Why Are aquifers important to our freshwater supply? 5TH GRADE ANSWER c:

Chemistry
1 answer:
ANEK [815]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Aquifers are porous and permeable formations that stores ground water. The ground water system is made up of mostly fresh water.

  • An aquifer acts as a reserve for ground water in the environment.
  • By passing through different formations, water that recharges them are purified.
  • This makes them fresh and mostly free from salt intrusion

An aquifer is able to store this fresh water and it is is good prospect for sourcing ground water.

As you move from left to right across a period, what happens to the atomic radil?
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Moving Across a Period

Moving from left to right across a period, the atomic radius decreases. The nucleus of the atom gains protons moving from left to right, increasing the positive charge of the nucleus and increasing the attractive force of the nucleus upon the electrons

What makes slime, slime?
Naya [18.7K]
Slime flows like a liquid, but unlike familiar liquids (e.g., oil, water), its ability to flow, or viscosity, is not constant. So it's a fluid, but not a regular liquid. Scientists call a material that changes viscosity a non-Newtonian fluid. The technical explanation is that slime is a fluid that changes its ability to resist deformation according to shear or tensile stress.

What this means is, when you pour slime or let it ooze through your fingers, it has a low viscosity and flows like a thick liquid. When you squeeze a non-Newtonian slime, like oobleck, or pound it with your fist, it feels hard, like a wet solid. This is because applying stress squeezes the particles in the slime together, making it hard for them to slide against each other.

Most types of slime are also examples of polymers. Polymers are molecules made by linking together chains of subunits.


The specifics of how a type of slime works depends on its chemical composition, but the basic explanation is that chemicals are mixed to form polymers. The polymers act as a net, with molecules sliding against each other.


Two solutions are combined to make classic slime. One is diluted school glue, or polyvinyl alcohol in water. The other solution is borax (Na2B4O7.10H2O) in water.
Borax dissolves in water into sodium ions, Na+, and tetraborate ions.
The tetraborate ions react with water to produce the OH- ion and boric acid:
B4O72-(aq) + 7 H2O <—> 4 H3BO3(aq) + 2 OH-(aq)
Boric acid reacts with water to form borate ions:
H3BO3(aq) + 2 H2O <— > B(OH)4-(aq) + H3O+(aq)
Hydrogen bonds form between the borate ion and the OH groups of the polyvinyl alcohol molecules from the glue, linking them together to form a new polymer: slime.

Pablo's experiments confirm the relationship between pressure and the number of gas molecules. as the pressure in a system incre
horrorfan [7]
The correct answer is:  [C]:  
___________________________________________________________
          "<span>pressure and the number of gas molecules are directly related."
___________________________________________________________
<u>Note</u>:  The conclusion was: "</span> as the pressure in a system increases, the number of gas molecules increases" — over the course of many trials.
          This means that the "pressure" and the "number of gas molecules" are directly related.

Furthermore, this conclusion is consistent with the "ideal gas law" equation:

     " PV = nRT " ; 
____________________________________________________________
in which:

    "P = Pressure" ; 
    "n = number of gas molecules" ; 
___________________________________________________________
        All other factors held equal, when "n" (the "number of gas molecules") 
 increases in value (on the "right-hand side" of the equation), the value for "P" (the "pressure" — on the "left-hand side" of the equation), increases.
