What is a cone of depression and how is it caused?

A cone of depression occurs in an aquifer when groundwater is pumped from a well. In an unconfined aquifer (water table), this is an actual depression of the water levels. In confined aquifers (artesian), the cone of depression is a reduction in the pressure head surrounding the pumped well.

When a well is pumped, the water level in the well is lowered. By lowering this water level, a gradient occurs between the water in the surrounding aquifer and the water in the well. Because water flows from high to low water levels or pressure, this gradient produces a flow from the surrounding aquifer into the well.

As the water flows into the well, the water levels or pressure in the aquifer around the well decrease. The amount of this decline becomes less with distance from the well, resulting in a cone-shaped depression radiating away from the well. This, in appearance, is similar to the effect one sees when the plug is pulled from a bathtub. This conical-shaped feature is the cone of depression.

Answer:

Depression can be caused by many things, like being neglected, abused, or even trauma. Even thoughts that might trigger sadness, or anxiety it's caused by alot of problems of your life or others around you

Explanation:

hope this helps a bit :)

I NEED THIS FOR EXAM
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Occurs in substances that have at least one non-metal

Explanation:

The overlapping sets which is denoted by the region B is best attributed to connote with the choice "occurs in substance that have at least one non-metal".

To form an ionic bond, a metal and a non-metal must exchange electrons in order to an electrostatic attraction to occur.

In the case of covalent bonds, non-metals shares their valence electrons to form a bond by attaining an octet configuration.

So, we see that a pre-requisite for both bonds to form is a minimum of the presence of a non-metal.

Metal carbonates decompose to the metal oxide and CO2 on heating according to this general equation. Mx(CO3)is) → My(s) + yCO2(g
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

84.11 g/mol

Explanation:

A metal from group 2A will form the cation M²⁺, and the ion carbonate is CO₃²⁻, so the metal carbonate must be: MCO₃, and the reaction:

MCO₃(s) → MO(s) + CO₂(g)

For the stoichiometry of the reaction, 1 mol of MCO₃(s) will produce 1 mol of CO₂. Using the ideal gas law, it's possible to calculate the number of moles of CO₂:

PV = nRT , where P is the pressure, V is the volume(0.285 L), R is the gas constant (62.36 mmHg*L/mol*K), n is the number of moles, and T is the temperature (25 + 273 = 298 K).

69.8*0.285 = n*62.36*298

18583.28n = 19.893

n = 0.00107 mol

So, the number of moles of the metal carbonate is 0.00107. The molar mass is the mass divided by the number of moles:

0.0900/0.00107 = 84.11 g/mol
