<span>One example of bacteria that live in an extreme environment are the thermophilic species that live in the hot springs of Yellowstone National Park. Thermophilic means heat-loving and the waters in which these bacteria live can rise above 70 degrees Celcius after being heated by lava below the surface. Most life would die at that temperature however some bacteria have evolved to survive the extreme heat.</span>
Answer:
Advantage: Hydropower is a fueled by water, so it's a clean fuel source.
Advantage: It is a domestic source of energy in the US.
Disadvantage: Fish populations can be impacted if fish cannot migrate upstream past impoundment dams to spawning grounds or if they cannot migrate downstream to the ocean.
Disadvantage: Hydropower plants can be impacted by drought. When water is not available, the hydropower plants can't produce electricity.
Explanation:
The pOH of a solution is the negative logarithm of the hydroxide-ion concentration.
Answer:
The molecules of ammonia will effuse 1.28 times faster than carbon monoxide.
Explanation:
The kinetic molecular theory tells us that
Vrms = √(3RT/MW) where vrms is the root mean square velocity of an ideal gas
So vrms is inversely proportional to MW and so will be the rate of effusion. Comparing ammonia and co we have:
rate (NH3)/rate(CO) = √MWCO/√MWNH3 = √28.01/√17.03 = 1.28
rate(NH3) = 1.28 rate CO
