How many meters did a car travel if it went 65mi/hr for 4.5 hours?

4. How Does Extreme conditions accelerate erosion ?

Marianna [84]

Answer:

Explanation:

Geologic erosion influences soil formation and distribution. Accelerated erosion results from the removal of natural vegetation by human activities such as farming, ranching, forestry, and construction. The production of agricultural and forest products can be affected by excessive erosion

Which statement correctly describes the transfer of energy in the food chain in the land

Aleks [24]

Answer:

The question lacks options, the options are:

A) Energy is transferred to consumers, which convert it to nitrogen and use it to make amino acid

B) Energy from producers is converted into oxygen and transformed to consumers.

C) Energy from the sun is stored by green plants and transferred to consumers.

D) Energy is transferred to consumers, which use it to produce food.

The answer is C

Explanation:

Organisms obtain energy in an ecosystem by feeding on one another in a chain called FOOD CHAIN. Energy is transferred when one organism feeds on another. A food chain always begins with a PRODUCER, which is an autotrophic organism capable of producing its own food via light energy from the sun.

In a terrestrial ecosystem, the energy a plant captures via Its Chlorophyll is used to produce food during photosynthesis. This energy is stored in the plants and transferred when a set of organisms called PRIMARY CONSUMER feeds on the plant. The transfer continues in that order till decomposers.

You are asked to identify compound X (a white, crystalline solid), which was extracted from a plant seized by customs inspectors

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

C2H2O4

Explanation:

To get the molecular formula, we first get the empirical formula. This can be done by dividing the percentage compositions by the atomic masses. The percentage compositions are shown as follows :

C = 26.86%

H = 2.239%

O = 100 - ( 26.86 + 2.239) = 70.901%

We then proceed to divide by their atomic masses. Atomic mass of carbon is 12 a.m.u , H = 1 a.m.u , O = 16 a.m.u

The division is as follows:

C = 26.86/12 = 2.2383

H = 2.239/1 = 2.239

O = 70.901/16 = 4.4313

We now divide each by the smallest number I.e 2.2383

C = 2.2383/2.2383 = 1

H = 2.239/2.2383 = 1

O = 4.4313/2.2383 = 1.98 = 2

Thus, the empirical formula is CHO2.

To get the molecular formula, we use the molar mass .

(CHO2)n = 90

We add the atomic masses multiplied by n.

(12 + 1 + 2(16))n = 90

45n = 90

n = 90/45 = 2.

Thus , the molecular formula is C2H2O4

Solid sodium azide (NaN3) produces solid sodium and nitrogen gas. How many grams of sodium azide are needed to yield a volume of

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

52.008 grams of sodium azide are needed to yield a volume of 26.5 L of nitrogen gas at a temperature of 295 K and a pressure of 1.10 atmospheres.

Explanation:

An ideal gas is characterized by three state variables: absolute pressure (P), volume (V), and absolute temperature (T). The relationship between them constitutes the ideal gas law, an equation that relates the three variables if the amount of substance, number of moles n, remains constant and where R is the molar constant of the gases:

P*V = n*R*T

In this case, the balanced reaction is:

2 NaN₃ → 2 Na + 3 N₂

You know the following about N₂:

P= 1.10 atm
V= 26.5 L
n=?

$R=0.082057 \frac{atm*L}{mol*K}$

T= 295 K

Replacing in the equation for ideal gas:

1.10 atm* 26.5 L= n* $0.082057 \frac{atm*L}{mol*K}$ *295 K

Solving:

$n=\frac{1.10 atm*26.5 L}{0.082057 \frac{atm*L}{mol*K} *295K}$

n= 1.2 moles

Now, the following rule of three can be applied: if 3 moles of N₂ are produced by stoichiometry of the reaction from 2 moles of NaN₃, 1.2 moles of N₂ are produced from how many moles of NaN₃?

$moles of NaN_{3}=\frac{1.2 molesofN_{2} *2 molesofNaN_{3} }{3 molesofN_{2} }$

moles of NaN₃= 0.8

Since the molar mass of sodium azide is 65.01 g / mol, then one last rule of three applies: if 1 mol has 65.01 grams of NaN₃, 0.8 mol how much mass does it have?

$mass of NaN_{3} =\frac{0.8 mol*65.01 grams}{1 mol}$

mass of NaN₃=52.008 grams

52.008 grams of sodium azide are needed to yield a volume of 26.5 L of nitrogen gas at a temperature of 295 K and a pressure of 1.10 atmospheres.

What happens to the energy that is lost when water freezes?

SVEN [57.7K]

As we know through the principle of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Therefore, the energy removed from the water in order to make it freeze is absorbed by the surroundings. This is why the surroundings in which freezing is taking place are below freezing. This is more easily illustrated in the example of condensation. If you were to hold a plate over a pot of boiling water, some of the water would give its energy to the plate and condense on its surface.
