Logging may cause the soil to be less compact and the loose dirt will enter and contaminate any water source.

Have a nice day!

Answer Choices :

A: The removal of trees does not affect our fresh water supply.

B: Tree roots actually help absorb some chemicals, which prevents them from entering our fresh water supply.

C: Fewer trees increases absorption of water and other chemicals into the groundwater supply.

D: Fewer trees increases erosion, which adds more sediment to our fresh water supply.

Now Mr.Josh-Ray Says "Logging may cause the soil to be less compact and the loose dirt will enter and contaminate any water source."

Meaning - The Loose Dirt Contains Particles Are Contaminating Clean Water Sources.

D - Fewer trees increases erosion, which adds more sediment to our fresh water supply.

Therefore Mr.Josh Is Correct

"D" IS CORRECT ON PLATO.

What are the merits of Mendeleev's periodic table?

german

Answer:

This law states that the physical and chemical properties of the elements are the periodic function of their atomic masses. This means that when the elements are arranged in the order of their increasing atomic masses, the elements with similar properties recur at regular intervals.

An ice cube and a scoop of table salt are left outside on a warm sunny day. explain why the ice cube melts and the salt does not

Anna11 [10]

The melting point of ice is 0 degrees Celcius, which means it exists as a liquid for any temperatures above 0 degrees. The melting point of salt is approximately 800 degrees Celcius, which is way greater than the melting point of ice. This means that for temperatures below 800 degrees, salt exists as a solid.

The temperature of the area where they were placed we can assume was somewhere between 0 and 800 degrees, greater than the melting point of ice but less than the melting point of salt. This why the ice melted but the salt did not.

I hope this helps!

1. Calculate the number of moles of carbon dioxide formed when 40.0 moles of oxygen is consumed in the burning of propane. Note

Andrews [41]

Answer:

1. D (24.0 moles CO2)

2. A (.239 moles H2)

Explanation:

1. First Balance the equation

1 C3H8 + 5 O2 ---> 3 CO2 + 4 H2O

Then set up a stoiciometric equation so that the moles of O2 cancel out

40mol O2 x $\frac{3 mole CO2}{5 mole O2}$ = 24.0 moles CO2

2. Set up a stoichiometric equation

10 grams Fe x $\frac{1 mole Fe}{55.85 grams Fe}$ x $\frac{4 mole H2}{3 mole Fe}$ = 0.239 moles H2

An aqueous solution of potassium carbonate combine with a solution of calcium nitrate.

Charra [1.4K]

This is an example of a double replacement or precipitation reaction. The solutions of potassium carbonate and calcium nitrate both contain dissolved ions so they will appear as clear, colorless solutions. When the two solutions are combined the calcium ions will combine with the carbonate ions to form an insoluble precipitate, which will appear as a white cloudiness. Potassium ions and nitrate ions will remain dissolved in the solution. They're called "spectator ions" because they're present as both reactants and products - they don't participate in the chemical reaction.
