Lack of employment and income opportunities are pushing large contingents of people to frontier areas and new economic activitie

s, such as gold mining, in the Amazonian region. The number of independent gold miners exceeded 200,000 by 1990. The mining process generates very dangerous and poisonous mercury pollution (mercury is used to separate the gold from other materials), and destroys aquatic and forest habitats. The local population whose diet depends on fish are now threatened by mercury poisoning, as are the miners themselves. –United Nations Research Institute for Social Development Read the text, then use the drop-down menus to complete the statements. People have turned to gold mining because of a lack of opportunities. The is dangerous because it generates mercury .

Two atoms that are isotopes of one another must have the same number of what? Electrons, All Particles, Protons, or Neutrons
emmainna [20.7K]

atoms are made of 3 types of sub atomic particles; neutrons, protons and electrons

atomic number is the number of protons which is characteristic for the element. Atoms of the same element have the same number of protons.

mass number is the sum of the neutrons and protons.

Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different mass numbers. since they are the same element number of protons are the same but number of neutrons vary.

therefore 2 isotopes are of the same element so they have the same number of protons.

Which of the following oils would consume the greatest number of equivalents of hydrogen when subject to catalytic hydrogenation
Murljashka [212]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When a fatty acid contains high number of double bonds then its unsaturation will also be high and hence, it will consume greater number of equivalents of hydrogen.

In corn oil, there are no unsaturated sites are present.

In olive oil, there is one unsaturated site with majority of oleic acid. In olive oil, there are more than 70% of total unsaturated oils.

In lard oil, there are around 60% of unsaturated oils.

In herring oil, there are highest number of saturated fatty acids and lowest polyunsaturated acids.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, olive oils would consume the greatest number of equivalents of hydrogen when subject to catalytic hydrogenation.

Which answer is a scientifically accurate description of velocity?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

B. The motorcyclist traveled southeast along a highway at 55 mph and reached the campsite in less than the two-hour estimated time.

Explanation:

<em>Velocity </em>is the rate at which an object changes position in a specific direction. It has both <em>magnitude and direction.</em>

Travelling <em>southeast</em> at <em>55 mph</em> is a <em>velocity</em>. It gives both speed and direction.

Statements A., B., and C. give the direction but not the speed.

A newly discovered element, Z, has two naturally occurring isotopes. 90.3 percent of the sample is an isotope with a mass of 267
kirill115 [55]
Ok so, remember that t<span>he average atomic mass is what is seen on the periodic table. It is the average mass of all of the isotopes with their frequency taken into account. What you need to do is add the products of the masses and frequencies Just like this:</span>

<span>0.903*267.8 + 0.097*270.9
When you add it the result is what you are looking for</span>

1. The most useful ore of aluminum is bauxite, in which Al is present as hydrated oxides, Al2O3⋅xH2O The number of kilowatt-hour
lianna [129]

*Answer:

Option A: 59.6

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of aluminium = 4.00 kg

The applied emf = 5.00 V

watts = volts * amperes

Step 2: Calculate amperes

equivalent mass of aluminum = 27 / 3 = 9  

mass of deposit = (equivalent mass x amperes x seconds) / 96500

4000 grams = (9* amperes * seconds) / 96500

amperes * seconds = 42888888.9

1 hour = 3600 seconds

amperes * hours = 42888888.9 / 3600 = 11913.6

amperes = 11913.6 / hours

Step 3: Calculate kilowatts

watts = 5 * 11913.6 / hours

watts = 59568 (per hour)

kilowatts = 59.6 (per hour)

The number of kilowatt-hours of electricity required to produce 4.00kg of aluminum from electrolysis of compounds from bauxite is 59.6 kWh when the applied emf is 5.00V
