Explanation:
Scientific evidences abound of the occurrence of plastic pollution, from mega- to nano-sized plastics, in virtually all matrixes of the environment. Apart from the direct effects of plastics and microplastics pollution such as entanglement, inflammation of cells and gut blockage due to ingestion, plastics are also able to act as vectors of various chemical contaminants in the aquatic environment. This paper provides a review of the association of plastic additives with environmental microplastics, how the structure and composition of polymers influence sorption capacities and highlights some of the models that have been employed to interpret experimental data from recent sorption studies. The factors that influence the sorption of chemical contaminants such as the degree of crystallinity, surface weathering, and chemical properties of contaminants. and the implications of chemical sorption by plastics for the marine food web and human health are also discussed. It was however observed that most studies relied on pristine or artificially aged plastics rather than field plastic samples for studies on chemical sorption by plastics.
A.) true
Because the rocks are formed near lava so the texture would be smooth
Answer:
109.7178g of H2O
Explanation:
First let us generate a balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:
2C3H8O + 9O2 —> 6CO2 + 8H2O
Next we will calculate the molar mass and masses of C3H8O and H20. This is illustrated below:
Molar Mass of C3H8O = (3x12.011) + (8x1.00794) + 15.9994 = 36.033 + 8.06352 + 15.9994 = 60.09592g/mol.
Mass of C3H8O from the balanced equation = 2 x 60.09592 = 120.19184g
Molar Mass of H2O = (2x1.00794) + 15.9994 = 2.01588 + 15.9994 = 18.01528g/mol
Mass of H2O from the balanced equation = 8 x 18.01528 = 144.12224g
From the equation,
120.19184g of C3H8O produced 144.12224g of H20.
Therefore, 91.5g of C3H8O will produce = (91.5 x 144.12224) /120.19184 = 109.7178g of H2O
Answer:
b
Explanation:
electrons lie in the orbits of the atom. they are negatively charged and they are very small in size. they have very less mass than proton. ele tron has 1/1840 mass of proton.
The by-product of the chlorination of an alkane is <u>HCl</u>
Explanation:
- Chlorination is the process of adding chlorine to drinking water to disinfect it and kill germs. Different processes can be used to achieve safe levels of chlorine in drinking water.
- Chlorination of alkane gives a mixture of different products.
- When consider mechanism of alkanes chlorination, free radicals are formed during the reaction to keep the continuous reaction.
- Different alkyl chloride compounds, extended carbon chains compounds and HCl are formed as products in product mixture.
- Chlorination byproducts, their toxicodynamics and removal from drinking water.
- Halogenated trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs) are two major classes of disinfection byproducts (DBPs) commonly found in waters disinfected with chlorine
- Chlorine is available as compressed elemental gas, sodium hypochlorite solution (NaOCl) or solid calcium hypochlorite (Ca(OCl)2
