What is the 10% rule? What is its significance? Why is energy lost?

Chemistry
1 answer:
TEA [102]3 years ago
4 0
The 10% rule means that approximately there will be only 10% energy transferred from a trophic level into another. That was because the consumer on the upper level will use the energy before it was consumed. About 90% of the energy used so only 10% remain will be transferred.
Example: an antler eating grass with a total 100 calories. Then the antler is moving and growing, using 90 calories. Then a lion eats the antler, but the energy remains is only 10 calorie because 90 calories are already used.

If 6.02*10^23 molecules of ammonia react with 12.04*10^23 molecules of hydrogen chloride, how many molecules are in the reaction
Helen [10]

Answer:

18.06 × 10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Add the two amounts of molecules together.

6.02 × 10²³  +  12.04 × 10²³  =  18.06 × 10²³

You will have 18.06 × 10²³ molecules in the vessel when the reaction is complete.  This is because of the Law of Conservation of Mass.  Mass is neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions.  You will have the exact number of molecules in the reaction vessel as you did in the beginning.  The types of molecules may change, but the number will stay the same.

The doctor ordered 750ml of a 15 percent solution. the stock solution is 50 percent. how much stock solution and diluent are nee
garik1379 [7]
The doctor required a 15% 750mL solution. To lower the concentration of the solution, you have to add more diluting liquid. 

750mL * 0.15 = 112.5mL. This 112.5mL signifies the pure chemical or compound in the solution. This 112.5mL can be taken from the stock solution.

112.5 * 2 = 250mL of stock solution would be needed and 500 mL of the diluting agent should be added. Adding the two together would result to a 750mL solution of 15% concentration.
