Answer:

the exothermic reaction.

Explanation:

The combustion releases heat out to the surroundings (outside the reaction vessel), so the entropy of the surroundings also increases due to thermal energy release. if it is correct make me as brainliest

6.07 grams is the theoretical yield of calcium phosphate (Ca₃(PO₄)₂).

<h3>How we calculate mass from moles?</h3>

Mass of any substance can be calculated by using moles as:

n = W/M, where

W = required mass

M= molar mass

Given chemical reaction is:

3Ca(NO₃)₂ + 2Na₃PO₄ → 6NaNO₃ + Ca₃(PO₄)₂

From the stoichiometry it is clear that:

3 moles of Ca(NO₃)₂ = produce 1 mole of Ca₃(PO₄)₂

Given mass of Ca(NO₃)₂ = 96.1g

Mole of Ca(NO₃)₂ = 96.1g/164g/mol = 0.5859moles

So, 0.5859 moles of Ca(NO₃)₂ = produce 0.5859×1/3 = 0.0196 moles of Ca₃(PO₄)₂

Required mass of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ will be calculated by using moles as:

W = 0.0196mole × 310g/mole = 6.07 grams

Hence, 6.07 grams is the theoretical yield of calcium phosphate.

In the so called rain shadow effect we have interaction between all of the four major Earth spheres. When we have a coastal region where there's a high mountain range, the part of the mountain that is facing the sea will differ a lot from the part of the mountain that is on the other side. The water from the sea evaporates. The water vapor makes the air wet. The warm and wet air masses from the sea will come to the coastline, once they reach the mountain they will start to accumulate as they can not pass through it. As they accumulate rainfall appears. The rainfall contributes to a lush vegetation on this side of the mountain (windward side). The rain shadow effect appears on the leeward side of the mountain, and it mostly gets dry, strong, downward winds. These conditions result in drier climate, much less vegetation, and much increased erosion. Thus we can easily see that we have in this case interaction between the hydrosphere (the sea and the rainfall), the geosphere (the ground, soil, rocks), biosphere (the vegetation), and atmosphere (the winds, the clouds).
