People mine zinc metal for use as an anticorrosive, skin protectant, and in electrical components. Zinc mining involves using ch

emicals to
remove the zinc from larger rocks. Demand for zinc increased over the past 35 years.
If the management of zinc mines stays the same, how will the increased demand for zinc most likely impact the environment?
O A. Global temperatures will rise because mining releases heat from Earth's Interior.
O B. Biodiversity will increase because mining speeds the release of Important minerals from rocks.
O C. The acidity of the surrounding soil and water will change because of the discharge of mine waste.
O D. Sea level will decrease substantially because the mining process requires substantial amounts of water

Option C.

Since chemicals are used in the mining of zinc, a rise in mining activity would lead to more chemicals being used, which would impact the soil and water around the mines.

What is the value of k, at 25 degrees Celsius
Dimas [21]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

298.15 K

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

W e are supposed to calculate the Value of K at 25°C

Assuming the value of K represent K, the question wants us to convert  degree Celsius to Kelvin.

  • To convert degrees Celsius to kelvin scale, we use the relationship;
  • Kelvin (K) = Degrees Celsius + 273.15 ; 273.5 is a constant
  • That is, to convert temperature from °C to Kelvin we add a constant of 273.15 to the °C given.

In this case;

Temperature is 273.15 °c

Thus, to Kelvin scale temperature will be;

= 25°C + 273.15

= 298.15 K

Therefore, the value of K, at 25°C is 298.15 K

In which region is the substance in both the solid phase and the liquid phase ?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:  Region 3

Explanation:  The temperature and time graph suggests that region 3 is the region in which the substance can co exist in both the phases that is solid phase and liquid phase.

Region 1 explains that the the solid has just started melting and there occurs a break point and then region 2 again explains that the solid is taking more time with temperature to get converted into the liquid and thus region 3 explains the equilibrium between the two phases.

The amount of water (density 1.00 g mL-1) in grams that must be added to 26.2 g of
Damm [24]

Answer:

1720.8g water are necessaries

Explanation:

Mass percent is defined as the mass of solute (In this case, MgCl2) in 100g of solution (Mass MgCl2 + Mass water). To solve this question we must find the mass of solution that we need to produce th 1.5% by mass solution. Thus, we can find the mass of water that we need as follows:

<em>Mass solution:</em>

26.2g MgCl2 * (100g Solution / 1.5g MgCl2) = 1747g solution

<em>Mass water:</em>

1747g solution - 26.2g MgCl2 = 1720.8g water are necessaries
