Biodiversity has a fundamental value to humans because we are so dependent on it for our cultural, economic, and environmental well-being. Some argue that it is our moral responsibility to preserve the Earth’s incredible diversity for the next generation. Others simply like knowing that nature’s great diversity exists and that the opportunity to utilize it later, if need be, is secure. Scientists value biodiversity because it offers clues about natural systems that we are still trying to understand. Arguably, the greatest value to humans, however, comes from the ?ecosystem services? it provides.
Biodiversity forms the backbone of viable ecosystems on which we depend on for basic necessities, security, and health. By breaking down plant and animal matter, for example, insects and other invertebrates make nutrients available to plants and are integral to the carbon and nitrogen cycles. Other species pollinate crops, an essential service for farmers. Healthy ecosystems can mitigate or prevent flooding, erosion, and other natural disasters. These ecosystem services also play a hand in the functioning of our climate and in both air and water quality.
Molality
is one way of expressing concentration of a solute in a solution. It is expressed
as the mole of solute per kilogram of the solvent. To calculate for the
molality of the given solution, we need to convert the mass of solute into
moles and divide it to the mass of the solvent.
<span>
Moles of HCl = 5.5 g HCl ( 1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl ) = 0.1509 mol HCl</span>
<span>
Molality = 0.1509 mol HCl / 200 g C2H6O ( 1 kg / 1000 g )
Molality
= 0.7543 mol / kg</span>
<span>The concentration in molality of hcl in a solution that is prepared by dissolving 5.5 g of hcl in 200.0 g of c2h6o is
0.7453 molal.</span>
Answer:
yes the one that is circled is correct
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct answer is Pu, 234.
Explanation:
In the given case, let us consider the reactant as X. Now the mass number (balanced) on both the sides will be,
Mass of X = Mass of Molybdenum + Mass of Tin + Mass of neutrons
M = 1 * 103 + 1 * 131 + 2 * 0
M = 234
Now the atomic number (balanced) on both the sides,
Atomic number of X = Atomic number of Molybdenum + Atomic number of Tin + Atomic number of neutrons
A = 1*42 + 1*50 + 2*1
A = 94
The atomic number 94 is for the element Plutonium, whose symbol is Pu. Thus, the reactant is 234-Pu.
They function as catalysts, they transport and store other molecules such as oxygen, they provide mechanical support and immune protection, they generate movement, they transmit nerve impulses, and they control growth and differentiation
