How does mercury move through the ecosystem through excavation?

Chemistry
1 answer:
iragen [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Mercury is released into the environment from many sources. Mercury becomes airborne when rocks erode, volcanoes erupt and soil decomposes. It then circulates in the atmosphere and is redistributed throughout the environment.

I think this is right.

Identify the effect of increasing acidity on the solubility of the given compounds.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

All the given compounds are basic on acidifying their solubility increases.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • C a_{3}\left(P O_{4}\right)_{2} solubility will increase, since it is basic in nature, on acidifying  solubility increases.
  • F e S being basic on acidification, the solubility increases.
  • M g C O_{3} is alkaline in nature, it gets neutralized and there is no increase in acidity.
  • M g B r_{2} is a salt and it shows no effect on acidification.
  • A g I is a salt but insoluble in water and shows no effect on acidification.
  • M g(O H)_{2} is strongly basic in nature, on acidifying the solubility increases.

How does an atom become a positively charged ion
sladkih [1.3K]
When, it donates electons.

as for example take
NaCl ( sodium chloride)

it's an ionic compund,
that means it is formed by donating or gaining electrons

Na is writen first than, it must be electropositive i.e it has donated electons which made it positive and the clorine gains electron so it's electronegative.

Na is positive because
as we know it's atomic number is 11 that means it has 11 protons and 11 electrons
now, when it donate electon it has, greater number of protons whose change is +ve so the atom becomes overall positively charged ion or cation.

and something same happens in clorine and because it gains one electron and the number of electrons increase in it by 1 whise charge is -ve so, the atom becomes negatively charged ion or anion which has a -1 charge.
