Rainwater harvesting is the collection and storage of rain, rather than allowing it to run off. Rainwater is collected from a roof-like surface and redirected to a tank, cistern, deep pit, aquifer, or a reservoir with percolation. Dew and fog can also be collected with nets or other tools.

Predict the outcome of this reaction. Balancing doesn't matter. <br><br> Mg + H2O --&gt;
ELEN [110]

Answer:

MgO + H₂

Explanation:

The products of reaction is MgO  and hydrogen gas.

This is a single displacement reaction.

In this reaction, the possibility of the reaction is determined by position of the atoms on the activity series.

 Mg is higher than H on the activity series, so it is more reactive and it then displaces the hydrogen in water;

            Mg + H₂O → MgO + H₂

<h3>Answer:</h3>

4.3 miles

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

Distance of 22,704 feet

We are required to determine the number of miles in 22,704 feet

  • To convert one unit to another we use conversion factors
  • Therefore, we need to know the suitable conversion factor.
  • That is, 1 mile/5,280 feet
  • Thus, to determine the number of miles we multiply the number of feet with the conversion factor.

That is;

= 22,704 feet × 1 mile/5,280 feet

= 4.3 miles

Therefore, there are 4.3 miles in 22,704 feet

ASAPPP. Describe how you could determine the specific heat of a sample of a solid substance. You may
Allushta [10]

Answer:

I would use calorimetric to determine the specific heat and I would measure the mass of a sample

Explanation:

I would use calorimetry to determine the specific heat.

I would measure the mass of a sample of the substance.

I would heat the substance to a known temperature.

I would place the heated substance into a coffee-cup calorimeter containing a known mass of water with a known initial temperature.

I would wait for the temperature to equilibrate, then calculate temperature change.

I would use the temperature change of water to determine the amount of energy absorbed.

I would use the amount of energy lost by substance, mass, and temperature change to calculate specific heat.

What was the oxygen crisis
salantis [7]
The Great Oxidation Event (GOE), sometimes also called the Great Oxygenation Event, Oxygen Catastrophe, Oxygen Crisis, Oxygen Holocaust,[2] or Oxygen Revolution, was a time period when the Earth's atmosphere and the shallow ocean first experienced a rise in oxygen, approximately 2.4 billion years ago (2.4 Ga) to 2.1–2.0 Ga during the Paleoproterozoic era.[3] Geological, isotopic, and chemical evidence suggests that biologically produced molecular oxygen (dioxygen, O2) started to accumulate in Earth's atmosphere and changed Earth's atmosphere from a weakly reducing atmosphere to an oxidizing atmosphere,[4] causing many existing species on Earth to die out.[5] The cyanobacteria producing the oxygen caused the event which enabled the subsequent development of multicellular forms.
