Particle size directly affects which of the following spil properties?

Chemistry
1 answer:
77julia77 [94]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The size of soil particles is important. The amount of open space between the particles influences how easily water moves through a soil and how much water the soil will hold. Too much clay, in proportion to silt and sand, causes a soil to take in water very slowly. Such a soil gives up its water to plants slowly.

How are Parkinson's disease and ALS similar?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

Both diseases affect the control of voluntary muscles.

Explanation:

Parkinson's disease is a progressive brain disease that affects movement. It affects the nerve cells that produce dopamine in the part of the brain called substantia nigra. The symptoms include shaking, stiffness, and difficulty with walking, balance, and coordination. Symptoms get worse with time, often leaving people with difficulty walking and talking.

ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) is a progressive nervous system disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. The first symptoms usually involve muscle weakness, and as the disease progresses, it results in the loss of muscle control.

Scientists don't know the exact cause of these diseases. As the cause is not known, there is no exact way to prevent them. There is no cure for them, either. The treatment is focused on the management of symptoms.

This is why the third option is the correct one.

grigory [225]

<u>Answer:</u> C) be hypertonic to Tank B.

<u>Explanation: </u>

<u> The ability of an extracellular solution to move water in or out of a cell by osmosis</u> is known as its tonicity. Additionally, the tonicity of a solution is related to its osmolarity, which is the <u>total concentration of all the solutes in the solution. </u>

Three terms (hypothonic, isotonic and hypertonic) are used <u>to compare the osmolarity of a solution with respect to the osmolarity of the liquid that is found after the membrane</u>.  When we use these terms, we only take into account solutes that can not cross the membrane, which in this case are minerals.

  1. If the liquid in tank A has a lower osmolarity (<u>lower concentration of solute</u>) than the liquid in tank B, the liquid in tank A would be hypotonic with respect to the latter.
  2. If the liquid in tank A has a greater osmolarity (<u>higher concentration of solute</u>) than the liquid in tank B, the liquid in tank A would be hypertonic with respect to the latter.
  3. If the liquid in tank A has the same osmolarity (<u>equal concentration of solute</u>) as the liquid in tank B, the liquid in tank A would be isotonic with respect to the latter.

In the case of the problem, option A is impossible because the minerals can not cross the membrane, since it is permeable to water only. There is no way that the concentration of minerals decreases in tank A, so <u>the solution in this tank can not be hypotonic with respect to the one in Tank B. </u>

Equally, both solutions can not be isotonic and neither we can say that the solution in tank A has more minerals that the one in tank B because the liquid present in tank B is purified water that should not have minerals. Therefore, <u>options B and D are also not correct.</u>

Finally, the correct option is C, since in the purification procedure the water is extracted from the solution in tank A to obtain a greater quantity of purified water in tank B. In this way, the solution in Tank A would be hypertonic to Tank B.

Consider the following ionization reaction.
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

According to Bronsted-Lowry, an acid is a proton donor while a base is a proton acceptor.

Hence, if we consider the reaction above, we will notice that for each base there is a conjugate acid and for each acid there is a conjugate base.

For the acid HNO3, its conjugate base is NO3^- while for the acid H3O^+, its conjugate base is H2O.

trapecia [35]

Answer:

Sand may be deposited as sediments that become sedimentary rocks after hardening, or lithifying. Extreme burial pressure, rising temperature at depth, and a lot of time, will transform just about any rock to become a metamorphic rock.
