Gold potential is the correct answer
Answer: The annual emission rate of SO2 is 1.08 ×
kg/yr
Explanation:
- The rate <em>r</em> at which the coal is been burnt is 8.02 kg/s.
- Amount of sulphur in the burning coal is given as 4.40 %
i.e., 4.4/100 × 8.02 = 0.353 kg/s. Which is equivalent to the rate at which the sulphur is been burnt.
- Since the burning of sulphur oxidizes it to produce SO2, it follows that the non-oxidized portion of the sulphur will go with the bottom ash.
- The bottom ash is said to contain 2.80 % of the input sulphur.
- Hence the portion of the SO2 produced is 100 — 2.80 = 97.20 %.
- The rate of the SO2 produced is percentage of SO2 × rate at high sulphur is been burnt.
= 97.20/100 × 0.353 kg/s.
= 0.343 kg/s.
- To get the annual emission rate of SO2, we convert the kg/s into kg/yr.
1 kg/s = 1 kg/s × (60 × 60 × 24 × 365) s/yr
1 kg/s = 31536000 kg/yr
- Therefore, 0.343 kg/s = 0.343 × 31536000 kg/yr
= 10816848 kg/yr
= 1.08 × 10^7 kg/yryr.
Answer:
accretion at convergent boundaries
Explanation:
A neutral carbon doesn't lack any electrons. It has exactly the same number of electrons as it has neutrons.
However, it has four electrons in its outer shell in comparison with eight electrons for a noble gas.
In that sense, it needs four electrons to complete its second shell.<span />
