Why has the acidity of the ocean increased over the years?

Chemistry
1 answer:
aalyn [17]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

I think it's A

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere whenever people burn fossil fuels. ... As the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere rises, the oceans absorb a lot of it. In the ocean, carbon dioxide reacts with seawater to form carbonic acid. This causes the acidity of seawater to increase.

How many chlorine atoms are there in 12.2 g of ccl4? How many chlorine atoms are there in 12.2 of ? 4.77×1022 atoms?
mash [69]

Answer:- 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms.

Solution:- We have been given the grams of carbon tetrachloride and asked to calculate the number of atoms of chlorine. It is a three step conversion problem. In the first we convert the grams of carbon tetrachloride to moles of it. In second step we convert moles of carbon tetrachloride to moles of chlorine and in the third step we convert the moles of chlorine to atoms of chlorine.

For grams to mole conversion we need the molar mass of the compound. Molar mass of carbon tetrachloride is 153.82 grams per mol. If we look at the formula of carbon tetrachloride then four chlorine are present in it. It means 1 mol of carbon tetrachloride has four moles of chlorine. The calculations are as follows:

12.2gCCl_4(\frac{1molCCl_4}{153.82gCCl_4})(\frac{4molCl}{1molCCl_4})(\frac{6.02*10^2^3Clatoms}{1molCl})

= 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms

So, there are 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms in 12.2 grams of CCl_4 .

If water were a linear (not bent) molecule like co2, electrostatic interactions between water molecules would be much weaker. wh
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer;

The partial negative charge on oxygen would stick out less and be less able to participate in hydrogen bonding.

Explanation;

Water is a polar molecule because the electrons are not shared equally, they're closer to the oxygen atom than the hydrogen.

-Normally, the water molecule is a bent shape because of the pair of lone electrons - they repulse each other and exert a compression to the hydrogen atoms at a slight 104º angle. It is a bent molecular geometry that results from tetrahedral electron pair geometry.

-The 2 lone electron pairs exerts a little extra repulsion on the two bonding hydrogen atoms to create a slight compression to a 104 degrees bond angle. Therefore, the water molecule is bent molecular geometry because the lone electron pairs.

Thus, If water were a linear molecule like co2, electrostatic interactions between water molecules would be much weaker, then the partial negative charge on oxygen would stick out less and be less able to participate in hydrogen bonding.

Which statement about AHf is true?
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

  • <u><em>It is positive when the bonds of the product store more energy than those of the reactants.</em></u>

Explanation:

The <em>standard enthalpy of formation</em>, <em>ΔHf</em>, is defined as the energy required to form 1 mole of a substance from its contituent elements under standard conditions of pressure and temperature.

Then, per defintion, when the elements are already at their standard states, there is not energy involved to form them from that very state; this is, the standard enthalpy of formation of the elements in their standard states is zero.

It is not zero for the compounds in its standard state, because energy should be released or absorbed to form the compounds from their consituent elements. Thus, the first choice is false.

When the bonds of the products store more energy than the those of the reactants, the difference is:

  • ΔHf =  ΔHf products - ΔHf reactants > 0, meaning that ΔHf is positive. Hence, the second statement is true.

Third is false because forming the compounds may require to use (absorb) or release (produce) energy, which means that ΔHf could be positive or negative.

Fourth statement is false, because the standard state of many elements is not liquid. For example, it is required to supply energy to iron to make it liquid. Thus, the enthalpy of formation of iron in liquid state is not zero.
