What is the difference between unconfined aquifers and confined aquifers?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Marta_Voda [28]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Unconfined aquifers are those into which water seeps from the ground surface directly above the aquifer. Confined aquifers are those in which an impermeable dirt/rock layer exists that prevents water from seeping into the aquifer from the ground surface located directly above.

An electrode has a potential of 1.201 V with respect to a saturated silver-silver chloride electrode. What would the electrodes
fredd [130]

Answer:

The potential wrt. calomel is 1.254 V

Explanation:

Given:

Potential wrt. silver chloride E_{Ag}  = 1.201 V

Potential wrt. saturated silver chloride E = 0.197 V

Potential wrt. SCE E_{Hg} = 0.241 V

Now potential wrt. hydrogen is given by,

   = 1.201- 0.197

   = 1.004 V

And we find for potential wrt. calomel,

   = potential wrt. hydrogen + potential wrt. SEC

   = 1.004 +0.241

   = 1.254 V

Therefore, the potential wrt. calomel is 1.254 V

How many joules of energy are made by the loss of 100kg of mass using the formula E=mc2? please help!!!
asambeis [7]

Answer:

E = 3 × 10¹⁰ J

Explanation:

Mass, m = 100 kg

We need to find energy made by the loss of 100 kg of mass. The formula between the mass and energy is given by :

E = mc²

Where c is speed of light

Putting all the values, we get :

E = 100 kg × (3×10⁸ m/s)²

= 3 × 10¹⁰ J

So, the required energy is 3 × 10¹⁰ J.

The average propane cylinder for a residential grill holds approximately 18 kg of propane. how much energy (in kj) is released b
Angelina_Jolie [31]
Let's begin with the basic values  that will be used in the solution.

The formula of propane is C3H8. It is an alkane, a hydrocarbon with the general formula of CnH2n+2. Notice that hydrocarbons have only Carbon and Hydrogen atoms. Its molar mass (M) is 44 g.

Molar Mass Calculation is done as like that
C=12 g/mol, H=1 g/mol. 1 mole propane has 3 moles Carbon atoms and 8 mole Hydrogen atoms. M(
C3H8)= 3*12+ 8*1= 44 g

Combustion reaction of hydrocarbons gives carbon dioxide and water by releasing energy. That energy is called as enthalpy of combustion (
ΔHc°).  

ΔHc° of propane equals -2202.0 kj/mol. Burning of 1 mole C3H8 releases 2202 kj energy. Minus sign only indicates that the energy is given out ( an exothermic reaction ).

Let's write the combustion reaction.
C3H8 + O2 ---> CO2 + H20 (unbalanced) 
ΔHc° = -2202 kj/mol

Now, we calculate mole of 20 kg propane. Convert kilogram into gram since we use molar mass is defined in grams.
mole=mass/molar mass ; n=m/M ; n= 20000 g /44 (g/mol)=454 mole

1 mole propane releases 2202 kj energy.
454 mole propane release 2202 kj *454= 1000909 kj

The answer is 1000909 kj.

Which element would you expect to be more metallic?<br> (a) Ca or Rb (b) Mg or Ra (c) Br or I
svlad2 [7]

Explanation:

When we move across a period from left to right then there will occur an increase in electronegativity and also there will occur an increase in non-metallic character of the elements.

As calcium (Ca) is a group 2A element and rubidium (Rb) is a group 1A element. Hence, Rb being an alkali metal is more metallic in nature than calcium (alkaline earth metal).

Both magnesium (Mg) and radium (Ra) are group 2A elements. And, when we move down a group then as the size of element increases so, it becomes easy of the metal atom to lose an electron.

As a result, there occurs an increase in metallic character of the element. Hence, Radium (Ra) is more metallic in nature than magnesium (Mg).

Also, both bromine and iodine are group 17 elements. Since, both of them are non-metals and non-metallic character increases on moving down the group.

Therefore, bromine (Br) is more metallic than iodine.
