mol}=0.08 mol$

1 mole of ferric chloride has three moles of chloride ions.Then 0.08 moles of ferric chloride will have :

$3\times 0.08 mol=0.24 mol$ of chloride

$Na^++Cl^-\rightarrow NaCl$

1 mole of sodium ion reacts with 1 mole of chloride ion to form 1 mole of NaCl. Then 0.24 moles of chloride ion will give:

$\frac{1}{1}\times 0.24 mol=0.24 mol$ of NaCl

1 mole = $N_A=6.022\times 10^{23}$ molecules/ atoms

Number of NaCl molecules in 0.24 moles :

$=6.022\times 10^{23}\times 0.24=1.445\times 10^{23} molecules$

$1.445\times 10^{23}$ formula units of sodium chloride can be formed from 13.0 gram of ferric chloride.
