Answer:

Decantation

Explanation:

Decantation is one of the process of separating mixture containing solid and liquid. In this process, gravity plays a very important role. The solid part of the mixture is allowed to settle down. The liquid is removed and separated in another container. It is a process that helps in the purification of the liquid. The particles that are insoluble settles down and is further subject to be separated from the mixture.

Answer:

The bowling ball has more kinetic energy than the tennis ball

Explanation:

Using the formula 1/2 mass × acceleration we found that the tennis ball had a kinetic energy of 0.75 while the bowling ball had a kinetic energy of 10.5 hence the bowling ball has the ability to do more work

Las Vegas, Nevada is in a desert. How does its rapid population growth affect the

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Many areas of the United States experience explosive population growth. The more people that reside someplace, the more demand there is for water there. Often these urban-growth expansions are unplanned and place extraordinary stress on the water supply system, mainly on the groundwater. The stress often depletes groundwater supply, thereby causing wells to dry up. Then water must be brought from somewhere else to support the local population.

Such situations have occurred all over the United States. For example, increased population growth in the southwestern United States has significantly lowered the water table 50 to 200 feet (depending on the area) since the 1940s. Managing urban growth, efforts to reduce water demand, conservation of the resource, and attempts to increase the water supply all address the problem of exceeding water resource limits.

Human activities affect groundwater quality.

Here are some sources and possible solutions to groundwater pollution:

Agriculture—Reduce usage of pesticides and fertilizers.

Landfills—Monitor for leakage and repair linings.

Underground storage tanks—Remove damaged and unused tanks.

Household wastes—Properly dispose of household hazardous waste.

Septic tank leaks—Properly maintain and repair tanks.

Use the Nernst equation to calculate the concentration of the unknown solution. Base this on your experimental voltage of 1.074

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

0.3793 M

Explanation:

The unknown metal is zinc. So the equation of the reaction is;

Zn(s) + Cu^2+(aq) -------> Zn^2+(aq) + Cu(s)

From Nernst equation;

E = E° - 0.0592/n log Q

[Cu2+] = 0.050179 M

n = 2

[Zn^2+] = ?

E = 1.074 V

E° = 0.34 - (-0.76) = 1.1 V

Substituting values;

1.074 = 1.1 - 0.0592/2 log [Zn^2+]/0.050179

1.074 - 1.1 = - 0.0592/2 log [Zn^2+]/0.050179

-0.026 = -0.0296 log [Zn^2+]/0.050179

-0.026/-0.0296 = log [Zn^2+]/0.050179

0.8784 =log [Zn^2+]/0.050179

Antilog(0.8784) = [Zn^2+]/0.050179

7.558 = [Zn^2+]/0.050179

[Zn^2+] = 7.558 * 0.050179

[Zn^2+] = 0.3793 M

Column A 1. Reproduction: Reproduction 2. offspring: offspring 3. gamete: gamete 4. Budding: Budding 5. Binary fission: Binary f

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

1. Reproduction: One or two parents, organisms make new offspring

2. Offspring: A new living organism

3. Gamete: female and male create mini-me by cell division

4. Budding: Hydra

5. Binary fission: Bacteria

6. Zygote: The original cell after egg cell and sperm cell join

7. Fragmentation/Regeneration: Sea star / Planarian

8. Mitosis: Healling and growth occurs in budding

9. Meiosis: Egg or sperm cell/ specialized cells

Explanation:

1. Reproduction is the process by which organisms make new offspring either sexually (involving two parents) or asexually (involving one parent only).

2. An Offspring is a new living organism

3. A gamete is a mature sexual reproductive cell, as a sperm or egg, that unites with another cell to form a new organism. It formed from female and male parents by cell division known as meiosis

4. Budding is a form of asexual reproduction in which a new offspring grows out from a part of the parent. It occurs in Hydra.

5. Biinary fission is a form of asexual reproduction which involves a separation of the parent into two new offspring. It commonly occurs in Bacteria

6. Zygote is the original cell formed after egg cell and sperm cell fuse.

7. Fragmentation/Regeneration: this is a form of reproduction in which a parent splits into fragments which are then able to develop into new organisms. It occurs in Sea star and Planarians

8. Mitosis is a form of cell division which a cell divides into two identical daughter cells with the same genetic components as the parent cell. It functions in healing and growth as well as in budding

9. Meiosis is a type of cell division that results in the production of sex cells or gametes. The number of chromosomes in the parent cell is halved and four gamete cells are produced. Egg or sperm cell/ specialized cells are produced by meiosis.
