Answer:

Snow is a better insulator than ice because snow contains air packets inside it and air is a good insulator of heat. Due to this, snow takes longer time to melt than the ice of the same mass.

Lakes can disappear due to?

stich3 [128]

Answer:

Lakes can vanish due to natural processes and human activity. Bacteria break down lake species' bodies and release nutrients into the water when they die. Eutrophication is the accumulation of nutrients in a lake over time. Lakes and rivers all throughout the world have dried up as a result of rising water demand and a warmer environment. Overpumping of aquifers and excessive diversion of water from rivers.

The radioactive isotope 210/84 Po decays by alpha emission.

yan [13]

The half-life of polonium-210, given that it decays from 98.3 micrograms to 12.3 micrograms in 414 days is 138 days

<h3>How to determine the number of half-lives </h3>

Original amount (N₀) = 98.3 micrograms
Amount remaining (N) = 12.3 micrograms
Number of half-lives (n) =?

2ⁿ = N₀ / N

2ⁿ = 98.3 / 12.3

2ⁿ = 8

2ⁿ = 2³

n = 3

<h3>How to determine the half life </h3>

Number of half-lives (n) = 3
Time (t) = 414 days
Half-life (t½) = ?

t½ = t / n

t½ = 414 / 3

t½ = 138 days

Based on formal charges, draw the most preferred Lewis structure for the chlorate ion, ClO3−. To add lone pairs, click the butto

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The structure is shown in the diagram.

Explanation:

Lewis structure : In order to draw Lewis structure we will calculate the total number of valence electrons in the molecule.

The valence electrons from Cl : 7

The valence electrons from O = 3 X 6 = 18

Charge negative so more electrons = 2

total electrons = 7 + 18 +2 = 27

Now we will distribute the electrons on each atom and in between atoms as shown in the diagram.

10. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2: M = 34 g mol-1) is a powerful oxidising agent that is used in concentrated solution in rocket fuel

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The molality of solution=12.605 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Molar mass of Hydrogen peroxide, M=34 g/mol

Density of solution, $\rho=1.11gcm^{-3}$

30% Means mass of solute (Hydrogen peroxide)=30 g

Mass of solvent =100-30=70 g

Total mass of solution, m=100 g

Number of moles of solute= $\frac{given\;mass}{molar\;mass}$

Using the formula

Number of moles of hydrogen peroxide= $\frac{30}{34}$

Now, molality of solution

$m=\frac{number\;of\;moles\;of\;solute}{mass\;of\;solvent}\times 1000$

$m=\frac{30}{70\times 34}\times 1000$

$m=12.605 m$

Hence, the molality of solution=12.605 m
