Answer:
d) cut the large sized Cu solid into smaller sized pieces
Explanation:
The aim of the question is to select the right condition for that would increases the rate of the reaction.
a) use a large sized piece of the solid Cu
This option is wrong. Reducing the surface area decreases the reaction rate.
b) lower the initial temperature below 25 °C for the liquid reactant, HNO3
Hugher temperatures leads to faster reactions hence this option is wrong.
c) use a 0.5 M HNO3 instead of 2.0 M HNO3
Higher concentration leads to increased rate of reaction. Hence this option is wrong.
d) cut the large sized Cu solid into smaller sized pieces
This leads to an increased surface area of the reactants, which leads to an increased rate of the reaction. This is the correct option.
Answer:
Weathering, Erosion
Explanation:
Plants and animals can be agents of mechanical weathering. The seed of a tree may sprout in soil that has collected in a cracked rock. As the roots grow, they widen the cracks, eventually breaking the rock into pieces. Over time, trees can break apart even large rocks.
Tree root systems have a handful of large roots that branch out into a network of smaller roots that often extend out far beyond their branches do. These root systems prevent erosion by holding the soil in place and improving drainage which helps water get absorbed into the soil instead of just running over the top.
Hope this helps

Answer:
Explanation:
Given parameters:
pH = 3.50
Unknown:
concentration of [H₃0⁺] = ?
concentration of [OH⁻] = ?
Solution:
In order to find the unknown, we use some simple expressions which best explains the pH scale and the equilibrium systems of aqueous solutions.
pH = -log₁₀[H₃O⁺]
[H₃O⁺] = inverse log₁₀ (-pH) =
= 
[H₃O⁺] = 3.2 x 10⁻⁴moldm⁻³
For the [OH⁻]:
we use : pOH = -log₁₀ [OH⁻]
Recall: pOH + pH = 14
pOH = 14 - pH = 14 - 3.5 = 10.5
Now we plug the value of pOH into pOH = -log₁₀ [OH⁻]
[OH⁻] = 
[OH⁻] =
= 3.2 x 10⁻¹¹moldm⁻³
The solution is acidic as the concentration of H₃0⁺ is more than that of the OH⁻ ions.
Explanation:
Lactic acid is formed during the breakdown of glucose. This is sometimes called "blood sugar."
